And falling flat. Outrage over this new pepsi ad featuring Kendall Jenner. Why critics are blasting it as tone deaf. And how pepsi is pushing back today, wednesday, april 5th, 2017. From nbc news, this is today, with matt lauer and savannah guthrie. Live from studio 1a in Rockefeller Plaza. And good morning. Welcome to today on a wednesday morning. A lot of people raising eyebrows over that pepsi ad. When you try to mix politics or social issues with a soda ad, its tricky. Its hard to pull it off. And pepsi is answering for that ad this morning. Well have much more coming up. But lets start with the top story. Its a surprising reaction from the white house overnight to yet another north Korean Missile test. That provocation, just one of the National Crises now facing the Trump Administration. We have complete coverage, beginning with Hallie Jackson at the white house. Hallie, good morning to you. Reporter hi, matt. Good morning. If kim jongun is looking to prod a response out of the u. S. , hes not getting one. The secretary of state issuing what amounts to a no comment. And before this late launch, the white house is indicating the clock is running out. This provocation comes a day before President Trump is set to meet with chinas leader. This is sure to be at the top of their agenda. The timing of this latest Ballistic Missile test, no coincidence, north korea launching one day before President Trump is set to meet with chinese president xi jinping for a twoday summit at maralago. South korean Officials Say the missile reached an altitude of 117 miles before crashing into the sea of japan. The launch, triggering a terse statement from Rex Tillerson. North korea launched another intermediate range Ballistic Missile. The United States has spoken enough about north korea. We have no further comment. Its the latest in a series of missile launches from north korea recently. The country also conducting Nuclear Tests and warning its ready to test an intercontinental Ballistic Missile at any time. On the campaign trail, thencandidate trump talking tough on north korea. North korea is more dangerous and defiant than ever. Reporter and now, as president , his administration is taking a hard line on north korean efforts to develop a Nuclear Weapons program, calling on china to rein in kim jongun, the leader of the rogue country. In an interview with the Financial Times published sunday, President Trump says hes ready to act to curb north Koreas Nuclear ambitions with or without chinas help. China will decide to help us with north korea or they wont, the president said. If china is not going to solve north korea, we will. U. N. Ambassador Nikki Haley Says she hopes the summit at maralago will create a good working relationship between president s trump and xi. Thats the goal, to show that theyre willing to act on north korea. Reporter this administration has been pushing china to take a tougher stance on north korea, a white house official says that will be a matter of interest tomorrow and friday at maralago. Hes likely to be asked about it today by reporters during a press conference with the king of jordan. Matt and savannah . Hallie, thank you. Now, to a troubling Foreign Policy incident facing the white house and the world. This morning, President Trump and other World Leaders are condemning a suspected chemical weapons attack in syria that killed dozens of people and children. We should warn you, the images of the aftermath are disturbing. Nbcs correspondent Richard Engel has the story. Good morning. Reporter good morning. They are absolutely disturbing. A u. S. Intelligence official tells nbc news it appears this was a chemical weapons attack. But russia, an ally of the syrian regime, has a different explanation, saying a weapons depot was targeted, releasing toxins into the air. Reporter the images are horrific and hard to tell, showing telltale signs of a chemical weapons attack. No blood, only the dead and injured on the ground, after succumbing to what witnesses describe a poison gas. This boy, using all his strength just to breathe. First responders dousing the victims with water, stripping off their clothes to wash off the invisible contaminant. Medics and volunteers, rushing people to clinics. The gas attacks are continuing every day and no one is doing anything to stop these gas attacks. Reporter they claim Bashar Al Assads Syrian Army Fired the chemical nerve agent sarin. While condemning the attack, President Trump took a shot at his predecessor, barack obama, saying in a statement, the heinous actions by the Bashar Al Assad regime are a consequence of the past administrations weakness. Trump is referring to 2013 when the u. S. Threatened military action after more than a thousand people were killed in another alleged chemical attack by the assad regime. A year earlier president obama warned against using the weapons. A red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemicals moving around or being utilized. That would change my calculus. Reporter but Vladimir Putin assads ally, swooped in with a deal, offering to help rid syria of chemical weapons, averting any further talk from president obama of war. Other victims of tuesdays attack were taken to a makeshift clinic built in a cave to protect it. A father there kissed his daughter goodbye. In a nearby room, this activist was recording what he was seeing, saying warplanes were still overhead. Then, hospitals are often targeted in this war, a war that respects no conventions. Amazing the actor survived. Syrian army denied it used chemical weapons. Activists say there were five more air strikes in the same rebelheld part of syria this morning. Back to you. Richard engel, thank you. Lets bring in Nbc National Security analyst, jeremy bash. He served as chief of staff at the cia and the Defense Department during the Obama Administration. Good morning to you. Good morning, matt and savannah. President trump said the civilized world has to Pay Attention to what happened in syria. Then, he went to blame on the Obama Administration, not being tough on the red line for chemical weapons used by assad. Is this time for the blame game . What are his real options . And doesnt he need to articught now . Hes the president. The blame game never saved the life of an innocent child. And the question on the table for this National Security council and this commanderinchief is what now . The military options boil down to this. Air strikes from a military aircraft, or Cruise Missile warships off of the coast, would be to punish assad and prevent his warmaking abilities in the conducting of air strikes in the future against civilian populations. It sounds simple. But serious air defenses are dense. Theyre sophisticated. Our pilots would be at a heightened level of risk over syrian skies. And we would have to push russia aside because they are there. And thats not something this white house is willing to do. Quickly, jeremy. Blame game aside. It is worth examining what happened here. The Obama Administration set up that red line. And then said, we dont need to do military options because we got this deal to get the chemical weapons out of syria. Turns out apparently that did not work, all the weapons arent gone because weve seen them used recently. Thats right, savannah. What also has failed is any diplomatic effort to take assad out of power. I talked about the military options. The reality is in a ng lo run only a diplomatic solution will remove assad and bring syria back together again. Let me ask you about north korea before we go. They testfired another missile. It comes as President Trump is about to meet with the leader of china. Kim jongun is saying im not going to be ignored. What options do we have there, jeremy . I thought it was an interesting move to give him the silent treatment, as President Trump sits down with president xi over the next couple days, hes going to try to put the screws to the chinese leadership to say, use your leverage and your economic influence in pyongyang. He also said hed curb Nuclear Ambitions in north korea with or without china. Preemptive military action, that would be dangerous. North korea could send artillery fire into seoul. Theres 10 Million People there. We have 28,500 troops. I would not recommend military action at this point. Thank you very much. The white house is doubling down on its effort to revive the republicans failed health care bill. Also overnight, the battle over President Trumps Supreme Court nominee intensified with Democrats Holding the floor on the senate in opposition to that pick. Kristen welker, good morning.

A showdown, now set for thursday, with republicans in the majority, poised to use the Nuclear Option needed to approve gorsuch. Also in the spotlight, ivanka trump. Now speaking out in a rare interview. I would say not to conflate lack of public denouncement with silence. Reporter responding to critics, saying she should speak out more on issues like gay rights and climate change. Where i disagree with my father, he knows it. And i express myself with total candor. Reporter now, ivanka has her fathers ear in a different capacity, federal employee, serving as special assistant to the president. Ivanka pushing back, when asked about criticism she is complicit in her fathers agenda. If being complicit is wanting to be a force for good and to make a positive impact, im complicit.

Andrea, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, matt. Former obama National Security adviser susan rice is at the center of the new political firestorm, fanned by the trump white house, denying to nbc that the Obama Administration used intelligence for political purposes. As critics are charging that the administration is trying to divert attention from the investigation into russian meddling in the election. Susan rice, in an exclusive interview with us, responding to a Bloomberg News report, that the white house is zeroing in on whether she requested the names of Trump Officials, caught up in surveillance be revealed or unmasked for political reasons. Rice insisting any unmasking requests were part of her job. We do it to protect the american people, to do our jobs in the National Security room. Thats the only reason. Did you leak the name of mike flynn . I leaked nothing to nobody. And never have and never would. Reporter the white house continues to fuel the controversy. The more we find out about this, the more we learn that there was clearly something there. Reporter its the latest in a series of charges by the Trump Administration that critics say are designed the distract from the russia investigation, and justify the president s explosive tweet a month ago. Just found out that obama had my wires tapped in trump tower. Shot down immediately by Top Republicans and fbi director james comey. I have no information that supports those tweets.

Reporter the British Intelligence, and the nsa director, shooting the story down. Did you request that your counterparts should wiretap mr. Trump on behalf of mr. Obama . No, sir, nor would i. Reporter the third charge, dhe vin nunes claiming hes seen intelligence that Trump Officials were swept up in legal surveillance leading president tum to say he felt vindicated. But nunes walked back the charge, saying he did not know if Trump Officials had been surveilled or mentioned by others. The information he used came from officials inside the trump white house. And today, the wall street journal, quoting a republican official familiar with House Intelligence Committee members, is reporting that mike flynn and and one other unidentified trump official were unmasked. Flynn, on a call with the russian ambassador. Another, on a matter unrelated to russia. The journal reporting susan rice was not the official that requested mike flynn be unmasked.

And this morning, were focusing on something we talked about yesterday. Heart attacks and the importance of defibrillators. Celebrity trainer, bob harper, says one of those devices helped save his life. Were going to talk with him and dr. Oz in a moment. First, National Investigative correspondent, jeff rossen, is here with an important test. Reporter good morning, guys. Less than 3 of americans are trained in cpr. If your heart stops and no one helps, your chance of surviving is at 6 . But theres an aed that anybody can use. But most of us have no clue where they are in our officers and schools and as bob harper knows, our gyms. Would you know where to found it in an emergency . This morning, were putting you to the test. One. Thats right. Youre in my house right now. Reporter bob harper is the face of fitness. Inspiring contestants on nbcs the biggest loser. But in february, a sudden emergency. Harper collapsed while at the gym, suffering a heart attack. Speaking exclusively about it here on today. I was dead. I was on the ground dead. They started performing cpr on me. They pulled out the aeds and used that on me twice. Reporter an aed, an automated external defibrillator saved his life. Harpers gym had one. But many dont. 15 states, plus washington, d. C. , require aeds in gyms. If theres one available, would you know where it is . To find out, weve come here to the new york sports club. They have an aed here. Its near the front entrance. And were going the test out real customers. Can they find this . How fast can they find it when seconds matter. Hi. Sorry to brother you. Jeff rossen from nbc. Im going to ask you a quick question. Somebody just had a heart attack around here, find the aed. No idea. Reporter no idea . Cant find it . Sorry. Reporter cant find it . I ask this woman. Find the aed. I dont know where it is. Reporter she does try. Scouring the entire floor. Finally, going upstairs. But she just walked right past it. Vnchl eventually, she finds it. Watching it all, sarah gillon. It was too lock. We find that defibrillator of 60 seconds of the person collapsing. Reporter this woman has never heard of it. Aed . You know what that is . No. Reporter automatted external defibrillator . Do you know where the defibrillator is . No. Okay. Reporter when she asks other people. The defibrillator is . No one else knows. She gets warmer when she heads upstairs. A staffer finally shows her. Right here. Here it is. Unfortunately, you took so long to find it, that persons chance of survival would be slim. My god. Reporter we dont know where they are. Youre like the rest of us. I didnt know i had to know where it was. Reporter what should we be doing to make ourselves better . Today, we should go to our work polices, our schools, our gyms and find the defibrillator now so we are prepared when an emergency occurs. Reporter such good advice. Most gyms with an aed, the staff is trained in cpr. Somebody should be grabbing the aed and somebody should be getting an employee. And the best part about the machines, theyre easy to use. I learned how to do it. Now, you will, too. Bob harper, with us, along with mehmet oz, host of the dr. Oz show. Youve become familiar with this thing, havent you . My favorite piece of equipment in the gym right now. A lot of us are intimidated. I would think, i can do more harm than good. You cant. You open up the device. It will tell you everything you need to do. Most importantly, stay calm. Call 911. It will tell you both those things. Stay calm. Follow these instructions. Its loud. It will tell you what to do. Youre doing chest compressions. When the device is identified, rip off of the cloethes. The patches have a map on them, telling you where to put one. Put one below the nipple. And the other one above. Once thats done, get away. Its analyzing. Thats all you do. Its not going to shock the patient if it doesnt need a shock. No. And it wont shock you, either. It will start counting down. Throe, two dont touch. Shock delivered. And youre done. The chance of your surviving, you go do your chest compressions, it will keep going over and over until it saves your life. Every minute it take yos s you find this device, reduces survival by 10 . This is an amazing opportunity. You survived with a 6 chance. That chance doubles, triples, even more if you can do chest compressions and get to this advi advice. What youre doing, in the duration of this segment, someone will have died in america. You still feel of where they lingered. They hit they were co compressing my chest so hard, for a month, i was feeling it. And i had pneumonia on top of it. Thats another piece of it. I have to say, its the dummy here, i would be afraid to do the chest compressions. How do you know if the person needs them and thats whats called for .

Investigators say four days before his death, greenwood emailed county officials that he felt threatened by someone he helped put in jail, writing i believe that Eric Baumgart is threat to mine and my familys safety. Baumgart is still serving time and one of many enemies that greenwood made in his 30year career as a Police Officer and prosecutor. They say hes not considered a suspect at this time.

Its highlighted by an emotional service, in the wake of the terror attack in london. Keir simmons is at westminster abbe this morning. Good morning. Reporter the duke and dut duchess of cambridge are at westminst Westminster Abbey behind me. The three young royals are attending a service for unity and opposed to terrorism. Of course, at the abbey, where their mother dianas funeral was held 20 years ago. How proud diana would be if she were here. This morning, her sons, with kate, supporting victims of lontdens terror attack. Attending a service at Westminster Abbey. Jesus said to him, go. Reporter minutes from the place where last month, five people died. Last night, the duchess of cambridge, the daughterinlaw diana never met, with so much confidence. And prince harry, in an emotional speech, remembering his mom and a cause that was close to her heart. 20 years ago, in the last months of her life, my mother campaigned to draw attention to the horrific and indiscriminate impact of land mines. Reporter harry himself has visited angola where his mother famously walked close to a mine field. And he has met victims of land mines, just as she did, comforting them in her own special way. She met with those who had suffered life changing injuries as a result of antipersonnel mines. She listened to their stories and helped share them with the world. Reporter harry, who was just 12 when his mom died, a loss he now says took him decades to talk about, paying tribute to her last night. She knew she had a big spotlight to shine. And she used it to bring attention on the people that others had forgotten, ignored or were too afraid to support. Reporter this year, the 20th anniversary of dianas death, will be challenging for prince charles, too. Perhaps for different reasons. Charles and camilla in italy this week, meeting the pope. But even this moment will draw comparisons with the time that charles and diana met pope john paul. Dianas influence, still felt today. Most of all, in the character and charisma of her two sons.

Going to take a turn and talk about other stories that are on our minds today. Time to trend. New pepsi ad, features Kendall Jenner. Causing a controversy online. The ad shows jenner in a photo shoot, while protesters are nearby. In progress, tears off her beg and goes to join the action. This goes to the moment that jenner breaks through the crowd, hands an officer a pepsi and the protest turns into cheering and applause. The backlash was immediate. I cant believe Kendall Jenner stopped Police Brutality with pepsi. Many were upset with this moment. Its striking resemblance from the black lives matter protest. Pepsi responded saying this is a global ad that reflects people coming together in a spirit of harmony. We think thats an Important Message to convey. Now, i remember that i want to buy the world a coke commercial. Maybe this was the intent. But apparently, did not go over well. We talk on the show a lot about if they get you talking about it is, is that a success . In this case, it seems to be a miss. We saw this yesterday in the orange room around noon. Kendall jenner tweeted this out. Weve never seen a fast and furious response to this. And things are controversial for a polarized nation. Usually, theres two sides to this.

Joe fryer talked to some of the victims and survivors trying to move past that gruesome crime, nearly half a century later. Reporter it has been said the decade of love came to a sudden, violent end in august 1969, shattered by the manson family murders. Its something that stuck with me, ever since that day. Reporter now, even after half a century, families are fighting to tell the victims stories. Speak for the people who cant speak for themselves. Reporter and keep the killers behind bars. Go rigde a horse. I dont want one family, not one family to go through what my family did. Reporter it all began when l. A. Police were called to the home of actress sharon tate, wife of filmmaker roman polanski. Jerry derosa was first on the scene and started talking about it. It affected my wife. She was afraid. Reporter tate had been murder aid long with jay sebring, vole tech wachowski and steven parent. When you saw this scene, what was going through your mind . A lot of things go through your mind. You think what happened . Was this a party that went bad . A drug deal that went bad . Reporter the next night, leno and Rosemary Labianca were killed. The words rise and death to pigs on their walls. The deaths were pinned on a cult, led by charles manson. Hes not an educated man. But hes a born manipulator of people. Reporter he did the killing spree hoping to incite a race war. In 1987, he showed no remorse. Theres no need to feel guilty. If i wanted to kill somebody, id take this book and beat you to death with it and i wouldnt feel a thing. Reporter manson and his followers were convicted and sentenced to die. But when californias Death Penalty was ruled unconstitut n unconstitutional in 1972, the punishments were changed to life in prison. Do you foeel like there has bee true justice in this case . Absolutely not. As a matter of fact, the word justice is so inappropriate in this case. Reporter today, relatives of the victims regularly testify at parole hearings, and spearhead online petitions to keep the manson family behind bars. Our familys involvement has nothing to do with anger or revenge or hatred. They cam out of love. It is countless how many lives were shattered by the path of destruction that i was a part of. Reporter one of the killers, patricia krenwinkel, is 65 years old. The thing i try to remember sometimes, the what i am today, is not what i was at 19. Reporter she was the subject of a recent documentary called life after manson. These are my choices. I learned choice. I learned choice at the most horrific cost. Reporter krenwinkels parole hearing was delayed until june. Victims relatives want the panel to see if she meets the criteria for battered women syndrome. Just wake up. Just because theyre over the age of 60 does not make them nondangerous individuals. Reporter as for the others, Leslie Van Houten was recommended for release last year. But the governor reversed it. Tex watson has been denied parole 17 times. Susan atkins died in 1979. And theres manson. Ever since hes been incarcerated, every two years, manson will do something that gets media attention. Reporter at age 82, manson was reportedly rushed to the hospital with a serious illness. But is now back in prison. We hold no delight in his demise or his suffering or his death or any of those people. We want hem to live the rest of their lives behind bars. Reporter anthony demaria, nephew of jay sebring.

Shows on tlc. I didnt do it on purpose. Your first tip is to kind of personalize. Definitely. How do you do that . One of the things we always do, we bring things home from our travels. We never buy what other thinks are souvenir. Baskets are great to bring home. A great addition to matter where you travel to. You can pack this stuff flat, but the idea of hanging these types of things on your wall is great. This is our version of an entry. And then, use baskets, as well, for not only decor but storage. A hot trend right now is throw a tas sell on something. Really . Jewelry, all over the place. You find a tassel and throw it on there. Personalization. Youre zhuszhing it up a bit. Small touches that make the space feel like it has an extra layer. If decor can be storage, thats a good thing, right . Lets move over to this farm table. And youre incorporating nature, which is wonderful. One of the things about nature is its inexpensive. You can buy flowers at the Grocery Store and throw them in a juice glass or small cup. And you can do a series of them. Air plants. Geodes. It feels assembled over time. If youre not spending a lot of money, you dont want to have an instant interior. One of the things we believe, is your space should not feel precious. One of the things we like, especially with a dining room table is kind of like Grand Central for our family. Everybody comes there. Your coffee, your magazines. Do your homework. We have meetings there. We have a 2yearold. Theres crayons all over our table. Exactly. I cant be too fancy. I have an eye for detail. You have the mismatched chairs which is fun. We tried to get that by you, savannah. Im on my game this morning. You are awake. This is a cost saving tip.

Good to have you here. Good morning. Were going to make two recipes. You guarantee theyre going to give you the thumbs up at the end of this. I cant guarantee anything. But this is my kids favorite recipe. Theyre watching at home. Levy, receiita, living ston. And the ingredients are simple. Well start with the chicken wings. Not a lot in terms of ingredi t ingredients. Salt, lemon, paprika, honey and olive oil. You get your wings. And put some lemon juice. You want to mix those up for me a little bit. Make your rub. I have garlic, flake salt, one of the best salt for you guys. You dont want the overprocessed salt. How far issed advance do we this . Two hours. Olive oil, and lemon juice. Hes getting heavy in the kitchen here. I know. Practicing a little bit. Here. Put it in there. The trick on this, guys, massage it really good. Make sure everything gets covered. Were on tv. Were going to skip that part. Another trick is, you want to put in the baking sheet with aluminum foil. You want to put the skin facing down. This is going to go in the oven twice, right . Yes. Youre going to cook at 375 for 45 minutes. Take them out, flip them over. Another ten minutes. And put on broil. The trick on this i see smiling faces. Thats good. The trick of this chicken is, the honey. Is it the hits or the honey . A little bit of both. You drizzle it for me. Drizzle honey on top of it. Not too much. You dont want to go too crazy. And put on broil for two to three minutes. Take it out. Put on broil again. When you put on broil for the second time, watch the oven like a hawk. It can get burned really fast. With the side dish youre going to make with the chicken wings is couscous. But you managed to sneak some vegetables in there. Exactly. You want to make the vegetables, the main ingredient, as well. Be loud and fun. What we did was, we did israeli c couscous. You can use the wheat version. Going to rinse it and put in boiled water for 10 to 12 minutes. Cover up. You want to make sure you mix it up throughout the process a little bit so it doesnt stick in the bottom. Look what youve done. You took your carrots and made alphabet letters out of them. Youre going to cut your carrots into squares like this. And i usually to my kids, the first letter of their names. Be careful, please. Oh, come on. You want to try to do it . Its supereasy. After you cut the square, you want to slice it thinner. Like this. To cook them up. And youre going to boil about three minutes, really quick, with your broccoli. Going to mix everything up. No other spices . Just the couscous and the vegetables . I make it very basic for the picky eaters at home. Please customize this to what your kids are used to. On my wings, i usually put my favorite steak seasoning, herbs and extra things. But again, we try to make a recipe that its across the board. Kidsproof. Are you ready for the moment of truth . Kids, you have paddles in front of you. One side says thumbs up. One side says thumbs down. On the count of three. Talking about the chicken wings and the couscous with the vegetables. On the count of throe, you show me which one you give it, a thumbs up or a thumbs down. Remember, you can break her heart on this. Im hiding. And my kids heart. No pressure at all. Come back up here.
