Its about the most inaccessible spot that you can imagine on the face of the earth. In a sea of possibilities. Was it hijacked . Was there an emergency . A special edition of newsroom starts now. Good morning. Im carol costello. Thank you so much for joining me. Another day of disappointment in the search for that missing airliner, the cause, a motive, if there was one, still unknown. Its now been 14 days since the plane vanished and adding to the urgency, the dying batteries on the flight recorders. Just over 15 days from now the pings designed to help search crews locate them will start fading away. This morning crews were back out in the air and on the water scouring the remote area of the indian ocean for the object spotted on satellite images, unfortunately, they found nothing today. It is nighttime in australia now and theyre done searching from the air for the day. Cnns Andrew Stevens is in perth, australia, the hub of the crew. Andrew, the weather was good today. We were hoping
Kate bolduan in malaysia. Kate. Reporter good morning, everyone. Good morning, chris. Were coming to you live from kuala lumpur, about 3,000 miles north of where those planes are searching right now. The intrigue was sparked when australias Prime Minister suggested debris west of perth could be from the plane. Today he backtracked saying it may not have anything to do with the jetliner. Everyone involved offering healthy dose of caution. They are now saying crews need more equipment to locate data and voice recorders. As chris mentioned new york city luck so far for three of the search planes combing the indian ocean. Were Monitoring Progress of two others as we speak. For more on the latest developments lets go to perth, australia, where planes are rerng. Andrew stevens that the very late e latest there. Are you seeing any signs of progress . No progress. Just about an hour away from sundown. Waiting for the second of five flights to return. The first one got in an hour or so ago. The
Between the military and the nfl. What the secretary has done, given whats been going on inside the National Football league, is simply asked to better understand our interactions with the National Football league. Our expectations of organizations we work with, are the same we expect of ourselves. Today the white house unveiled a new initiative called its on us to educate young men about Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. Joe biden thanked one of his young staffers recruited to join the team. Cindy hogan, who nfl aint seen nothing yet. They have no idea what they just bought onto. All this as a new nbc news poll shows more than half of americans are now satisfied are not satisfied, excuse me, with how the nfl has handled the Domestic Violence scandal. Nbcs Anne Thompson is live in new york city where todays press conference will be held. Ann, what do you think were going to hear today . Looks like anns not reporter jonathan, a source in the nfl toelz me we can expect Roger Goodell,
What kind of punishment are we talking about . Because theyve had a personal conduct policy in place since 20007 that calls for action and being proactive for a lot of these things. But where they have really screwed up is the enforcement of that. Actually, being punitive. So, i think we need to see what steps theyre going to take in the future. Up to this point, the nfl is an organization that has, for the most part, been untouchable. What do you maked about the timing of him coming out to speak today, coming out right now to give a statement . Frankly, i dont think its any coincidence hes finally coming out of the woodwork that sponsors like anheuserbusch, visa, mcdonalds have come out saying theyre disappointed with the way its been handled. Sponsorship is the only thing that can move the needle on this and the nfl responds to. I think thats kind of encouraging because the thing that moves sponsorship money is public outrage and sustained public outrage. So we do have a say in this.
Exerting over north korea as they get closer and closer to proving theyre capable of launching a Nuclear Attack on another country, our best National Average leverage against them to try to stop them from doing that is basically just flatout using a show of force to show them visually, to effectively threaten to launch a Nuclear Attack against them. Thats our gambit with them now. So theres that. And that is unsettling. Also in syria, day five of this tenuous tentative sort of half ceasefire that was negotiated by us and russia. Russia so far is says letting humanitarian aid through to the crucial city of aleppo. Secretary of state john kerry threatened to that the whole deal, whole ceasefire might be off unless russia acts to let those medical supplies and food trucks go through to aleppo. Those trucks, all of the aid has been basically idling for days now waiting to get in, and everything hangs in the balance as to whether or not theyre going to be allowed to proceed. For perspective
