And this is about to be the most popular gift under the tree this christmas. Could it be . Beyonce is crazy in love with it, so many more are too. Why is the selfie stick being called the greatest invention of the year. Is it about to change the way we snap those selfies . Let me take a selfie. Good morning, america. I want my kids to know this right away, they are not getting a selfie stick. Not going to happen. Laras got one right there. Very fun. I like it. Hold on. Let me try to adjust. Okay. Looking good. This is a first. In all my years at good morning america, doing a selfie to begin the show. Its a big shopping day tomorrow, Super Saturday. Some may be looking for it. The question is are they able to get to the stores . Millions of americans getting ready to travel. Snow and rain could make it hard to get home for the holiday. Instead of a white christmas, i promise a wet and windy christmas for so many people. Well, thats going to be the issue. Watching a developing storm, monday, tuesday, in the great lakes. It tightens up. These are isobars, lines of equal pressure, the closer, the windier. Its along the i94 corridor. Could be cold enough for snow. Cleveland into Christmas Day, buffalo, the hot spots. West michigan. That could be the snow. Doesnt look so snowy for a lot of people. Lay it out here. On thursday, blowing snow back in parts of the Northern Plains because they will have had snow. But its the developing storm thats about a week away that will well be having our eyes on and certainly going to give you a wet and windy christmas instead of a white one. I can promise that. And that storm is going to really cause a lot of problems, as you know, ginger. Its going to wreak havoc on air travel. Millions of americans heading to the airport to begin their holiday. And david kerley is at Reagan National airport. Good morning. Reporter hey, robin. This is the busiest travel day of the Holiday Season, and americans are trying to get away early, a week before christmas. Its started this morning. I was just inside. There are lines at security. A lot of folks with their families coming in getting ready to fly. Over this day, a friday, at least 2 million, could be as many as 2. 5 million americans are going to fly. The busiest, atlanta and chicago. And weather is always a concern. It can quickly cause cancellations and delays. Now if there was some good news with ginger talking about the coming storm in the middle of the week, Christmas Eve is the lightest travel day as far as aircraft go. So thats the good news. If youre going to hit the roads, as ginger said, there could be some really sloppy conditions out there in the middle of the week. And a lot of americans are going to be driving because gas prices are so low. Robin and george. That is helping a lot of folks. Thank you. Move on to the latest on the sony hacking scandal. The government expected to blame north korea for the destructive attack today as we learn more about the evidence building up to make the case. Pierre thomas is tracking the investigation. Good morning. Reporter good morning, george. There was an attempt by the hackers to cover their trail. But today sources tell us the u. S. Has evidence pointing to north korea. Abc news learned that investigators found two critical pieces of evidence linking north korea to the attack. They discovered the assault had specific signatures of a North Koreanstyle hack. And they found the hack was identical to a series of attacks targeting south korean banks and other institutions last year. The u. S. Government is certain that those attacks were carried on on behalf of north korea. Intelligence officials believe the assault was unprecedented. An extraordinary act of aggression. Its being used as a weapon. Reporter sources familiar with the investigation tell ugh the electronic assault from north korea was routed through a number of infected computers overseas. Singapore, tailand, tlaet, bolivia, poland and cypress. The president considers it to be a Serious National Security matter. Its being treated as such. Reporter to cloud the trail, they had a group outside the country to launch the attack. Likely part of the elite north korean spy unit bureau 121, tasked with an army of cyber wear years. Recruited as children and trained at this military school. It included this threat to american movie goers. Remember the 11th of september 2001. All apparently because the North Koreans are angry about a movie depicting the assassination of their leader. So the big question, whats the u. S. Government going to do about it . There is a precedent here. When those chinese hackers were active earlier this year, the u. S. Government moved to indict them. Yes, they charged chinese leaders for hacking American Companies theyre considering the same thing in this case, but not there yet. A lot of people upset about this. Including George Clooney who lashed out overnight, calling it terrorism. And blaming hollywood for backing down. And tom llamas has that side of the story. Reporter good morning. Remember, clooneys emails were hacked as well. They were leaked. And since the interview is the film no one will see, clooney said hollywoods most powerful should stand together, instead he says theyre hiding in fear. George, look right here. Reporter in an exclusive interview on deadline. Com overnight, George Clooney slams the press for the coverage of the hacking scandal and accuses insiders of leaving soen you out to dry. Last week he circulated a petition to other power players asking them to stand with sony, but couldnt get one person to sign on. Clany tells deadline, this is where we are right now. How scared this industry has been made. He goes on to say we cannot be told we can not see something by kim jongun of all exme tifl people. We have allowed north korea to dictate content. That is insane. I think a lot of actors and directors and producers are frustrated that north korea convinced sony not to release this movie. To want kill kim jongun . Totally. Reporter he says that with just a bit of work you could have found that it wasnt just probably north korea, it was north korea. Its going to take a really long time for the wounds to heal and for them to move forward. They have been devastated in the last two weeks before the leaks. Reporter its not getting easier for sony. They are putting their popular studio tours on hiatus. They wont say its because of the cyber attack. And the big question moving closer to christmas, what else is coming . The hackers promised a christmas surprise. But sonys pulled the picture that led to this, its unclear if the hackers are satisfied. Wait and see. We will. And white house as well, jon karl at the white house. President obama set to have the year end news conference. And theyre wrestling with whether to call it an act of terrorism and war. Reporter will the president call this an act of terrorism, and what will he do about it . As you heard, the white house said this is a Serious National Security matter. They have vowed a proportional response. The fear here is that this could be the dawn of a new cyber threat that is farreaching, and many other countries besides north korea have this kind of capability. Theres a need to Deter North Korea from doing anything further, make them pay a price. And deter other countries that want to do the same thing. Our tools are limited. Reporter they are. And yesterday the white house raised the possibility that the response would be a covert response. White House Press Secretary josh ernest said the white house may not be able to reveal exactly what they are doing in response. There are very limited options. Thanks very much. Now were going to have a lot more sunday on this week. Now to amy with the other top stori stories. Good morning. Wall street gets back to work this morning after its best day in three years.

And a close call in houston as a tire flew off a truck and went crashing through this medical clinic. Look at that. A direct hit on the janitor working inside. The tire smashing through the window, taking out the chairs. Fortunately the chairs actually cushioned the blow, the sgran janitor only suffered cuts and bruises. And finally this is going to get you into the holiday spirit. Cheryl was working the Cash Register in houston, just another day at the drive through, or so she thought. Until a woman named nadine pulled up in a beautiful mink coat. She said that is such a beautiful coat. Nadine was so touched, she took the coat off and handed it to her through the drive through window, saying, its yours. That coat, worth 10,000. An act of kindness this time of year thats priceless. And her coworkers said that when she got the coat, she screamed like she had just won a Million Dollars. It was such a nice gesture. That was the best money she could have spent, making someone elses day. I like how she started. This feels real nice. Try not to get it in the fryer. Good point. Thanks for sharing that. And the latest on the Boston Marathon bomber. In court on thursday, seen here wearing the orange jump suit. This is likely the final hearing. And brian ross has been tracking the case since the first terrifying minutes.

He was severely injure when had police found him hiding in a dry dock boat. He is moving. We have movement in the boat. He sat up. Reporter his older brother, tamerlan, had been killed earlier that day in a shootout with police. In Court Thursday in boston, tsarnaev with a bushy head of hair appeared completely recovered from his injuries. At least 14 of the bombing victims came to court, encountering outside a small group of tsarnaev supporters. Mark walked away from them in disgust. Get a life, lady. Get a life. Reporter tsarnaevs lawyers claim he cant get a fair trial in a city where the memories of the bombing are so raw. It could take a month to pick a jury, and they have asked for 1200 potential jurors to be available. Any thought to move it outside of boston . They have asked for it once, and again yesterday. But the judge says the trial will be held in boston and scheduled to begin on january 5th. Thanks very much. Time is now running out on the Holiday Shopping season.

Looking for something better. Especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. I was taking warfarin, but wondered if i kept digging, could i come up with something better. My doctor told me about eliquis. For three Important Reasons. One, in a clinical trial, eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. Two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. And three, unlike warfarin, theres no routine blood testing. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Those three Important Reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. Ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you. Up to 27 more brush movements.

And why time is calling it one of the best inventions of the year and so many people are giving it as a gift this Holiday Season. I wish i had thought of it. Put your camera on a stick. Like the invention. That is coming up. The news from amy. We begin with breaking news about the massive cyber attack against sony. Abc news learning government investigators found two pieces of evidence allegedly linking north korea to the attack. Today the Justice Department is expected to announce the attack has specific signatures of a North Koreanstyle hack and is identical to previous attacks against targets in south korea. It was routed through infected computers in six foreign countries. And George Clooney is acc e accusing hollywood insiders of hanging sony out to dry. They canceled the interview because of threats. He asked others to stand in sol dare toy release the film. But nobody would sign the petition. He accuses the industry of running scared. And accusations that fema is not prepared for the next Natural Disaster or crisis. An audit says it lacks adequate Emergency Shelter and emergency help during a catastrophe or terror attack.

Good thing he was wearing his helmet. Everyone is okay. And finally, if youve sat through one too many awkward Holiday Family dinners, then take a look at this. A pet food company got 13 dogs and one cat together at a holiday table to enjoy a big feast. Humans supplying the hands to eat with. Not everything went according to plan. It was for a good cause. Many of these pets were rescued by the humane society, and the ad is raising the awareness of pet adoption. And highlighting that dogs and cats can sit together and be part of your family. Keep the alcohol away from your pets. Might not be a good idea. The human hands, thats what i think. So wrong. We have a Health Warning now for the millions of americans that suffer from severe allergies or asthma. One in six people are using epipens correctly, and fewer with asthma using the inhalers the wrong way. This is an eye opener. How are they getting it wrong .

This is for people who have lifethreatening food allergies, bee stings. Grip it in your palm, and swing it down into your thigh. Youll hear the click. But you have to leave it in place for ten seconds so the medicine comes through. People put it there, hurts, comes out. So ten seconds to get the medicine in. There are tips on how to properly use an asthma inhaler as well. Millions of people use this with a spacer or without. The key thing here is, before you breathe in, you have to breathe out. Empty your lungs fully of the air. So when you release the medicine, it goes deeply into your lungs. Completely empty. As much as you can. And open your airways. Next time you go to the doctor, demonstrate how youre using them, and they can correct your behavior. Ill be answering your questions all morning on twitter. Thanks, rich. Thanks very much.

And what youre about to see, this years miss world from south africa is the last one to have to wear a bikini on stage. That is right. This is the bikini ban heard around the world. For the first time in 63 years, the miss world pageant will no longer feature swim suit as part of the organization. I dont care if someone has a bottom two inches bigger than someone elses, we are not looking at that. We are listening to her speak. They want to focus on beauty with a purpose. I like that. Amen. Thank you. Really, really great. Also in pop news. We have an update on obie who made headlines two years ago when he was rescued. Do you remember, george . Obie weighed in at a startling 77 pounds. And now today, proud to say that is obie who has shed more than 50. The dachshund is now a hot dog truly. Look. So hot that obie has his own calendar this year, showing him in various shots. Obiedog. Com. The secret is getting him off of human food, two meals a day and lots of exercise. Aside from the human food, we need that. But smaller meals. It wasnt him feeding himself. No. It wasnt obies fault. No. Im glad everythings working out. Hes doing just fine. Control problems. Yes. And dog food really is good for dogs. It is better. Moral of the story. And finally in pop news. A little real estate. Theres a reason im playing the theme of one of my favorite cartoons of all time. The home of dick clark in malibu just sold, and pictures of it made me wonder with the late, great producer might have had something to do with the success of the flintstones cartoon. Certainly inspired by it. Check this out. A very distinct similarity to fred and wilmas home with modern updates. He wanted to appease conservationists who didnt want him building on the edge of a National Park overlooking the mountain. Its blended into the rocky mountains. The views are said to be unrivalled. It was on the market for 3. 25, it went for 1. 777. Which guarantees that the new owners are saying ya baa da baa doo. Its one bathroom. Unrivalled use. More bathrooms, maybe not. You have a quarry i thought it was an interesting juxtaposition of dick clark and the style of the home. Thank you. I thought i would share that with you. I love the interior design. Yes, you do. And that is pop news checking out. Heat index coming up, go to ginger with the weather. And good morning to all our what birthday is this for you . 18 birthday. Keep that hat on girl, youll need it. How about we warm up and look at something someone sent me this morning. I dont know if that was to make me jealous. This is port reek puerto rico. Come for a visit. We have heavy rains along the gulf coast that move through the southeast and into the northwest along coastal oregon, too. Christmas eve and chris may day time period we are worried about the wind driven rain. Its not going to be pretty. Reporter thanks, ginger, david murphy here with accuweather. We have a fair amount of cloud cover around this morning and temperatures in the 30s. The exclusive accuweather sevenday forecast brisk and chilly this afternoon, not as breezy always yesterday, but high of 41. Tomorrow not as much wind mix of clouds and sun, 39. Winter arriving sunday in the evening. Monday rain, wind and rainy Christmas Eve. We dry out Christmas Day. Giving me current temperatures. Isnt that nice . They have been out there since the wee hours of the morning. Cant wait to see them. And the gma heat index, and the beauty experiment. A blogger sending a makeup free picture of herself to beauty editors asking them to make her beautiful. The results might surprise you. Heres abcs juju chang. Reporter its the social experiment turning heads. Looking to see how Different Countries define beauty. The layout that i gave the editors was make me beautiful. That was kind of the tag line of the whole experiment. Reporter 23yearold marie sent this photo of herself with no makeup, no clothes, to editors in 21 countries, asking them to use photo shop to make her beautiful. What did you think would happen . That they would slim me down and make a very obviously airbrushed miniature version of me. Reporter earlier this morning, she tried a similar experiment. I wanted to see how the cultural concept might edit it. Reporter marie is considered plus size. Shepteds to see if they would air brush away the weight. They changed her bone structure, her weight. He was quite slender. Reporter were you afraid of what was going to come back with you . I wasnt. The biggest point was to see and prove that peoples perceptions of beauty was individual, not just one norm. Reporter canada, a new hair doe. Jamaica, a tan. Her favorite, italy, who glammed her up with photo shopped makeup. Few changed the shape of her body. Reporter i was surprised that only three out of 21 altered my weight and bone structure. That was nice to see. Reporter not bad for an online simulation to change the way we look at ourselves. Slowly but surely the message is getting across that peoples Natural Beauty should be celebrated. Reporter hoping this inspires women of all cultures to love their look no matter what. Through these images, beauty isnt definable. It varies so much from nation to nation and person to person. Reporter for good morning america, juju chang, abc news, new york. And i agree with what you said. Beautiful. Just absolutely just the way she was. It was an interesting idea, though. Encouraging that so few changed her basic structure. Getting there. Slowly but surely. A lot of people calling 2014 the year of the selfie. So no surprise that one of the hottest gift this is Holiday Season is the selfie stick. We have been trying it out all morning. And linsey davis has the details. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Narcissistic . Maybe. Nifty . Definitely. Its advertised as taking the perfect selfie or selfwe. The group shot you dont have to ask someone else to take. And to help out an increasingly selfabsorbed culture. And the song, the flattering filters, and for some, theres Plastic Surgery all for the sake of the selfie. My darn chin just bugs the living daylights out of me. We are a narcissistic society. We are obsessed with ourselves and documenting our lives. Reporter lets face it, 2014 was the year of the selfie. But 2015 is all about the selfwe. The novelty industry now making it even easier to take picture was yourself and your loved ones with one of the hottest gift this is Holiday Season, a selfie stick. You can get your friends and family in the photo. We have had a lot of people buy them for stocking stuffers. Just for secret santas. Reporter in just the last month, the company, selfie on a stick, saw sales increase a whopping 3,000 . Time magazine heralding it as one of the best inventions of 2014. Now we have our entire lives on our cell phones. Do you want to hand your cell phone to a stranger . Reporter do you love it . Love it. Its essential for us. Reporter the gadget lets you snap away from far away. You can get the background, all of times square. All you do is clip the camera to the end of the stick, set the timer or use the remote, and voila. You can use it for video. Here we are in what has got to be the selfie stick capital of the world. Times square. Three, two, one. For those who are ready for their closeup, but just dont want it so close up. Some describe it as a Better Vantage Point than the human arm allows. Which makes sense. This little apparatus extends to three feet in just seconds to give you depth and distance. Which you want in a selfie. Up high, right . Always up high. Thats key to not get the up the nostril shot. Is there a lighting kit . Thats what we need. I was going to take a group shot, but the battery just died. Thats just too bad. Darn it, no more selfies. For today. Next up in the gma heat index, the cost for a big spread could rise quickly. How to get a fantastic holiday feast without breaking the bank. The holidays mean family, friends and, of course, ravishing dinner parties. But in order to keep that Christmas Tree stocked, we need to keep the dinner party for ten under 40 bucks. This looks amazing. For under 40 bucks. You would think its over a hundred. Reporter janette planned the meal. Creamy sweet potato soup, green bean casserole, slowroasted pork shoulder, wine and chocolate milk. All for less than 5 a person. Its because of this book. Thats the bible. Reporter build your menu on whats on sale. And dont be afraid to take a trip for the big savings. This is a 6 pounds roast, paid 18, but you paid 7. Its worth it to drive if the sale on meat is great. Reporter find coupons that match the ads. This could double or triple savings. Crescent roles. These would have been 6. 38. And they were on ad, two for four. I had 40 cents off, 3. 60. Reporter and easy. Soup your not salad, cooking this creamy concoction, way easier. I got it down from 9. 87 to 654. Reporter thats 50 cents a serving. For soup. Reporter one dinner party dont, dont overbuy. Cook whats necessary. And no party is complete without with the libations. You put them in wine detanners reporter turns ar 2. 50 into a 50. It makes the ordinary dinner look like a fivestar meal. Put the things on there, makes it look expensive. Reporter i could imagine someone sitting down and thinking, wow. For good morning america, becky worley, abc news, oakland, california. 5 a person. Thats incredible.

Member, john wayne walk, flat top, frintstone prorn proportions, and the evil twinkle in his eye that says civil rights violations. He joins us right now. The hair is still working there. I got a little 49 i run a studio right now with the coen brothers. Were doing hail ceasar. This is not a personal choice. You came up with the flat top. I did. He sent me a picture early on. He had a jack lord kind of idea. And i didnt like it. We saw a flat top and watched the right stuff. It seems to work. It seems to be appropriate against joaquins mutton chops. He was here. How was that . It was really fun. How was that . He confessed that he was not telling the truth on letterman when he said he was engaged. He ever on the level . I dont know. I went to a dinner after that and i said congratulations because i bought into the whole thing. I gave him a big hug and found out if wasnt true. I feel as duped as you do. He had a hard time describing the movie. I get it. Have you described the movie . You know, it kind of washes over you. Literally, its like sitting down and taking a massive bong hit and watching chinatown. Like good luck. So after doing the movie did you do a massive bong hit and watch chinatown. I dont take bong hits. But if you do see it wheres the camera . Take a massive bong hit and see the movie. If you allow yourself to let it go and see an amazing am mull gags of scenes and characters. It could take a year to figure out. Look when the big lebowski came out, it wasnt a great success. Spawned all kinds of ph. D. Exactly. I want to and you since youre here today. George clooney, speaking out overnight about the whole sony hacking incident. Caused a lot of debate in hollywood. What do you think about it all . Because its new, everybody wants to speak out because they want to sound like they know what theyre talking about. Its new to me. To everyone. To everyone. Its orwellian to me. They were going to release it here, but not overseas. If wear not releasing the movie, are we commed by their government . You make a decision and have to live that out. Whats the consequence of that decision going to be . We dont know the answer. Very unnerving. One of the best ideas i saw, find a way to have it played over there. Played over in north korea . Its hilarious over there. Its a huge hit over there. Those are the only people watching it. They love it. With or without bong hits. With or without. Thanks for coming back. Good to see you.
