Investigators are examining how virtually untraceable radicalization lead to the San Bernardino plot. One hatched and then hidden from friends, family and Law Enforcement. This is what the president said in his weekly address saturday. It is entirely possible that these two attackers were radicalized to commit this act of terror.

Just ahead on tonights cbs evening news, the future of the facebook fortune, and a new trend for dot come billionaires glor Mark Zuckerberg and his wife made headlines last week pledging to donate 99 of their facebook shares. That stock is worth 45 billion right now. Though some have been critical of the move. Here to explain cbs Business Analyst jill sha linger. Why the backlash . Well, this is about the way they formed this organization. So most people have a charitable organization, its called a 501c3. Zuckerberg formed something called a limited liability company. It offers more flexibility. Yes, that company can give to charity, but it can also make donations to politicians, to lobbyists, can actually invest in forprofit ventures. So the critics are saying hey, its not actually subject to irs rules about charity. They dont even have to give away a certain percentage of their assets every year. Glor on the subject of the irs there are Tax Advantages here . Yes, and nomplet i think it was interesting. Zuckerberg really did defend this position saying looking im not a tax dodger. And hes right. An llc whether it gives money to charity or he himself gives it to charity, there say tax deduction, there is also this talk about well, hes giving appreciated shares in facebook and he wont pay tax on that. Well, that would be the case with any of us did that with some a mutual fund that we owned. So it is not a tax dodge, hes right. There are Tax Advantages always to giving to charity. Glor whatever you think of it, it does seem to be a new trend in philanthropy, right . Certainly arounded Silicon Valley billionaire set because what seems to be happening is that they like this blended approach where there is some charity, but there is forprofit. And there is some lobbying arm here. The thing that is really interesting to me is that they want more account ability. They say they want to give their dollars and maximize those dollars and sth structure will do it. Glor jill, thanks very much. Thank you. Glor a pioneer of the american kitchen has passed away.
