Transcripts For CNNW New Day 20140506

Ed. They had already feared these girls would be taken into this remote area bordering nigeria. Now nightmare scenario with the release of the video saying he will sell these children in a human market because al la has commanded him to do so. Lets look at how this story unfolded. His is the face of terror, the leader of the group bragging that he was behind the kidnappings. I abducted your girls, he taunts with a chilling smile. He adds, i will sell them in the market. 300 schoolgirls taken at gunpoint from their boarding school three weeks ago. Another malicious attack orchestrated by this group that Authorities Say has terrorized nigeria killing innocent civilians. The disturbing comments and behavior underscoring their twisted ideology calling for the end of western education saying girls should get married instead of going o to school. Families in anguish, too frightened to speak to the media or share pictures of their daughters fearing retribution. Im a young mother. Its shocking. Reporter still unclear, the total number of girls missing whether any have been sold and exactly where they might be. Triggering anger and raising questions about whether the Nigerian Government can rescue these girls. This is an outrage and a tragedy and we are doing what we can to assist the Nigerian Government to support its efforts to find and free the young women who were abducted. Not for sale . Reporter the act of terror igniting outrage. Protesters taking to the stre s streets. Our eyes are watching. Reporter bringbackourgirls have gone viral online with famous faces calling for immediate action. As you can imagine, these parents are in utter agony. Their worst fears realized. They have said to us they themselves have tried to arm themselves with rocks, stones, anything they could to go themselves risking their own lives to bring back their daughters and now it looks like their daughters may be out of their grasp. Its unimaginable, thank you very much. The president of nigeria is vowing to bring the girls back, but families of these girls say the government is not doing enough. Lets continue our coverage with isha sisay in nigeria. Reporter the outrage grows every day. Nigerians are asking, what is their government doing . Where are the details of the search and rescue operation . There was an information blackout here in this country with little to no information being shared. On sunday the president making his first oncamera statements about this matter saying the government is doing all they can saying they are using helicopte helicopters. What number of troops are being dedicate ed dedicated to the mission . What proportion of the area has been combed . What leads have they followed up . So many unanswered questions. People here in nigeria, its created a sense of mistrust and they are saying that the government needs to ask for help. International assistance so they can move this along. We spoke to the finance minister yesterday. She admitted they need International Help and shes asking for it, telling us they will be reaching out. We know the u. S. Government said they will aid nigeria in this time of need. This is a desperate situation and its not just a matter of the fact that these girls have gone missing. I want to stress to you that this group has been in ports of Northern Nigeria here, but they have committed acts of terror in the capital. So theres a e growing sense that what happened in the north could happen to people here in the capital pop who knows who will be next. Thank you for the reporting, theres a lot of talk going on and not enough action. Lets bring in somebody from washington. Nicole lee, a human rights expert. Thank you for joining us. First basic question, is the Nigerian Government doing what it needs to do . And if not, why . The people of nigeria feel they are not going what they need to do. We have been hearing reports of intimidation of family members but also activists who have come to the aid of the families to protest the lack of support from the Nigerian Government. There are reports of arrests. We have heard that the first lady who has no Constitutional Authority whatsoever in nigeria has been intimidating folks. Even here in washington, nigerianamericans have been saying they have been told not to protest, not go to out, because that will harm the girls. So explain this to me because this is not going to make sense to people. Were talking about the first lady, the reports are saying youre embarrassing the country 23 you protest. Youre embarrassing the country if you beg for your children back. Do you believe those reports . I do believe the reports because were hearing them from all over, from credible sources. Certainly the families just want their girls back so theres no reason for them not to tell the truth. One of the things we have to realize is tomorrow in nigeria becomes the World Economic forum africa. So nigeria is in a situation where they want to be seen as a world leader. They dont want to be seen through this lens of terrorism. But they are going about it it the wrong way. World attention is not going to stop until we see tangible results of even just the investigation beginning to find these girls. And i believe that at this point, the world community, if not all the leaders around the world, are really behind these families and really are going to look for results before they kind of back down from protesting. Lets test that a little bit, nicole. Its a wellplaced intention that you have, but this happened on april 14th. And i would venture to guess if it happened in paris, i would probably be there wondering when the u. S. Force is going to show up with the girls. Is there a Little Africa bias going on here . If this happened in chicago, it would be 24hour News Coverage from beginning to end. The truth of the matter is our imagery and our minds about africa allows us to kind of see Something Like this and say this doesnt have anything to do with us. I do think the social media campaign, the idea of bringing back our girls, these are the worlds e girls now. These are schoolgirls in any part of our globe. So all of us can take ownership of the situation. Thats whats really pushing the ball forward. Whats the best information on the ground about the intentions of this man saying hes going to sell them . Is there any information about whether these threats have been made into efforts . Anyone who is watching the internet sites . Do we know anything about that . Right now its very difficult to tell whether these are empty and idol threats or real threats. We do know they are increasing their Terror Campaign in nigeria all over the country. Certainly we know that Human Trafficking is a problem in nigeria. Many groups are involved many Human Trafficking. I think the Worst Nightmare of the families are coming to fruition. The question is what is the the International Community going to do to find all girls that are being trafficked in nigeria. Almost a forgotten story is that Human Trafficking continues. Its a modern slave trade. It happens here in the United States with u. S. Kids. But context, almost 300 kids taken, very vulnerable age because they are going to be considered full grown women there. Last question, the u. S. Is saying the typical thing. This is outrageous and tragic and must stop. Is there proof we are doing the right thing . Is the u. S. Doing what it needs to do . If not, lets call them out and start the pressure. Were glad to hear secretary kerry say this is a horrible thing. The question is what is tangibly being done. Activists here in the United States and just regular people in the United States want to see that tangible action and thats why there are still protests being planned. Theres one here today in washington. So were going to keep the pressure up. Tangible results must be seen from governments on all sides. Keep us in the loop on what you learn about the situation on the ground and how we can press with the right questions because the more information we have, the better we can help out. Nicole lee, thank you very much. Lets turn to more concerning signs this morning ukraine could be headed for an owl all out conflict. There are deadly clashes, troops lining up to protect key areas from separatists. The violence forcing a major airport in ukraine to shut down. Now a new poll Shows Americans are overwhelmingly against u. S. Military intervention right now. Lets get the very latest from arwa damon, good morning. Reporter good morning, and were at the International Airport this morning, an announcement it was shut down. Now its open to a handful of domestic flights. Its just an example of how chaotic the situation is become ing as the conflict grows more dangerous. The city now the major flash point in the battle for Eastern Ukraine. Government troops trying to force their way into the city, which is being held by prorussian separatists. Civilians caught in the middle of it all. A woman was shot in the head, her husband raced her to the hospital. She did not survive. Militants blamed Ukrainian Forces for the civilian casualties. Throughout the eastern part of the country, the violence is growing. A ukrainian helicopter was shot down. This is the Ukrainian Governments strongest effort yet to clear out the separatists, but its showing very little success. Russia, which is accused of fanning the flames of rebellion, instead blame it on ukraine calling them to stop using armed forces against its own people. What is making all of this more potentially volatile is the fact that there seems to be absolutely no progress towards any sort of political negotiation. Those separatists groups intend to go ahead with their may 11th ref r referendum. Thank you so much for keeping ab eye on that situation there. Now a look at more of your headlines at this hour. In just a couple hours time, the white house is going to release a landmark report on Climate Change. One thats meant to be the definitive account of the efforts of global warming. Jim acosta is live at the white house with details for us. Reporter good morning. Hast right, the white house is warning that the nations weather is about to get worse as a result of Climate Change. The warnings coming in a report thats due out in a couple hours from now. The report is expected to announce, you can see it on screen, that well be seeing warming temperatures, rising sea levels, increased risk of wildfires as a result of Climate Change. The white house really wants the public to see this from a local perspective so they will be breaking down some of the local consequences region by region. The president is also going to be sitting down for a series of interviews with meteorologists come manager from all over the country to talk to the president here at the white house. We should point out this is a pretty tricky balancing act. Officials are saying they are going to take action when it comes to Climate Change. They are also touting oil and Gas Production many this country. While thats going on, the administration is taking its time when it comes to approving that controversial Keystone Oil Pipeline project. A lot of endangered red state democrats are worried they are up for reelection. They want to see the Keystone Pipeline project approved. Youll see the president talking about that as well i would suspect over the coming hours of this day. We should point out that republicans are saying that, hey, the president had a Democratic Congress during his administration. He hasnt really gotten Climate Change legislation passed. Democrats say thats because republicans have been stalling those efforts. A lot of big med term um pli indications heading into this election cycle. Jim, that report coming out at 8 30. Cnn will be watching that. Thank you. A south korea diver has died. Officials say the diver had some sort of trouble with his oxygen supply five minutes into his first dive. 35 people remain mising in the ferry disaster. More than 267 bodies have been recovered. Federal officials telling cnn that a cold war era spy plane was behind the air Traffic Control shutdown in los angeles. An faa Computer System was fooled by the high ald tud and reacted as if it was flying much lower. The shutdown caused dozens of flights to be cancelled. Always a problem when theres a diversion at lax. Lets talk weather. How is it looking out there . Good today, but hast going to change quickly. Lets talk about the setup into the northeast. Kind of mild. You notice the temperatures pretty mild out there in the pacific northwest. But its smack in the middle of the country were starting to see the heat build and that will be a problem as we go in through tomorrow. Out in d. C. This morning, youll see some showers for the morning commute. Not a big system. Its whats behind it and start ing to set up. Red flag warnings, very dry. Thats a concern out towards Oklahoma City where they are trying to battle the wildfires. And temperatures again today expected to be record breaking. The heat is build iing. The jet stream lifting farther to the north. Temperatures in chicago, enjoy it today. By tomorrow, its not going to feel good. Youll see temperatures rise as well. So here we go. The cold air is going to clash with the recordbreaking heat in the middle of the country. This sets up the threat for Severe Weather again through tomorrow and thursday as the system slides across. Thats going to be the big concern over the next several days. Then scattered showers into the northeast by the second half of the week. Nothing like what they are expecting in the middle of the country. We saw this last week. Definitely something to Pay Attention to heading into tomorrow. Thanks so much. I dont like the look of the map. Coming up on new day, now what . The hunt for flight 370, they are going back to the crawing board. But they are sticking to their assumptions about the current location. Is that a mistake . We have answers ahead. Plus investigators know now a small piece of equipment is to blame for a terrifying circus accident. What caused it to fail . Well be live with the details just ahead. Hiwe just love scouring flea markets for special treasures. But with my type 2 diabetes, we now spend all our time at the pharmacy. With medcare, i dont have to they deliver everything i need right to my door with Free Shipping plus, medcare takes private policies, medicaid, even my medicare sleep apnea machines, nebulizers, medcare has all the finest medical supplies.

This is where we bring together reliably fast internet and the best in entertainment. We call it the x1 entertainment operating system. It looks like the future we must have encountered a temporal vortex. Further analytics are necessary. Beam us up. Thats my phone. Hey. [ female announcer ] the x1 entertainment operating system. Only from xfinity. Tv and internet together like never before. Investigators now say a single piece of equipment is to blame for that horrible circus accident that sent nine performers to the hospital sund sunday. Eight remain there this morning as officials try to determine what caused the fiveinch steel clamp to give way. 11 people were injured when equipment failure caused a circus act to go horribly wrong. New details are appearing and what is being done to make sure it never happens again. We want to warn you, the video of the accident is disturbing. They didnt expect their equipment to fail. Reporter but something did fail causing performers of the hair hang act to plummet 25 to 35 feet to the ground on sunday. Eight women who performed acrobatics as a human chandelier along with one dancer on the ground were hurt with multiple compound fractures including head and internal injuries. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration says it is far too early to say what happened, but state investigators have determined a steel connection point made to hold 10,000 pounds just snapped. A dshaped metal ring that has a gate that opens and closes and allows you to connect two other pieces of equipment, that failed. It was a single piece of equipment that failed. Reporter licensing regulations do not require any state inspections. Last year in las vegas, a performer with Cirque Du Soleil fell to her death during a show. Similar to the one seen here. In october osha cited the circus and the venue for violations. Osha tells cnn they require that a Competent Person selected by the employer must recognize potential hazards and make corrections before every performance. A circus Spokesman Says that was done. We have an entire safety crew thats dedicated to travel iingo all our units to make sure steps are taken. All our equipment is inspected every time. Reporter one of the things osha will look at in this investigation is whether there should be more. Osha says, we will provide a safe workplace for all americans. If it involves more regulations, that is important. After canceling all the remaining rhode island performances, the circus will move on to hartford, connecticut, may 8th. None of the performances will include the hair hang act. Thank you for that update. The clippers play game one against the thunder in Oklahoma City and they win big. They call that a statement game when you do that. Andy shultz joining us with the highlights. The word statement meaning a lot more because this is the clippers. Yeah, certainly right. Home court advantage, continues to be nothing in the playoffs. The clippers go to Oklahoma City and put a beatdown on the thunder. Chris paul usually doesnt shoot many threepointers, he was just raining them down. He had a career eight high in the game. The clippers run away winning 122105. Trending this morning, roy hibbert did it again. The center scored zero points and zero rebounds in last nights win. His teammates not happy with him saying he has to be a part of the fight. Two more playoff games tonight on tnt. Nets and heat get things going followed by the blazers at the spurs. The nfl draft is not until thursday night, but the eagles may have already added a difference maker. The Team Announced they have signed u. S. Army ranger to a free agent contract. The former army wide receiver served three tours in afghanistan and was recently promoted to captain and said if he didnt sign with a team he was going to go back to afghanistan for a fourth tour. He hasnt played organized football since 2009 but he said he stayed sharp playing hlz football. That means helicopter landing zone football. They used to play that in afghanistan and would hear shots fired and have to hear shots fired. Good to see him get his shot in the nfl and hope hes successful. Absolutely, well deserved. Andy, thank you. If you want somebody who is hard and is going to be tested under pressure, you take a soldier over an athlete ten times out of ten. Coming up next on new day, the next phase of the search for flight 370 is going to take a lot of time and more money. Were the last two months of searching a waste of both .

New at t mobile share value plans. Our best value plans ever for business. Back to new day. Lets take a look at your headlines. The head of boko haram is claiming that allah says he should sell the girls. He calls the girls slaves and says western education should end. The white house is calling the abductions an outrage and has offered the authorities help in search prg the girls. No let up for the fire crews in oklahomaer in fighting a series of flare ups in the fastmoving wildfire in oklahoma. High temperatures and low humidity are expected to keep fueling the inferno into tomorrow. One firefighter suffered minor injuries. About 100 other firefighters reportedly treated for heat or smoke inhalation. So far 3,500 acres have been scorched. Supreme court says its okay to open local town and City Council Meetings with christian prayers. The 54 ruling split with the court find iing the prayers constitutional as long as they dont denigrate nonchristians or force others to join in. Critics say the decision relegates minorities to second class status. Is it back to square one for the search for flight 370 . Government officials are set to meet with aviation analysts to assess the data. Did they get something wrong or is this just the next phase of the search . Our cnn aviation analyst is here. David, tomorrow is a very big day in terms of the next phase of the search. You have malaysian, chinese officials coming together with experts to take a look at the data. I dont know if we call this a step back to analyze data, but what is going to come out of it . What ive heard is one group is going to be looking ats the data that they have had so far and the information they have gathered from the search area so far. Then the next group is going to be looking at resources. Whats going to come of it . Its a stage we call validate, sometimes verify. What it is you have done, what needs to be done, and what it is that is most likely to be done. But as you validate your information, what you want to look for is anything else thats happened before and any new information you have and they have both. They are looking back at what the pings did. Are they really pings . Theres a lot of question about that. The frequency doesnt match. Is it possible the pinger got damaged or Something Else out there. Those are the kinds of things they will be looking at. They have this meeting. Who knows, maybe it could last a couple days. That we could see ping two is where they had been focused where they did not find anything in that narrow search. They are expanding the search now. Could we find these are dramatically going to move elsewhere. I think what were looking at here is the fact that this was the most likely. We also have to consider that the bluefin was the only tool they had. So her going to evaluate is it worth going out looking at that ping or are they invalid. Those are the kinds of pieces of information. I dont think well see that. Well see more of an oblong shape like this and start working their way up this way with the new tools depending on which tools they opt to use at that point. I want to talk about a couple things here. Were also looking at this is the pings came from the bluefin. That was direct pings coming from the ocean detected by the bluefin. You also have the data that has not been released to the public. This is the data they have had from the beginning, the complex complications that have led them on this flight path where they think they projected this highest probability area. Do you think this could change . Absolutely. This could very much change because of the fact that these are all assumptions. Exactly. They are saying how fast did it go. You see how these change right here, right here. These points are points in time in which they say the speeds and altitudes. They are not an assumption that stays the same all the way down. There are varying speeds which we hadnt seen before. We also say the more transparency throughout the process is better. Do you think anything would change do you think it would create any kind of a problem if they did release this data . I have been thinking about this a lot. People have been asking me this question. I thought before, no, it just makes things hectic, theres too many things going on. I reassessed last night. Theres some groups that i have been communicating with. Crowd sourcing could be the solution. Absolutely. And the specific crowd that i have been talking about, theres some smart crowds out there. Were not talking about me being part of that crowd. This is high math people. I think that would be helpful actually. Lets get the information out there and lets really look at this. Were talking about the area could be deep as 4. 4 miles. Deeper than the bluefin can go. What else would be brought in . The remus because it can go down 6,000 meters. So now there is some areas that are deeper than that even. They are going to have to bring in a deep water sonar scanner. Thats something they will probably need as well if they get any further north. The problem is were also dealing with a time problem. It will take a couple months to get the assets in place. The bluefin will be searching, but some say that is a loss of time. David, thank you. Chris . Lets take a break. When we come back, ukraine strikes back. Dozens of prorussia protesters. Is there a plan to help stop it . Well take you there. And everyone agrees Donald Sterlings comments were awful, or at least i hope everyone agrees, because not everyone thinks he should be forced to sell. We asked you what you think and youll be surprised by the results and the reasoning, coming up. No matter what kind of business you own, at t Business Experts can help keep it running. Seamlessly. So you can get back to what you love. When everyone and everything works together, business just sings. agent ill walk you guys through every step. There are a lot of buyers for a house like yours. husband thats good to know. Heavy fighting in ukraine as the government tried to win back control from prorussian militants in the city. Russias foreign minister acc e accused the government of terrorism against their own people. How do they calm things down . How do they slow the trajectory . Joining us to discuss damon wilson, executive Vice President at the atlantic council, former white house director of european affairs. Thanks for coming in. Good to be with you. Everyone is rying to get in Vladimir Putins mind. Impossible to do so, but we try nonetheless. Theres fear on the ground, we hear from our reporters, that the bloodshed and uptick in violence is a precursor for Vladimir Putin to try to rationalize a further invasion. Do you think thats whats happening on the ground . Its hard to be exactly in putins mind and know what his next steps are going to be, but hes been fairly transparent in his objective. Hes been clear he wasnt going to allow ukraine to move to the west, which was the origin of all of this. And hes played a very heavy hand. This is a kremlin strategy to provoke a crisis. We wouldnt be having a crisis on the ground in Eastern Ukraine if it werent for russian intervention. May 25th, thats the marker, thats when elections will be taking place. I was talking yesterday and the question was posed, will elections be allowed in Eastern Ukraine. Thats going to be a water shed moment for this country. If they are not allowed, if they are not seen as e legitimate come the end of may, what then do you think . I think we have to be aware this is part of Vladimir Putins strategy. Elections that represent ukraine is the biggest threat to putins ability to control this country. What we see playing out is a russian effort to help disrupt these elections, to be able to prevent voters from coming out in Eastern Ukraine. This is going to be the big challenge. Thats why you see the Ukrainian Government trying to reassert its authority in some of these regions in the east because everybody understands how important it is to allow the ukrainian people to demonstrate how different they are and to be able to pick their own leaders and determine their own future. The stakes are high right now. The stakes are high. We know that World Leaders are talking a lot to each other trying to figure it out. We have unilateral sanctions kind of all over the place at the moment. To a mixed review on how effective they are, what more do you think, if there is one move by president obama, what should the president be doing now, do next . The United States and the European Union have already moved forward on a series of sanctions that intended to target more individuals either those close to putin in government do you think those have worked . I think they have had some impact. If you look at capital outflows, 60 billion, predicted to be 100 billion over the course of the year. An economy in russia that they predict will go into recession. So they are having an impact. At the same time, Vladimir Putins calculations, his immediate calculations of what hes doing in ukraine, they have not imagined to deter yet. Thats the change the administration and the European Union is facing right now. When do they pull the trigger on the significant sanctions to target the Energy Sector and more broadly hit the russian economy. Do you think nato allies that are nato members, do you think they are going to have to accept some pain in order to apply the sanctions that will actually hit at putin and make him change his course . Because they are so tied, their economy so far, thats why many suggested the country has been hesitant to move forward with the hard core sanctions. Thats right. The United States trade with russia is less than 2 of our overall, but europe is more integrative. European leaders are coming to grips with the reality that this is an unacceptable situation. Theres going to have to be some shortterm pain. This is also why you saw last week Vice President biden, secretary kerry talking about a grayer u. S. Strategic response to putins aggression includes an energy union, Energy Cooperation across the atlantic as well as our trade policy to be able to demonstrate that the economies of europe and the United States, the fundamentals are strong. With open trade our economies can rebound from some sanctions that might impact us on the margins. Its the russian economy that would suffer a direct hit. Having that view is not something that many countries are capable of sometimes. Damon wilson, thank you very much. Great to see you. Chris . Coming up on new day, the Donald Sterling mess. Taking the team seemed like a no brainer, but tick tok and theres no word from the owners. Should private comments lead to the sale of private property . We asked you, and youre going to be surprised by the results, they are straight ahead. We also know what caused eight performers to come crashing down at the circus. Were going to ask what a daredevil thinks could be done to keep performers safe. Im mary and i have copd. Im jeff and i have copd. Im lisa and i have copd, but i dont want my breathing problems to get in the way of hosting my book club. Thats why i asked my doctor about breo. Oncedaily breo ellipta helps increase airflow from the lungs for a full 24 hours. And breo helps reduce symptom flareups that last several days and require oral steroids, antibiotics, or hospital stay. Breo is not for asthma. Breo contains a type of medicine that increases risk of death in people with asthma. It is not known if this risk is increased in copd. Breo wont replace rescue inhalers for sudden copd symptoms and should not be used more than once a day. Breo may increase your risk of pneumonia, thrush, osteoporosis, and some eye problems. Tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high Blood Pressure before taking breo. Ask your doctor about breo for copd. First prescription free at mybreo. Com free hot breakfast options. Hampton, enjoy our you did a great job. It looks good . Then fuel up with Double Points or double miles on your next getaway. Make every stay more rewarding and feel the hamptonality new this morning, not everyone thinks Donald Sterling should be forced to sell the l. A. Clippers for the racist remarks he made in private. Thats going to be a key point. Also key depending on who you ask. The new poll has the numbers. When you ask fans of the nba, 60 say, as you can see there, e he should have to sell, but nonbasketball fans, only 41 say yes. 55 say no. This is a legit debate. Lets have it out. We have criminal defense attorney darrin kavinoky. Thats a beautiful name. Youre not the first. We also have former nba player and game analyst for Comcast Sportsnet in philadelphia malik rose. I have been a fan of yours for too long. Lets do this. Starting with you, darrin, give me your best 20 seconds your best part of your argument first and then malik you go. First of all, im not backing what Donald Sterling says, but fundamentally our country was founded on notions of freedom. And Donald Sterling, people believe, has the freedom to be an idiot in the privacy of his own home and that should not result in Property Assets being taken from him. Malik . Youre exactly right. In the u. S. Court, that is true. But hes not being tried by the u. S. The u. S. Isnt the one thats sanctioning him. Donald sterling is part of a private entity and hes in clear violation of the by laws and constitution of that entity and the longer he stays a part of it, he jeopardizes the entire industry. Rebuttal . Yeah, well, when were talking about those by laws, the rational behind them were to make sure that owners who were in financial problems wouldnt be able to continue to run the team. Here that doesnt apply u. What were using is the bylaws that were designed to keep owners making their payroll who were having problems with making their payroll from remaining a team in the nba. Were using that to strip ownership because of whats essentially thought policing. And i think thats something that people have a genuine fundamental problem with. Malik . It goes further than that. Commissioner silver has a fiduciary responsibility to the owners, the players and the sponsors that spend money with the league. As long as he leds this racism to be part of the brand, sponsors are going to pull out. You already saw with some of the sponsors. They are putting pressure on the league to deal with it because they dont want their brand associated with another brand that allows or allows racism and discrimination. Its his responsibility, mr. Silver, to deal with this, get him to sell the team or theres going to be less money in the revenue sharing pool to split. Hes basically the member of a club. This club instead of owning a golf course owns franchises in the nba. They have rules about their membership. Why shouldnt they be allowed to exercise their rules and say you are bad for business . I think ultimately were going to see this it play out that they are going to attempt to do exactly that. Brace yourselves, everybody. This is going to be protractive litigation where Donald Sterling with his deep pockets and his veracious appetite for litigation is going to do everything he can to delay, delay, delay. I think hes got good legal arguments to be able to do it, both from a breach of contract standpoint and antitrust standpoint and also the ultimate bomb to throw into the garden here is to file divorce paperwork, which will bring all of this into the realm of the California Family law courts and more people will be fighting to prevent the transfer of ownership. Its not a marital asset because its going to be a franchise. Let me put this to you, malik. Is it true what is it said in the document he signed in his membership . What rights did he give away in terms of what he can litigate and what does he just have to own up . I really dont know thats not Public Knowledge to us, the players and the players union. Thats why one of the things they wanted was full disclosure and what hes being governed by. But the bottom line is, the more he stays involved with the team hes going to jeopardize the multibillion dollar industry. You have to think of the chaos that would come out of this. Players are already saying they are not going to want to play for him. Free agents arent going to want to sign to play with them. Doc rivers doesnt want to coach for him. Technically threatening the entire franchise. It will be 29 teams instead of 30 teams. No one will want to be involved with the l. A. Clippers and thats going to hinder the revenue sharing process. Did we see the clippers game . They are still a highly functioning organization having a great run in the playoffs and theres little suggestion that the clippers are being run in a way thats racist. Clearly what Donald Sterling said revealed his own idiot si and no one is going to defend that, but at the end of the day, theres a strong analogy to be made between freedom of expression and those protections that are found in the United States constitution that is that its only unpopular views, unpopular expressions that need protection and Donald Sterlings views as unpopular as they are arguably should not be the basis to force an asset to be disgorged from him. Fundamentally, thats something that people are troubled by, chris. Kavinoky started, malik, you finish. Its simple. The players are not going to want to play for him. As long as hes still involved with the l. A. Clippers, no one is going to rest. The public outcry is still going to be there. To finish with a point, the league knows hes ready to fight and the union is ready to join hands with the league and fight this guy tooth and nail to get him to sell the franchise. He has to sell the franchise or they wont be able to go global with the nba because you have minorities. Youre not going to embrace a product that allows somebody to be racist like mexico or south america. He has to sell. The league and the union will e eventually get it done. Its refreshing in a league and Players Association that fight about money they found something that matters more to them in this particular cause. Malik rose, thank you. Darrin kavinoky, this was a great debate. Its an important one. Fellows, thank you, well have you back for sure. Were dealing with that story thats going on, but there are other big stories to start your new day as well. Outrage after 200 nigerian schoolgirls have been taken, kidnapped from their own school. The violence is getting worse in ukraine. And how did a cold war spy plane snarl civilian flights . This is all going on, so lets get after it. His is the face of terror, bragging that he was behind the kidnappers. Im a young mother. I cant imagine any mother going through this. Its disheartening, shocking. Putin is many things, but hes not reckless. Civil war breeds civil war. Theres a single piece of equipment that failed. What i saw was mass trauma and broken bones. He was attempting to strike the window, the patient put her hand against it. Surprising that she survived the crash at all. Good morning. Welcome back to new day, its tuesday, may 6th. Up first, the United States is offering to help the Nigerian Government find more than 200 schoolgirls kidnapped by the al qaeda affiliate boko haram. The head of the terrorist kbrup is threat tong sell the groups in the name of allah triggering International Outrage and intense pressure on the Nigerian Government to bring these Children Home and do it right now. If its not too late already. Our coverage of the crisis begins in nigeria this morning. What is the latest . Reporter chris, as you saw from that despicable video, the supposed leader of boko haram is saying hes going to sell these 200 girls that his men kidnapped in the middle of the night from their dormitories in a remote, rural area in northeastern nigeria. Taking these girls in the dead of night into an area. The parents we have spoken to said all along their biggest fear in addition to not being able to get at their daughters even though they had a general idea of where they might be is that these women would be trafficked out of nigeria. With the release of the video where this man essentially says that he is going to a human market and that hes going to sell these girls because allah tells him to, the parents worst fears have been realized, chris. Thanks so much, laying it out for us where things stand. Joining us now to discuss from london, christiane amanpour, our chief international correspondent. I have to get your take on all of this. You have a group of young girls ages 15 to 18 years old. They have been kidnapped and they have been gone for three wee weeks. Why have they not been found . Reporter well, first and foremost, its really difficult because nobody quite knows where they have bone. They have gone to some forested area. But we really dont know. Will they really be sold on the open market . Probably unlikely given the immense publicity. But they certainly wont all be dealt with at the same time. In other words suddenly 276 girls are not going to appear somewhere so someone can rescue them. The fear is they are going to be broken up into small groups and. Or kept for a ransom if they can see that the world is incredibly interested in this, maybe they can parlay this into a ransom. The terrible thing is that nigerians have zero confidence in their government and dont believe that the government will actually do anything about it. In fact, it took immense pressure from the families, from protesters, more than three weeks for president johnson to come out publicly and saying in about it, which he did over the last few days. This is really whats upsetting the nigerian people. What is the reality, though, of that . It has been three weeks, which is unimaginable for these families. But as you said, this is a very difficult area. Boko haram has been a brutal al qaeda affiliate thats been terrorizing the country since 2009, i believe. Do you think theres fault on the government or are they up against something that they cannot manage on their own . Reporter i think a couple things. There is fault on the government. This has been going on since 2009. We have been covering it for that long. Suddenly now it is atrocious that this number of girls for the first time have been taken in one fell swoop. These girls have been abducted and people are being killed are sporadically and in smaller numbers for a great long period of time. Its an insurgency and the government has had very, very bad luck and a bad record fighting them. The big complaint is when the government launches some kind of operation against them, it does so in a manner that is so overwhelming that is so indiscriminant that ends up killing civilians and turning them against the government and thats one of the big problems. In addition, people who are experts have said that the kidnapping of girls did not start until the government as a tactic against boko haram starleted to kidnap, attack, kill female members of the group. And that is something that we havent heard until recently experts have been talking about it now that this has become so much in the public eye. You have president obama talking about, the secretary of state, the British Foreign secretary, the United Nations all of a sudden. This has been going on for a long time without this amount of help and attention. Very similar to what joseph kony did. You mentioned some of the help thats come manager from the outside. We hear from u. S. Sources that the United States is providing intelligence support to the government of nigeria to try to help them out. Is there more that you believe the United States or other nations could do . Reporter well, for sure intelligence help is going to be much required. Even if you can get some kind of surveillance there to see, unlikely, but whether there is a big group of girls being held somewhere. The danger is that they have been separated and being dealt with in smaller groups. Thats some of the speculation. There is a lot that the west, other allies of nigeria could do, including helping them in the kind of tactics against boko haram that might actually work without exacerbating an already bad situation. Also the government has shown a cavalier attitude towards it until it became so much a cause for outrage both in nigeria and around the world. You have all sorts of people weighing many. And they have behaved rather offhandedly. President johnson basically was seen, and this is a big criticism from people, the day that this was announced, president johnson was seen dancing at a political rally. He has not addressed the people for a long, long time about what they plan to do. Not just about this case, but about the general boko haram insurgency which is also putting bombs in capitals and other parts of the country. So it is a very dangerous situation that the people dont feel the government is up to in trying to, you know, try to provide some assistance and experience and advice to the government would be welcome. At the same time, you have the spotlight of the world on nigeria for this reason, but also this week, the spotlight was going to be on nigeria for a different region. Its set to host the economic forum. How does this all play into it together . Reporter well, you know, nigeria is africas biggest economy. Its a massively important country in that regard. Its a huge oil producer. It has massive resources and reserves. And i have interviewed the president several times. I have interviewed the finance minister several times. They have a massive problem of ungovern blt and corruption. Nigeria over the last several years has become democratic. It used to be a military dictat dictatorship. It is also incredibly ungovernable. The level of corruption is just staggering even by, im sorry to say, standards in africa, which are overwhelmingly more corrupt than for instance in asia and other parts of the world. Its just a fact and that has to be combatted. So much of their oil just gets stolen at the source. Barrels that are trying to be exported get siphoned off. Massive, billions of dollars are being stolen under the nose of the government. Thats a problem for the economy, but its also a problem in terms of having an army that can actually cope with the kind of authority it needs to impose on the country. The kind of tactics that would actually bare some results instead of, as i said, this indiscriminate attacks against boko haram, its become a big danger. You make such an excellent point. They have been dealing with this since 2009. A horrible threat that they are up against, but they have been dealing with it since 2009 and just now the world is paying attention to it as these 200 girls are caught in the middle of it. Thanks christiane amanpour. New this morning, Pay Attention to ukraine. Deadly clashes are breaking out as they attempt to clean up and restore order in the east. The violence is forcing the closure of a major airport among other huge problems on the ground. Can the west, including the u. S. , avoid getting involved on the ground . A new cnn poll shows war weary americans are in favor of offering help, but not of of the military variety. Arwa damon has the latest live from ukraine on the ground. Arwa . Reporter good morning, chris. We are just outside of that International Airport that was shut down this morning. Just a handful of flights leaving domestically from here and it will be shut down indefinitely. Exactly why, we dont know. We are not being given a specific explanation. Its contributing to the instability. A lot of the fighting between the Ukrainian Government forces and the prorussian militants centering two hours from where we are now. As Ukrainian Forces try to push into the city yesterday, they clashed with the prorussian militan militants. Casualties on both sides, but civilians being caught in the cross fire. This as global powers continue to blame one other. The west blaming the russians for the unrest thats happening here. It does seem to remain firmly in control of key strategic cities and locations within those cities. Chris . If it keeps going this way, as we all know, theres going to have to be more action. It cant be just about sanctions anymore. Well keep track of it. Be safe on the ground. Here at home, the federal aviation Administration Says it it discovered what led to delays and cancellations of flights across the country last week. The culprit, a cold war era spy plane that was flying through Los Angeles Air space. What . We are live in our Washington Bureau with details. I dont get it. I said it and i dont get it. A spy plane, a cold war era spy plane was in the skies over california and, as you said, its to blame for the faa computer glitch that paralyzed air traffic in Southern California last week. You remember flights were grounded, delayed and diverted at lax alone, the third Busiest Airport in the United States. More than 100 flights delayed. Officials were trying to fix this glitch for about an hour. Now the faa Computer System is important. It projects the flight path, it anticipates problems, essentially it helps controllers keep planes safely spaced apart. So the question is how did this spy plane fry the faas Computer System . We do know that the u2, it fooled the system making it think that it was much lower in a much more crowded air space, but the spy plane actually flies very high. 70 to 90,000 feet in the air, well above commercial air traffic. But the problem was its numerous altitude changes. It just simply overwhelmed the system. Further complicating things, there was a communications out a age. So nightmare for people last week. Now we know what caused it. The cause of it im sure theres still questions a bt why the spy plane was in the area to begin with. Maybe well hear more about that in coming days. Thank you. Lets get a look more of your headlines now beginning with the visibility upgrade for opposition on u. S. Soil. The liaison offices are being granted Foreign Mission status.

A new climate report offering alarming warnings about rising sea levels and changing temperatures. But what real impact will it have on policy . Thats coming up. You love this game.

Im going to have to rethink this thing. Its hard to imagine how much well need for a retirement that could last 30 years or more. So maybe we need to approach things differently, if we want to be ready for a longer retirement. If we want to be ready for a longer retirement. And i felt this horrible pain on one side of my back. I saw this red, blistery, rash i had 16 magic shows to do. I didnt know how i was going to be able to do these shows with this kind of pain that i was in. I told my wife what i had.

Investigators are revealing what led a human chandelier of circus aerialists to crash to the ground. Apparently a single clamp meant to secure the rig holding the aerialists by their hair failed injuring nine members. What caused it to fail . Why did this happen . Joining us to discuss is a high wire acrobat who completed the tight rope walk across the grand canyon essentially last summer with no safety harness. Nick, its great to see you again. Unfortunately, having to talk about this. Yeah, you know, its heartbreaking. Its heartbreaking any time you see accident. Especially when it hits so close to home. It does for you. Many people know your story. Your family has been struck with a tragedy. Your great grandfather, i believe was killed by a failed rig during a stunt himself. Thats correct. My great grandfather was walking between two buildings in puerto rico in 1978 and the initial cause for him to go down to the wire was the fact that the rigging was put up incorrectly. Its important that we as a group, as an industry, the circus industry as a whole, needs to group together and work in concordance with the government to come up with Safety Standards to follow. This particular incident, i dont know the exact details. We do know a part failed and that sometimes is out of our control. Its important that the government realizes as well that those performers had no control over what happened. Often the government will come in and say you need to wear safety or use a net. I have an uncle that fell into a net and bounced out and was killed. So a net doesnt necessarily mean youre safe. The majority of the accidents are not relate d to the performr itself, its the rigging. I want to ask you more about Safety Standards. That might be a bit controversial amongst some of your friends. I even heard you say some of your friends are going to be mad pr you suggesting that there should be more regulation. The thought is the government is going to make our lives so much harder and difficult and make us wear safeties. Thats why we have to step up as an industry and take the lead and work with the government so that i can tell you when i walked across niagara falls, it was mandated that i wear safety. They hired a company to come in and oversee that. The company had no clue what they were doing. I was scared of that walk because of that tether that they put on me and the way they put it on me. If they were willing to work with me, there would be been better ways to make that happen. But when outside resources tell you how to do something you have done for 200 years, it makes it difficult. I will tell you, and i remember when i came down to sarasota and we met, that was one thing we talked about. I would say manic about your rigging and safety and the people who you allowed to touch your rigs because it is so important to you and you care so much about the safety. Let me ask you just taking a step back. When you saw this video and you heard it was this clamp that failed, how does it fail, nick . You know, its hard to say. Theres been accidents in the past in our industry that related to crystallization where that part will get thrown into a box and that can have a hairline fracture not seen by the eye. Because of that, it can fail later on without anyone knowing why. Its under investigation. Its in a lab. They are going to research it and find out what happened. That could be the cause. Thats complete speculation. Thats kind of all we can do right now. I have headlined with ring ling brothers and they care immensely about their safety. I have done stuff with circumstance deso lay. There are standards and certain procedures to be put in place to make everything more safe. Its more about educating people. You talk about Safety Standards is there one thing that you could think if i said this would have prevented this accident from happening again, is there one thing . Absolutely. Even touring with different shows, i went up to riggers and say you cant throw that like that. You cant throw that in the box. They can fracture. Its about educating the people that are doing the rigging. Often the performers themselves and really educating them on how to do that. What are the proper procedures. Theres no such thing as a safety standard. I work with a minimal of 10 to 1 safety standard. If my cable is ready to break at 5 pounds, i will never put more than 1 pound of pressure on it. There are certain standards and its about educating the riggers and the performers so they know what to do, how to do it and what to look for. Its more about that. If anything that makes everything more impeding and much more dangerous. I have seen your work and i see how crazy you are in the good sense about your safety. Now you see unfortunately why when you see accidents like this happen when it had nothing to do with the aerialists in the air. It had to do with the rig holding them. Nick, it is always great to see you. Hopefully well be talking next time about your next big your next big daredevil event. He will be in chicago. Great to e see you nick. Good to see you. I dont know what drives that guy. I cant figure it out. Passion and genius. Hes fun. Coming up on new day, we have all been told a low dose of aspirin a day keeps the heart attack away. Maybe not.

Huge swing in emotion. Find out your home is destroyed, youre in shock and angry but then you realize were all alive. Wow. How about a little politic this is morning. Lets get to inside politics on new day with mr. John king. Good morning to you. A lot to cover. Lets get right to it. With me to share the reporting, julie pace of the associated press. Julie, the president will be outside the white house not talking to correspondents but to meteorologists and weather correspondents to push his agenda for Climate Change. The president is going to use executive authority to do most of what he wants to do. The former chief of staff now helping this president in the white house. Made a rare appearance to say yesterday if republicans in congress try to pass legislation to stop the president , they will fail. They will find various ways particularly in the house to try to stop us from using the authority we have under the clean air act. All i would say is those have zero percent chance of working. From a political standpoint, its good to see him back at the podium. What do they hope to accomplish . If the president has this power with his pen through executive authority and this issue is is so important to him, why do they wait so long . Why not do this in the first term . Thats a question we have been asking about a lot of issues when the white house talks about the year of action that they are having. If these things are so important, why didnt you do them earlier . On climate, theres some interesting politics when it comes to those. States like louisiana, where talking about renewable energy, new types of power like solar doesnt really play well when they have oildriven states. Were expecting from the white house this year some regulations in june on power plants. Thats one of the things that hes talking about the senate trying to block. There could be some other things that they will move down the line. They tried specifics and how broad and sweeping or will these be small measures. The president tries to move forward on this. Mary landrieu from louisiana, a tough race. They will look for chances here to stand up to the president and not help the president. Thats part of the problem. The president has missed an opportunity to really seize one of the most important issues facing our globe. Hes let politics get in the way. When you talked to him privately, his job is to educate the public to create a sense of urgency and have a common set of facts in the public so the next president and the president after that can accomplish this problem. Why didnt he start sooner . Well see how he does. Its a critical issue for the globe. Its primary day today. North carolina is the race the republican establishment is watching the most. Thom tillis is the speaker of the house and hes the establishment favorite. You see kay hagan. Republicans are hope iing if th tillis gets 40 today, they can focus on kay hagan. But its a crowded field and the effort to keep thom tillis below 40 , great reporting in the Washington Post this morning. Kay hagan voted for the health care law. But she is sending an attack mailing to voters in North Carolina saying that thom tillis once said nice things about the health care law. So she was for it and now shes using it as a weapon to keep tillis below 40 so they are fighting themselves and not her. Politics at its best, or worst, depending on how you look at it. We have seen it on both sides of the fence. Thats a good way to put it. Also on the ballot today, clay aiken. Hes in the primary in a House District as well. Peter is on the ground. He will be with us tomorrow. I want to move to the bigger climate for the midterm elections. We talked about it a lot. Sometimes when we talk about the poll numbers and the tough environment for the president , i get emails or tweets suggesting were making this up or that were all in the republican tank. I just want to do this. Its a bit redundant but we have a new poll out today that supports a poll we were talking about yesterday. The president s Approval Rating at 43 in the new cnn poll. We have seen him at 41, 42, 43, low to mid40s. This is whats driving the election climate. How are Economic Conditions in the country today . 38 say good, 62 say poor. Thats not just republicans. Thats a lot of democrats and a lot of independents who feel like they are treading water. That really you can talk about all kinds of issues that have come up. You can talk about health care and the government shutdown, but the economy is always the most important issue for americans. And when you look at jobs numbers, you look at the stock market and tend so see some things moving in positive directions, that means very little to a lot of americans. Even people who have jobs and havent lost their jobs arent feeling wages go up. They are feeling that their financial situation has gotten tighter. The numbers reflect what the white house is grappling with and what the democrats are grappling with. If the numbers stay relative, if i look at a president at 43. 62 say the economy is poor, i see the republicans pick up 12 seats in the house and probably the senate. Its a fact. If you look at all of history and all of Political Science with the numbers like that, the democrats are going to have a terrible year. Brand new numbers releasing this morning on new day. On the 2016 president ial field, look at this democrats. Choice for president , Hillary Clinton, way above. We wont even show you the other names. She was at 70 when we asked this question in january. Now shes at 64 . So shes come down a tad. My take is shes in the news almost every day. People are talking about her as a candidate so shes now a politician. That takes a little bit of luster off. Is that enough of a drop to convince a democrat to challenge her . No, the closer we get to the election, the more her numbers will come down. If she has nobody running against her, she will be fine. You have to have a lot of guts to run against her. I think in this environment, nobody is untouchable. I think she could be beat even in a primary. Its hard to see who is coming in. She was inevitable once, its called 2007. One of the interesting things and we saw more of it, a lot of people think the president is in her camp, not in her Vice President s camp. Every time Hillary Clinton was mentioned by the president of the United States, it was as if she was the inevitable nominee. Every time joe biden came up, it was as if hes the clear second choice. So hard to look at that any other way. The biden people were not happy. More fascinating to me, look at the republican numbers. They tell you theres no front runner in a party that normally has an orderly line of secession. Jeb bush at 13 . Rand paul at 13 . Mike huckabee at 10 . The thing that strikes me about this is jeb bush, paul ryan, mike huckabee, its 35 . All three of them might not run for different reasons. Rand paul at 13 . In a party we could say theres the favorite. Christies numbers. If it hadnt been for the bridge scandal, you know hed be at the top of the list. I dont think this is terribly surprising over the last couple of years. The Republican Party is still searching for exactly what its platform is going to be. As that debate shakes out over the next year, well see the numbers start to crystallize around someone. You cant pick a who unless you know what youre about. The republican race is wide open. As we get back to new york, heres our new chief Supreme Court correspondent seth meyers. The Supreme Court ruled today that public prayer, public prayer can be used to open official government meetings. That makes sense. A lot of people like to pray right before they go to sleep.

Coming up on new day, what do we got . An aspirin a day is suppose ed to keep heart attacks at bay, but the fda says that advice is not for everyone. Who should be taking aspirin . And provocative question, did jesus have a wife . I know you have a take, but is there any proof a tiny piece could be a christianity game changer. Is it a fake . Well show you and tell you.

Engineering and innovation jobs. Advanced Safety Systems technology. Shipping and manufacturing. Across the United States, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs.

First of all, good morning. Good morning. Has the thinking changed or why the back and forth . The thinking hasnt changed, but thats whats so breastin interesting. The makers of aspirin, they put a petition saying we want to be able to put on our bottles that this product, aspirin, can prevent a heart attack. And what they came back and said, this has been going on for some time, they have been look ing at the data trying to give an answer. Bottom line is that we dont think it actually prevents a first heart attack. If someone has already had a heart attack or stroke or known history of Heart Disease, they may be a candidate for aspirin. Not just for everybody as a preventive medicine. So put your professor hat on and give us how the aspirin works and what it does in the body. Its actually quite interest i ing. We take aspirin for granted. It comes from the bark of the willow tree. But whats fascinating is that our bodies are constantly in a state of clotting and not clotting. Clots are forming and clots are going away. What happens the concern is someone with hard disease could one of those clots cause a blockage of the blood vessel. It throws it to the nonclotting side. Youre likely to bleed more and prevent the clots from forming. Im never going to look at a willow tree the same. I had no idea. What led to the fda we leasing this reminder and say lets take another look at this. It really was this petition from bayer aspirin. They say, look, we looked at the data. Theres lots of studies on this. Does aspirin prevent first heart attacks and all that. We just dont think the data is strong enough. By the way, they say theres a little bit of a benefit, but tlls also a little more of a risk. Bottom line, theres folks at home right now with their cup of coffee and their morning pills. Who should be taking an aspirin a day . I should point out, there are different societies recommendsing different things. The Task Force Said all men between the ages of 45 and 79 and all women between the ages of 55 and 79 should take aspirin. Even if you have no history of Heart Disease. I used to take a baby aspirin a day. Im 44 years old. What the fda is saying i shouldnt take it unless i have any history of Heart Disease in my own body, not family history. Probably the chris cuomo. I appreciate youre looking out for him. He doesnt do the same for you. A lot of people have to. It takes a village. Theres the hate. It takes a village. I know who the real is. Everybody likes you so much. Bottom line, make sure you check with your medical profession is your best course of action. Absolutely. People take aspirin for granted, but it increases bleeding, ulce ulcers, its something you should talk to your doctor about. Thank you, dr. Sanjay gupta. He slipped in when his birthday is so we can plan the party. Nothing is an accident. It was all planned. This was also planned to be an intervention with chris. We dont have enough time. The list is so long. Part two of that interview coming up after the break. Im on so many pills. Vitamins and gummy bears. Sanjay has generations of my family loving him. My mom, my wife, my kids, Everybody Loves him. I cant handle all this love. He loves every bit of it. Look at the grin on his face. His words threatening my health. Who is the real chris cuomo . Thats the actual focus of the documentary i will be unveiling in november. Just kidding. I didnt recognize him without the weed behind him. Oh, would you stop. Hes just jealous because chris has not won the award that sanjay has for the weed documentari documentaries. His words get me right here and theres no pill that can save that. Its okay, christopher. Coming up on new day, was jesus married . An ancient scrap of history says so, but is it worth what its printed on . Get the story, straight ahead. Sea captain theres a narratorstorm cominhe storm narrator that whipped through the turbine which poured. Surplus energy into the plant which generously lowered its price and tipped off the house which used all that energy to stay warm through the storm. Chipmunk theres a bad storm comin narrator the internet of everything is changing how energy works. Is your Network Ready . Without standard leather. You are feeling exhilarated with frontwheel drive. You are feeling powerful with a 4cylinder engine. [ male announcer ] open your eyes. To the 6cylinder, 8speed lexus gs. With more standard horsepower than any of its german competitors. This is a wakeup call. Because its utterly unique, it made me first doubt whether the papyrus fragment might be authentic. Once we finally came to the decision that it said, jesus said to them, my wife it was really an astonishing moment. Hmm. Judgment the word papyrus is compelling. A clip from the documentary the gospel of jesus wife which premiered last night on smithsonian channel. It centers around the discovery of an ancient relic that suggests jesus had a wife, plain and simple. New evidence shows the centuries old document may be a forgery. Lets feel it out. Bring in a professor of theology at fordham university. Great to have you, professor. The first question before we get to the actual document. 33 years old, during that time, called rabbi, which was a term of respect for an elder. Should jesus have had a wife . Right. I dont think that jesus was married and i dont think thats a pious answer, or one coming out of religion but out of historical plausibility. He was an itinerate man, apocalyptic preacher and controversial things to say about marriage and family life that people needed to leave behind their father and mother to follow him, for example. So i do not think jesus was historic ilally married. Folks like john the baptist and others. We cant know for sure and new evidence is interesting for us. So we get to the proof tada what do you see in this . Sure. What do i see . A coptic fragment. A language of early ancient egypt and christianity flourished in egypt from the second century up until today. A fralment wigment with sayings family. Is this a language that you recognize . I certainly recognize the language of coptic. Yes. That says cnn . Is that problem, or no . Cnn. You know what . We missed that in our analysis earlier. Cnn. Now, breaking news, here on cnn. What i would say is that this document looks unprofessional. At a glance of someone who study the coptic, we thought it looked unprofessional. It does not necessarily mean fake, because there are a lot of unprofessional handwriting. Its a skill acquired. And not easy to figure it out. Right . What else do you look for here . The main line everyone was focusing on was this one right here. If i advance it, i think well know what the quote is, right . Yes. That line supposedly says, jesus said my wife, she will be able to be my disciple. No doubt, those terms are there. What we dont have is the context of what surrounds this text. So initially people said, well, it could say jesus said to them, my wife is the church, or my wife is my community of followers, or my wife is mary magdalene. We dont know what it said. A lot of people said that about mary magdalene. She got implicated in the notic gospels, a whole division of christy themselves. They didnt want you to know those people. One positive thing to take from all this, it directs peek peek people to the texts of the gospel of mary and others. Do you believe this papyrus is authentic. What suggests it is not. We have been very busy this week, especially a couple folks in germany. An american scholar and a romanian did a lot of work analyzing this fragment over here. What this is, is a second fragment that was part of the anonymous donors collection. A gospel of john fragment in coptic and we were told a year and a half or so about this this is a run of the mill fragment we have lots of. When this one went up online a couple weeks ago, on harvards website, that was the first they had seen this. They have shown definitively this one is a forgery. That harvard had it . Yale, would have been much more legit . We wont make this a yale harvard thing. Least not today. I have Great Respect for a world class scholar, and others who saw it with their own eyes were great scholars as well. I am not here to criticize them. What i want to show is just one spot here. You can see theres a hole in this fragment and you can see a word is written kind of around the hole. This little n is underneath the hole. On the other side of the fragment, i presume in forger wrote right through the hole. We have really usual scribal practice that i dont think any of us have seen another example of, Something Like that. The same donor gave you something that he said or she said was legit. Youve found out it is not, which, of course, casts doubt on this on top of Everything Else about it, so you dont buy it . Thats right. All the pieces that seemed to be dubious at first were now more dubious than we before. Made manifest by the fact that its source collection is also seen to be problematic. Right. The prominance is the question Going Forward. Who is this donor . Do we need to know more about this person . Are there other forgeries we need to be concerned about . Historically, this document, supposed to be a big uhhuh we probably dont believe and the plural of pooh papyrus is papyri. Did you know that, kate . Of course i did. Coming up next on new day returning to one of the big stories weve been watching throughout the morning, throughout this week, really. The u. S.

Taking the girls in the middle of the night, the parents told us they were worried their children might be in this very dense forest bordering cameroon and nigeria, but now with the release of this despicable video by the supposed leader of boko haram, he mentions hell sell the girl, the parents fear their children may now be in cameroon. Heres how the story unfolded. His is the face of terror. The leader of the islamist mill trant group boko haram, bragging that he was behind the kidnappings. I abducted your girls he says with a smile. I will sell them in the market by allah. Nearly 300 schoolgirls ages 15 to 18al taken at gunpoint from their boarding school in nigeria three weeks ago. Another malicious attack orchestrated by this violent Jihadist Group which Authorities Say terrorized nigeria since 2009 killing thousands of incident civilians.

Reporter still unclear the number missing, whether any have been sold and exactly where they might be triggering anger and raises questions whether the Nigerian Government can rescue these girls. This is an outrage and tragedy and we are doing what we can to assist the Nigerian Government to support its efforts to find and free the young women who were abducted. Reporter the repugnant act of terror igniting International Outrage. Protesters taking to the streets across africa, europe and the United States. Eyes are watching reporter the hash tag, bring back our girls pgirls h viral online, galvanizing with famous faces calling for immediate action. Chris, the nigerian president spoke to the people for the first time in three weeks just a couple nights ago. He sounded confident when he said they would bring these girls home, but he also admitted he didnt know where they were, and many people believe now its a question about optics. Three weeks, havent said a lot about what theyre doing to rescue these girls and now just basically trying to tell the people as outrage grows they will do something but implored help from the United States and other countries in the region, chris. Often in politics, perception is reality. Thats why we have to press for more answers. Vladimir thank you very much. Be safe on the ground. Bring in the director of african programs for peace. John, very good to have you here with us. Take one step backwards and explain how did did we get to this place . About april 14th. What do we know about this group . How they were able to break into the school, the security there . What happened to enable them to take so many people. So boko harams roots go back to the early 2000s but they really started this kind of violent activity in 2009. And for the past five years, theyve been a menace throughout Northern Nigeria, especially this year. Were looking at about 1,500 people tilled by boko haram this year in northern nigh jieae. Probably around 4,000 or so over the last five years. Now, how exactly they broke in to this school still, i think is an open question. Still raises a lot of questions about the Nigerian Government the capacity to respond to this terror. Boko haram loosely translated is western education is sin. Right . So obviously, this would be right in their wheelhouse in terms of what kind of example they want to make. The next level of it is, where could they be keeping them . Wipe would it be so difficult to detect such a large number . Is it about intelligence on the ground . Is it about the nature of the environment there . Why cant they find this group . Well, nigeria is a large place and a very populated place. About 175 million people. The largest population in africa. Of course, complicating this further as your correspondent said, theres three countries close by. Niger, chad and cameroon, aened they could be in those countries as well. Theres also limited access to parts of Northern Nigeria, because of the boko haram threat. Some of those states have been under a state of emergency over the past 11 months. So unfortunately it is quite a challenge to find even a couple hundred people in an environment like that. It is a challenge, assuming you were trying what do you make of reports that the government is lax here, that families and others have been intimidated for coming forward so as to not make it seem as though nigerias government is not up to the task . Do you believe those reports . Well, there have been a lot of accusations that the government has not been as responsive to the boko haram threat as it should be, and this is not just related to this incident. This is over the past few years, and especially related to the tragedies that have happened this year. And politics starts to play into this as well. The president is from the southern part of the country. Not the northern part of the country. So that leads to accusations, and theres also elections planned in nigeria for next year. So the politics starts to complicate all of this. Now, finding the girls. Okay . That lets be honest. I keep calling them girls. Thats the parent in me. If they are from 15 to 18, these are young women, makes them even more vulnerable because theyll be more susceptible to a group of men like this and more marketable, perhaps, if they are trying to sell them. Whats the best way to know if thats just an empty threat or if there are markets available to that kind of sale, networks to be communicated with . What do we know . Unfortunately a suspect there probably are some markets for this kind of thing, sadly. Another concern here is that boko haram is thought to have linkages to other extremist groups that operate a little further north and elsewhere in africa, but, again, the intelligence here is really limited, i think. And some of the offers from the u. S. And abroad and elsewhere to share intelligence is helpful. Whats particularly important is that some of those neighboring countries are collaborating with the nigerians as well. Especially if some of the girls have crossed over the borders . Is the u. S. Doing enough . Does it need to do more . If so what . It does seem theres a sense of urgency to try to be as helpful and possible and secretary of state kerry was in africa over the past week, and this was certainly on his agenda, and he answered several questions about it. I think part of the question, too, is how willing is the Nigerian Government to accept a lot of assistance from abroad, because that starts to raise questions about their own competence in responding to this, and it starts to look like their sovereignty might not be completely intact and its a bit of an embarrassment for them. My hope were that they would be very willing to sen any sort of assistance given the gravity of the situation. Right. Embarrassment has to take second seat to abject shame, what there must be on the ground, you have your children, must vulnerable, taken like this. Jon, youll know about this situation faster than probably even we will. Please, keep us in the loop to be asking the right questions to keep pressure on and bring the girls back home. Really young women. Jon timen, thank you very much. And proseparatists seem to be lining up to protect key areas in ukraine. The violence forced a major airport to shut down.

First responders are describing what it was like. This video is very disturbing. They were in shock. They didnt expect their equipment to fail.

We have an entire safety crew thats dedicated to traveling to all of our units to make sure that steps are taken. All of our equipment is inspected. Each and every time we load into a new arena. Reporter but osha says one of the things they will look at in this investigation is whether there should be more. Osha says, we will provide a safe workplace for all americans. If it involves more regulations, that is important. And the ringling brothers and barnum and bailey circus cancelled all remains performances in rhode island.

Just into cnn, a major white house report on Climate Change has just been released. The Obama Administration unveiling its National Climate assessment detailing how Climate Change impacts every part of the country. Cnns jim acosta is live at the white house with all of the details. So, jim what is in the report . Whats it telling us . Reporter well, kate, the president is going to be issuing, really, a call for action later today when he sits down with a group of meteorologists from around the country trying to get the word out that the weather for this country is going to be getting worse and worse over the coming decades as a result of are manmade Climate Change. Heres the report right here. We even have it in clerp fin cou kate. The new National Climate abscessmeabsces assessment from the white house. It talks about what the country can expect over the coming decades if action is not taken right away. Here are some of the warnings from this white house. In this report, that sea levels will rise one to four feet by the year 2100. That intense heat waves and droughts in the southwest are on the way, and increase in storm intensity and rainfall rates and even icefree summers in the arctic ocean over the coming decades, if nothing is done. The white house already pointing out that temperatures have gone up at least, or almost, two degrees since the year 1895, but that most of that occurred in the last 30 or 40 years. So theyre trying to really drive home the point that theres really an urgent case for action, and youll hear the president talking about that later today when he sits down for those interviews, but as you know, kate, this is fraught with politics. Republicans accusing the president of waging a war on coal and a lot of nervous democrats running for reelection who wish this president would do more on the side of developing Energy Resources in this country, and not really going after Climate Change so much. Kind of both of those points, jim. So the white house puts out this report. Its a big report. Described as kind of the biggest assessment in probably a decade on Climate Change. On a new website, a big push by the administration. What are they actually going to plan to do about it in response to their findings and how are they going to pull it off . Because we know republicans have long thought environmental renv long fought environmental regulations by this administration . Reporter one thing coming up from this white house in june, imposing new limits on coal fired power plants across the country. Those power plants, the Energy Sector, republicans up on capitol hill, theyve really fought that tooth and nail, but the courts have really cleared the way for that to go into effect. As you know, kate, the president s climate agenda has been stalled in congress. Hes not getting cap and trade. They try to doic things throug executive action. Raise fuel efficiency standards. That sort of thing. Youll hear the president say hes got commitments from private companies to use more solar energy, better building methods. The small ball things the president can do without the authorization of the senate and house. As you know, kate, a big issue of the keystone oil. Iline is weighing out there and the president has basically kicked that ball down the field, has said he wont make a decision until this Court Dispute is settled out in nebraska, where the route of that pipeline has environmentalists happy but a lot of nervous red state democrats running for reelection, and these Key Senate Races saying, hey, wait a minute. We need that approved. This is a very tricky balancing act for this white house, when it comes to Climate Change. A tough issue for any president , for sure. Especially with the divided congress. Jim acosta at the white house. New details coming out of the white house just out in on a Climate Change report going up on its website. Well work with that throughout the day. Jim, thank you. Coming up on new day, coverage of the search for flight 370 has slowed, because the search has slowed. A big meeting tomorrow to figure what they will do next.

Your ticket to a better nights sleep go to have you with us. Meeting tomorrow, determining the framework for future flight 370 search operations. Theyre expected to reexamine data and determine where this search area will be among other things. Here to break down, oh, all the possibilities, miles obrien, cnn aviation analyst and david soucie also an aviation analyst, author of why planes crash and former inspector at the if aar. You t faa. Up two are meeting for the first time. Thought he was a holograph. We dont know that. And talk about the strategy. Reinvigorate, new tools, probably more money. Lets start with the data. Theyre likely going to reanalyze the data. Do you assume well see a variance in what weve seen, david, or the flight path will change . I think its more about the awe sum assumpti assumptions. Theyve looked at it and made adjustments. I think the assumptions how fast it was flying and how high it was flyings those are the things theyll look at again to see if they have information from other countries that havent told us things yet. Thats mostly what the changes that will happen, if they do. The assumptions would change the math, which could change the outcome. Right, miles . Its important to have fresh eyes. Agreed. I mean outside the investigation. Weve been calling for a long time inmarsat releases the data. Theres all kinds of proprietor reasons, crash investigations protocol but we need fresh eyes. Why not have a Blue Ribbon Panel and challenge every assumption . Doesnt make sense them dragging their heels. Its the way crash investigations are done. We have the malaysian culture, not an open society on top of that, as a result a lot of this has been held back. Inmarp s. A. Inmarsat has impropriety aspects as well. We get that. But this can be done. One of the things ive done is asset management. Resource management. The difficulty in releasing that, then you have to react to it. If youre going to ask a question, you have to be expected to answer it. If youre going to put it out there, lets see what you think, you have to be prepared to answer those things when they come back to you. That takes resources and maybe thats what it is. Talk about the resources. Interesting when you say talk about reinvigorating the plan, reassessing the data and bringing in new tools. You just talked about the logistics of coordinating Something Like that. I was imagine that is a massive undertaking to coordinate all of those resources, especially if theyre bringing in additional ones, and more towed ping locators and such. Talk about the management of that. Well, its mostly right now about positioning. When do you send the ocean shield back out . What do you put ton when you go out . You dont want to be stuck like they were last time with just the bluefin. They dont know how deep it is. It hasnt been mapped yet. They need to make sure they have all the tools when they go out so they dont waste another week going back and forth. Thats a concern. We know more about the surface of the moon than we do at the depths that were going. At the very least, we need a good map. If theres a deep valley there, for example, that might explain how those ping noises prop gaited ovgait propagated over those areas. They can travel in the hundreds of kilometers under the right circumstances. So the fact that those pings were heard in that one spot, we cant presume theyre just right below there, and thats part of what has to happen. Because, again, we know the ocean and the water plays, and the currents play with the sound, et cetera. Except for that twohour one. The most probable one but they couldnt get there. It was too deep. Thats why they went for the center one. Not necessarily the best one. The best one they had with the tools onboard. Both of you, since we have the benefit. Armchair athletes on monday, you know . What would you like to see aside from some of this data being let out for peer review . What else would you like to see in the new strategies . Fresh eyes on the data for sure. I would like to see, its time to step up the game, betofget the resources on site. Theres only a handful of devices that can do this tank and theyre still not there yet. Theres not a lot of time to do that before winter. It will take time to get them. And may not happen until after winter, which is a sad statement. Maybe this is a good time to rethink about all that. As, marching forward, i think there has to be an honest appraisal of whos going to pay the bills here . 60 million seems low to me, tea. The bills will run up and theyre reluctant to talk about this thing. Whos going to pay this . Because there are families involved in all this and this is an important factor. Because theyre in cam bebara good clue. Thats what the capitol is, and the meeting is. This is a plan by australia. Id like to see one icc, uninspector in charge of it all. Not one for the search, one for the gathering of information. Thats whats happening. All of this stuff, nobody has everything in one plate. One hand doesnt know what the others doing. Angus houston has done an excellent job. If it was me i would vote for him to take over the entire investigation. Its within malaysias purview to release in to him. Lets put david and miles in charge. Delighted to have you both here. Thanks for sticking with us and covering this with us. Miles, david, thanks. Coming up next on new day, if you do the crime, you do the time, but should you have to do the time . If the system completely forget you for more than a decade . And then comes calling . This is a real story. An incredible one. The man at center of it all, Mike Anderson, is joining us live, next. D it right away we cannot let the fans down.

This may be a story unlike any other ive ever heard in this category before. Here it is. Back in 2000, Mike Anderson was convicted of armed robbery. Thats not unusual. And he did the crime, but what about the time . His sentence was 13 years but he never went to prison. Why . Because no one took him there. Why . Because the state already thought he was in prison, because of a clerical error. So what does he do during the time he was free . Keeps on robbing . No. He marry, raises a family, starts his own business and was an upstanding member of the community. 13 years later the state realizes its mistake, decides to put him in prison to serve the original sentence, but a judge steps in just yesterday, recognizes his exemplary behavior during his 13 years of freedom and releases hil s him. That is the story. The man is Mike Anderson and he is here with us, with considerably less hair than you had in that video. Bizarre tale. Yes. Take all the interesting turns from the beginning. You robbed the burger king. Why . I was young and thats something i dont even like to talk about, because to me once again it does a disservice to the people involved. Es special lit gentleman, something hes been trying to get over for the last 14 years or put behind him and to have this out there, him to have to relive this does a disservice to him. Thats was you in your past . Thats not who i was. It was just something that should have never happened. But it happened. Yes. You get tried. Yes. Youre convicted. Yes. You think youre going to prison. Yes. 13 years. Yes. What was that doing to your head in terms of what life was going to be like for you . A the that point in my life it was, you know, something i knew i couldnt fathom 13 years. I always thought it was harsh. Theres people out there, ive seen guys on seconddegree murder that had ten years. They pled out to ten years. Were offered ten years. Something i couldnt fathom at any time. Going through the appeals process. Its not unusual, especially if you have a lawyer and a little money to stay out pending the appeal of a sendetence. When its done it happens to you. Thats what you thought would happen. That day comes. The appeals exhausted. What happens . What happened was, my attorney was at court, it was my attorney, the judge, and the prosecutoring attorney for st. Charles. The judge asked both where is mr. Anderson . My attorney handed her his briefs and physically told him mr. And zoerson is out on bond. No. My office checked. Hes currently in fulton with the department of correction. Thats where they thought i was. Actually that day i called my attorney to ask how court went. He said, wait, youre not in prison . He said in prison . He said you need to come in and talk to me. After two days i went in, talked to him. Man, for the last two days ive called the department of correction, the Marshals Office. Theyre saying youre there. Im saying youre not. The Marshals Office wont pick you up. Theres no warrant. Its a mistake. Theyll figure it out. Be prepared to be picked up. So a dozen years go by. Yes. How often was this hanging over your head, that todays the day . Todays the day . For the first couple of years, a thought always in the back of my mind, but as the years went on, it didnt get easier. It just got just seemed a little bit more natural, or you know, just more, have they forgotten about me . It was just, i had to just do the right thing. I had to prove to everyone that that wasnt who i was, and i can do the right thing. Interesting. How motivating was it to you to know that today may be your last chance to prove yourself . Right . Because every day could have been the day that they yoked you back to do your time . Yes, yes. So what was that like, as motivation . You know, them pulling me back was motivation, but my main motivation was, i turned my life around. I gave my life to the lord, and i didnt want to do anything that displeased god. I didnt want to do anything that was disfavorable to him and that was my motivation. You didnt need the fear of going to prison . You already decided to make a change in yourself . Yes. So years go by. Youre doing all the right things. Yes. Tell me about the call where they say, we made a mistake. Well, there was no call. A knock at the door. It was about 6 30 in the morning. Me and my 2yearold daughter at the house. I heard the knock on the door. I was at the top of the stairs just getting out of bed. I saw the shadows and said, who is it . They said u. S. Marshals open up or its coming down. Hold on. Let me turn the alarm off. Soon as i unlocked the door, they pushed the door open. Hey, man, you got the wrong guy. No, we dont. Looked down, remember 13 years ago, and soon as he said that, thats when it hit me. What goes through your head . What goes through your heart when you hear those words . My family. That was the only thing i could think about. My wife and children. What is my wife going to do . How is my family going to react . Especially my children. Did your wife know about what had happened . No, she didnt know. Oh. She had never heard this story . No. Never heard the story itself, no. So now what happens . Now they take me to fulton. Straight from the house they took me downtown. The security were told to hand me over to the nearest department of corrections. Downtown didnt want me. They said, we dont deal with this. Not taking this guy. An a half hour argued on the phone, took me to the federal building. Still messed up. Still messed up. Called the city, the county of st. Charles, told them we dont house people overnight. Just house them for court. If you arent here by 2 00 were letting him out. You get a judge who actually has a mind for justice being about a rehabilitative process. Right . Yes. Because not all of them believe that. Exactly. But this one does. Were you surprised that the judge took aing who at your life and said you know what . This was the goal anyway. This is the unknown reality for people who wind up being incarcerated what could they have made of their lives . Yes. Were you surprised you got a break . I wan surprised. I walked by faith this whole time. My family and i. I walked in faith we had favor from god and man. It was pleasant. I paid attention to everything he said. He was very ar tick articulate. He details the law. Once he said youre free to go, Everything Else went out. Thats all i needed to hear. Two quick thing. People will say, no, you did the crime, should have done the crime. Youre a righteous man, you know youre supposed to pay for your sirns. Its unfair you didnt do it. What do you say . You know, people are always going to have hardened hearts. I cant change their view. God cant even if theyre hearts are hardened. I just i just hoped that they can instead of looking at what happened now, 15 years now, i hope they can look at what ive been doing for the last 14 years of my life. How old were you when this happened . Just turned 22. Last question. Yes. What were you more scared of . Doing that time in jail or what your wife was going to do to you when you got out and found out you hadnt been telling about this . I was more afraid of the wife. More afraid of losing my wife, children, my home, everything. Its part joke, part not. You built all of this stuff and could have lost it in a flash. Yes. But you didnt. I didnt. Thank god. Whats the big dream Going Forward . This is done. Its not there anymore. Got to have a new nightmare. I just want to get back to work. I want to get back to using my hands, using the gifts, quality es and talents that god blessed me with and give my wife a wellneeded vacation. Got a lot of leverage here. A lot of leverage. Different kind of prison now. Leverage for new handbags, new jewelry. Everything. Mr. Anderson, you are a truly free man and i appreciate you telling us its story, because this is the myth. Right . What could people do with their lives if given another chance . We usually never find out. We did with you. Thank you. Thank you. Well be right back. In pursuit of all things awesome, amazing, and thats epic, bro, weve forgotten just how good good is. Good is setting a personal best before going for a world record. Good is swinging to get on base before swinging for a home run. [ crowd cheering ] good is choosing not to overshoot the moon, but to land right on it and do some experiments.

Theres only so much enamel on a tooth, and Everybody Needs to do something about it now if they want to preserve their teeth. I recommend pronamel because it helps strengthen the tooth and makes it more resistant to acid breakdown. We want to be healthy and strong through the course of our life, and by using pronamel every day, just simply using it as your toothpaste, you know you will have that peace of mind.

Its a brilliant new way to take care of his teeth. Clinically proven as effective as brushing. Ok, here you go. Have you ever seen a dog brush his own teeth . The twist and nub design cleans all the way down to the gum line, even reaching the back teeth. They taste like a treat, but they clean like a toothbrush. Nothing says you care like a milkbone brushing chew. [ barks ] all right. Time for the good stuff. Todays edition. We often tell you about bad stuff coming from elected officials. A story about one doing something good. Oregon governor, he was heading to dinner and spotted a woman lining prone on the street. What does he do . Jumps out of his car, tells his security to call 911 and goes right to work. Definitely surprised to see him there. The governor was able to assist the ventilations and it was great work by the governor. I was proud to see him do his work. Big work in emt training, why the governor kept performing cpr until they arrived. If it wasnt gore the govefor t the young lady would be dead. He issued a statement saying the governor is glad the woman is okay, wishes her well. Very glad to be in the right place at the right time to be able to help her. He was. But he also did the right thing. Thats why its good stuff. You get a lot of criticism in politics. Take the praise when it comes. The woman suffering from a drug overdose, has addiction issues. Now because of the chance the governor gave her, shes going to get help. Even better. The good stuff. Ladies and gentlemen, time for newsroom with ms. Carol costello. Looking beautiful in blue today.
