He was arrested for shoplifting. This couple brought their bay while they stole video games. Was that worth it . We hope you have a great weekend. Fox friends starts now. Hi everyone. Good morning. Today is friday, the 17th of october, 2014. Im anna kooiman in for elisabeth hasselbeck. We begin with a fox news alert. The ebola scare spreads nationwide. How one case in texas has quickly spread into a multistate nightmare shutting down schools and forcing businesses to close. The first person to ever catch ebola in the United States, that nurse who tried to help, now speaking from her hospital bed. That is her. Her message to doctors and people all across the United States and around the world, youll see it here first. A heart stopping moment caught on camera. A u. S. Marines close call with a taliban sniper. Get back how that helmet saved his h. I. V. Meanwhile how that helmet saved his life. Meanwhile mornings are better with friends. Hi. This is alan alda, youre watching fox friends and sometimes me too. Im a friend. We havent seen him for awhile. Hes probably in the hamptons hanging out with billy joel. It is friday and great to have you. It just takes one. Thomas duncan lied on that declaration and got into the United States. He had ebola at the time. And then he went to that hospital in texas where he eventually died. The Ripple Effect of his single ebola case is a fox news alert because thrj morning there is a cruise ship that has been trying to dock in belize but they wont let it in because a
texas Health Care Worker who may have handled one of his blood specimens has selfquarantined herself in the cruise ship. It is believed to be that ship, the carnival magic which can hold up to 5,000 people. The Health Care Worker is not exhibiting signs and is part of that selfMonitoring Program and isnt showing symptoms or feeling achey but is so scared that decided to quarantine themselves and the United States government has asked belize please help us in this situation to get this passenger off of the cruise ship, and they say no way. Were about 19 days in now since that Health Care Worker might have been in contact with duncan who sadly has passed away. Then you wonder about the other Ripple Effect. Two of the nurses that came in contact with duncan, at least two, that tested positive for ebola and are being treated are now retracing their steps and
who they were in contact with. For example, when amber was able to whom on a flight after able to hop on a flight after going to c. D. C. And getting the goahead even though the head of c. D. C. Said she shouldnt have been cleared and go to ohio to get ready for her wedding, retracing her steps, first off the plane she was on. That plane had her, she disembarked. She goes about her business, frontier goes on these other flights so every one of those passengers on those seven nights is being contacted by frontier, told they could have been contacted with ebola. Sounds like the airline is doing more than the c. D. C. Wants them to. Now they are notifying people on seven other naits. The cleveland plain dearly has this jawdropping fact. That is that airplane made 26 flights before the c. D. C. Said that she may have been on it. Right now frontier is reaching out to 700 or 800 people saying they could be
at risk. And taking out the carpet and seat covers on the plane. That is what Frontier Airlines is faced with. The schools in ohio, there are thee of three of them that have closed yesterday and today. Also three employees at Kent State University related to amber vinson have been asked to stay off campus. Vinson never went to Kent State University but you see how this web is getting bigger. Amber went to more stops, had a lot to do including the wedding place to look at bridal gowns. She also went to the p. N. C. Bank. She went over there and the branch closed. Everyone has been told to work from home. A p. N. C. Employee was on the same night she took and that is why they have closed the facility until monday. Also the reason they closed the schools in ohio is because one of the kids and
their parent were on one of the flights, and just as a precaution, because the flight was, i believe, on monday, the kid went to school on tuesday, they started freakin out on wednesday, they closed the school on thursday and its going to be closed again today as well. Think about all the people that have been affected, how all these businesses are going to be affected, schools. Its been unbleefnl unbelievable because thankfully were getting up for the past two days and not talking about another positive case of ebola. Both nurses have been transferred to different facilities. Nurse amber vinson now at atlantas emory hospital and nurse nina pham has been sent to the National Institutes of health in maryland. Casey steegal is live. Reporter brandnew video coming in to us from inside nina phams hospital room here in dallas. She was the first nurse to
be diagnosed with ebola. Watch. [inaudible] an emotional goodbye. Right after that the 26yearold was suited up in beau hazard gear biohazard gear and flown to the university of maryland for further treatment. Her colleague, 29yearold amber vinson transferred to Emory University hospital the day before. She is the one who flew on two Frontier Airlines planes, who went to ohio to visit her family, plan her wedding and flew back to dallas there cleveland. She claimed that the c. D. C. Cleared her for travel. Now the c. D. C. Says that she is not entirely truthful in terms of how she was feeling when she went on that trip. Now Health Officials are reaching out to as many as 800 Frontier Airlines passengers who were on both flights with her and also the other flights that you mentioned on those same aircraft as the plane continued on to other cities before it was clear what was going on and the airline pulled them from service for sanitizing. All of this happening as the 75 other medical Staff Members here at texas Health PresidentPresbyterian Hospital had contact with Thomas Duncan forced to sign legal papers, we are told, legal papers that say they will stay in their homes and they will abide by this selfquarantine for 21 days. A judge here in texas saying that those documents are legally binding. All right. Thank you very much. Casey saying essentially what the daily news is saying on the cover keep
calm and carry on. These Health Care Workers are being asked to sign these legal documents and part of it says they need to stay calm. The white house was saying keep calm and carry on and now theyre doing the drop everything approach. Yesterday among the people asked to testify in front of a House Committee was Thomas Frieden. The big question was, i feel almost relieved because as great as Thomas Frieden is as a person and as accomplished he is, he is frustrating to talk to because he talks in rhetoric, talks in generalities. And were trying to get to the bottom of why the president and why Thomas Frieden are so against a travel ban. Listen. You were involved in conversations with the white house about a travel ban. Did they rule it out . Are they still considering it . From the c. D. C. s perspective we will consider anything that will are you going to answer the question about your conversations with the white house . We is the white house
considering a travel ban . I cant speak for the white house. Do you know if they ruled out a travel ban . I cant speak for the travel ban. Have you had conversations with them about it . We discussed the issue of travel. ni you see finger pointing there. Is it frieden or is it president obama who is against imposing this sort of travel ban . One of the reasons the white house is giving for not putting it in place is it will make us less safe to have this because people will be less likely to be honest about where they have been traveling from. There you see the president of the United States. He spoke from the oval room. That is burwell, director of health and human services. On his left is Thomas Frieden. As it turned out earlier in the day the White House Press secretary josh earnest said that frieden for the most part is responsible for the problems weve had. Weve seen this with other stories. We messed up, somebody
dropped the ball, we fumbled and the person is not held accountable. Who is responsible for these shortcomings . Youve seen in a couple of instances dr. Frieden take responsibility for the c. D. C. Not performing up to expectations. At the same time the c. D. C. Has been focused on the situation since march. Maybe that is why the president yesterday said hes considering putting someone in charge, an ebola czar. The president has canceled more appearances, is focusing on this singlehandedly. It is a very unique thing to see him change gears, not since the texas oil disaster in the gulf of mexico. That was going on inside the white house. Outside the white house there were protesters. Look at that guy in the ebola containment suit. Stop the flights. Whats curious is i was reading yesterday, you know how the president doesnt want to do the travel ban, but how are they able to contain ebola just in west africa . You know how . Because the other countries in africa closed their
borders. And the ivory coast, guinea bisseau and other countries ravaged by it closed their borders. Its working in africa. Heather, youve got other news. Weve been following these stories for you this morning. The meteoric rise of isis, gulf war 3, some of the topics in the newly released video featuring a british hostage. It is the fifth and a series of videos. The hostage journalist is reading the message like any other news anchor. This time he speaks of how quickly isis has grown in size and scope, and the United States he says is just in the early steps of what will undoubtedly become an allout war. This latest propaganda video comes as isis claims responsibility for a wave of attacks in baghdad, the
most recent one a series of car bombs leaving 14 civilians dead. A raleigh man facing up to 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to conspiring to help terrorists. Jordan was planning on giving Material Support to terrorists in syria or yemen. The 22yearold arrested after speaking with an f. B. I. Informant about his terrorist desires. Law enforcement later finding weapons and ammo in his apartment. New fallout from the botched fast and furious operation. A new Judicial Watch report revealing a gun used in a 2013 shooting in arizona came from that gun running operation which the Justice Department createed to track illegal traffickers in mexico. Back in 2010 the operation led to the death of Border Patrol agent brian terry. Finally on a lighter note, what a cone head . People living in brooklyn, new york, in a neighborhood there theyre furious a guy
keeps reserving his parking spots with an orange cone. He doesnt even live this saying he has a maintenance job in the area. The car has a sticker on the front shield that reads drive it like you stole it. The man says he does this with every new car he tbies to protect it new car he buys to protect it. Almost looks like a dukes of hazard car. All hes doing is putting a cone out. Being a cone head. Weve got a new show. How prepared are our nations hospitals to handle ebola . The doctor that says dont bring them to my state; we arent qualified. Does this look like a lunch to you . Because of the new government guidelines, this is exactly whats being served to children.

Fox news alert, a shocking number of Health Care Workers 50 it is estimated at the dallas hospital that treated the first u. S. Ebola patient may have been exposed to the deadly virus. 50 that according to the c. D. C. Director Thomas Frieden who earlier this week praised the preparedness of hospitals across the country when it comes to dealing with ebola
patients. If this one individual was infected and we dont know how, within the isolation unit, then it is possible that other individuals could have been infected as welling. Of course. But dr. Richard ridge says ebola patients should be sent to the specific facilities trained to take care of people with ebola and things like that. Good morning to you. Well talk about that in a moment but i was thinking about people in your business because youre the head of the states nurses association. How did you feel a couple of days ago when frieden threw the nurses down in texas under the bus by saying if they would have followed the rules, they wouldnt be sick. They followed the rules. My phone started ringing saturday morning, nurses very upset in reaction to what the c. D. C. Director said. He later backpedaled but the initial charge that some breach must occurred. Unfortunately, blame the nurses was the first approach. We feel it was unjustified. We feel that is sometimes what happens. We dont really know all the facts yet but they were using protective equipment, they got infected and he later retracted that initial statement. When it comes to the nurses what are the main concerns when handling somebody who has ebola. Today the main concern probably is getting the right history because patients present every day with the same symptoms. Fever, general muscle weakness. Those symptoms characterize many illnesses and so you have to screen them out and get the history. Especially during the cold and flu season. There was a quote flying out there, if somebody has ebola, put them in an ambulance and ship them where they need to go. Totally mischaracterized. That was attributed to me. What i have said
specifically what we do in new jersey today, you get medevacked to a specialized burn center if you have burns. This is no different. We would medevac that patient appropriately as we saw later on in the week the c. D. C. Finally sent those patients to, one to atlanta and one to maryland. There are four hospitals that have biocon taibbiment centers but dr. Frieden first said any hospital in america would be fine, any hospital can handle it. Do you agree . Hes partially correct in the sense that any hospital is prepared to handle the initial phase of screening patients, identifying the patient, isolating the patients and then testing them. Once theyre tested, however, i would disagree with him, and they need to be sent them to the place thats got the right facilities. Which they have started doing as of thursday. Its about time. Doctor, thank you very much for joining us. Straight ahead, a young marine killed in cold blood by one of his socalled allies.

The new york city medical examiner said the comedian died from lack of oxygen to the brain during her loak procedure to her throat procedure to treat acid
reflux. Closing arguments being made in the Oscar Pistorious sentence hearing and his lawyer is making note of a threat made against Oscar Pistorious life. A notorious gang leader saying he will take out the olympic blade runner if he receives special treatment in jail. Five minutes before the bottom of the hour. In 2012 Lance Corporal buckley jr. Celebrated his 21st birthday in afghanistan. He wanted to come home to drink legal beer with his dad but soon after Corporal Buckley was shot and killed in cold blood by one of his socalled afghan allies. He went over there, he did what they asked him to do, and the people he was training and helping over this, they turned on him. They turned on him, and he told me a week ago, dad, theyre shady. I dont want to be here. From there, his fathers
heartbreak got where is. Not only was Corporal Buckleys killer let off with a slap on the wrist seven and a half years in prison now his family believes the marines are trying to cover the whole thing up. Not only did they kill up greg but also two others. Welcome the father of greg buckley jr. We went over this a month ago and said if we dont get answers from the marines were suing. Greg, now youre suing. Why . I need the answers so we can have closure of my sons death. Its been one lie after another. He was working out with two guys. They had a couple of days left before they go. This guy was allowed on the base, and he turns around and he shoots all three of them. Afterwards, what did he say . He did it for jihad. He did it for jihad. He is a minor and gets
seven and a half years in prison. The family doesnt believe he was a minor. They were originally told3 he was not a minor according to medical tests that were done and they were promised they would be kept informed of the trial. Without telling them at all he was indicted as a minor and they werent told and sentenced as a minor. That goes back to the marine corps abject failure to keep the family informed of the facts and circumstances of the murder and the prosecution. Why does it matter so much how . We know its a tragedy and the marines obviously screwed up, as you chronicle in this suit which has been filed in eastern new york yesterday, against the general, the marines, the navy and the navy investigator services. Why does it matter that youre part of this trial and this is transparent . They knew prior to the execution of my son, they were warned that this would happen, warned bhi jason
warned by jason breslin. He sent over documents and said he can bring harm to the marines on this base and they chose not to remove him from the base. They left him on the base and his tvoy is the one they gave an ak47 to that went into the gym and executed my son and two other marines. This police chief was traveling like a harem of boys on the base. These guys clearly dangerous and this happens. What i find so disturbing is the marines dont want to get to the bottom of this because we know if it is a heroic situation the marines will tell you about. What youre finding in your investigation if it makes them look bad theyre not transparent. Under title 10 marines have an obligation to disclose all the circumstances to the family of the death. In this case they had a police chief on this notorious for being
corrupt, for collaborating with the taliban and for engaging with the keeping of young boys as sex slaves. Despite anonomously of that, they allowed him despite knowledge of that they allowed him on the base, allowed him to work with them, then when the major who previously expelled that miss chief from another base, it led to the murder. You want to warn other families. The next step, you file, wait for a date and wait for the government to respond . Correct. Well serve them with papers and hopefully theyll do the right thing. This family has been waiting for two and a half years. It is a sad day when they have to sue the marine corps. And theyre messing with the wrong family. And youre doing this gratis.

A school lunchtandards. Look like these days . The answer is not much in chickashea, oklahoma. A student took a pick tear, showed her took a picture, showed her parents. That is not much. Her father came forward and spoke to the news there too and said i could go buy a lunchable for a dollar and get more than that. I would welcome him to try to buy a lunchable for a dollar because i think those are a bit pricey and they have saturated fat in them. If you want to do that, spend a dollar on that and have that for dessert. But the kids have to be full. Weve already seen so much backlash from michelle
obamas school lunch program, youd think they would adjust it. There are anecdotal stories about how so many kids are throwing them away. Whats there to though away . Whats there to throw away .

Speaking of school, this ended with a school bus window getting bashed in with a baseball bat. The bus which had 20 students on board was cut off by an s. U. V. With four women inside. These women exchanged words with the driver and then they attacked spraying mace and smashing the windows. How can do you that . Its a school bus. For someone to get out of a vehicle and use a baseball bat and break a window of a Yellow School bus knowing its filled with students, thats pretty bizarre behavior. The only injury, a
15yearold boy with cuts on his arms but the attackers remain at large. Heart stopping new video shows the moment that a marine in afghanistan gets hit in the head by a snipers bullet. Look.

A faceoff over School Spirit at jaz arizona State University. The school looking to ban face paint. Students painted their faces and some thought this was racially offensive. Many of the fans say it wasnt intentional and any face paint restrictions are misguided. I mean i understand the whole black face thing being controversial but unfortunately a lot of students did it because theyre supporting the team. Theyre not trying to prove a point or anything like that. The university is discouraging all face paint while it comes up with some sort of policy but says fans will be able to draw pitch forks or the letters
a. S. U. On their faces and those are a look at your headlines so far. Lots of things to talk about. Indeed. They used the paint face because it was blackout night because they blacked out the game, so they were protesting. Maria is poifd to tell us the poised to tell us the latest on that storm.

Were going to get right to it. The first ad is for the
texas governor race and it is getting dirty, at least on the democrats side. Lets see this ad from wendy davis. A tree fell on greg abbott. He sued and got millions. Since then he spent his career working against other victims. Abbott argued a woman whose leg was amputated was not disabled because she had an artificial leg. Greg abbott the attorney general paralyzed from the waist down. Is this a below the belt ad that didnt go over well . It was so disappointing to people. Women went down to zero on the dials. They told us it is abhorrent, making a negative statement about wendy, not making a negative statement about him. They couldnt believe she went that low. Then she doubled down on it. She wont back off of this ad that people are upset about. A lot of people said this is a hail mary, down by double digits and doesnt have a chance of closing this gap. It is going to look back
for her. It seems like shes got an ax to grind and seems desperate. Before this ad came out greg abbott put out his own ad. It is basically this is my character. This is who i am. Watch. I had to rebuild my strength. I would roll up an eightstory parking garage spending hours going up the ramps with each floor it got harder and harder, but i wouldnt quit. I think i can. How did this go over . Everybody loved it. It is so rare to see not only a positive ad but make him look relatable and inspiring and people say this is the kind of person i want to fight for me that i think is going to do the right thing by me. I would absolutely give him an a. We should see more of these kinds of ads. We saw an ad from a democrat, an ad from a republican. Now were going to see an ad from an outside Interest Group that is negative but the message seems to be
resonating. Watch. Cut. Our budget has been slashed since 2003. Responding to an emerging Infectious Disease threat this is particularly damaging. Cut. That was a left hook. The right cross was the sequestration. This ad got four pinocchios in the first place. You say the message keeps getting repeated . It does. People hate negative ads but remember back to 1984 when we were talking about the duekakis ad. It is a Surgical Strike where everybody says i hate the ad but they remember the argument. This was a simple argument that says the cuts are the impact making all of this happen and its gotten repeated from the water coolers to bill maher talking about it. The other thing about this, if it is not a candidate saying this, it is an outside party which means you cant pin it on anybody. It doesnt make anybody necessarily look bad. It just makes the
republicans look bad. Those outside Interest Groups can shield a candidate from the backlash of these negative ads. That was a b . The first was an f . The second was an a. 49 minutes after the hour.

One High School Football teams pregame tradition of touching a statue make atheists furious. They claim two bible verses engraved on the statue violate the constitution. Now the school board has decided, they voted unanimously this statue must be altered. One of the players who fought to keep the statue now joinses from from joins us from atlanta and he joins us now. Hes suited up because he has a game. Sam, apparently the school board said look, were going to get sued. Its not worth it. Lets change the statue. How do you feel about that . Well, it was kind of forced upon them because of all the lawsuits they were going to be facing and its a decision that must have been made. I would like to say that we do have very strong leaders that lead our school in the board of
education, our principles, down to our teachers and coaches and im very proud to be able to live in a county like i do where we just have such strong and they are christian leaders and i personally am very thankful for that. Sam, you fought hard. People supported you. But ultimately you lost. How disappointed are you in a system where its just too expensive to get what you want and fight this through . Im not that disappointed about it because the thing is, that monument, a few thousand people would have been able to see that monument at a Madison County football game. But the attention it drew and like me just being having this is such a great opportunity for know come on the show, i got to share my faith and the gospel with millions of people compared to just the thousands that would have seen that monument. Thats how god works in such ways that we just cant imagine. Hes so mighty and great. You were certainly getting the messenger out. How do you feel about the atheist who complained about it . I said this last time i came on. Im not upset with them. I just hope that they will realize, like, our god, hes so real, like look at this, he can take what seems like a loss to him, but really it turns out to be something that many can hear his name for the first time, if it is the first time. His name could just be glorified. Good luck tonight as wide receiver. Youre going to be depending on. Congratulations on your fight. Well check in with you again. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Switching gears, breaking overnight, fox nuts alert, a Health Care Work who are had contact with the ebola patient who died is selfquarantining
himself on a cruise. Put down the milk. Another great reason to drink red wine. Actually right now. With captain crunch . Im not sure. Good morning. Today is friday, the 17th of october, 2014. Im anna kooiman in for elisabeth hasselbeck. We begin with a knocks news alert. The ebola scare spreads nationwide. How one case in texas has quickly turned into a multistate nightmare, shutting down schools, forcing businesses to close and putting the white house on damage control. Is that dallas hospital really prepared to deal with the ebola patients . A reporter sick herself with symptoms, found out firsthand and the news is not good. Proof that protocol is a total mess. And a hollywood surprise on the football field. Why michigan State University is drafting thats right
batman. Because mornings are better with aflac. Its time for fox friends our operator standing by to take your phone call. Also answer your email, your facebook, your twitter, you name it, we got people standing by. Reminds me of the beginning of pettycoat junction where the operators are putting the pins in the thing. If you know what im talking about, please tell me. Is chris chulo here . What am i talking about . I have no idea what youre talking about. Speaking of operators, apparently the cdc has had to hire lots more operators because people are calling up. Theyve got so many questions because once again, the fox news alert is what happened down at that texas hospital. You got a Ripple Effect big time. For example, think about the two nurses. Think about where they went, who theyve been in contact with and who they sat next to as they
were waiting and did not know they were exposed to Thomas Duncan who was positive for ebola, who they treated and ended up coming up positive. For example, what about the cruise ship . The cruise ship by one of the Health Care Workers in contact with Thomas Duncan. She did not know that she was possibly exposed. She actually was a Health Care Worker who may have handled a lab specimen from duncan. So while shes on vacation, shes selfquarantined herself on that ship, the Carnival Cruise magic. There could be up to 5,000 people on board. Whats curious about this is the ship tried to dock in belize and belize said, you got somebody who may have been exposed to ebola. Nobody is getting off that boat. So now our state department, which is not identified the ship nor the person, is trying to get her and her husband off before the end of the trip. And it has been 19 days since she handle that had lab specimen. Hopefully just a couple more days. But you see how belize is
handling this. They say no. Yeah. Stay away. Also remember amber vinson, she took a flight from dallasfort worth to ohio. Now folks in ohio on high alert. Eight people have been quarantined and there are three schools that are shut down. One of those had to be shut down because an employee may have been on one of those flights. These schools are having to stay closed over the weekend while they disinfect everything. Because a parent and a child were on the flight she was on. Actually on one of the following flights that she was on and apparently Frontier Airline, that particular plane made 26 flights before the cdc called. But they were on one of the flights after she got off and then the kid went to school the next day. Then they realized that, the day after that and closed the school. Theyre going to be closed again today. What about what amber was doing when she went home . She went to a bridal shop to look at dresses for her bridal
party, for her bridesmaid. That store is closed today. They have since closed it. Theyll have to ask people who had direct contact with her, what customers were in at the time. Theyre evaluating and scrubbing. And in addition to her look for the bridesmaid dress, she took the braidsmaids, there shopping with seven friends. Also three of her relatives who work at kent state, theyve asked them please dont come to school for three weeks. Meanwhile, p and c Office Building in ohio, an employee there took a flight, the same was on the same plane, not the same flight that amber was on. So what theyve done is theyve closed that particular facility. Apparently up to 1,000 employees have been impacted and its going to be closed until monday. This is seasonal allergies. Thats what this is right here. Also this is under extreme
precaution. They still you just got to work from home. Four minutes after the hour. There is more facets to this story. Dallas nurses with ebola. Now transferred to different facilities. Amber vinson in atlanta and nurse pham sent to the National Institute of health in maryland. Casey stegall live in dallas with the latest on their conditions. Casey, we saw a videotape as well. Reporter yes, we did. While i was standing here listening to you talking about this Ripple Effect across the country, it is important to point out that no one else is showing any symptoms. This is all out of an abundance of caution at this point. We hope that it certainly continues that way and that no one else contracts this deadly virus. Officials here in texas, by the way, saying now that 75 employees here at texas health Presbyterian Hospital who had some form of contact with Thomas Duncan while he was an in patient here have now signed
legal papers, legal papers that state they will stay inside of their homes. They will selfquarantine themselves 21 days past their last exposure with duncan or any specimens that were taken from him while he was here before he passed away last week. 29yearold amber vinson is the infected nurse who traveled. She claims that the cdc cleared her for that trip to ohio while the cdc says she was not entirely forth coming now about when she started to show symptoms. Shes now being treated at Emory University hospital in atlanta. Reporter check this out. The other infected nurse, 26yearold nina pham, this is video from inside the hospital room here this dallas just
before she was transferred to the biocontainment unit at the National Institutes of health in maryland yesterday. Both women were sent to these facilities at emory in atlanta and the National Institutes of health in maryland because theyre highly specialized facilities in terms of their staff, their setup and equipment. They have lots of experience dealing with Infectious Disease. Casey stegall live outside the hospital. Remember, this all started with one guy, Thomas Duncan, who lied on the declaration as he was leaving that west african country. The question was, were you in contact with anybody with ebola . And he said no, even though he had carried a woman who was dying into a car. So that has prompted a lot of people to say, weve got to stop people from coming from those three countries into the country. When dr. Frieden has been on this program in the past, he said we cant do that because it would economically impact the area. Yesterday during the on capitol hill, which was rivetting, he never mentioned
that. He said he was talking about well, if we dont have the system we have in place right now, people we have a travel ban, people will go through the poorest borders and wind up here and it will be a lot worse. So were on capitol hill, theyre trying to figure out who is it that is opposing this travel ban . The cdc, the white house or representative Steve Scalise was grilling frieden yesterday. Take a listen. If you were involved in conversations with the white house about a travel ban, did they rule it out . Are they still considering it . From the cdcs perspective, we will consider anything that will better protect did she did did she. Are you going to answer your question about your conversations with the white house . Is the white house considering a travel ban . I cant speak for the white house. Do you know if theyve ruled out a travel ban . I cant speak for the white house. Have you had conversations with them about it . Weve discussed the issue of travel. The president has not ruled out a travel ban now. He says hes considering it. Hes not fundamentally against it. He doesnt think its the right thing to do right now. He also in a skull session yesterday said i might put
somebody in charge. My people have done a great job. We might be better off having one person, one voice overseeing everyone. Havent we been saying that fort last three weeks . Didnt it seem logical . Does that mean that the president is not happy with what frieden is doing . What is the issue there . His issue, he said, listen, Thomas Frieden has more than ebola to worry about. Shouldnt we put Somebody Just over ebola . Some are saying give the guy a brake. He knows a lot about the medical community, but not great in Crisis Management and public speaking. But hes who we got. What the president said last night during that availability in the oval room, he said the reason im going to not say yes to a travel ban is because ive been talking to these experts. So far the experts have done a great job, havent they . Dr. Charles krauthammer was on special report last night and he said this about the white house being slow to wake up to the obvious. We learn is that they are
still slow, days behind in coming to obvious conclusions. We just heard that the head of the cdc say that we track all visitors coming in. We couldnt even track a nurse who treated mr. Duncan all the way to cleveland and were going to be assured that a person coming in is going to be tracked for three weeks . You check his temperature and its negative, there is still three weeks in which he can develop symptoms and were actually going to know where he is, who he talks to and if he gets sick were going to then have to retrace people hes been in contact with. This is absurd. Absurd. Peggy noonen, wall street journal writes, says the white house is making a lot of dumb decisions and said she would call it childish, except it would be anlt to children. She said if you had a group of 11yearolds and said, there is a sick person who wants to come into the house and the front door is open, what do you do . The 11yearolds would say, you close the front door. Its probably time to close the door until we get handle. Ebola and isis have americans jittery. Remember what the president said about isis . They were jv. At least everyone seemed to be on the right track. Dont be surprised if a travel ban comes down soon and a czar comes down soon. Heather childers has other break news, including the latest, isis. Were going to talk more about isis. Theyre making news this morning.

A reporter sick herself says the found out firsthand and the news isnt good. Proof the protocol is a total mess. Then what forced john kerry to fly commercial . So embarrassing. Firsthand account as we have this fox news alert. Confusion at texas Presbyterian Hospital, the same hospital that failed to diagnose Thomas Duncan with the ebola virus. At first, he he later died. Two weeks ago, a male online reporter, lauren collins, interviewed duncans family and shortly after, she started feeling sick. When she went to presbyterian for treatment to make sure she did not have the virus, she couldnt believe what she saw. Laura, first off, are you okay . Im absolutely fine, thank you. Im delighted to report. Okay. Great. You went in, you had a low grade fever. You had contact with mr. Duncans family. So you went in there. Tell us what you observed once you got inside beyond the wire, so to speak. Well, the alarming aspect was that what i observed was that nobody was entire leisure what to do. This is several days into the story. Mr. Duncan was still alive, but the message that the hospital and the cdc were pumping out was that everything was contained, that their nurses knew what to do. It was quite obvious that they didnt. Not to criticize them, the issue was they hadnt been given clear
instructions. They were discussing what orderly should put their protective gear on in, what order they should take it off in. There was no checklist. There was just general uncertainty and considering the seriousness of the situation, that was severely alarming. So you had a low grade fever. They kept you in isolation for a couple of hours and let you out, so youre okay. However, im wondering if you got in contact with either of the two nurses that ended up going positive because they evidently were tight with mr. Duncan early on. Youre wondering what . If you had contact with those nurses that ended up no, no i didnt. Okay. Because you said one of the most alarming things was about taking the gowns off and protective equipment off. They were confused by it. Did you notice who they were going to for advice . They were discussing between themselves. There really was a source of a huddle in the isolation room. There was a glass door and i could hear them discussing. It was obvious that there had been some memo, some instruction somewhere passed down, but what was equally obvious was there was nothing that had been rehearsed. I mean, this is so significant and so crucial in containing the virus that there shouldnt be any questioning each other and working on what to do and thats what was happening. Other nurses have said exactly what you observed. Shes with the daily mail. She thankfully is okay. But she observed the chaos which was inside texas presbyterian. Hopefully theyre getting their act together at this hour. Thank you for joining us. Thank you. Straight ahead, theyre hardly parents of the year. Mom and dad caught teaching their toddler to steal.

Here to tell us more about the gala coming up on october 28, tuesday night, weve got the ceo and chairman of the Green Beret Foundation annual gala, georgette moss backer. Good morning. Good morning. Why have you dedicated so much of your life to helping the green beret . Im too old to serve, first of all. So this is my way of serving. Ive gotten to know a lot of these families. I feel that every american has a moral responsibility to take care of these men and women. We take it for granted that we go to work every day and our kids go to school and we go to
shopping centers and were safe. Thats not true around the world. And its true here because men and women are willing to put themselves in harms way. Absolutely. They are such patriots, serving our country. Lets face it, weve talked extenttively about the v. A. Scandal. When they come back, we dont take care of them. And we have a moral responsibility to do that. And while i know the v. A. Should, i say but they dont, so we must. Right. Thats what the Green Beret Foundation is about. And in particular, were honoring this year your chairman and president , roger ailes, and his wife. The first time a couple, because mrs. Ailes dedicates so much of her time in life to the catholic charities, who also take care of our veterans. But more importantly this is important there is a culture here at fox of taking care of
our veterans. Not just on air, but all of you make personal contributions and thats why were honoring roger and beth, because of that culture. Absolutely. On giving back. Ive known them both for coming up on 20 years. They are such patriots and we both know that. The great thing about this particular dinner and were going to tell you how you can donate and even come to the dinner as well, a couple of tuesdays from now here in new york city is the money goes right to the needy. It goes to the people who need it and their families as well. Right. There is very little overhead. When you give money to the Green Beret Foundation, it goes directly to the families. Especially for medical care, taking care of those families for extraordinary expenses, education of the children. So it is important and i do ask everyone to please, whether you can come or that youll donate. But also were honoring general
john mulholland who has 19 silver stars. Its going to be a great night. October 28. Its going to be a tuesday night at the pierre hotel in new york city. If you can make it.

While bill murray takes on his first role as babysitter . Here with his reviews of this weeks top movies is Fox News Contributor kevin mccarthy. Good morning. Good morning to you guys. Thank you for having me on as always. Tell us about fury. Fury, this is an incredible film, brad pitt, executive produced the movie. Hes an Army Sergeant who is essentially commanding a tank crew, sherman tank with a crew and theyre behind enemy lines. Its a brutal, visceral story. What is done, he uses a lot of practical effects verses a lot of cgi and a lot of real things going on. So it feels very visceral and real. Logan lerman is the star of the show. Brad pitt is great, he carries the internal weight. But logan really is the star. Hes the rookie in the movie. Hes fantastic to watchment michael pena is great. Its definitely a solid world war ii film. I gave it four out of five. What i moon by four is i mean go see it in theaters. The sound effects are amazing. Its not up there with the classic world war ii movies. My grandfather fought in world war ii. Its nowhere near those, but definitely a solid world war ii movie, four out of five. Okay. While that sounds terrific, and im going to go ahead and steal your thunder here, youre giving this next movie five out of five stars. That is correct. This movie absolutely blew my mind and its more intense than most horror movies. Called whiplash. Ed idea here is a young drum who are is in a jazz conservatory and hes being he has an instructor who is a very abusive, mentally abusive guy, but hes pushing this kid to limits he never expected in the move yes that will blow your
mind from intensity. Its about music and to me, it was a direction, it was the editing, the sound effect, everything about it was fantastic. The lead star in the movie deserves an Academy Award nomination as does j. K. Simmons. This really rocked my world. Once it ended, i was out of breath. Its just about music. I highly recommend it. Its in limited release now. But definitely find it. It will be up for Academy Awards, mark my words. My fourth five out of five of the year. My first three were birdman, gone girl, and boyhood. Lets talk about bill murray. Hes been promoting this. He extremely proud of it. Should he be . Yeah, he should be. I really think he should be. Its getting a lot of oscar buzz. I dont necessarily thinks he deserves an oscar nomination. Its about a young boy who moves next door to a bitter man and he becomes a babysitter to the young boy and almost like a saint considering the title of the movie. Melissa mccarthy plays the mother of the boy and hires bill murray as a babysitter. It blends comedy and drama very well. I thought the movie really worked on a diagram hispanic comedic level. Murray is fantastic. Melissa mccarthys best movie since bridesmaids. Peter doocy loved it as well. He sent me a text, gave me a full review on it. We need to start doing dual review. Shouldnt he be working . He texted me that he loved it as well. I spoke to Melissa Mccarthy, one of the great things about the movie is that the young boy was asked to pick a saint in his life. I asked Melissa Mccarthy who she would pick . I would nominate my parents. I would go double. Just incredibly kind people. Ive watched them do amazing, kind acts for people my entire life and never, never tell anyone, nobody else knows. Theyre always there helping
people. I would nominate them. Give them an award right now. Saint mccarthy. It seems right. See . Kevin, youre a saints for doing all these movies.

The city now being accused of ordering its pastors to show us your sermons or be held in contempt of court. The move part of an ordinance aimed at ending discrimination against the lgbt community, but critics say it actually stifles
religious liberty. Joining us now with matt lewis, Senior Editor at the daily caller. Thank you for joining us on fox friends. Thanks for having me. Some have said that just as dallas has become ground zero for ebola, houston has become ground zero for religious liberty. Do you agree . Well, right now it is. Look, this isnt a new thing. Theyve had Little Sisters of the poor, hobby lobby, other instances of people being asked to violate their rights of conscience, but right now this is where the action is and look, i think if you care about free speech and free expression, you need to Pay Attention to this. For viewers who arent super familiar with the story, if you can break it down for us. Essentially there is a bill on the books where the mayor wants to let men use womens restrooms and women use mens restrooms in an effort to be gender neutral. She put out this tweet, mayor parker put this out. She says, if the five pastors use pulpits for politics, their sermons are fair game. Can you break this down for us . Yeah. Basically there was an effort to have kind of a referendum on this ordinance to get it overturned. Im sure some of these pastors and some conservatives and faite part of the effort to overturn this ordinance. So there is a question as to whether or not they were from the pulpit, if they said anything that might have caused there is questions about whether or not all the signatures are valid. But look, at the end of the day, this seems egregious. To subpoena the sermons of pastors . That is beyond the pale and really could have a Chilling Effect on free speech. Is this an issue that you feel like both sides of the aisle need to be outraged about . Look, they should be. My entire life has been nothing but watching movies about the people versus larry flint or hearing about why we should defend Alan Ginsburg or Robert Maplethorpe or lenny bruce,
somebody who was out there saying outrageous and controversial and some cases horrific things, that we should defend them because this is america and you have the right to free speech. The aclu defends the american nazis. They defend the right of the ku klux klan to march. Horrific groups. But they do it because of this premise that we have to defend even unpopular speech, and yet here we have these houston pastors and there are a few people on the left, i have to concede and give them credit, who are defending their right. But so far i dont know where the aclu is on this one. Yeah. You think about our history, its not just the First Amendment thats being violated here. Many say it vital americas history. You think about civil rights, pastors leading that. Martin luther king, junior, the American Revolution and the clergymen there, too. We appreciate your time. Thanks for weigh not guilty this morning. Thank you. 48 minutes after the hour on your friday morning. Next, the ebola scare spreads

The answer to the aflac trivia question is rudolph dolf, lundgren. The winner will get a copy of George Washingtons secret six parents are angry and confused after receiving an unslinging message from School Leaders in akron, ohio. It reads, quote, a parent at our school spent time with ebola patient amber vinson when she visited the area this past weekend. Because of that, the Resident CommunityLearning Center has been shut down, will remain shut down until monday. Ezra is a father of a kindergartener and a fifth grader at the school. Ezra, first off, you are here talking about what youve been through over the last few days. Are you happy that the school reacted this way, essentially saying were closing the doors and were cleaning it out . Yeah. I am. What we experienced was just a really great example of the
school taking really every precaution they could. Im glad they did it. Some parents might say it might be unnecessary. But at this point in time, might as well take the extra precaution and not freak everybody out. Sure. Ezra, im sure you, like everybody other parent in that school, had been watching the news over the last week or so out of dallas, which is troublesome. And then you thought, we really dont have to worry about it because there is no way it can get from dallas to akron. Yeah. There is no way. I was just talking with my fifth grader, actually just monday. The fifth graders were talking around the lunch table saying they were kind of scaring each other about what ebola what do to all of us in america kind of thing. I said, it would be a needle in a hay stack, this isolated incident in texas getting to west akron. And then two days later, getting a phone call saying theyre shutting down the school. Right. I do notice some quotes from some of the families. Theyre kind of mad at amber for having a fever or low grade fever and getting on and going out there. Where would you categorize yourself and your family . Well, really were a family of faith and so when we got the news, yeah, we were scared and surprised. Definitely the emotion of fear was there. But we dont let our lives be driven by fear. We always face all kinds of stuff. So as the word got spread in the community, we really felt a great support. So i think it all needs to be taken into perspective. Okay. Youre level headed about this. How about your kids . How are they feeling about going back to school on monday . Theyre doing really good. The fifth grader my kindergarten was just happy to be out of school. My fifth grader, he said when i explained to him, they didnt tell the kids why they were getting out of school. When i explained to him on our way home why we were taking the time off and i was afraid of his
reaction. But when i explained to him that its really like hes about three levels down from like extra precaution of just in case, and he was like, oh, okay. That makes a lot of sense. Well, well go back monday. So even to him it was no big deal. And be truthful. Monday. Youre going to put purell in their pocket, arent you . Probably, yeah. Ezra wimberley, father of a couple of kids that goes to a school that closed down because of an ebola scare, thank you very much. Thanks for having me on.

We begin with a fox news alert. The ebola care spreads scare spreads nationwide. Schools close down, cruise ship stuck at sea. Now the white house on damage control. Should someone be fired . What about a travel ban . Geraldo is here to weigh in. Have you ever heard about this . Republican Louis Gohmert, a congressman, taking some heat after standing up for nurses and slamming the cdc. Good night. They set them up and then throw them under the bus. And if you think hes going to back down, hes not. Hes doubling down and Louis Gohmert joins us live next. Wow. Ever wonder what a meteor hitting your town would look like . There you go. Now you know. If you didnt see it personally, it didnt hit your town. Thats good news. Here is better news, mornings are better with friends. Hi, this is Debra Messing from the mysteries of laura and will request will and grace. How great was she earlier this week. What did she do that was so great . She was just great. She was very friendly. Before the interview, after the interview, during the interview. Very nice. Just one of the people who stopped by this week. Were delighted you would join us on this friday. Anna is in for elisabeth. Good to have you. We got a lot to talk about this final hour. A fox news alert. The texas ebola causing a Ripple Effect. A cruise ship now stuck at sea after it was revealed that a passenger on board works at the texas hospital and may have handled a lab sameness from the ebola victim, eric duncan. Casey stegall is outside that hospital with the very latest. People are trying to be calm about all this, but there is a lot in the news today, casey. Reporter yeah. There is certainly a level of concern as you hear about some of these employees who were traveling and have traveled. The state department lets talk about the cruise ship because the state department is giving us some of the information on this. They say that the person on board the cruise ship right now is an employee here at texas health Presbyterian Hospital in dallas. They did not have direct contact with patient zero, thomas eric duncan, who died of ebola here last week. However, this person may have handled a lab specimen that was collected from him. The employee is on board the carnival magic which left port in galveston, texas on october 12 bound for the caribbean before the cdc updated its active Monitoring Program for the Health Care Workers here. Remember, they were originally told, just watch yourself. This person is not sick. Its important to point that out. But they have voluntarily remained isolated in a cabin as
the feds work to get them off of that ship. 29yearold amber vinson is the nurse who is infected with ebola and who also traveled. Vinson claims, however, that the cdc cleared her for that trip to ohio that she took to plan her wedding, while the cdc says she was not entirely forth coming about when she started showing symptoms. She is now being treated at Emory University hospital in atlanta. Really proud of you. Reporter look at this, the other infected nurse, 26yearold nina pham. This is video from inside her hospital room right here in dallas just before she was suited up and transferred to the biocontainment unit at the National Institutes of health in
bethesda, maryland yesterday where she is now undergoing treatment for this deadly virus, guys. All right. Casey, thank you very much. By the way, casey, last night flying into jfk, apparently a passenger from africa died. Do we know anything about that . Well, were under the impression that ebola has been ruled out here. As you know, there are a lot of these concerns, people that are showing symptoms, but it turns out not to be ebola. We understand that a passenger died in midair on their way to the United States from nigeria, but ebola has been ruled out there. Yeah. The passenger apparently was exhibiting symptoms, but theyve ruled it a heart attack. Casey, thank you very much for joining us this week live from dallas. The autopsy says its friday, which means its geraldo time. Good morning. Good morning to you. Rose between the thorn. Geraldo, the president seems to be changing possibly. Im not philosophically against a travel ban. And then tom frieden did not have adequate answers yesterday on capitol hill. Where should i start . The travel ban . I thought it through and what i was against the travel ban until the african nations themselves imposed two dozen of them, a travel ban. Yes. On their fellow african nations. The caribbean nation of jamaica, guyana in south america also imposed travel bans. So what happens if everyone else is imposing a travel ban that kind of has the effect of pushing people from the infected three countries toward the United States. So here is what i would do. First of all, the resistance to a travel ban is based on a practical reason, the difficulty if you ban travel of getting aid workers in, getting assets in. What i would do knowing that we do have surplus military air lift capacity is schedule right now military flights from the
United States to the infected areas, bringing not only our troops, but supplies, aid workers and have those flights ready to return those aid workers after they themselves are quarantined and selfmonitored in terms of the other, main population, the civilian population of the infected areas, what i would do is have big quarantine areas where they can be contained for three weeks, monitored on a regular basis. If at the end of the threeweek period theyre still clean, then i would allow them to travel on that limited basis. The other argument the president made against imposing a travel ban was that people who were traveling may be less likely to be honest about where they have been, or to seek medical treatment if theyve been in west africa. My plans eliminates the need for honesty. My plan is very, very specific. This is a 21day incubation period. You come in on day one. I check your temperature, check you out. Day two, i check you again. You stay in this big, big circus tent with a fence around it. You cant go or come. You are monitored on a regular basis. And then look how intently we scrutinize people who get the tsa precheck. They went through every aspect of my life before they gave me the precheck. We can be that thorough with these people. I like your plan. And you make a great point because the way theyve been able to isolate it in west africa is the other african countries say, you cant come in. Two weeks they have led us in this. Theyve taken geraldo reluctantly to the right side. Two weeks ago, you were the first person who said, we need an ebola czar. That has really gained traction. The president kind of sounded open to it, but at the same time i think hes going to do it. If hes open to it, he would have done it already. The problem dealing with the government as long as i have is very simple. Here you have the National Institutes of health. You have the centers for disease control. You have the Defense Department with the enormous involvement of the Defense Department. These are three agencies that dont really communicate. They exist independently. If you saw a pouchy sitting next to frieden yesterday, they barely had any communication between themselves. It is obvious from a management point of view as i said two weeks ago that you need one person in charge. Two weeks ago i suggested the Surgeon General, not realizing he was only acting in all the political turmoil around the president s appointee of his Surgeon General who headed doctors for obama Public Health qualifications. The man to do it, i have spoken to him and he will accept the job, i was in new orleans, hurricane katrina, 2005. The city was in chaos. There were dead bodies in the street. Babies had gone unfed for three days. One man arrived, the commander general of the first army,
lieutenant generousle henri. He came. He immediately im telling you, he took control. He imposed order there. Not only is he a military commander with great administrative experience, combat experience and reason, he also has been associated with Emory University for eight years. He was in charge of biowarfare, Infectious Diseases. This is a man with impeccable qualifications. He can take over today. I asked him would he take the job. He said the phone is on my desk. Mr. President , call me. Absolutely. Meanwhile, next to him when he said that, Thomas Frieden. In your mind, should Thomas Frieden go . I think, brian, people make mistakes. Look at the dallas Presbyterian Hospital. Two weeks ago i said to great criticism that they didnt treat Thomas Duncan. They treated a stereotype. I know im going to get heat for what im about to say. There is president obama doubt in my mind, having worked so many drug exposes, stories ive done. Ive been in so many big Public HealthEmergency Rooms late at night, poor black, uninsured guy gets there, you dont see the patient. You see the stereotype. I believe thats what happened. I think severe criticism. Appropriately accepted by presbyterian. Now to frieden. Frieden should not be fired at this point. You dont want to create a vacuum there. If you impose the ebola czar, frieden becomes someone who works for the ebola czar. I think it really takes care of itself. Then they can give those long answers that are nonsensical. You can not give an answer like that to the general. Have a good weekend. Thank you. Heather childers standing by with the news. Well fist pump. Another big story were following, not only ebola, but isis making headlines at this hour. A fox news alert first happening right now. At least 14 people feared dead after a ventilation grate collapses after a concert in south korea. These images are just coming in. A crowd was standing on the grate whether they fell through into a deep air shaft. At least another ten people seriously injured. Rescue crews now trying to pull everyone out. And to isis, the meteoric rise of isis, gulf war 3. Just secretary of state of the topics in the newly released isis video featuring british hostage john cantlie. Its the fifth in a series of videos of a hostage is reading for the terrorist groups message. And hes reading it like any other news anchor. This time he speaks of how quickly isis has grown in size and scope and the United States, he says, is just in the early
steps of what will undoubtedly become an allout war. This latest propaganda video comes as isis claims responsibility for a we have of attacks in baghdad. The most recent ones, a series of car bombs leaving 14 civilians dead. New fallout from the botched fast and furious operation to tell you about. A new Judicial Watch report reveals a gun used in a 2013 shooting in arizona came from that gun running operation which the Justice Department created to track illegal traffickers in mexico. Back in 2010, of course, that operation led to the death of Border Patrol agent brian terry. Have you ever wondered what a meteor coming straight towards your town might look like . Well, here it is. Is that what you thought it would look like, steve . Well, this happened in brazil. Experts say the meteor was part
of a shower caused by debris from haleys comet. It burned up before hitting the ground thankfully. So nothing was damaged. Dramatic pictures there. What a light show. Thank you very much. Is the president using the ebola crisis to get votes from single women . Congressman Louis Gohmert says it looks awfully suspicious. He thinks politics could be involved. Hes next. Then parking wars, this guy found a way to save himself a spot and tick off neighbors. Texas congressman Louis Gohmert taking some heat this morning after making these comments about cdc director tom frieden. Its a shame that the cdc had frieden apparently is the new commander of the democrats war on women nurses because good night, they set them up and then they throw them under the bus. So what exactly did the congressman mean . Do you have any idea . Congressman Louis Gohmert is here to explain all this. Good morning, congressman. Thank you for joining us on fox friends. Good morning. Well, first of all, you had the cdc that couldnt even explain what protocol got violated. But instead of asking forgiveness and explaining they had not gotten protocols where they needed to be, they come out and say, well, this nurse got ebola because she violated protocol. At least in football the referee has to tell you what rule you violated. They couldnt do that because they had never gotten the rules to them. They had never gotten the protocols out. So they immediately blame the nurse. You would have thought that would be enough. But oh, no, when the second nurse gets ebola, they immediately say she shouldnt have been out there flying, failing to tell us that actually were the ones that told her that she could fly. I mean, it isni a war on these poor women nurses and they are doing the best they can and the
cdc i dont want frieden to resign. I agree with geraldo . Geraldo was talking about that. I have to bow to him in certain areas where he has more expertise, like selfy nudies, hes got more expertise there. But with regard to the cdc, frieden ought to stay on. But instead of continuing to complain about female nurses, he ought to go to one of those hospitals and put on
nurses uniting and firing back and sticking up for that nurse, and maybe thats what put him on his heels. Well, it could be. It could be. But i also think when you look at what the cdc and the president have been doing and saying, there is apparently some deal back there thats been made with these ebolainfected nations and i think were going to find out about it when the president has a lot more flexibility after the election. I just think there is some deal here. Thats why they wont do a travel ban. Every caring mother in america knows and has said at one time or another to their child, no, youre not going because youre sick and youre not going to give it to them or this childs sick. Theyre not coming over here. Mothers understand that. Nurses understand that. Its a shame the cdc and the president dont understand that. All right. Congressman i think there is some deal there. Well find out about it later. But this administration has already expedited visas for
western africa. Louis gohmert who says there is something political at work, thank you for joining us live. Thank you. Meanwhile, straight ahead, parents, watch this. A 60 insert could save your kid from a concussion. That one

And the moment a marine in afghanistan gets hit in the head by a snipers bullet. Listen. [ bleep ] the kevlar deflects the bullet, leaves him nothing more than ringing in the ears. Amazing to see. Speak of kevlar, steve . Thats right. Every year, 25,000 Football Players between the ages of eight and 19 go to the emergency room for treatment for concussions. One company is making huge strides in reducing the number of concussions by harnessing technology that was originally created for the military. Rob is the ceo of Unequal Technology and he joins us live. Good morning to you. Good morning. So how did this Technology Come about . Originally we designed this technology for the military to make their bullet proof vests, lighter, thinner, more flexible. And a student of mine, im a professor at penn state said what if you could make a bullet proof vest lighter . I thought wow, we could do that for sports and make better protection. And the reason this is so important is because so many
parents, they want their kids to play sports, but at the same time, theyre a little worried about the concussion because thats pretty scary stuff. You got stats. 70. 5 of sports brain injury visits to the e. R. Were ten to 19yearolds and males sustained injury most often playing football or bicycling and females most often sustained injuries playing basketball or soccer or bicycling. So your company has figured out some ways to protect well talk about football but kids who play lacrosse and who play socker and stuff like that. Exactly. We took this military grade protection, adopted it for sports and put it into things such as helmets, head bands, as youre seeing over here. We call the halo. And body armor to protect the ribs and lower parts. And the reason i know about this is because my daughter, sally, goes to smu. She has an internship at an Advertising Agency and they were telling me with this at smu and there is the team right there. Theyve got the inserts in their
helmets and whats so far this year, whats the concussion rate been . Its been zero among every Single Player wearing unequal. Unbelievable. Tell us so youve got the halo, which kids who are playing soccer or lacrosse can do. Tell me about the shirt. The shirt is called the invincible. We designed our military grade composite to go inside the ribs and on top to prevent additional rib injury. Weve done toni romo, Ben Roethlisberger and 14 other quarterbacks. Somebody wanted to find out how effective this was, so you put this shirt on and then they who was it and who took the bat to you . The nfl wanted to show how good the technology was when they filmed the nfl 2020. So they took that bat and one of our protective garments and broke a bat across my chest. And did they break anything inside of you . I had a medical exam, nothing was broken. What im really competed about is the study done on national
high schools. 1200 High School Kids and those wearing unequal had less than a 1 concussion rate. Those without had nearly a 10 concussion rate. This was done by a team doctor in texas, dr. Chad stevens. Its great stuff. If i were a parent and i had a kid who was playing High School Football or any of the leagues, id think about one of those inserts that cost about 60 bucks . Yes. Very good. Rob, we thank you very much for joining us live. Thank you. Really neat stuff. Coming up, the president opens the door to an ebola czar and his press secretary blames dr. Frieden. Are politics at play in handling the crisis . Well talk to chris wallace. She was on Maternity Leave and ordered to court. This attorney brought her baby along.

They came up with the name using operation random thesaurus. Jimmy fallon is comic. Yeah. Last night. Meanwhile, its friday. You know what that means, 8 30 eastern time, we always check in with our old buddy, chris wallace. Hes always there for us. Hes always there. Yeah. I sit around here and i hope you guys will come talk to me. Good morning. We want to talk to you about whats going on regarding the ebola response. The president of the United States, he canceled a fundraiser in the middle of the week. He met with his advisors yesterday. Now he says he may be a czar, although hes been reluctant. Whats going on . Well, two things. One hopes that whats happened is he realized the situation i dont think you can say its spinning under control, but its certainly not under control and he needs to get a better handle on it. And secondly, is there some politics in it . Less than three weeks before the election, of course there is. Its like a lot of things. And there is the reality, he wants to try to get a better handle on it. There is a perception that he wants to get a better handle on it. Yeah. No doubt about it, i think sometime today or over the weekend, as late as monday, well see the introduction of an ebola czar. He kind of laid the ground work yesterday. Thomas frieden was there to defend his actions and define what exactly hes doing and why hes against a travel ban. Here is Steve Scalise talking to him and then youll hear from josh earnest. He was asked who is really to blame for this. Lets listen. If you were involved in conversations with the white house about a travel ban, did
they rule it out . Are they still considering it . From the cdcs perspective, we will consider anything that are you going to answer the questions about your conversations with the white house . Is the white house considering a travel ban . I cant speak for the white house. Do you know if they ruled out a travel ban . I cant speak for them. Have you had conversations with them . Weve discussed travel. Weve seen this with other stories. We messed up. Somebody dropped the ball. We fumbled. And a person is not held accountable. Who is responsible for these short comings youre talking about . You have seen at least in a couple of instances, dr. Frieden take responsibility for the cdc not performing up to expectations. At the same time the cdc has been focused on this situation since march. And chris, there are some who are calling for dr. Frieden to go, but then again, at the height of a crisis a good time to fire somebody . No, i dont think it is. I dont incidentally think frieden was wrong in his answer to Steve Scalise. The decision as to whether or
not to initiate a travel ban is the white houses, it is the president s. There are a lot of factors in it, including things that the state department, for instance, would want to weigh in on, the Defense Department. So that really isnt his call. Look, they have clearly made some serious mistakes at the c d. C they did not give the proper protocols nor make sure that the protocols were being enforced at that hospital in dallas. Allowing these people who had come in direct contact with the likian man who died, mr. Duncan, to fly around the country and the woman actually calls, the nurse, amber vinson, and says, hey, ive got a little bit of a fever. They say well, its 99. 5, not 100. 5, get on a plane. Really . Common sense. This is a woman who has been in direct contact with duncan. If she has any fever at all, you dont let her get on the plane. Here is the problem, is that you want your chief spokesman to be somebody who inspires confidence
and Thomas Frieden doesnt inspire confidence among a lot of people. I dont think he necessarily needs to leave the cdc, but probably needs to leave as the face of the administration in its fight against ebola and thats why i think there is a very good chance and the president laid the possibility wide open last night that youre going to see an ebola czar and i hope he or she will appear on Fox News Sunday this week. Were asking the white house. If frieden goes, there is no real guarantee that the replacement would be any better. You got a big show coming up on sunday. What are you going to talk about . Yeah. First of all, we will have the very latest on ebola and we hope well have a Top Administration official. Then the elections just two weeks away from this coming tuesday. The chairs of the republican and democratic parties, interestingly enough, this will be the first time they have appeared together this year is. What a show. Only on Fox News Sunday. Wow. I feel like ed sullivan. There is obviously ebola has some politics, too, so well be talking about that as well. Thats your blue card. Its a really big shoe. Really big show. When hes not dancing to rickey martin, he is impersonating ed sullivan. Listen, that takes days. I know what youre talking about. What tape is he talking about . I dont know what hes talking about. Were going to be watching. By the way, 9 00 oclock eastern time this morning, governor omalley will be talking about marylands response and readiness to handle ebola. Youll see that. A man that might be running for president. Other stories making headlines, Heather Childers has those. Some stories weve been following. We begin with this, a Helicopter Rescue caught on camera after a Small Plane Crashes into a forest east of l. A three people on board hoisted to safety. Amazingly surviving with only bumps and bruises and a couple of broken bones. Its not clear yet if the pilot was trying to land or trying to
take off. The cause of the crash is under investigation. An attorney and a new mom forced to take her baby to court after an atlanta judge refused to delay a hearing during her Maternity Leave. Stacy nichol had no one to watch her fouryearold daughter, but the judge said that is no excuse and even went as far as to scold the new mom when the baby cried in court. The judge eventually delayed the hearing. The mom filed a complaint against him. A georgia High School Football team pregame tradition of touching a statue making atheists furious. They claim biblical verses violated the constitution. Now the school board has voted unanimously that the statue must be altered. Sam bartlet, a member of the team who fought to keep that statue, joined us earlier to show that hes not angry, but thankful for the experience. That monument of a few thousand people would have been
able to see that monument at a Madison County football game. But the attention it drew and like me just this is such a great opportunity for me to come on this show. I got to share my faith and the gospel with millions of people compared to just the thousands i would have seen that monument. What a wise kid there. Sam says he has no ill will toward the atheists who campaigned against the statue. And finally, what a conehead. People living in a brooklyn neighborhood are furious that this guy with his flashy sports car keeps reserving his parking spot with orange hazard cones. Neighbors telling the New York Post that parking is limited to begin with and they say the man doesnt even live there, but has a maintenance job nearby. The car also has a sticker on the front windshield that reads like this, drive it like you stole it. The man says that he does this with every new car that he buys to protect it. That being the cones. Thank you. I wonder if he gets parking tickets. I dont know. I think thats why he puts the cones there. Maybe. So it looks like hes official.

Our next guest has been told you need to transform your family and says it only takes five days starting now. Joining us now is psychologist and author of have a happy family by friday, dr. Kevin lehman. Good morning. Good morning. Thats a tall order. Well, it is. I tell everybody its a scam. You dont have to wait til friday. Tell me where we start. If youre sick of the word whatever, if the last flower you saw was at your uncle harrells funeral and no one listens to you but the dog, this is a book for you cause this is a book about changing relationships with those you love. You do that by changing the words you use with kids. Like we grill kids when we come home. How was your day today, honey . Answer. What did you do in school . Nothing. Teenager. Where you been . Out. What did you do . Nothing. Dont ask kids questions. Us husbands by the way, we hate
questions. We hate the why word. So one of the first tips you say, communication. You got to get it going, otherwise its not going to work. Right. And kids are weird. They put the music in. What do most parents say, turn that down my suggestion, say to the kid, turn that up. They go what . And they turn it up a little bit. Say louder. Kids are either going to become what if you hate the music . Youre going to hate the music. There is not a parent in the world that loves their kids music. But you got to connect with the kid. You change the words. With husbands, again, we hate questions. Tell me more about that. Its a command, but it doesnt put the defenses up. Then you got to Pay Attention after you say that. Thats the hard part. Were not listeners. Right. As a gender, we tend to listen. The key, though next up on your roster, ed is respect. Kids today distheir distheir parents. We have seen the them. They have a game plan. Any question for parents is, do you have a game plan . A 17yearold kid runs his mouth off, it may be four letter words. Im telling you, kids will do that to their kids today. Then hes looking for the keys to the car. What do you say to them . The keys are in my pocket. Youre not going anywhere. Its called discipline. Its lacking in america, lacking in canada. We dont do a good job of commanding respect. Do it now before its too late. Yeah. Id rather have a blowout now until the kid just degenerates down to nothing. Better late than never. Team work, too. You and your wife have to be on the same page. Thats true. But kids need to give back to the family. Kids need to work. When they dont work, the 12yearold doesnt do something, hire tenyearold sister to do it and pay for it out of his allowance. It works. You have to earn your allowance, right . You got to do something around the house . Everybody gets allowance. But what do you do when a kid doesnt do something . You tap into their income. With a teenager, you hit them
with a car. Not at 40 miles an hour, please. But cars and money and privilege are important. The car rot of the car. Its such good advice. And sometimes its so simple, its like why didnt we ever think about it because a lot of families, it takes years to build it up to the dysfunctional stage that its at that you say you can fix in five days. We dont hang out with people we dont like. I got news for you, kids dont hang out with people they dont like. So again, they become slamming clickers, they go to their bedroom, they text and systematically cut you out of their life. If you dont stand up and do some of the principles in your new book. Yeah. Have a happy family by friday. Coming up straight ahead. We got this fox news alert. The ebola scare spreads nationwide.

The hunt is on for passengers who were on board the same Frontier Airline flight as the nurse and other flights after that. Waga mark tightener is live at harmed field Jackson Airport outside atlanta. Good morning to you, mark. Good morning. They were already looking for some of these folks. These would be the folks that
flew back from cleveland to dallas, the return trip, frontier flight that she took after she was already showing a low grade fever. The cdc was looking for them. Now they say theyre looking for people who were on the initial flight, the one she took friday, october 10, from dallas up to cleveland. That would be frontier flight 1142 cause they say its possible that nurse amber vinson might have been sick before she got on that flight initially. So theyre trying to find those folks. And on top of all that, Frontier Airlines is out there trying to find anybody who flew on the plane after she was on it cause they want to get ahold of them and make sure they put them in touch with c d. C youre talking about hundreds if not more than 1,000 people. You add up all those flights, including a couple that came in and out of atlanta, so you can see the folks here in atlanta pretty concerned about that as well. Cdc is saying its really not a real Health Problem that they dont think that anybody is going to get ebola from this woman who were on these flights, but they do want to make sure they come forward so they can monitor them just to be safe.
