Millions cant stop watching. What does a year say, this morning. Good morning, america. Boy, it is a cold one in so much of the country this morning. Freezing temperatures from coasttocoast. There in washington, d. C. , could be the coldest day in years. And behind this cold blast, another storm is coming, full of snow, for major cities from chicago to boston. And ginger zee will tell us all about it. Lets get to the breaking news on that major problem onboard the 100 billion International Space station, currently home to six astronauts. Abcs john muller has been following developments all night for us. Good morning, john. Reporter good morning, robin. Nasa says it plans for problems like this. But it doesnt make the situation this morning any less urgent. Engineers at the Johnson Space center in houston have been working all night to find a fix for the ailing space station. This is mission control, houston. Reporter a pum. Connected to the cooling system, think of it like your car radiator, failed tuesday. Noncritical systems powered down to prevent dangerous overheating. The heat control is a very important aspect of the station. Its not just the temperature for the astronauts. So the instruments dont overheat, the electronics. And Power Systems dont get damaged, which could then jeopardize the whole station. Reporter nasa says for now, six astronauts living on the station, two americans, three russians and one japanese, are not in danger. Its a pretty good setup here. Reporter engineers have two options. A software upgrade. Or if that doesnt work, a riskier, emergency spacewalk. The problem is, nasa suspended space walks in july after an astronaut nearly drowned when water mysteriously filled his helmet. My helmet is wet. And im feeling freezing. Reporter the space station had a similar problem a few years ago. The astronaut who helped solve that crisis, now working with the team in houston, looking for answers as we speak. If a second cooling system fails, astronauts may have to evacuate. We could find out later today if a spacewalk is necessary. All right. John, thank you for that. Thanks, guys. Were hearing from the infamous imposter at Nelson Mandela Memorial Service. The sign Language Interpreter on stage just inches from president obama was displaying the sign of equivalent gibberish. He said he was seeing angels. Gio benitez here with the latest. Reporter so many asking how was he even there . The South African government speaking out this morning. And so is the interpreter himself. Saying hes schizophrenic. This morning, a shocking confession from the man at the center of an international controversy. I see angels climb into the stadium. Reporter speaking out for the First Time Since his headscratching translation of Nelson Mandelas memorial. The interpreter, thamsanga jantije, says, he isnt a fraud like so many have claimed. But that he had a schizophrenic episode during the event. And he started hallucinating. Sometimes, violence. Sometimes i will see, like, things. Like chase me. And you know, i was in a very, very, very difficult position. Reporter jantjie is admitting he is seeking treatment for schizophrenia. And he has been violent in the past. The revelation raising grave concerns this morning. He was front and center at the memorial, just feet away from mandelas family and 91 heads of state. But it wasnt long before people started noticing his signs didnt match the other translator on South African television. We applaud you and thank you for that. Reporter one expert who is deaf, told us through an interpreter, that he doesnt even know the sign for the name Nelson Mandela. Nelson mandela this is Nelson Mandela, because of the fact that he used to comb his hair to the side. Reporter jantjie insisted he attended highprofile events before. Including this one, beside president zuma. If i have offended anyone, please, forgive me. Reporter and the South African government now saying this morning, it did not hire the interpreter. Instead, the government says it paid the company he works for. Owners of that company have disappeared. George and robin. Thanks very much. Lets go to josh with the top stories. Were going to begin with a blow for holiday travelers everywhere. Federal regulators have shut down dozens of tour Bus Companies and all because of safety violations. The nationwide crackdown comes after a series of recent crashes. 52 companies in all have been shuttered. Many of them wellestablished bus lines that have transported school bands, boy scout troops and senior citizens. Well have a complete list on our website, goodmorningamerica. Com on yahoo in fact, in one case, drivers for a utah company were allegedly forced to drive 800mile round trips to las vegas without required rest. In school bus safety, a big issue in north carolina, after the driver you see here was caught falling asleep. In fact, drifting between lanes. A recent study by aaa found that one in four drivers will, at some point, doze off while behind the wheel. There was plenty of dozing on capitol hill. Senators pulled something of an allnighter, as majority leader, harry reid, keeping everyone in session. Cots were, in fact, offered, like in years past, so that president obamas judicial nominees can be approved. Republicans are refusing to take a break as a protest to new filibuster rules. Overseas. The United States is suspending aid to the rebels in syria. The white house is worried that aid to syria could end up in the hands of al qaeda. A rebel commander supported by the United States recently fled the country. And Major League Baseball is planning to change the rules at home plate, in fact. Banning collisions to protect players from concussions. You remember this one. Pete rose in 1970, slamming into young, upcoming ray fosse of cleveland. He was an allstar catcher. But its believed this collision would go on to cut short his career. The players union, and owners, if they agree, these will be illegal by next year. And finally, if you remember that College Football kicker from alabama, missed those two field goals. Had another blocked in that game against auburn. Cade foster ended up getting benched. Boy, did he hear it on social media. It set the stage for auburns miracle finish. Foster who wears number 43, recently got a letter in the mail from another 43. Former president george w. Bush. Who wrote to foster and i quote, life has its setbacks, i know. However, you will be a stronger human with time. I wish you all the best. Sincerely, another 43. George w. Bush. What a great thing to do. Thats really lovely. Lets hope that cade has a chance. January 2nd, against oklahoma, in the sugar bowl, in somebodys hometown. Thats right. Could happen. Thanks for that, josh. Now, to that death of a freshman. He died over the weekend, allegedly injured early sunday morning, during what the school calls an unsanctioned pledging event. Police are investigating the incident. And abcs rob nelson is here with that story. Reporter good morning. Initial reports indicate that alcohol was not a factor in this case. But investigators are still trying to find out exactly how this fraternity trip turned tragic. This morning, questions are swirling around a new York City College fraternity, after a hazing ritual allegedly led to the death of a young pledge. Definite appears that multiple individuals were involved. Reporter Authorities Say about 30 members of pi delta si, an asianamerican cultural fraternity traveled to the poconos this weekend. Hong them, chun michael deng. One of the students pledging to the fraternity. Officials say he suffered major brain trauma during the ritual the students performed in the yard of a rented house they were staying. They involved physical contact that became very aggressive. The pledges were carrying weighted bags. And also involved some pushing and shoving and hitting. Reporter investigators say deng was brought inside the residence unresponsive. Rather than calling 911, frat members reportedly waited about two hours before driving him to a hospital 45 minutes away. He was placed on life support early sunday morning and died the following day. College officials called the fraternity event unsanctioned. And said they had no knowledge of this event or that the fraternity was rushing a pledge class. Students at the college are stunned. I never heard of any hazing incident at any fraternity or sorority on this campus. Were very good about that. Thats why im pretty surprised. Reporter no arrest had been made in the case. And its unclear how many people could potentially be charged. The college, which already requires students to undergo training about the dangers of hazing, has launched an internal investigation. People want answers. So tragic. Thanks, rob. We have details about that devastating Airline Crash in San Francisco earlier this year. Three passengers were killed when the south korean plane didnt make the runway. And doumtss just released show the pilots were having trouble flying without computer controls. One called it very stressful. Abcs jim avila has the story. Reporter the ntsb calls the problem automation addiction. Pilots relying too heavily on computer flight controls. Automation must be understood and monitored by flight crews. Reporter in the asiana crash, the pilot inadvertently shut down the automatic throttle and then inexplicably did not realize the 777 jumbo jet had lost so much speed, it would not reach the runway safely, instead plowing into the seawall and practically cartwheeling down the landing strip, killing three passengers and putting 300 others on board in danger. Because these pilots are not trained to fly the airplane manually, they got confused. Reporter cockpit simulation shows the flight was approaching normally. The pilot unfamiliar with local geography asking, is that the golden gate . No sign of panic until 30 feet above the bay. Suddenly, an audible warning. The plane is flying too slow. And the captain orders the junior pilot to go around, attempting to aboard the landing. But its too late. The asiana accident is a huge watershed and a big wakeup call. Reporter nance says it could have been avoided, with one simple maneuver, manually pushing the throttles forward. For Good Morning America, jim avila, abc news, San Francisco. Were going to move on to details on jameis winston, the star quarterback and Heisman Trophy favorite. The Sexual Assault charges were dropped last week. For the first time, were hearing the 911 call made the night of the alleged incident. Abcs matt gutman has the story. Reporter fsu police, how may i help you . Hi.

She got hit. She got hit . Does she know what she got hit with . No. She says she like kept blacking out. She keeps trying to tell me the story. But its very in pieces. And you say she was raped . Yeah. Okay. So, she did not know the person . No. Reporter police say it took her a month to identify that person as the heisman hopeful and then, only in sketchy detail, but winstons person questioned by police say they walked in while the two were having sex. We walked in and she said what are you doing . She said get out. Was there anything that she said or you saw her do that made you think that she was she didnt want to have sex . No. Reporter the eyewitnesses telling police, winston took the girl home a few minutes later and quickly returned. The newlyreleased documents shed light on the investigation that led to the state attorney decision last week not to file Sexual Assault charges against the quarterback. We do not file a charge if we do not feel we have sufficient evidence to make the charge. Reporter for Good Morning America, matt gutman, abc news, new york. Just want this one to go away. I think all sides do. Were going to turn to the shocking light sentence in a deadly drunk driving case. A texas teen given probation and counseling but no jail time for the crash that killed four people back . June. The victims families are stunned. And abcs reena ninan has the story. Reporter anger and sadness. Overnight, family members reacting to a judges surprising decision. It was an alcoholfueled joyride that ultimately led to four people being killed. Sheriff county 911. What is your emergency . Theres a multicar accident in front of my house. Reporter and now, the 16yearold behind the wheel, ethan couch, wont be serving a single day in jail. He may think hes gotten away with something. But he hasnt gotten away with anything. Reporter instead of the 20year sentence texas prosecutors were hoping for, late tuesday, Juvenile Court judge joan boyd gave couch ten years probation. He pleaded guilty to intoxication manslaughter. His blood alcohol level was threetimes the legal limit. And he was driving almost twice the speed limit when he crashed his dads pickup into the victims. This week, couchs defense says he suffers from affluenza. He didnt realize his actions would have consequences. He was raced in a family so wealthy, so privileged the teen didnt realize his actions would have consequences. Teaching him to be a responsible citizen. Thats a consequence. Reporter now, couch will check into a nearly 500,000 Rehab Program in california. Dad and mom will foot the bill. Hes not allowed to see them for two years. The victims families argue, theyll never see the loved ones he took away. My wife and daughter are gone. And there were absolutely no consequences. Reporter for Good Morning America, reena ninan, abc news, new york. I have never heard that phrase before. Affluenza. Neither have i. Never heard it as a formal defense. But i heard of the condition before. Something very different indeed. This is a long day at the office for one woman. It turned into a nightmare. She got locked in the Office Bathroom as she was trying to head home. Trapped for eight desperate hours. And how she got out, she says, is right out of shawshank redemption. It was the longest bathroom break of Karen Perrins life. She was working late friday night and decided to make a stop in the ladies room before she went home. What happened when she tried to leave was something she never expected. The handle would not budge. Reporter she was locked in the bathroom and quickly jumped into action. Jiggling the latch, kicking the door, trying any way to get attention. I decided i should probably try to get the attention of our security team. The Security Camera thats in the hallway. I began pushing paper towels under the door frame. Reporter but at 10 30 on a friday night, there was no one there to help. She didnt have her cell phone to call her husband. Former nfl running back, loni perin. In her panic, she started executing an escape, inspired by the shawshank redemption. It helped me to think of something to do. Reporter she used a chair in the bathroom to break off the inside door handle and began using it to chisel a hole in the wall. I was able to break through at one point. And eventually, able to pick all around that area. And get my hand through. Prayed that door handle was still intact. Reporter after nearly eight hours, karen was free. Her arm took a beating from all of the action. And she was left with contusions on her hand. She says shes still shaken up. But hopes to someday be able to look back on the experience and smile. I believe that one day we will be able to laugh about this. I mean, what are you going to do . Youre in there for eight hours. I would be chiselling away. Proactive, very, very proactive. Where is everybody else . Plus, claustrophobic on top of all that. Were looking back at it and laughing now. So thats good. I like your comment as it was playing, she could have taught him in shawshank redemption. Took 25 years in shawshank redemption. She did it in eight hours. One of my topfive movies.

Parts of ohio, you could pick up more, three to six inches. And then you go to the east coast. It matches up with the next surface low. Its going to grab some of the moisture.

Lets get right to the emotion testimony in the socalled newlywed murder trial. Jordan graham accused of pushing her husband off a cliff just eight days after getting married. Her motherinlaw taking the stand with dramatic testimony. Abcs ryan owens has the latest from missoula, montana. Good morning, ryan. Reporter good morning to you, robin. The prosecution may rest by the end of today. Theyre almost done with witnesses. They got through 18 of them on wednesday, including the victims mother. From day one, this trial has been all about newlywed Jordan Graham. Why did the young bride push her husband off that cliff . Why did she lie about it . On wednesday, prosecutors shifted the focus to her husband. 25yearold cody johnson. His mother, sherri, told the jury how excited her only child was for his wedding day. He told me it was the best day of his life. Starting a family. I always wanted to be a grandma. She sobbed on the stand. And several jurors looked at Jordan Graham, who sat expressionless. Prosecutors say eight days after that wedding, she shoved her husband off a cliff at montanas Glacier National park, because she regretted getting married. His mom recounted at a Memorial Service for her son, she tried to comfort the woman charged with her murder. I put my arm around her and said everything will be okay. She testified her daughterinlaw didnt say a word. The jury also heard from cody johnsons boss and best friend. He testified he was so worried jordan had done something to cody, he broke into the couples house, looking for signs of foul play. Cameron frederickson told us a couple months ago about his early suspicion. Almost positive that jordan had done something or somehow or someway, was a part of what happened to cody. Reporter the jury also heard the voice of Jordan Graham, who has pleaded not guilty. And said she pushed her husband on accident, after he grabbed her arm. Prosecutors played audiotapes from interviews she gave the fbi. In them, she confessed, i pushed and he went over. And then, i took off. Then added, i 100 did not do that on purpose. Once the prosecution rests, its the defenses turn. And the big question for them, will Jordan Graham testify . Most people think thats unlikely, especially since the jury just heard her story in her own words. Robin . Were going to get to that. Were going to bring in our chief abc Legal Affairs anchor, dan abrams. Let me ask you about the testimony of the victims mother on the stand . Shes offering similar testimony as the other witnesses. She lying afterwards. Shes not coming clean. Shes not telling people, i pushed him off the cliff. The difference is, coming from his mother, it is that much more emotional. So, in terms of substance, what shes offering isnt that significant. In terms of emotion, incredibly powerful. Puts a face to it. It really does. You heard what ryan was saying at the end of his report, about Jordan Graham. The jury did hear from her yesterday. Do you think shell take the stand . This could be the reason she doesnt take the stand. In this recorded statement, if you believe her, she didnt commit murder. Shes saying, i didnt do it on purpose. It was selfdefense. Theres inconsistencies in the account and theres problems with it, et cetera. But you could make a very good argument that a lawyer would say, im not going to risk putting my client on the stand. The jurys already heard from her in the form of a recorded statement. They know shes saying this is an accident. And when the prosecution has the burden of proof the way they do in this case, the defense attorney could decide its too risky to put her on the stand at this point. The judge is moving this case along. Weve heard from 31 witnesses. And the case could be done by friday. And when the defense says they have half a day of testimony, that gives you an indication that maybe theyre not going to call her. We have an update on the mysterious death in the parking lot at a Kansas City Chiefs game this month. Linsey davis has the story. I wake up every day with the same nightmare. Reporter its not knowing what caused the death of her 30yearold husband, seen here in home video, that makes it even more difficult for Jennie Van Winkle to move on. Completely senseless. Reporter kansas city investigators are still looking for answers in kyle van winkles mysterious death last week outside arrowhead stadium, during the Kansas City Chiefs game. Some of this may not be figured out. I certainly dont have the answers. Reporter van winkles father, a police sergeant, was inside the stadium, while his son allegedly got into an unlocked jeep in the parking lot that resembled one that belonged to a relative. I was with him from starttofinish that day at the tailgating. Most everybody in our group had some kind of drinks. If i had even thought kyle was a little past where i would have thought, just totally under control, he wouldnt have went to the restroom by himself. I would have followed him and went with him. Reporter but van winkle never returned from the bathroom. Instead, police say they were called to the parking lot after the owner of a green jeep found a strange man inside his vehicle. Investigators say a struggle ensued. Van winkle collapsed. And the brandnew father of a 7weekold son was pronounced dead at the hospital. My life, now, is a reality that i never thought i would ever have to be in. Reporter police have ruled van winkles death a homicide. But no charges have been filed. They say it could be weeks before they know what killed him. Linsey davis, abc news, new york. That is a strange one. It is. Time, now, for the weather. Ginger zee is back. People asking if well have a white christmas. Love that snow. They want to know. I have some answers. We cant do that far out. But let me show you something. We have the historic probabilities of who will have a white christmas. If youre in fuchsia, you have a 90 chance. Were way ahead of ourselves this year. Oklahoma city, for example, usually less than an inch on average. Close to five already. So, this may change. This baby is scooting down a little bit. And more kids will be happy, waking up with the white christmas. Real quick, i promised you the mild weather. 67 los angeles. Lets all dream and go to good morning.

She shot to fame with that huge hit the way. Youre hearing it right now. A low note for the pop star. Shes being named in a lawsuit, claiming one of its lines was ripped off. And paula faris has the story. Reporter just 20 years old, theyre calling her the next mariah carey. This morning, Ariana Grandes megahit song the way, rocketed her to fame, is headed the wrong way, to court. That song, under fire, all because of this lyric. What we have to do right here is go back. Reporter now, listen to this. What we have to do right here is go back. Way back. Back into time. Reporter grande and her label have been hit with a Copyright Infringement lawsuit over the song. The lawsuit alleges grandes hit song sounds comparable to the 1972 song troglodyte by the jimmy castor bunch. It would be strikingly same lar to the similarity of the words, vocal style and rhythm, are clear indicators that the way is copying troglodyte. Reporter grandes legal team told abc news, the alleged offending materials were not provided by ariana. And we trust that the cowriters and producers will resolve the claim with minder. The toy company goldie blocks and the beastie boys are parody. And robin thick sued marvin gaves family over his hit, blurred lines. I dont think its any coincidence that a lot of these lawsuits are happening at a time when artists of the 70s and 80s are finding it difficult to monetize their catalog.

The eight others survived in the water. All wearing life jackets. One, in fact, swam to shore to molokai. The others were rescued by helicopter and by boat. No word on what may have caused the plane to go down. Stunning new details and video of this deadly Asiana Airlines crash at San Francisco back in july. Federal investigators now say that the pilot was, indeed, worried about landing at the airport. But was too embarrassed to tell other crew members. Investigators say that the crew relied too heavily, meanwhile, on computerized flight controls.

I mean, that was really im kind of jealous. This is great, too, you guys. We started with an incredible tribute this morning. Youtube gathered some of the people and animals that have made 2013 such an amazing year. Its a viral video titled what does 2013 say. And it features nods to, what does the fox say, kid president , some of the many dance videos. Robin thick. Two dozen goats. So, what happens when you roll all of those into one video . It goes viral, of course. This youtube rewind has been viewed over 12 million times since yesterday. It is the most Popular Video on the site right now. And i ask all of you, since we talk about youtube a lot and whats happening in the world of social media, what do you think was the most downloaded video of the year was. Any guesses .

Mark my words. Cookie balls. Go to the next story. Might want to take the camera off of josh right now. Josh . Thats okay, josh. Thank you. Robin, i think its time for you to continue. Shall we . Lets move on to oprah. And her startling revelation about motherhood and children. She said it was never a dream of hers and opens up about why. Abcs aditi roy. How are you doing, josh . Reporter from red carpet to magazine covers, Oprah Winfrey seems to have it all. Just this week, the megamogul was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild award, for her role in the butler. Everything you want and everything you have is because of that butler. Reporter but the tv icon, actress and humanitarian, is not a mother. And now, a stunning confession. The billionaire who has been with Longtime Love Steadman Graham for decades, tells the Hollywood Reporter she doesnt regret not having kids. She said, if i had kids way back, those kids would grow up and be on a show like my talk show was and have to talk about how screwed up they are. Reporter in the article, oprah, who at 14 gave birth to a baby who lived for a few weeks, said if i had kids, my kids would hate me. Because something would have had to suffer and it would have probably been them. Oprah also says, while her best friend had childhood dreams about having kids, i was having daydreams how i could be Martin Luther king. But the talk show legend did say in an interview last year, she enjoys being a mother figure to the girls in her Leadership Academy in south africa. Ill tell you what brought me the greatest happiness. Really unexpected. A being able to step into the mother role and be a real mother, friend, companion, adviser, comforter. I didnt know i would love it so much. She considers those girls her kids. She said, this all was meant to be. I am ready for light blast. Reporter the iconic role model has plenty of wisdom to pass on to her girls and the world. You cant listen to the naysayers. You have to hold on to what it is you really want to do. As always, very open, very honest. Absolutely. And we continue to the double standards women sometimes face in the workplace. Theyre in a commercial that seems to be the word of the day. Abc goes into the ad that has men and women talking. Reporter its a shampoo add thats speaking volumes. And were not just talking voluminous locks. The ad from pantene, breaking down double standards so many can relate to. A man is a boss. While the woman is bossy. A man, depended for being dedicated. A woman condemned for being selfish. This ad is striking a chord with a lot of women. As a beauty company, its saying women can be beautiful. And there shouldnt be a doublestandard. Reporter the ad airs in the philippines. But has gone viral on the web. Racking up 5 million view and counting on youtube in just over a month. It even got a personal endorsement from facebook c. O. O. Sheryl sandberg, whose book lean in is all about women in the workplace. She posted the ad on facebook, writing, this is one of the most powerful videos ive ever seen. Lean in prize of the day for sure. The ad, drawing comparisons to the dove real beauty campaign, which got women talking about selfimage and confidence. Do you think youre more beautiful than you say . There are month women in top jobs than ever before. Its a really important time to be spreading this message. You know, i think that pantene is right on. Reporter perhaps the last line of the pantene ad sums it up best. Dont let labels hold you back. Be strong and shine. For Good Morning America, bianna golodryga, abc news, new york. Really like that. It is powerful. We do see dan abrams here. That can mean only one thing. The jury is out. Good morning, guys. Good to be back. First up on the docket, a mother who puts no gifts on her daughters Birthday Party invite. As you can imagine, causing serious controversy. She says it means there is, quote, no need to try to figure out what some kid i barely know would want and possibly crowding their house with crap they dont care about. Furthermore, she says couldnt get all that on the invite. Exactly. It is tacky to put gift registries or requests for gifts on birthday invitations. Shes right about the second one. I dont think i agree with the reason for putting no gifts on. Im in a nogifts camp. No gifts. Scrooge stephanopoulos wants no gifts. Theyre having fun with their friends. Theyre getting of gifts from their friends. You dont need to add to the affluenza we were talking about. In lieu of gifts, toys for tots. Or other charities, shelters, they are saying, dont give the gifts to the child. I heard a lot of children love that. One Birthday Party we went to, everybody brought a packet of seeds and planted a garden together. Thats something it was really, really fun. Give the kids a gift certificate. Let people figure it out later. Is it just me that thinks, its a birthday . What do you mean no gifts . Its okay. You do a little bit of both. Depends on what age. She was 11. And registry 10, 11. I feel like 11s the right age to think about that. I have no problems for a registry for a birthday. For little kids . Depends on how little. You figure, hey, you want to get what you want, right . Youre such a tough guy. Father. Fatherhood softens you up. Where did you go . People say lets go to social. I boycott any Birthday Party for a kid who set up a gift registry. Too much of our culture already sending the wrong message. From facebook, my son does a birthday and christmas registry with toys r us. He is aware that he will not get everything on it. But it does make life easier for the family. I dont know. No way. Kid registries, yeah. Im not into that. Its just getting what you want. Again, nice work on the music here. Thank you. Thank you very much. Its going to get louder as we keep talking. Next up on the docket, it turns out 80 , 80 of infections are transmitted by hands, according to the cdc. Is it time to start discouraging handshakes in the workplace . I was stunned when i saw this number. Why should youre getting to me today. Why shouldnt major corporations start saying to people, lets start thinking about other ways. How about this nod. Fistbumps. Even the elbow is better. When i came back from the transplant, i couldnt do it. I have to say, though, there are a lot of people that extended their hands. I said, im sorry, i cant. I did feel bad. You feel like youre being rude. Even though i had an explanation. It seems 1,000 years down the road on the handshake, though . A lot of people are like that. I think theres something to be said there. I have no Problem Companies suggesting to employees, lets not youre not closing a deal, right . Wash your hands. John on facebook say, absolutely not. This country was built on hand shakes. Next up, a story about a woman spending five years and 160,000 to get back a wedding band she bought for her thenhusband is leading to new questions about the importance of men wearing wedding rings. My take, it is jewelry. If you do not want to wear it, you should not wear it. Man or woman. There should be no obligation. Says the single guy. Why is she spending 160,000. I dont understand why she spent 160,000 to get it back. Legal fees. Well talk about that later. Thats talking about the beauty of being in the legal industry. George, i want to know do you wear it . Have you worn it . Answer this forral for ali. What would ali have said . I was going to say, the wife should have a say. 100 . I think it goes both ways, too. Its not just demanding or requiring or asking what the man does. I guess you would have to ask, what is the reason . Right. If youre doing it they dont like jewelry. Yes. But because you dont want is that so crazy . Again, were down the road on the rings and the handshakes. Were sort of not really. Theres no sense theyre not the same. Nice try. Real quickly. If a man doesnt wear his wedding ring 43 said its okay if he doesnt wear the wedding ring. 57 said no. I didnt get to the snuggle. Ill save that one. Were coming back with more. Were coming back with more. Good morning, america, good morning, america. Good morning, america all you have to do is sit here and say, Good Morning America. Thats what you guys look like good morning, america. good morning. Im kristen sze. B. A. R. T. And its two biggest unions are set to resume talks this morning with a federal mediator.

And you think of all of the great acts that got a great start there on soul train. Its a beautiful read and book. A couple here. This one i really want to point out. Here now in a world cup year. The u. S. National team, heading to rio, come next summer. Were also celebrating 100 years of soccer in this country. A beautiful game for a beautiful country. Its just chock full of history. And takes us back to 1950, when the u. S. Men pulled a huge upset over england back then. But it captures hope solo and the great stride that u. S. Women have made. Been the dominant team in the world for a long, long time now. So, its terrific for men and women. For the fans in both. And for sarina. Again, the u. S. Women are such wonderful role models. Also, a quick one here. Caught in the act. Its actors, candid snapshots. Its going to be your favorite. I have i love interior design. This is something i love. Great ideas called remix.

Award season off to a running start in hollywood. The nominations for the 71st Golden Globes came in just moments ago. Here with the highlights and the lowdown, jess cagle, editor of entertainment weekly. And the new issue has the host, tina fey . Tina fey and amy poehler are guest editors this week. They did work. And they were actually funny. Are you . Dont buy that thing. Its fantastic. Its great. Lets get down to the nomination. Best actress in a dramatic tv series. Theyre being announced as we speak. But claire danes was not nominated for homeland. She won last year. That was really shocking. Michelle dockery from Downton Abbey nominated. Julianna margulies. Kerry washington. Robin wright. But some of the standbys were shutout for taylor schilling, who is on orange is the new black. If your show has the word black in it, youre in. Comedy series, a newcomer. Brooklyn ninenine. That was nominated. I expected arrested development to make a big showing for netflix. And it did not get nominated. We have the big bang theory. Girls nominated again. Modern family. I know youre happy about that. I was disappointed that veep was not nominated. How is it not nominated . Julia louisdreyfus was nominated for actress. The series is so good. They learn new words. Sure, jess. Looking at the films now. American hustle, saving mr. Banks. Weve been talking about them on the show. Were in the comedy drama zone. Theres an incredible gray area now. Exactly. From straight comedies or dramas. All of the potential nominees for best comedy, one of them were a comedy. Well have them in a second. Theres not one single among the nominees, american hustle. Thats kind of funny. August osage county. Thats not terrific movies. It didnt get the nod. Its on my potential list. I put it down as look out for it. Its kind of a comedy. Well see how that one goes. Who decides where it falls . The studios strategize. If they have a movie they feel like i feel we could get a nomination in the comedy category, not the drama category, they will push for that. But then, the Hollywood Foreign press association can sometimes say to them and say, we think this should be in the other category. The great thing about the Golden Globes, for me, it doesnt do what the oscars tries. To say best movie. It allows for two films. Worthy films. Especially since the academy tends to frown on comedies straight. Exactly. I love that they honor comedies. This year, a lot of the comedies are not all that funny. Best supporting actor in a series, miniseries or tv movie. So far, its not looking good for homeland. But aaron paul for breaking bad. I think youre going to see a lot of love for breaking bad. Rob lowe. He was great in that. The good wife doing well this morning. Josh charles got nominated for that. And i love corey stoll in house of cards. Hes phenomenal. He might not be back. I dont know if well be seeing him again. But he was good in that show. Best actor comedy tv series. Oh, in comedy. Jason bateman from arrested development. Even though the show didnt get nominated, he did. Great straight man. Theres nobody better. Theres just nobody better. Don cheadle from house of lies. Michael j. Fox, no surprise there. Also, andy samberg from brooklyn ninenine. Thats the tv side of it. Were going to delve into the movie side of the golden globe nominations, when we come back. Stick around. Back, now, with the golden globe nominations for film. American hustle leads the golden globe nominations with seven each. Jess, lets start out, jess cagle from entertainment weekly. Best picture drama. 12 years a slave. American hustle in the comedy category. Those are the two movies that i think are making strong showings and looking good. 12 years a slave. Captain phillips. Gravity, no surprise there. Two other little movies. Philomena. Judi dench, fantastic movie. And the Hollywood Foreign press association loves that film. They love judi dench. And also, rush, the ron howard movie about racing is another one it has not gotten a lot of critics and about f1, which is popular outside of the United States. Yes. Its about a foreign race. The Foreign Press association. All makes sense. Best picture . Comedy, american hustle, again. Not a comedy. But glad it got nominated. Joaquin phoenix, who else but Joaquin Phoenix would fall in love with a gadget voice. Like scarlett johansson. The movie was nominated. Inside llewyn davis. Nebraska, a terrific movie. And the wolf of wall street. Is that a comedy . We havent seen that one. Youve seen it. There are moments that you might find funny. But it is certainly not a straight setup, punch line comedycomedy. You could say its a very, very black comedy. Very dark comedy. More nominations. Best actor in a drama movie. Sheila for 12 years of slave. Idris elba, under the wire. But the movie is not mandela walk to freedom. Tom hanks, captain phillips. I think that will go to the oscars, as well. Matthew mcconaughey in Dallas Buyers Club. He was great in that. It was terrific. The movie did not get nominated in drama. Jared leto. Or comedy. Thats right. Im surprised that Dallas Buyers Club did not get nominated in comedy because Everything Else did. And Robert Redford for all is lost. And best actress. That lineup is stellar. Cate blanchett, sandra bullock, judi dench, emma thompson. Supporting actress, jennifer lawrence, julia roberts, sally hawkins. And no nomination for oprah in the butler. I thought she was going to get it. I wanted to see julia, oprah and jennifer lawrence. Jennifer lawrence in american hustle. Shes fantastic. I cant believe that oprah didnt get a nod. She was good in this movie. This indicates what could happen in the oscars . Its a mixed bag. Its not a huge indicator. The s. A. G. Awards are a better indicator. Those people vote on the oscars. The Hollywood Foreign press does not. Always knows. Our man in the know.
