i talk with his former coach about the fire storm involving his book. and password please. should employers be able to snoop on your facebook page? this is "piers morgan tonight." good evening. we begin tonight with the big story. the absolute chaos aboard a jet blue flight today of a pilot's meltdown. the video was obtained by lizzie oleary. [ yelling ] >> absolutely extraordinary scenes there on this flight involving a captain shouting there's a bomb on board the plane. the ultimate nightmare for any passenger. it needed some heroes to try to bring him down. two are joining me now. two passengers who as the captain was screaming and pounding on the locked door of the cabin wrestled him to the ground and kept him there. real heroes. thanks for joining me. i know you haven't spoken about this until now. congratulations. thank you for the service you showed today and what you did. but this is everybody's nightmare. tell me the moment you realized what was happening. tell me what happened. what was going through your minds? >> the first moment that i think something really was critically wrong was there was an offduty pilot sitting a few rows behind and the flight attendants asked him to step into the cockpit. at that point, it was a sign that something was critically wrong. the captain's behavior was extremely erratic and progressively getting worse. so i think those were early indications that something was going horribly wrong with him. >> yeah. i mean, he seemed to just have completely lost control. and was just ranting and raving. this was supposed to be a man keeping calm, flying a plane as every other pilot would do. what do you think had happened to him? >> i really can't say what happened to him but i can tell you what i observed. i was sitting about seven rows behind the cockpit. i saw this person run down the aisle dressed as he was an employee of jet blue airlines. and the next thing you know he's pounding on the door screaming irrationally. it sounded like he was saying there was a bomb. he was talking about iraq. he was mumbling a lot of things. but clearly, my background is law enforcement. i was a sergeant with the nypd for 22 years. and now i'm not foreign to situations like this, but i don't expect them at 30,000 feet. after he started pounding on the door, he then -- it was like a stalemate at that moment. what to do. with the help of other passengers we were able to control the situation in a safe and harmonious manner where we took him down and forcibly controlled him on the ground. then were waiting for restraining equipment. unfortunately the equipment that they gave us failed. they gave us lock ties that were inferior quality. that further exacerbated the problem. if you don't have a person restrained properly, the likelihood of injury has escalated. that being said -- >> and it seems to me -- if i could just jump in. it seems to me incredibly fortuitous that you guys were all used to this situation and happened to be on the plane flying to a security convention. if you hadn't been, it could have been a very, very situation, couldn't it? >> yeah. i think something should be noted though. the copilot of the flight, he really, i think, is the hero here. because he had the sense to recognize that something was going horribly wrong. and he was able to persuade the captain out of the cockpit. thankfully we're here to be able to talk about it. yes, that's step one. step two, absolutely i think everybody's impulses kicked in as it escalated. i think myself and the four other guys that jumped on him all felt at the same time that this is -- enough is enough. we need to do something. we can't allow him to gain access back into the cockpit. >> what was your reaction of the -- sorry. i was going to ask you what was the reaction of other passengers who are not security trained? i would imagine there was just huge panic, wasn't it? >> that's an excellent question. there was, but in this situation fortunately the other members of the crew that were with me were able to quickly take instruction and we all worked like a team. and it was a team effort. it truly was. i mean, when we took him down, he was screaming about say your prayers, say your prayers. just clearly demonstrated the level that he was just not coherent and realizing what he was doing or saying. we isolated him. we contained him. we prevented other passengers from getting injured. and fortunately with the copilot's assistance and crew staff we were able to contain the situation until the plane safely landed. >> and tony, once the plane landed, what was the next move? >> well, we were physically on top of this guy for about 20 minutes while the plane was descending. four guys literally on top of this guy. he was about 6'3" or 6'4." once we landed we stayed on top of him until the authorities came on board. they strapped him further and put him on a stretcher and took him down the steps. >> we're actually watching pictures -- we're actually watching the pictures of that. him being stretchered off the plane with the crisis now averted. was there a moment when you guys were sitting on top of him, paul, when given his size and his crazed condition, did you fear he could break free and everyone's lives would be in serious danger? >> piers, absolutely. that was my main concern. because while we were restraining him, he was giving this illusion that he wasn't going to do anything. and i knew from history and my experience in dealing with emotionally disturbed people, they're just recharging their energy to have an outburst. and that's exactly what happened. just prior to landing the plane when -- you have to picture this. we're talking about a person that's about 6'3," 6'4," over 250 pounds, solid as a rock. and just a very controlled person that was bent on doing whatever he wanted to do. >> terrifying. >> he acted up. terrifying, absolutely. as the wheels were about to touch the tarmac, that's when he acted up again. he said emergency landing and tried to break free. fortunately again, because -- think about this. holding the person down for 15, 20 minutes in one position -- >> it's exhausting. >> it's exhausting. but again, we were able to do it. that's what it was all about. it was a great effort this afternoon. >> how did you both feel when -- i was going to say. there were no casualties thanks to you. when it was all over and he'd been stretchered away and you came off the plane, how were you feeling? physically exhausted, i would imagine emotionally exhausted. what were your feelings as you came off? >> you know, i have to say i think really just thankful. just thankful for the quick response and reaction and impulses by everybody involved from the copilot to paul and the other guys that jumped in. really just very, very thankful. this could have had a horrific outcome. very thankful. >> paul i would imagine there's two obvious questions. have you had any drink coupons from jet blue to say thank you yet? >> no. no drink coupons yet. >> if anyone from jet blue is watching, get these guys some coupons. secondly, i'd imagine your fees as potential speakers at the security convention may have just gone through the roof. and if they're not, i want to be your agent. >> well, i appreciate that, piers. >> thanks, piers. >> that's a very kind thought you have. and again, after retiring from the nypd, we have a company now we do private investigates in new york city. these are the things that we do. you know, we help people. and in this case fortunately it was a plane load and everybody was happy. and thankfully jet blue, the staff was there to help as well. or this could have really been a horrific situation. >> i mean, have you heard from anybody high up at the airline? >> no not as of yet. >> no. >> that seems rather remissive, jet blue. if anybody's watching, call these guys and thank them profusely. as far as i'm concerned you are american heroes today. you saved this plane probably from going down with the passengers on board with your courage on that flight. and i thank you and i think america thanks you. thank you for being on the show. i appreciate it. >> thanks for having us. >> piers, thank you for your kind words. >> well, thank you. it's been a pleasure talking to you. thank you very much. two extraordinary men there showing the kind of heroism that makes america what it is. coming up, the search for truth in the trayvon martin case. florida's attorney general weighs in on that and the battle over obama care. [ male announcer ] if you believe the mayan calendar, on december 21st, polar shifts will reverse the earth's gravitational pull and hurtle us all into space, which would render retirement planning unnecessary. but say the sun rises on december 22nd and you still need to retire, td ameritrade's investment consultants can help you build a plan that fits your life. we'll even throw in up to $600 when you open a new account or roll over an old 401(k). so who's in control now, mayans? trayvon was our son. but trayvon is your son. a lot of people can relate to our situation. and it breaks their heart just like it breaks mine. >> trayvon martin's mother speaking emotionally to congress today. joining me now the woman in the center of the two biggest stories in the day. the trayvon martin case and the debate over health care reform. pam bondy. welcome. let's start with the trayvon martin case. you saw his mother there. obviously very emotional. it's been an appalling few weeks for her. what do you make of the debate. not the issue of whether there was a racial element, but the issue of whether the stand your ground law in florida has been exposed through this case as deeply flawed. >> well, piers, first let me tell you. i've spoken to trayvon's parents. they are amazing, sweet, kind people. my heart goes out to them. i'm actually friends with their attorneys ben crump and darryl parks. they're wonderful lawyers representing them. what my -- i have no legal role as attorney general in the state of florida. that authority is left to the state attorneys. but what i did do is i discussed with the governor the appointment of angela corey, a special prosecutor in jacksonville who's well removed from the case. she's excellent. and the florida department ask now in the case. the reason i can't comment on stand your ground whether that applies here because there are too many unanswered questions. and, you know, that's why the family is rightfully upset. when you have an incident 17-year-old boy walking home with skittles and an iced tea and he's killed, you have to have answers, not questions. and that's what we need in our state. >> look, i am encouraged by what you're saying. it's good that a senior lawmaker in florida is saying all this, but in the end, i remain like many people absolutely bemused that somebody could shoot somebody in cold blood, an unarmed teenager. i think with your legal training and your legal background on what appears to be a very empathetic attitude towards this case, it might be quite powerful of the attorney general of florida to say publicly, you know what? this guy should be arrested. he should be interviewed under caution and he should, if necessary, face charges. but he should be at stage one of the legal process of being under arrest. >> well, what we've done is appoint a special prosecutor. and that's what she's doing. conducting a thorough investigation. we need to get trayvon's girlfriend to cooperate which i don't know if was happening previously. they may have had good reason for that. but she's cooperating now. and again, a thorough investigation is being done to ensure that justice is sought for that family. but you can't make an arrest until you interview all the witnesses, piers. nor do you want that to happen because a speedy trial could run. we don't want that to happen. all i can tell you is we have a great prosecutor on the case. we have great law enforcement agencies. the department of justice is looking at this. and i firmly believe as you do that we need to have justice for the death of this innocent young man who was walking home to watch a basketball game with skittles and an iced tea. >> well said. let's move on, pam bondi, that involves you today. you seem to be the center of everything today. this is the issue of health care in the supreme court. there's a sense from the legal experts this is not going barack obama's way. i would imagine you as a republican who's been outspoken about this would be keen to see it not go his way. what is your sense from the legal perspective of the way things are unfurling here? >> today the individual mandate was heard. and the justices -- eight of the justices asked compelling questions. i feel they were very encouraging questions for us. this is such an overreach by the federal government. and the two ways in which the federal government can legally do this is under the commerce clause meaning they can force us if they are participating commerce. here they're forcing every single american to purchase health insurance simply by being alive. by not participating in commerce. the second way, the other way to purchase it is under their taxing power. yet the president of the united states has said multiple times this is not a tax as well as his budget director just testified in front of congress several weeks ago saying this is not a tax. so in order for this mandate to be upheld, it would be the greatest stretch, the greatest overreach of federal authority in the history of our country. and that's why it's so much more than health care. piers, i firmly believe we need tremendous health care reform. but it has to be done in a constitutional way. and this isn't the way to do it. >> thank you very much, indeed. >> thank you, piers. it was great to talk to you. now back to the trayvon martin case. george zimmerman isn't talking about what happened that night. but his friend joe oliver is. he joins me tonight. obviously a very difficult time for george zimmerman, for friends of his like you, for his family. but not as difficult a time as it was clearly for trayvon martin's friends and family. what is your personal emotional reaction to what they're going through and if i can ask you a difficult question. if this was your son killed in these circumstances, would you not at least want to see an arrest and legal process to go through the truth of what happened? >> first of all, my heart goes out to the martin family. because i have an 18-year-old son. so i can't imagine what it was like to get that news. i know in the past i have had reason to fear for my own son's life. thankfully he's well now, but in this particular instance, i believe what has happened has from the very beginning been mischaracterized as a racial incident. and more information is coming out that is becoming public that is validating that for a lot of people. and on the other hand because this has not been the most forthcoming investigation. because we've only had half of the story that's out there and the reaction to it. i mean, we're seeing now the reaction when this information is coming out. the evidence is not -- >> hang on. i mean, joe. there are different pieces of information coming out. some are helpful to your friend. as yesterday information leaked from the police suggested that he had been attacked by trayvon martin. today we hear in other information leaked, i think to abc, that in fact trayvon martin -- you know -- if you -- the question i'm going to ask is this. what is the truth as george zimmerman sees it? why hasn't he said before what happened? why are we only hearing now this leaked information? abc has been reporting that apparently the police on the night wanted to charge him with manslaughter. george zimmerman has told the police before that he believes he was attacked. why are we only hearing all this stuff now? what do you really believe happened? >> well, i believe what george has told me happened. first and foremost. second of all, i don't understand why all this information has taken so long to come out myself. i've had experience with florida law enforcement as a journalist here in central florida in the past. as we saw with the casey anthony case, there was a preponderance of evidence released to the public to the extent she was convicted by the public before the trial started. if george zimmerman had been arrested, we would have seen more of this evidence come out. >> i mean, does he feel that -- when did you last speak to george? >> yesterday. >> does he feel it would have been easier now for him to have been arrested? >> i haven't spoken with him about that. i have spoken with his attorney that he's asked to help him with this, craig sonner, who he believes the best thing that might have happened would have been to arrest george to start that clock. so we could get that information out. and so that we could get the truth out. >> i mean, again, i suppose i come back to -- forget the racial part of this for a moment. let's concentrate on the law. the stand your ground law which has allowed somebody to shoot somebody at point blank range. forget the race element to this which may or may not be proven in time. but the fact somebody could shoot a 17-year-old boy who's armed with just a pack of skittles and not only be arrested, doesn't that to you say there's something wrong fundamentally with that law and it ought to be amended? >> if that was all that this story was, i agree with you 100%. if i didn't know george zimmerman, i'd be just as outraged as everyone else out there. because i'm very familiar with the history of the sanford police department and its racial relations. i've covered stories like this where white men have shot and killed a black teenager and claimed self-defense. in this particular instance, i believe that when all of the evidence comes out, this will clearly show this was a case of life or death for either trayvon or george. and sadly, for the martin family, it was trayvon that we lost. but we've also lost george too. i mean, he will never be the same man. he will never be the kind, giving, caring human being that we've always known and loved. i mean, he is so distraught about this. he has been diagnosed with ptsd, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression. he can't sleep. he can't eat. he cried for days after this happened. so, i mean, in my heart of hearts i know that a good man was trying to do the right thing and something horribly wrong happened. >> final question for you, joe. he was -- when he called the emergency services to report what he said was a suspicious person walking around, he was specifically told do not pursue him. and he decided to pursue him with a loaded firearm. with hindsight, that was clearly a catastrophic error of judgment on his part, wasn't it? >> and here's what the evidence is going to show. that's the story that had come out in the very beginning. just like the false story that george is a white male. which started all of this file storm in all of the protests. because of those fears and concerns that there was a white man that was going to get away with killing a black child. but as we've -- as this evidence have come out, we've learned that trayvon is a 6'2" tall young man. and that george zimmerman that i already knew is only 5'8" and weighs 170 pounds. not like the 250 pounds that was reported when he was arrested seven years ago for coming to the aid of a friend at that time as well. this is a case where as the information comes out, because it's taken so long to get out, too many people are going to see it as not credible. and the main reason why they're going to see it as not credible is because of the history of the sanford police department. >> well, joe. i appreciate you coming on. i hope we can talk again about this. it is important. keep emotions at a certain level and keep the facts at a higher level. thank you for joining me. >> thank you, piers. i just want to make it clear, absolutely clear, this was not a case of race or profiling. this was a case of a man whose neighborhood had been victimized be numerous crimes and he saw a suspicious individual. and he did what he thought was the right thing and it turned out horribly wrong. >> i mean, that may be so and the grand jury i'm sure will determine that. one thing's for sure, trayvon martin is ad here and there's a family grieving. but thank you for joining me. >> you're welcome. thank you. coming up, big trouble for obama care. i also wanted to weigh in on keeping america great. ♪ ♪ why do you whisper, green grass?

>> the cannibals are the tea party. i'm very specific in this group. led by senator jim demint of south carolina. they have -- they beat lisa mercowski in the primary. she then ran a campaign on a write in. unprecedented in american history. especially with a name like mercowski. you misspell it with a y instead of an i, the ballot is thrown out. she was able to demonstrate if you motivate them to come out, they can take back the center. and you can get a congress which will be functional. and -- >> let me ask you, arlen. you obviously jumped ship from the republicans to the democrats. and the democrats just reading lines from your book pretty well betrayed, i guess, what you thought they were going to do with you in terms of support. i understand why you would feel pretty peeved off with them all. but isn't the reality as harry truman said, if you want a friend in washington, get yourself a dog. isn't that the reality? >> piers, i'm not talking about the dogs. and i'm not talking about what happened to me. i'm talking about what happened to the country. you have the fringes of both parties haven't taken control. and you have gridlock. and you have the important issues of the government not being taken care of. now, what are we going to do about it? and we have an electorate which essentially doesn't vote. doesn't come out. the primary process on the republican nomination, for example has driven so far to the right they're off the boards. and i know what goes on behind the scenes. i've been in both caucuses, democrats and republicans. i know where the bodies were buried. and there is a way out. but people have to understand how washington works. and this book is a description of the problem and a solution as to where we go from here. >> well, where are these bodies buried? >> these bodies are buried in ended careers. bob bennett's body is at a washington law firm. >> let's talk -- >> go ahead. >> let's talk about the bodies that are still hanging on in there. you know, dangling maybe from the meat hooks. but what do you make of the republican race in terms of is it a done deal now for mitt romney, do you think? is it time for newt gingrich or ron paul or rick santorum to throw the towel in? >> i think it is plainly going to be romney's as the nominee. what those other fellas want to do is up to them. it's a free country. what i'm concerned about is what we do beyond the presidency. that is one office. you can't run america if you have a congress which is gridlocked. if you have a tea party where they run on a platform of no compromise. where you have people afraid to express themselves. listen. independence is a twin brother of integrity. and you don't have any independence in the congress today. there's not a moderate in the republican senate caucus. we had a terrible decision by the supreme court on -- allowed corporations and unions to have unlimited anonymous expenditures. the supreme court left a narrow avenue for congress to legislate on disclosure. if you're going to have these billionaires like sheldon ableson by south carolina for newt gingrich, at least let us know who's putting up the money. >> arlen, i can speak to you all night about this. >> let me finish this. >> okay. >> senators on one side of the aisle voted for cloture to move, neither on the other side of the aisle who had been moderates would advance the bill. and that's what has led to the turmoil in the election process and to the gridlock. >> well, i think the secret is get into the cannibals and take a few of them out for us. bury a few more bodies. >> well, if my ideas are followed, if enough people will read the book, if enough people will show indignation as the last electorate did -- >> all right. arlen, if the book lives up to the title, i reckon you've got a best seller on your hands. >> glad to be with you. thank you. coming up, the return of tiger woods. i'll take to his former coach hank haney. there's a winner again. how appropriate it comes at bay hill. >> back in the game at last. it was tiger woods winning this past weekend at the arnold palmer invitational. comes as hank haney releases his book. you've been getting flack for this book. what was the purpose in writing it? >> any time you're around greatness like i was for six years and you see it at close quarters, you're asked about it. i'm asked about tiger all the time everywhere i go. people want to know what was it like to work with tiger. what did you work on? what was he like as a golfer? you're asked about that, and i wanted to share it. and i knew that i'd catch some flack. but really came to the conclusion that these were my memories, too. they weren't just tiger's memories. i wanted to talk about them and share them. >> you talked to him 200 days a year. you stayed at his home 30 days a year. for six years. and as far as coach and player goes, it doesn't get much closer than that, does it? >> that's a lot of time to spend with players. of all the players i've worked with on tour, that's the most time i've ever spent with a player. >> wla did you think of it? what did you make of him as a man? >> very complex. very, very complex. he's an incredible champion. you know, he's different. but i expected that. when you see somebody that's as great as tiger woods, there's probably a reason for it. and you wouldn't expect him to be the same as everyone else. >> criticism you've been getting says that, look, the whole point of a relationship between a coach and a professional sportsman is very similar -- not in law but in ethics, if you like -- between that of a doctor and a patient. and that you have breached that by going public with a pretty intimate book about your relationship with tiger. how do you respond to that? >> well, i'm certainly not the first coach that's ever written a book. there's a long list of coaches that have written books. and i just felt -- like i said, the bottom line was that these weren't just his memories. he didn't have an exclusive on those memories. they were my memories too. i wanted to talk about my experiences. i wanted to talk about my observations. i wanted to talk about the greatness that is tiger woods and how i went about coaching him. i'm asked about it all the time. i wanted to write about it. >> rick smith who coached phil mickelson said of you book, i'd rather be broke and not have a penny to my name before i violate the code of player/teacher confidentiality. for all the guys who've committed their lives to teaching, this should be upsetting. what hank did is against our rules. what's your response to him? >> well, i mean, those rules are not written rules. those might be rules that rick and obviously some other people think are rules. but i wasn't bound by any agreement. i didn't violate any agreement. i feel very comfortable sharing my observations and my thoughts. i think the book is very professional. it's honest. it's fair. and it depicts exactly what happened during the six years that i was with tiger. >> i mean, in the book you reveal a number of text messages that you sent tiger woods. i wanted to read one to you in the context of what you said. you said i feel i've been a great friend to you. i don't feel i've gotten that in return. obviously writing this kind of book has angered tiger woods enormously. it's not the behavior of a friend to do that. did you just think, you know what? the guy let me down. he wasn't a proper friend to me. so i'm going to make money out of the intimate life in the way you have done? >> not in any way, shape were or form. the text you just read was the text i sent to tiger after resigning after six years with him. we had a great year together. he won 45% of his tournaments the last three years i worked with him. but i just felt like it was time to go. and my text there was -- really had to do with the fact that the rest of the texts said or the one prior to that said in all instances when i was asked about tiger woods, i always gave an answer that was in the best interest of tiger woods. and i didn't feel like that had happened in return. but, you know, by the same token, there wasn't any one thing that made me think it was time to go. it was just six years coaching a world class athlete and the most recognizable and scrutinized athlete probably in history was just a long time. it was just time for me to go. you know, i had a great time. it was the greatest opportunity a coach or teacher could have. i'm very thankful for it. >> let's take a short break. i want to come back and talk more about the controversy surrounding the book and also what your view was of the enormous global sex scandal that nearly ended tiger's career. golly! that is deep snow! can you get me out of it? of course. travelocity? that's amazing. but i'm still stuck. come on, man. dig it! [ female announcer ] travelocity. get great deals on all kinds of beach vacations. in what passes for common sense. used to be we socked money away and expected it to grow. then the world changed... and the common sense of retirement planning became anything but common. fortunately, td ameritrade's investment consultants can help you build a plan that fits your life. take control by opening a new account or rolling over an old 401(k) today, and we'll throw in up to $600. how's that for common sense? [ male announcer ] brake problems? stop in to meineke today for a free brake inspection and you'll say... my money. my choice. my meineke. i want to say to each of you simply and directly. i am deeply sorry for my irresponsible and selfish behavior i engaged in. >> tiger woods saying sorry. i'm back with hank haney, and his new book is all about the years working with the champion and yet any friend of tiger's as you were pretty well took over everything. could you quite believe what you were hearing when all these stories began to come out? >> no, i couldn't because the first, you know, inkling was mark steinberg, tiger's agent called me and said there was an carling out in "the national enquirer" enquirer", but it wasn't true, that everything was going to be okay. and then, you know, it was probably a week or so or two weeks after that that, you know, tiger hit the fire hydrant and then all of a sudden, everything started spilling out. obviously it was true and there was a lot more to follow. but i didn't know anything. steve williams' caddie didn't know anything and obviously tiger's wood at the time didn't know anything. >> i mean, if you had as his coach, is it your place to say anything to a champion athlete like tiger woods? would you have done if you had known? >> i don't think it would be my place as a coach, but it would be my place as a friend. i would have said something and i know steve williams would have said something too. >> given the way that tiger treated i guess both you, by what you said in your book and steve williams, he seems to have a cold side. which many sporting champions feel they need to have. do you feel he's changed at all since the scandal? >> you know, i think he's probably softened some. i felt the change. you know, after that. and like you said, i think the cold side is part of what makes up, you know, tiger is an incredible champion. never really, you know, judged him on that. i looked and i thought that all the things that make up tiger woods are what makes up him being a champion and those are things that i go at great length in detailing in the book, "the big miss." but it's part of the package as i call it and, i know that tiger is an incredible champion. you know, the likes of which i think the game of golf has never seen. >> from what you saw at the arnold palmer tournament that he just won, his first victory in three year from a technical point of view given you were so close to him technically for so long, is he back to his best? could he win the masters this year do you think? >> he's definitely striking the ball well. he finished first in greens and regulation for the years that i worked with tiger, that was a key statistic. he was always near the top in greens and regulation, so he's back up there again. i think he's 14th for the year, but he's right up there near the top. the great thing about bay hill to me was that his putting was good. he finished fourth in putting. that's a key statistic. every player that's when on the pga tour this year has finished top ten in putting and going to augusta that's the most important thing. tiger would have won five or six green jackets in a row if he would have fewer -- if he would have had fewer than 23 putts per hole. he'll be very difficult to beat. it fits his game, but it comes down to the putting. >> and you know, it's great to see tiger to win the masters again. been through a tough time. america loves a guy who makes a comeback like that. hank haney, thank you for being here. would you trade your facebook password for a job? tonight, only in america, somebody is watching you. or they could be. or rather they'd like to be. and you shouldn't let them i'm talk about the uproar over employers asking job applicants to hand over their facebook passwords. nobody thinks this is a good idea. users are outraged, facebook is outraged. even the federal government is outraged. listen to new york senator chuck schumer. >> it's unbelievable, but it's true. an employer shouldn't be allowed into the sacred domain of the things you share with your five best friends. >> my notion is this why stop at facebook passwords? next time one of the unemployed people asks you for a job, ask them for keys to their house, how about checking inside the garbage cans, even make a formal legal demand for the inside, and invade every aspect of their privacy. but here's the deal. i want to see your details first. fair is fair, right? you have stuff that you consider private. let's have a good look at that too. maybe you're changing your mind as you hear this. not such a cute idea suddenly is it all? all those personal see secrets, ironically you could defy yourself. facebook has become a global phenomenon, spreading breaking news, almost as it happens. and it's a wonderful social networking tool to hundreds of millions, but not a public forum for information unless the user wants it to be. everyone on facebook is entitled to the degree of privacy and that doesn't include letting a potential employer poke his or
