Transcripts For CNNW CNN Newsroom With Brooke Baldwin 20171011

Burning. And this couple, charles and sara rippey, married for 75 years, mr. Rippey a world war ii veteran, they were killed inside their napa home while trying to escape. Charles was 100. His wife 98. And their son says his father died trying to save the love of his life. We often talk among each other about, you know, how either one of them would deal with life without the other. And we always we were definitely not looking forward to the day when the first one died and the other one had to go on alone, especially my father. He loved my mother and called her the queen right up until the end. Yeah. And, you know, we can see by where they found his body, that he was trying to get from his room to her room. He nerve maver made it. And even if he had gotten there, and couldnt get her out, she just couldnt move well at all. Will was no way he would have left. And through all of this, we still dont know how the fires started. Ryan young cnn National Correspondent on the ground there in santa rosa where the biggest fire, tubbs fire has wiped out this area. Ryan ive looked up the tv seeing you. Its like a movie set, but it is so entirely real. Hearing about the 100 and 98 year old is gut wrenching. Reporter its unreal. You love love and to hear they were together for 75 years and hear their son talking about that, thats heartbreaking. Weve been attached ourselves. 75 years of marriage, and look at all thes destruction, this looks like a war zone, someone dropped a bomb in it. And we have been talking to people, the gentleman just got in his truck, this he it were in the house with their family, and at some point they realized the fire was coming and had to go. As pulling out of there the embers coming down and houses started to fall. We keep hearing stories of survival all over the place. One man saying his dog woke him up in the middle of the night. No warning. And thats how they were able to escape. And they keep asking about neighbors. They want to know if their neighbors survived. You talk about the death toll. 17 people so far have died in this. And whats worse is i dont know if you can hear it, but the wind is starting to pick up again, which is not great for the firefighters who have been battling this nonstop. In fact, we just had two units of firefighters come through this area to check it out. When you look at this neighborhood, 8,000 people used to live here. It does not look like 8,000 people used to live in this neighborhood. We have been trying to figure out where the houses start and stop. The chimneys and the trees are really whats all thats left behind. Somehow these trees stood the test of time here. 20,000 people have evacuated. So when you look at these numbers and think about the human impact, its unbelievable that they are still dealing with the devastation. Its like for weeks we were talking about hurricane ravaged homes, right, and Walking Around with flooded with water. And now here you have fire. Ryan young, thank you so much. I am so glad you are there. Well come back to you. Speaking of dogs barking and saving lives with fires quickly encroaching, my next guest says she lost everything. Escaped with their lives a few personal belongings and a test. What is your viefd is statue of virgin mary standing in the front yard. Margaret joins me on the phone. Thank you so much for meeting being here. I know this was your parents home. Had a special place in your heart. How are your parents . Hand i understand it was their dog yapping early in the morning that got them out . Hey, brooke,thanks so much for having me. Yeah, so, basically what happened is around 2 00 a. M. My parents dog named brady started women perring and woke my parents up. And when they woke up they smelled very intense smoke. So my dad ran to the front door, opened the front door, he said that it looked like a bomb went off. He thought that north korea had dropped a bomb on us. He said the sky was just red and orange and glowing. And there were pieces of embers just every where, and there was smoke. He couldnt see a couple feet in front of him. The wind was going maybe 60mileperhour. He said it looked like we were at war. And thank god for my dog for waking them up. Because who knows what would have happened if they got out of the house later. But im grateful they are alive and both got out safe. And my two dogs are fine too. Its devastating and sad to see whats happened to my familys house and the neighborhood. But im just trying to stay as positive and optimistic as i can. Had it not been for the dog, i had read, margaret that your mom had initially woken up and thought the neighbors were barbecuing and went back to sleep. Yeah, she feels so guilty and sad because she feels like if she would have woken up at midnight when she initially smelled everything, that she could have done so much more. But i keep telling hershey cant think like that. But she did wake up at midnight and say she smelled something and thought it was the neighbors. Because our neighbors barbecue all the time. Or thought was burning a fire in their fireplace. She never in a million years would have thought a fire was coming and was going through the neighborhood. Nobody would have thought that. But she was half asleep so she just went back to sleep. Anyone in a drowsy state of mind would have thought the same thing. Thank gadness for the dogs. Im so glad you and your parents are okay. Margaret, im going to thank you for now. Well move along and talk about north korea. Heres braking news on this, heres a quote, he lit the wick of war. Aimed directly at President Trump. The countrys foreign minister reacting to the president s september speech to the u. N. General assembly calling it bellicose, insane, and north korea will not keep america unfinished. With that, next with me is jeffrey lewis. The line lit the wick of war what does that say to you . Whats the signal they are sending . Its terrifying. I think what they are trying to say is they are not stopping. Both the president and kim jongun like to swear at each other. Playing the same game. Yeah, they love this. So this is going to go back and forth with the rest of us held hostage. In addition to lit the wick war, the other line from this foreign minister out of north korea is they believe their country is winning the rhetoric war. Yeah, ive got a weird job. I read a lot of communist propaganda from the past and today. And one of the north korea say is so interesting frightened dog bar barks loudest. Reason hes threatening them is he doesnt know what to do. So in the weird way this rewards them by giving them what they want. And its anyones guess how this plays out. Its this back and forth between the two countries. Let me move on and talk about cnn is also reporting north korean hackers have stole ten warplanes. Says hacked classified documents, and decapitate the northern leadership. How serious is the breach . Its hard to know what they got their hands on. But i think the bottom line that is the most disturbing about all of this is the fact that our war plan is to try to kill kim jongun before he gives the order to use Nuclear Weapons. If you think about what that means, kim jongun is going to have itchy trigger, so he gets his hands on documents that thats true, i think he may worry were trying to take him out and may go first. Potential breach, which isnt surprising, they say we are confident in the operation plans and ability to deal with any threat from north korea. Do we know if the hacker, does it come from within north korea . Its actually really unclear. The way that this surfaced was through a south korea legislature, and they say the darn es things. Darn thing to say. Heck of a thing to say. This is a situation to find ourselves in. I dont think will is any question in the war the United States is going to win. But the question is what will the cost be . So to the extent the north koreans get information, thats a bad thing. I know kim jongun is entirely unpredictable and thats part of pyongyang. But what do you think hes thinking with all this . Well, look, i think hes worried about his own skin. He doesnt want to end up like saddam hussein. So i think he feels pretty good right now. He has been able to test a thermal Nuclear Weapon and an icbm that he thinks can hit the United States. And has president talking about him. If you were kim jongun you are thinking this is going all right for me. Thats a little scary. Jeffrey lewis, thank you on all things north korea. Coming up, eminem unleashing a tirade against President Trump. So what does he think of the artist known as slim shady . Donald trump is telling you right now, slim shady is a winner. That was a video blast from the past. Al also ahead, boy scouts of america saying they are welcoming girl scouts. And Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visiting the white house.

We are with a friend of mine Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Appreciate it. We are discussing many things, including nafta, but we have discussions scheduled for quite a few subjects. And i think we both very much look forward. And i want to tell you justin great honor to have you both with us. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Great to be back here in the oval office. As the president said a lot of things to discuss. We have an incredibly close relationship. Two countries that are interwoven in our economies and cultures and in our peoples, but we have a good partnership, and there is always ways to improve it. Always issues we need to talk through. Thats why strg an ungoing constructive relationship between the president and the Prime Minister is really important. And im glad to be able to meet with you here again today. Translator . [ inaudible question ] well see what happens. We have a tough negotiation. And it is something that youll know in the not too distant future. But well be discussing nafta and defense. Because we have a great these are great allies and mutual defense is very important. And i guess well be talking about mutual oftfense but peopl dont talk about. But we have certainly things to talk about but nafta will be a big factor today. [ inaudible question ] no, i never discussed increasing it. I want it in perfect shape. That was fake news by nbc, which gives a lot of fake news lately. No, i never discussed. I think someone said i want ten times the puck lar weapons we have right now. Right now we have so many Nuclear Weapons i want them in perfect condition, perfect shape. Thats the only thing hive discussed. General mattis put out a statement or is putting out a statement saying that that was fake news, that it was just mentioned that way. And its frankly disgusting the way the press is able to write whatever they want to write. And people should look into it. No, i want to have absolutely perfectly maintained, which we are in the process of doing, nuclear force. But when they said i want ten times what we have right now, its totally unnecessary, believe me. Because i know, i know what we have right now. [ inaudible question ] we wont need an increase. But i want modernization and i want total rehabilitation. Its got to be in tiptop shape. [ inaudible question ] well, i dont think anything changed. We are negotiating a nafta deal. Its time, after all of these years, and well see what happens. Its possible we wont be able to make a deal and its possible that we will. We have a great personal relationship. And we have a relationship now as two countries, i think, thats as close as ever. But well see if we can do the kind of changes that we need. We have to protect our workers. And in all fairness the Prime Minister wants to protect canadicanada and the people too. But ive been with nafta, i said wed renegotiate. And i think justin understands this, if we cant make a deal, it will be terminated and that will be fine. Theyll do well. Well do well. Maybe that wont be necessary but it has to be fair to both countries. [ inaudible question ] no, the press should speak more honestly. I mean, ive seen tremendously dishonest press. Its not even a question of distortion. Like the question that was just asked about the ten times the capability. I know the capability we have, believe me, and it is awesome. It is massive. So when they make up stories like that, thats just made up. And the generals will tell you that. And then they have their sources that dont exist, in my opinion, they dont exist. They make up the sources. There are no sources. Any other questions . [ inaudible question ] well decide over the next fairly short period of time. But i think its going to work out well for both countries and mexico. About the iran deal . Youll see very soon well be announcing that very shortly. [ inaudible question ] what . [ inaudible question ] can you envision still having free trade with canada . Oh, sure, its possible we wont be able to reach a deal with one or the other. But in the meantime well make a deal with one. But i think we have a chance to do something thats very creative for canadian, mexico and the United States. [ inaudible question ] very good. You mean last week . John, you are so far behind the times. Today . Or last week . Today i didnt have lunch with him. I had had a lunch last week. And we had a very good lunch. We have a very good relationship. The press really doesnt understand that, but thats okay. We have a very good relationship. What else . [ inaudible question ] i think i have a little bit different attitude on north korea than other people might have. And i listen to everybody. But ultimately my attitude is the one that matters, isnt it . Thats the way it works. Thats the way the system is. Bumpy think i might have a somewhat different attitude and different way than other people. I think perhaps i feel stronger and tougher on that subject than other people. But i listen to everybody. And ultimately ill do whats right for the United States. And, really, whats right for the world. Because thats really a world problem. Thats beyond just the United States. Thats a world problem. And its a problem that has to be solved. Thank you very much everybody. Thank you. Thank you. [ inaudible question ] yes, i would say that, yes. Thank you, everybody. All right. Lets go to our senior White House Correspondent jeff that is listening as closely as i was, really when it came deny, deny, from the report out from nbc alleging it was President Trump over the summer who said he wanted to increase the u. S. Nuclear arsenal ten fold. And without a doubt the president said no. Thats right, brooke, he said he was denying that report. We know President Trump during his campaign and during his transition talked frequently about modernizing the Nuclear Arsenal. I think the significant came at the end when he was asked by the Pool Reporter about his lunch with the secretary of state rex tillerson. So regardless of when it was, he said that, look, he gets along with him fine, but went on to say we have different attitudes of north korea. So openly saying that he has different attitudes on north korea. Went on to say that ultimately its my decision, my attitude is what matters. He talkskes a sufficientetoughe. Hes tweeted as well that he has a different view as secretary of state, top diplomate of course here. And they have been going become and forth about north korea. So that would seem to suggest that the differences between the president and the secretary of state have not been resolved, at least in terms of north korea. But back to the Nuclear Weapon situation, which of course is part of the same thing here, we are talking about a nuclear threat. And the nuclear capability. The president repeatedly dismissed that nbc news report. He said he has not interested in expanding. Brooke, the reason that that is inflamed conversations here, because nbc has reported that that is when secretary tillerson described the president to others in a derogatory fashion about the nuclear conversation. The white house has denied that the president said not true. But interesting that they were seeing that from the president today. But, again, the conversation at the end about secretary of state tillerson and not being tough enough on north korea stands out to me, brooke. I think that is an excellent point. Jeffly lewis who has been good enough to hang out. Let me ask you about that. There has been all this reporting, i shouldnt just say reporting, the president tweeting and telling the press pool that he and the secretary of state see north korea very differently. How much of a problem that . I think its an enormous problem. I know that people imagine that you can do a good cop, bad cop routine. But the reality is getting the north koreans to the table being able to credibly talk to them. And if the secretary of state has a reputation as saying one thing and the president appears on twitterer to take it away, then if you are the north koreans why do you bother. It is not a good cop, bad cop routine, even though it appears that way. When you also listen to the president talking about in his way, rebuking the reporting that he wanted to increase the Nuclear Arsenal here in the us, he also went on to say, no, its awesome and tiptop shape. What does tiptop shape mean to you . I have no idea. Earlier in the year he referred to russia Nuclear Arsenal. He said it was tippy top and he wanted one too. The way i look at it we have heard for years people said problems in the u. S. Nuclear arsenal. Simplest question to ask is would you switch with the russians . Its been asked a number of times. And the answer is always no. So i think its tippy top. Tippy top. Talking about Nuclear Arsenal. To you, sir, covering the media, hearing the president say it is frankly disgusting the press is able to write whatever it wants to write. Is he calling the press disgusting . I believe he is. And the idea of a free press disgusting. This is one of the worst. I dont want to stoop to his level, that he hasadis regard for the press, but ill say its disappointing. He benefits from the press just like you and i do. He benefits from a free and fair news media. Yet we have seen as the president gets more and more frustrated how his white house is performing, or under performing, lashing out at fake news, which is really news, and looking for solution, saying the intel Senate Committee should investigate. Or today maybe we should look at the licenses for tv stations. Seems like hes reaching for excuses and ways to punish the media for stories he doesnt like. But the nfl stories they had three sources in the room for the meeting where this talk happened about a ten fold increase. Making up source sns you know, brooke, thats the worst in journalism. That almost never happens. And when that dorks they get the heck out of the profession, gets fired. So, no, nbc did not make up the sources today even though the president thinks they did. Brian, thank you. Jeffrey, thank you. And jeff. Coming up here lets talk more about Harvey Weinstein. That scandal. The new york d. A. Explaining why charges were never brought despite allegations of sexual assault. Also rap artist eminem unleashing a tirade against the United States. Saying its either eminem or trump. Well talk about it coming up. Hey allergy muddlers are you one sneeze away from being voted out of the carpool . Try zyrtec® its starts working hard at hour one and works twice as hard when you take it again the next day. Stick with zyrtec® and muddle no more®. They always refer to me as master sergeant. They really appreciate the military family, and it really shows. Weve got auto insurance, homeowners insurance. Had an accident with a vehicle, i actually called usaa before we called the police. Usaa was there handson very quick very prompt. I feel like were being handled as people that actually have a genuine need. Were the webber family and we are usaa members for life. Usaa, get your insurance quote today. Political sphere all waiting to see if and when the president will respond to the new world of words, not with the politician or with pyongyang, no the with the football player, but against a rapper. Eminem launched a free style performance at the awards. After he unleashed he left the fans with ultimatum, you are with him, eminem or the president. He gets an enormous reaction when he attacks the nfl so we focus on that instead of puerto rico or gun control in nevada. And any fan of mine supporter of his, im drawing in the sand a line you are either for or against. And if you cant decide who you like more on your split on who you should stand beside, ill do it for you with this. The rest of america stand up. We love our military. And we love our country. But we [ bleep ] hate trump. Wow, covered eminem for years and years. Treat to have you in here. Thank you. Of all of the four, four and a half minutes, what line or lines really struck you the most . Well, the line you played i think struck me a lot. Because eminem has routes in michigan, detroit, battleground state. And here he is saying im drawing a line in the sand. Either for me or against me but you cant be for both me and trump. And thats striking coming from entertainer. Because these days entertainers are reluctant to get involved with politics because they know they might lose a large section of their audience. But in recent days more and more people are in the public day like lebron james, and like eminem now you can support me or someone else, i dont care, im going to speak my mind. And him saying that lyrically was striking. Almost creating like a Cultural Divide in the country. And the fact you point out this is michigan. I was looking back at the figures. Trump won only by 10,000 votes in michigan. And to know eminem has such deep routes in detroit. Thats trump country, more blue collar, some of his fans white were also trump voters. Do you think people will start choosing . Well, well see. Its important to remember that this is first time eminem has spoken up politically against trump. Hes wrapped mean things about him in the past. This is different. But not the first time taken on the president. He had a song where he went against george bush. Hes rapping politically a long time. Why he took on the president last year. But of course eminem draws the attention, and eye balls, so here we are talking about it. Isnt there also Something Different about it, Colin Kaepernick and how he talks about race, that feels like the difference. I think you are onto something there. I think what makes this particular bit of burst so interesting, why people are talking about it, its so specific. Hes not just saying generally im upset with trump, his policies. Hes being very specific about puerto rico, about Colin Kaepernick. Nevada. Other things he sees in different ways with trump and bringing them up. And specificity of his argument is whats really gotten i think the internet afire about what he had to say. You, im going to give you credit for having us look and find this video. This is from archives of mtv 2004, let me set it up where youle see this is like a Mock Political Convention for slim shady. And guess who comes in to endorse him . Watch. Of course im right. Im always right. Im donald trump. Im always right. And donald trump is telling you right now, slim shady is a winner. [ cheers and applause ] hes got brains. Hes got guts. And hes got Donald Trumps vote. Whats the first thing you thought when you saw that video . Whats interesting about that is in the past donald trump was actually held up as icon of wealth and power in rap worlds. Go back through the rap lyrics years ago, he pops up. But only in recent years and months, as trump has become a politician, that you start to see a negativity creep in about what hes about, policies, and see it pop up in the lyrics of Kendrick Lamar as well, not just eminem. So when he became a politics, he became fair game for rappers to take a stab at. But before that they had him on stage, like back in 2004, Mock Political Convention. But, President Trump has criticized members of his own cabinet, senate, espns but has nothing so far on eminem. Are you surprised . Im a journalist who cant make a comment on what the president has time to comment on. But i think his supporters and dont support him would be happy that he spends time on other things, with things going on in puerto rico without power, other things to comment on. But well see if he has time to tweet on what eminem had to say last night. Thank you very much. Thank you. Coming up on cnn, Harvey Weinstein scandal, District Attorney in manhattan explaining why charges were never brought regarding allegations of sexual assault. Also, why nbc could have reported on the story multiple months ago decided to pass on it. Nbc news defending that decision. Brian stelter has those details. Theres only one egg that gives you better taste and better nutrition in so many varieties. Classic. Cage free. And organic. Only egglands best. Were back with new allegations against Harvey Weinstein. More than two dozen women, including some of hollywoods biggest actresses speaking out alleging Sexual Harassment abuse, and in the case of three women, rape. Meantime, manhattan d. A. Fending off evidence where weinstein admits to groping a woman. Go to the bathroom. Please, i dont want to do stg i dont want to. Plieease listen to me. I wont do anything. Youll never see me again. If you embarrass me in this hotel. Its i dont feel comfortable. Please, im not going to do anything. I swear on my children. Please come in. On everything. Im a famous guy. Im feeling very uncomfortable right now. Please come in now. And in one minute if you went to leave. Why yesterday you touch my breast. Im sorry, im used to that. You are use today that . Yes, come in. And here is what manhattan District Attorney cyrus vance had to say about that today. I understand that folks are outraged by his behavior. I understand that there are many other allegations that have surfaced. Abo but in hoour case we did what t law obligates us to do. If we had a face that my experts thought we could against him, we would have. This as the Weinstein Company board including his own brother insist they knew nothing about this alleged abuse. But the new yorker reports this morning some employees witnessed or at least had knowledge of unwanted sexual advances. Lets go more on the breaking news with brian stelter. Hes back. Ten month investigation by ronan farrow, a nbc con trtributor, h raised question, do you want this. They never went it. Now there is it all the criticism as to why. Whats the bach story . Ronan wanted to broadcast on television, started back in january. Working on this trying to convince women to come forward and share their stories telling them you will be heard. Youll be on television with this. By the summertime, though, nbc decided didnt have enough. The bosses told him stop working on this. You dont have enough. Doesnt meet our standards. Partly because the women were speaking anonymously. So he went out to the new yorker magazine instead, new yorker was thrilled to talk to them. Now new yorker is keeping all the credit and claim. So whats the line from nbc . Official line is just had a town hall meeting just didnt have enough reporting. We wish he had. He didnt have it. He wasnt fully nailed down with the story. That strikes a lot of people at nbc as fishy though. Because this was a story that weinstein was trying to suppress. He had succeeded in convincing other nuls outlets in the past. Kept the lead on secrets for many years, actually decades. And now i wonder this is another case of weinstein exceeding and stopping a news outlet from uncovering him. So thanks to the New York Times and new yorker we learned. This is the fact celebrities have been openingly joking about the Harvey Weinstein on television. Watch this. Congratulations you five ladies you no longer have to pretend to be a tragiced to Harvey Weinstein. Dont do it. Oh, please im not afraid of anyone in show business. I turned down intercourse with Harvey Weinstein on no less than three occasions out of five. What . Joking about it. Looking back now, even if they didnt know he was a criminal, it was clearly obvious to lots of folks in hollywood and new york that he was a creep. So gross, brian stelter, thank you. One of the weinstein accusers, ac rest said she was 18 and catherine is good enough to be with me. Thank you so much. Youre welcome. Lets go back to 1993. You are starting out. You had met Harvey Weinstein in his office. He says to you welcome to the miramax family. Help put us in your shoes at the time at age 23 what did this feel like to be standing in front of the Harvey Weinstein. Well, it was, i felt like it was incredible honor. I felt so lucky that i had the meeting, that it went well, that he was inviting me into the miramax family. I also felt it was a legitimate situation. I didnt it wasnt i didnt have a meeting alone. There were people. Doors in his office was open. Women coming in and out. Women i was meeting that worked there. You know, i felt like he was going to be a mentor for me. And he was going to help me learn my way through the business. So he had some scripts he wants to show you. Makes sense. Hes this mega producer. Invites you ultimately after a little bit, my understanding back and forth, says come to my apartment. You go. How did the whole thing start . Were you just chatting in his foyer . The whole thing started, he actually invited me to a screening of a movie. And i ended up going. And ended up being a movie with me and harvey at the movies. Which was very strange. And afterwards, i sort of made an excuse like i have to go home now. He said let me just go to my apartment really quickly. I have to get something. And i said ill wait downstairs. And he negotiated with me and bullied me. You know, you saw on the tape you heard how he talks. Hes intimidating and manipulative. And hes a bully. And you end up sort of giving in, somehow going. But i thought, okay, there is pictures of his wife in the apartment. Its all right. We have a conversation for a long time about art and politics and movies. And i think that hes treating me like an intellect. And i feel sort of like, okay, this is safe. This is all right. And he goes to the bathroom and comes back after an hour of us having a conversation. And he comes back in a robe. And asks me to give him a massage. And i say no. And he doesnt like that answer. So he asks several times. Says other people do it all the time. Sort of whats wrong with me that im making a big deal out of it. Just a massage. I dont want to. That goes become and forth. Then he comes back, goes to the bathroom and comes back out completely naked. And youre thinking how do i get out of here . I mean, how are you feeling . What are you thinking . What do you do . Its an immediate my memory is an immediate adrenaline rush of how do i get out of here. Whats going to happen. Is he going to rape me . Lets be honest, you know, hes naked. That actually went through your mind. Absolutely. Hes between me and the door. Hes naked. Hes a man. He is not taking no for an answer. He doesnt like this. He doesnt like that im not giving in to him. Its not i mean, you dont know. How do you know . What kind of situation have i ever been in thats like that that would make me i know, there is no preparing for that moment. At least not in my world. No. I mean, maybe for other people, he might try to make me think that is normal. But you know its not. And i knew, my body knew that it wasnt, you know. Yeah. So then how do you get out of there . Then it becomes a negotiation of, you know, let me go. I cant believe you are doing this. Now im insulted angry. He becomes, you know, he kind of chases me around a little bit. And says well if you wont give me a massage, will you at least lift up your shirt and let me see your breasts . Hes bargaining if you dont do this, maybe you can do this . Hes fwbargaining and it goe on for a long time and its exhausting and warears down and makes you think you wont get past it. How do you get out . I finally get out. Somehow he says ill let you leave if you let me take you to a taxi myself. Let me take you to a taxi myself. I promise, everything will be okay, im sorry, ill take you to a taxi. He takes me to a taxi he gets in the taxi with me. I go downtown to a bar. I get out. I go into the bar. I ask the bartender to look at me, like he knows me, and please talk to me. Because harvey is still sitting in the taxi staring at me through the taxi window, which is creepy. And ill never know why. You feel his eyes on you . Yeah, absolutely. I can see him. I can see the taxi. I can see him looking at me. And then he leaves . And then he finally leaves. Did he ever try contacting you . Yeah, he called me afterwards several times in the following weeks. And i, you know, i never saw him a planned ways. Later on i saw him at some screened movies. I always felt who zblhorrible. Did you ever tell anyone . I did. I cried on my moms should tear and told some of my closest friends. And i got messages recently from people who very sweetly said, you know, i hope i was a good enough friend to you at that time. I remember you telling me the story and i remember feeling helpless with you. I heard you earlier saying you felt shame. I did feel shame. Why . Well, you know, its a funny thing. I think that ive come to learn that when somebody perpetrates against you, they put their shame on you. Its not yours. But they put it on you. Now you are carrying their shame. And you dont know why you feel so bad. Because they did something to you. But you do. And so often we talk to people who feel that way. They feel like there is something wrong with them. They did something to deserve this or ask for this. They have that creepy slimed feeling that its their fault somehow. And thats the crime in all of this, you know, is the innocent person feels dirty. What would you like to see happen with him . Its hard for me to even say what i want. I mean, he needs to get help. I think hes really hes got hes sick. Heels got a problem. But i think that id like to see women in general feel like their voices are heard. I dont want people to be afraid anymore to speak up. Women and men who have been perpetrated against. I feel like it should ab new tibe a new time for people to feel safe to talk about this stuff. I agree with you. And its stunning for those of us not in the hollywood sphere and learning about 30 years of these stories and stars coming outs and saying they are shocked. I mean, even the legendary merrill streep, she said she had no idea. If this was such an open secret, how can they be shocked . He was a man ipulative man. Shes a smart guy. You can see that quickly meeting with him and talking with him, i think. I dont know how so many people didnt know. I really dont. But im suspecting that he did a good job, just like he did a good job of convincing maybe some of these other news stations to not run his story. I mean, or even his own board, that he was innocent. Master manipulator. Heres my last question. You know, now that all of this has come out, katherine, if you could look Harvey Weinstein in the eye today, what would you say to him . I would say that what you did really hurt me. And you need to know the damage that you caused. And i hope you are sorry. I hope you are sorry. Katherine kendall, thank you so much for speaking up. Thanks. Thanks for having me. Moving on now, got to talk about some breaking news involving russian linked facebook ads used during the 2016 election. And when we will get to see them. Next. All right. Breaking news now on cnn members of the House Intelligence Committee investigating russian interference in the 2016 election say they plan to release russian linked facebook ads. Lets go to Senior Correspondent that is over this. Tell me more. Thats right. After a meeting with facebook coo Cheryl Sandberg two leaders of the house Russian Investigation emerged saying these russian linked facebook ads will be linked as quickly as possible according to the words of congressman mike con owe way of texas. Adam schiff also said when i asked him is this going to be released by facebook or committee, he said they would be done by the committee. The economy will work with facebook to scrub any information. Get that out as as soon as possible. This will likely not happen before november 1st public hearing on this very issue. This is significant, brooke, because facebook has been resisting for sometime releasing these 3,000 ads at least roughly 10 Million People during the election season. Soma period in swing states and different areas of the country. But now, after the pressure from the House Intelligence Committee, the committee will release these ads in the coming days. Senate Intelligence Committee has decided they will not release the ads. So this the first time well get a sense of the russian strategy using facebook and how they try to sow dissension among the meerng people once they are released. Manu, thank you. All right.
