It was the end of an era, more than 4,000 jobs vanished, along with the mill itself. Theres a lot of people that never really emotionally recovered from that. I miss them days. Reporter like dan johnson. He worked at the mill over 30 years. So when he and his wife, vicki, heard donald trump say this were living through the greatest jobs theft in the history of the world. Reporter it resonated. I just felt like he was going to help us. Well, as long as hes done what he said he would do, like him, i would be very happy. Reporter already, they think theyve seen progress in the trump transition. The man hasnt even got in office yet, and hes already saved some jobs. Reporter that impressed you . That impressed me.

But as for the man himself you werent sure . No. Reporter are you more sure now . Im more sure now than i was a year ago. If it comes out that he has done or not done some things that he has said he hasnt or has, thats a cause for concern. We want to see something different.

We sing for japanese and the chinese reporter with a name founder simon tam says is a key part of the message. I was ridiculed as a kid for having slanted eyes. Now its im saying its something that i can be proud of. Its not something to be ashamed of. Reporter the Trademark Office denied the slants application saying its name disparages asian americans. At the supreme cout, tam said that violates his First Amendment rights. If the government truly cared about fighting racist messages, they would have canceled the registrations for numerous white supremacist groups before they even approached our case. Reporter the government has awarded trademarks to groups like the ku klux klan, as well as other bands that refer to race in their name, like nwa, and uncle kracker. Follow me, everything is all right reporter in court, some of the justices clearly were troubled. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg asked, does it not count at all that everyone knows that the slants is using this term not at all to disparage but simply to describe . But they also seemed concerned about a broad ruling. Justice elena kagan said since the government registers and publishing trademarks, that may give the government greater leeway to regulate them. For the slants, its the principle. Never gonna settle, never gonna settle, no reporter now, the case could have farreaching implications. The government, for example, has canceled the trademark of the washington redskins, saying that name is also disparaging. But, scott, that case on hold while the Court Considers the slants.

In our poll, 62 of americans are telling president obama well done. And at his final News Conference today, he told them dont worry. I believe in the american people. I believe that people are more good than bad. I believe tragic things happen. I think theres evil in the world, but i think that at the end of the day, if we work hard and if were true to those things in us that feel true and feel right, that the world gets a little better each time. It is true that behind closed doors i curse more than i do publicly. [ laughter ] and sometimes i get mad and frustrated, like everybody else does. But at my core, i think were going to be okay. When he first took office, mr. Obama said, i didnt come here for small steps. I came to provide sweeping change. Well, today, with eight years of experience, he said if were true to the things that feel right, the world gets a little bit better, and thats what this presidency has been about. President s always come to washington to change history, but history always changes them. Thats the overnight news for this thursday. For some of you the news continues. For others, check back with us a little bit later for the morning news, and be sure not to miss cbs this morning from the National Mall here in washington. Until then, im scott pelley. This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im michelle miller. President obama went before the White House Press corps for the final News Conference of his administration. He thanked the reporters saying having them in the building has made this place work better. President elect trump has mentioned that he might kick the press corps out of the white house. Margaret brennan asked the president about his controversial decision to commute the sentence of convicted leaker Chelsea Manning. First of all, lets be clear that Chelsea Manning has served a tough prison sentence. So the notion that the average person who was thinking about disclosing vital classified information would think that it goes unpunished, i dont think would get that impression from the sentence that Chelsea Manning has served. It was a busy day on capitol hill where confirmation hearings continued for president elect trumps confirmation hearings. The Armed Services committee voted 261 for james mattis. Two others did not have it so easy. Nancy cordes has more. Were a compassionate society. No, were not. Reporter democrats interrogated two of the nominees so intensely today, that one one of them briefly mistook the hearing room for a courtroom. Are you aware of those . Yes, your honor yes, senator. Reporter Oklahoma Attorney general scott pruitt was grilled about the 14 lawsuits he filed against the agency he now wants to lead, the epa. Do you acknowledge you presented a private oil companys position rather than a position developed by the people of oklahoma . Senator, with respect, i disagree. The efforts that i took as attorney general were representing the interests of the state of oklahoma. Earlier you said there was a concern. No, no, excuse me, im asking the questions. Reporter his hearing came on the same day that government scientists declared 2016 the hottest year on record. Do you agree that Global Warming is a hoax . I do not, senator. Reporter but he would not concede that man is primarily to blame. This paradigm that we live within today that if youre pro energy youre antienvironment, if youre pro environment youre antienergy is i think is a false narrative. Reporter at the other end of a crowded hallway, democrats were coming down hard on georgia congressman tom price. I am very frightened about what you are going to do. Reporter as secretary of health and human services, price would implement the gops currently unformed replacement for obamacare. I believe and look forward to working with you to make sure every single american has access to the highest quality care and coverage that is possible. Has access to does not mean that they are guaranteed health care. I have access to buying a 10 million home. I dont have the money to do that. Former president george h. W. Bush, as well as his wife barbara, are hospitalized this morning in houston. Omar villafranca has the latest. Reporter today, president bush offered the bushes his best wishes at his final press conference. They have been a constant source of friendship and support and good counsel for me and michelle over the years. They are as fine a couple as we know. Reporter just this past saturday, mr. Bush was treated for shortness of breath. Despite his health issues, the 92yearold has remained active. But one place he will not be is at the upcoming inauguration. He wrote a letter saying reporter president elect trump tweeted his thoughts saying reporter the former first lady will remain in the hospital for observation. Former president george bush will be at the inauguration. The slants tried to trademark their name, but the Trademark Office refused, saying the term is derogatory. Jan crawford spoke with the band about the controversy. Reporter the slants call their music chinatown dance rock. We sing for the japanese and the chinese reporter and it traveled the world, reaching out to asianamerican communities, even entertaining u. S. Troops over seas. But to the patent and Trademark Office, their name is racist. I decided to name a band called the slamts. Reporter 25yearold simon tan founded the band in 2006. The name was a key part of the bands message. We have an outdated, obscure racial slur that he want to turn into something powerful. I was ridiculed as a kid for having slanted eyes. Now im saying its something i can be proud of. To the Trademark Office, you were what . To the trademark, were racists. Reporter the government refused to give tam a trademark and argues nothing in the First Amendment requires congress to encourage the use of racial slurs. There are thousands of gross trademarks out there, and no one thinks the government is associating with or endorsing those vulgar, kind of gross, sometimes silly trademarks. Reporter First Amendment lawyer megan brown points to other bands that refer to race in their names whose trademarks have been approved. Like nwa and uncle cracker. Follow me, everything is all right as proof the governments definition of what may be offensive is inconsistent. Lots of people are uncomfortable with the government selectively and subjectively trying to make these judgment calls about what the Legal Standard is and who is going to be offended and how offended. Reporter the case could have far reaching implications. Using the same reasoning in 2014, the government canceled trademark protection for the washington redskins. Never going to settle, never going to settle reporter for tam and the slants, its now up to the Supreme Court. Im hoping that after wednesday, we can go back to being a band. Not the band thats fighting the Trademark Office, but the band who releases music and can communicate a positive message for their community. We sing from the heart reporter tam said if they lose here at the Supreme Court, the band is not going to change its name. But without a trademark, its almost impossible to get a record deal or even to protect the band from impostors. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Ok, lets try this.

Get move free ultra, and enjoy living well. At his only News Conference after the election, president elect donald trump refused to take a question from cnn. He pointed to the networks reporter and said you are fake news. Well, fake news is not new to the american political scene. Heres our Senior Correspondent ted koppel. Folks, ive been told this by highup folks, obama and hillary both smell like sulfur. Reporter theres nothing new about using media to commit political slander. 1796, an editorial accused Thomas Jefferson of cowardess, running away from the enemy. Our Founding Fathers could sling mud with the worst of them. Its not the nastiness thats new, its the delivery systems. A radio talk show host by the name alex jones can be heard nationwide spreading the manure that fertilizes conspiracy theories all over the internet. Pizzagate, as its called, is a rabbit hole that is horrifying to go down. Reporter the charge that Hillary Clinton and her campaign manager, john podesta, were running a child pornography ring out of the basement of a washington pizza restaurant did not, as best we can tell, originate with jones. The accuser remains anonymous. But that story had real consequences. 28yearold edgar welch, after driving from north carolina, entered the pizzaria entered the restaurant and fired shots. He told police he came to rescue child victims. Reporter for weeks, people have been accusing others of smuggling children from their bookstore, politics and prose, to the pizza restaurant. Are the threats over . No, theyre not. They continue online and on the phone. I really call it the weaponization of social media and the internet. What its entitling or enabling people to do is to take completely false information, make up whatever they want with no accountability. Reporter so what do you do . You call the police. The fbi. Turns out theres quite a high bar thats required f
