Percentage points. I like the way he recognized that there is a country out here. It consists from coast to coast, not coast and coast. Reporter around the corner at books on first, trump supporter steve huber said hes had it with the news media. I almost tune off the news anymore because its all about how hes behaving, not what hes really doing to help our country. Reporter but ken novak said the president seems too defensive, especially about russia. He tweets out that this is just a witch hunt. You know, why didnt he just come out and say okay, lets investigate it and be done with it . Reporter how do you react to talk of impeachment already . I think hes probably going to be impeached sooner or later. But the problem is that, you know, lets get to the facts first before we go that far. Reporter just about everyone we spoke to here agreed that the last few months have been a pretty bumpy ride for mr. Trump, scott, but as one local businessman put it, trump is not a politician and he doesnt operate like one. Dean reynolds, as we continue to listen to the voters. Dean, thank you very much. Well, mr. Trump leaves tomorrow on a trip that the white house describes as an attempt to unite major religions against radical islam. He will visit all the faiths of abraham islam in saudi arabia, judaism in israel, and christianity at the vatican. A senior white house official told us today that during the visit the saudis and other muslim countries will pledge to cut off funding for terrorism. Then mr. Trump will be off to brussels for a nato summit and sicily for the g7 economic summit. We asked Mark Phillips to tell us about the president s image overseas. I think that theres a sense of horrified fascination here in europe. Reporter fascination and fear, according to jonathan powell, who ran the british Prime Ministers Office during the tony blair years, and who knows about dealing with u. S. President s. When theyre preoccupied with political intrigue at home, he says, foreign leaders cant rely on them. If this is going to be the next two or three years, totally consumed with these issues in washington, unable to focus on international relations, that leaves a very serious vacuum. Reporter a vacuum theyre trying to avoid at nato, which President Trump will visit next week. Officials there are reportedly planning to put strict time limits on discussions about military spending and fighting terrorism so the president doesnt tune out. But if theres a sense of anxiety heres the first one. Reporter theres a sense of humor regarding the president too. Donald trump has long been the butt of jokes. Now satire shows find the material irresistible. What was the official reason for the shock dismissal of james comey . Because hes bad at his job. Hes so bad at his job that i am still the president. [ laughter ] reporter tv satire is one thing, but when Vladimir Putin starts dropping oneliners about you. Did you hear the one about how the president gave Russian Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov classified intelligence . Ill have to reprimand lavrov, putin joked this week, for not sharing those secrets with russian intelligence. Lavrov seemed to find it hilarious. Its how you tell em. What european leaders have historically wanted from u. S. President s is consistency and engagement. The fear being privately expressed by some officials here, scott, is that this president is embarking on his first foreign trip with his mind elsewhere. Mark phillips in our london newsroom. Mark, thank you. Roger ailes, the architect of the fox news channel, died today. Doctors say he had a brain hemorrhage after falling last week. Ailes was 77. Anna werner has more on the man who was once called the loudest voice in the room. Reporter roger ailes went from a 27yearold tv producer to successfully selling Richard Nixon to the American People in 1968. He helped elect Ronald Reagan and george h. W. Bush, too. By 1992 ailes had retired from politics and soured on the news media. As he told charlie rose then if you want to have tremendous political influence and still be a womanizer, drug abuser or alcoholic, you only have one choice of career, and thats journalism. Reporter but four years later ailes would become founder and ceo of the fox news channel. Caution. Reporter with conservative commentators like bill oreilly, why did viewers watch . He told rose in 2001 they think that perhaps points of view are being eliminated and some stories are being eliminated on other channels. And thats why were winning. Reporter h. W. Bush said ailes wasnt perfect but called him my friend. Fox host sean hannity called him a second father. But critics like dr. Jeffrey jones, director of journalisms peabody awards, said no one had done more harm to american democracy in the last generation. No, i mean, the stock markets very enthused. Reporter many believe fox news support for President Trump helped get him elected. In a 2014 autobiography, ailes is quoted in 2010 telling fox news executives, i want to elect the next president. But ailes reign would not make it to election day. Numerous women at fox news including former anchor Gretchen Carlson alleged he sexually harassed them. Facing a lawsuit, ailes resigned last july.

A texas mother cant bring herself to go to church because she would have to pass where her teenage son, jordan edwards, was killed by a Police Officer. Heres omar villafranca. Reporter jordans parents, charmaine and odell edwards, say one of the hardest things for them to do is explain to their 4yearold daughter that her big brother isnt coming home. I want to see jordan, mommy. And all i can tell her is youll see him again when you go to heaven. Reporter on april 29th, 15yearold jordan edwards, two friends and his two brothers were leaving a house party in suburban dallas when Balch SpringsPolice Officer roy oliver and his partner tried to get their car to stop. According to an arrest warrant, oliver shot multiple rounds from his patrol rifle as the vehicle drove past him. Jordan, sitting in the front passenger seat, was shot in the head and later died. His 16yearold brother vidal was the driver. Have you replayed that moment in your head . Every night. I cant even sleep. Reporter at first police said the teenagers car backed up aggressively toward the officers. But Balch Springs police chief Jonathan Haber later changed his tone after seeing the officers body cam video. On may 2nd the chief fired oliver. If the car was leaving the scene and wasnt posing a threat to anyone, why shoot . But you literally shooting like youre playing target practice. Thats how it in my mind its like he was hunting. Reporter oliver faces a murder charge. Charmaine and odell say the pain of jordans death is something they will have to live with forever. All i have is pictures now. Every day i look at the pictures. And i just wish i could see him. Reporter the family is pushing for major changes in police policy, scott, starting with having outside agencies investigate police shootings. Bob schieffer gets the last word on a president and what might have been. Scott, i interviewed john mccain the other night during a chaotic week, and he said, bob, we have seen this movie before. So im thinking, what if this movie had a slightly different plot . What if President Trump had taken Barack Obamas private advice to get general flynn to resign in the beginning . What if he had cut flynn loose after flynn told the trump team he was under federal investigation . What if he had gone on National Television and said, ive told fbi director comey to get to the bottom of this russia situation, no one wants to clear it up more than me because we have work to do . What if he ad joined republican and Democratic Leaders in praising the selection of robert pmueller as special counsel instead of calling it a witch hunt . But he didnt. So i dont know what answers the special counsel will find, but it brings me back to Something Else that john mccain said the other night. This has reached watergate size and scale. Thank you, bob. Thats the overnight news for this friday. For some of you the news continues. For others check back with us a little later for the morning news and cbs this morning. From the Jones Day Law Firm overlooking the u. S. Capitol, im scott pelley. This is the cbs overnight news. Hi, everyone, and welcome to the overnight news. Im demarco morgan. President trump departs for the first overseas trip of his administration, and hes leaving behind a political firestorm that includes a special counsel looking into his associates ties to the kremlin. The president calls it a witch hunt. Jeff pegues brings us up to date on the investigation. Reporter sources say individuals connected to the Trump Campaign may have been coordinating with the russians as far back as april 2016, seven months before the president ial election. A former u. S. Government official tells cbs news, you could see the hallmarks throughout, including conversations picked up by electronic intercepts. Some of the contacts appeared to be businessrelated or innocuous, but sources tell cbs news investigators also discovered multiple contacts that were cause for concern. The fbi is scrutinizing former Trump Campaign chairman paul manafort, Foreign Policy adviser carter page, and the former National Security adviser Michael Flynn. But it is unclear if there are other Trump Associates under investigation. Flynn joined the Trump Campaign in february of 2016. A threestar general, he had previously headed the Defense Intelligence agency but was fired by president obama. Flynn was elected as mr. Trumps National Security adviser shortly after the election. The u. S. Intelligence community became especially concerned during the transition that Sensitive Information being provided to the trump team could be passed on to the russians. Flynn was also fired by President Trump just 24 days into his term for lying to Vice President pence about his contacts with Russian Ambassador sergey kislyak. Former director of National IntelligenceJames Clapper said flynn changed after leaving the military. What do you think changed him . Was it that he was fired . I dont know. That could be. Im speculating. I really dont know whether he he just became angry about it. I dont know. But there was something changed . Well, it appeared to me, yes. The white house staff is reportedly in crisis mode, bracing for personnel changes that could see top aides shown the door. Margaret brennan has that story. There was no collusion, and everybody, even my enemies, have said there is no collusion. Reporter President Trump said the appointment of special Counsel Robert Mueller to probe Russian Election meddling is dividing the country. Well, i respect the move, but the entire thing has been a witch hunt and there is no collusion between certainly myself and my campaign, but i can always speak for myself and the russians. Zero. Reporter the president strongly denied interfering with the fbis investigation. Did you at any time urge former fbi director james comey in any way, shape, or form to close or to back down the investigation into Michael Flynn . And also as you look back no. No. Next question. Reporter and mr. Trump dismissed democrats claims that he may have obstructed justice. I think its totally ridiculous. Everybody thinks so. Reporter despite saying last week that he had decided to fire comey before he met with attorney general Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney general rod rosenstein, today the president said he acted in part on rosensteins recommendation. I also got a very, very strong recommendation, as you know, from the Deputy Attorney general, rod rosenstein. But when i made that decision, i actually thought it would be a bipartisan decision. Reporter but behind closed doors on capitol hill, rosenstein briefed senators on his version of events, including when he wrote a scathing memo about comeys conduct. Democrat claire mccaskill. He did acknowledge that he learned comey would be removed prior to him writing his memo. Reporter sources also say President Trump is so frustrated with the fallout from comeys firing that hes considering a shakeup of his senior staff. President trump still has a lot of staunch supporters in the heartland. Dean reynolds spoke to several of them in lee county, illinois. The rural area voted for trump in the election, while Hillary Clinton carried the state. Reporter at bill and dicks barbershop in dixon, illinois guy ball was getting a haircut and weighing the news of a special counsel investigating the Trump Campaign. Everybodys looking for something to dig at. Theyre looking its a witch hunt. Thats what he tweeted this morning. Reporter a lifelong republican, a trump supporter and an avid consumer of conservative media, ball blasted the president s critics. They keep saying the russians interfered in our election. How did they interfere . I mean, i never hear that talked about on tv. Reporter dixon sits astride the rock river, where Ronald Reagan was once a lifeguard. Its the seat of lee county, which donald trump won by 20 percentage points. I like the way he recognized that there is a country out here, it consists from coast to coast, not coast and coast. Reporter around the corner at books on first, trump supporter steve huber said hes had it with the news media. I almost tune off the news anymore because its all about how hes behaving, not what hes really doing to help our country. Reporter but ken novak says the president seems too defensive, especially about russia. He tweets out that this is just a witch hunt. You know, why didnt he just come out and say okay, lets investigate it and be done with it . Reporter how do you react to talk of impeachment already .

Reporter but as one local businessman put it, trump is not a politician and he doesnt operate like one. Fans of rock and roll are mourning the death of singer and songwriter Chris Cornell. The front man for soundgarden, audioslave, and other bands was found dead in a Detroit Hotel room. The coroner said he hanged himself. Cornell was on the nationwide tour with soundgarden and the band had just wrapped up a concert a few hours earlier. Anthony mason has more on cornells life and his music. Reporter Chris Cornell helped redefine the sound of rock and roll in the late 80s and early 90s. Show me the im down on my knees today reporter emerging from the seattle grunge scene as the front man of soundgarden, the singer was known for his octavesmashing vocal range. His talent spilled across a number of lineups over the years, including the supergroup temple of the dog. And a sevenyear run with former members of rage against the machine in audioslave. Exactly. Its exactly in the works. Reporter last month he told me he was working on a new soundgarden album. And how far away is the new soundgarden album, do you think . One of the things we did when we got back together was decide to never put a clock on what we do. Which i think has been really helpful and it just always being a positive experience.

Resolve carpet care with five times benefits after nearly a century and a half on the road the greatest show on earth is folding its tents for the last time. The final show of the ringling brothers barnum and bailey circus will take place this sunday at the nassau coliseum outside new york city. Lee cowan reports. Ladies and gentlemen children of all ages welcome to the greatest show on earth reporter it is a pretty bold claim. The greatest show on earth. But ringling brothers and Barnum Bailey had every reason to brag. There was a time when there really was nothing else like it. Ringling was controlled mayhem, a dizzying array of performers risking life and limb alongside a menagerie of exotic animals from faraway lands. Are you ready after 146 years all the thrills are still there. But the wonder seems to have faded. Ladies and gentlemen reporter ringlings ringmaster, jonathan lee iverson, laments that today when kids go looking for the greatest show on earth many look for it on their smartphones instead. More and more unfortunately were becoming a society that really doesnt embrace wonder anymore. Are you ready my friends . The wonder that we offer you cant find it on facebook. You cant find it on youtube. You have to engage. You have to be there. You have to be present. And it takes relating to others, not like yourself. Thats how this has been made. Reporter a fact of modern life that brought the mighty big top to its knees. Without a doubt it was the toughest business decision that weve made, and we made it together as a family. Reporter kenneth feld is ceo of Feld Entertainment. His dad irvin feld bought the circus from ringling brothers for 8 million in 1967. They were caretakers of a slice of americana and a home for a unique community whose desire to dazzle outweighed just about everything else. The love is for the institution, but the greater love is for the people that make up that institution. And thats the difficult part. Reporter feld grew up with sawdust in his veins, and so did his three daughters, lana, nicole, and juliet. They even performed with the ringling clowns on occasion. Did you ever get that itch to perform yourself . I went to circus camp for a little while. I was in a roller skating act where i lit a match on the floor with my teeth. Can you still do that . That is a good party trick. I dont know that i would want to try at this point. Reporter over the years the feld sisters tried to help their father infuse the circus with 21st century sensibility while still keeping the shows 19th Century Traditions intact. But it was a balancing act that in the end just didnt balance their bottom line. The economic model, it didnt work anymore. And we dont want to compromise what is the greatest show on earth. Its still really hard, and its emotional for sure. Reporter baraboo, wisconsin is where ringlings long run started. Their name is still everywhere here, as is the countrys largest circus museum, circus world. It was five ringling brothers. Al, alf, charles, john, and otto, who pitched their first tent in baraboo in 1884 and began carting their variety act in wagons all around the midwest. Eventually they were big enough to buy their biggest competitor, the Barnum Bailey circus, and the combined shows brought amusement right to main street usa. Its arrival was a heralded event. The circus train was more than a mile long. At each stop both man and beast alike would be unloaded and within hours a vacant lot was turned into a canvas city. How many people would the big top seat . 12,000. 12,000. Mmhmm. Really. Reporter howard pibbles was so blown away he spent much of his 81 years recreating that spectacle in miniature. How long did the big top take you to make . Took 18 years. You wanted to preserve what what id seen as a kid. Reporter his replica, now on display at the john and Mable Ringling museum of art in sarasota, covers half the length of a football field. Theres one door on anyway. Reporter he built more than 150 circus wagons, 59 train cars, ticket booths, concession stands, all by hand and all in exacting detail. Do you have any idea how much youve spent doing this . No. And nobody needs to know. Reporter his model captures the magic that the traveling circus held. A spell cast on anyone looking for adventure. Even after ringling ditched the big top in favor of the airconditioned comfort of arenas. You hear people talking all the time about running away and joining the circus. You guys actually we did. And thats i think one of the great like i dont know. We get to tell people that. And people go yeah oh, you did . You really did run away and join a circus. Reporter karen and greg desanto became part of the traveling troupe of clowns for ringling. They actually met at clown college. In fact, greg was a teacher there. He now runs the International Clown hall of fame in baraboo. Is it as romantic a life as it sounds . Definitely well, i think its more romantic now when you look back. Yeah. In hindsight, yes. But at the time it is. You know, its like a lifestyle. Reporter a lifestyle that took them through americas back yards. In their tiny home on the rails. Like you wouldnt fit in it. No. It was six feet long, three feet wide and about nine feet tall. So it was a closet with a door. Reporter size didnt matter, though. The melting pot that was the circus, language and customs all blended with a symphony of animals that traveled right along with them. Elephants were in the room right next to my first train car. The elephant car was the next one over. Id lay out and theyd open the windows and their trunks would come out. Id feed them. Id try to reach over and give them treats and theyd try to reach over too. Theres a baby tiger that used to live on our car. And it would run up and down the hallway. A baby bengal tiger. Yeah. Reporter the animals, especially those elephants, had always been ringlings biggest draw. But they were also its achilles heel. Animal rights advocates had long protested forcing wild animals to perform as entertainment. Feld spent years denying accusations of abuse and won more than 20 million in court settlements. Nevertheless, ringling packed in their famous pachyderms last year, and that says feld was the beginning of the end. When we made the decision to take the elephants off the road in may of 2016, we saw a drop in ticket sales and attendance way beyond what we anticipated. How much . It was substantial. Reporter without the circus Feld Entertainment still has plenty of entertaining to do. It brings us disney on ice and monster truck jam too, just to name a few. The circus lives in a lot of places besides the circus. Like in the mud. Exactly. Reporter there are of course other circuses, lots of them in fact. But there will never be another ringling. Do you know i was thinking the other day, man, youre going to be the last voice any of these circus fans will ever hear. Wow. You know, i mean, im holding on to that. I sort of believe like dr. Seuss, dont cry because its over, smile because it happened. Farewell from the greatest show on earth the cbs overnight news will be right back. Lilly.

Pranay, do i stand a chance of ever growing a mustache as full as yours . Probably not. Probably not. Reporter the ten finalists were eventually whittled down to just two. Pranay varada from texas and Thomas Wright from wisconsin. Reporter in the final round varada and wright matched each other answer for answer. St. Martin is correct. That means we move on to a tiebreaker. And it took a sudden death matchup to put varada over the top. What large mountain system that stretches more than 1,200 miles separates the taclamacan desert from the Tibetan Plateau . The correct answer is the kunlun mountains. So our champion is Pranay Varada from texas. Reporter for wright a second place finish was something to be proud of. I set the goal as a top three finisher this year. I accomplished the goal but of course i would have wanted to win. Was your heart racing . You seemed pretty calm. I was feeling pretty calm. I was more concerned about my hair, to be honest. Reporter varada finished just outside the final three last year. The day that you lost on this stage last year, did you study that day . Yeah.

Reporter cybersecurity experts tell us that Hollywood Studios like disney are attractive targets to hackers because consumers like us want a sneak peek of their Favorite Movie or a tv show. Its unclear right now whether the movie has been leaked online but hackers still have a week to make good on their threats. He took everything from me. Reporter as big screen pirates prepare to invade theaters later this month, disney is apparently dealing with reallife online pirates who claim theyve stolen their latest film and are holding it hostage. Disney ceo bob iger reportedly told staff monday the hackers are asking for ransom to be paid in the Digital Currency bitcoin. Its a tough call because there is so much money on the line. Especially when youre talking about disney. And the scale of some of their blockbusters. Reporter pirated movies and other hollywood cybercrimes are becoming more common and more sophisticated, leading companies to use cybersecurity consultants like himu nagam. We are in a climate that i would consider to be on steroids. Thats how active this community has gotten, both in the attacks that are coming and the defenses that people are trying to put up against them. Mr. Piscatella. Reporter just last month a hacker known as the Dark Overlord claimed to have stolen the fifth season of orange is the new black and released it online after netflix refused to pay a ransom. The company told cbs that a production vendor used by several major studios was compromised. In a tweet the Dark Overlord threatened fox, ifc, National Geographic, and abc, saying they could be next. I have a gift for you. Reporter just as they were preparing to release the film the interview back in 2014, Sony Pictures was also the target of a massive hack. Hackers leaked confidential data including personal information and emails of employees. Security experts say online thieves who pirate films put more than just movie studios at risk. No matter how excited you are about those movies, remember, the person releasing it is a hacker who wants access to peoples computers and information and your movie file could have ransomware built into it. Reporter disney declined to comment for this story, but reportedly they have refused to pay the hackers while they are working with fbi investigators. Now, this hack comes on the heels of a major cyberattack that affects hundreds of thousands of computer worldwide in 150 countries. Right now, though, there is no link between two attacks.
