hobbled no longer, the hubble has been producing breathtaking images ever since. looking across both distance and time. to show us the universe as it was billions of years ago. not the time is standing still, they plan to launch success or telescope in 12018. this one named for former nasa administrator james webb. with a far-larger mirror divided positioned much further out in space, the james webb space telescope promises our best view yet of the greatest show not on earth. >> osgood: a tribute, next. thousands of people came out today to run the race for retirement. so we asked them... are you completely prepared for retirement? okay, mostly prepared? could you save 1% more of your income? it doesn't sound like much, but saving an additional 1% now, could make a big difference over time. i'm going to be even better about saving. you can do it, it helps in the long run. prudential >> osgood: as you know "purple rain" is a huge hit for prince. so to remember him "the new yorker" features purple rain on this week's cover. the questions remain about his death. no doubt that his was a life of we have an appreciation from bill flanagan. >> this has been a tough year for music legends, but the death of prince this past week is especially painful because it was so unexpected. he appeared eternally young and vital. made music as a pace and standard of excellence that very few artists have or could ever match. the first time i saw prince perform was at a nightclub across from pen way park in boston on st. patrick's day, 1981. i was a big fan of his album "dirty mind" but nothing live. this was at a time when racial tensions were high in boston, but that night in that bar, irish guys from southie and black kids from roxbury and gays and straights and latinos were all united in the prince army. his big radio break through came a couple of years later with "1999" and "little red corvette." a year or so after that "purple rain" made him a household name. then the deluge, great record "raspberry beret"," "kiss." he was so prolific that he gave away songs any other artist would have kept for himself. in the '50s and '60s rock and roll meant the mixture of black and white music. but the time prince came along radio had resegregated the play lists, the new rule said that rock was white and black music was called r&b or funx or disco. prince was a one-man rainbow coalition. he sang sweet soul ballads like smokey robinson. he laid down the funx like george clinton, he rocked like the rolling stones and he shredded on the guitar like prince transcended radio's 'par advertise like a musical mandela. i met him five or six times but he was always pretty reserved. i never felt like i got to know him except through his music. his music was enough. the only limit i ever saw in prince was that he was so talented, so shockingly self contained that he did not leave much space for the audience to effect his performance. he did not seem to need the crowd. auto few years ago that changed. the last three or four times i saw prince in concert he was playing off the fans, reacting to them, letting them into the music, too. there was a joy radiating from prince in those performance, is that was new. his playing was no longer guarded. prince was doing what his songs had done all along. he was making room for everyone. >> well, why not? talk show host larry will born. >> osgood: money changes everything, even itself. the treasury department this past week announced that andrew jackson's face on the front of the $20 bill will be replaced by that of escaped slave turned abolitionist harriet tubman. it's a mile post. our currency has stayed current. consider the cash no longer being printed but good as gold legal tender. the $500 bill. that's president william mckinley staring back at you. grover cleveland. he graces the $1,000 bill. james madison is the answer to who is on the $5,000 bill. does the name salmon chase ring a bell? he's on the $10,000 bill. maybe it was because he was the 6th chief justice or more likely because he was secretary of the treasury under abraham lincoln. last, but far from least, there's the $100,000 bill. take a minute to dig one out of your purse or wallet. recognize that face? president woodrow wilson. it's the largest note ever printed by the united states, used solely by federal reserve make 10 million of them. >> osgood: look whose talking about his upcoming performness at the white house correspondents' dinner in washington, it's larry wilmore, personal take on our times. as jim axelrod will now show us. >> what happened to you? when you were sworn in you looked like the guy from the old spice commercial. now you look like lewis gossett, senior. >> hosting the white house correspondents' dinner is one of the highest profile, highest risk gigs in all of stand up. it's. >> heard to be funny with the president of the united states looking at you. somehow day in and day out joe biden manages to do it. >> the comedian in chief they will be hailing this year, larry wilmore. that can be a scary night. >> oh, it absolutely is a scary night. not can't be, it definitely will be a scary night. because no matter how you slice it, the president is sitting right next to you. >> it's been 15 months since wilmore premiered ""the nightly show" on comedy central. >> he's applied a unique top spin to cut through. >> it's easy so say, black people, why aren't you acting like the countess when a cop pulls you over? >> it's crowded space, this late night comedy thing. what's your part of the curve? >> well, the thing that we felt we had the permission to talk about more than anybody when we started was all the racial problems that were going on in the country. we don't have lot of time to waste. last saturday a white cop killed a black man killed walter scott. we joked, all the good-bad racial stuff already happened there's nothing else to cover. surprise, something happened. i'm talking of course about the oscar nominations or lack thereof. people say, why do you got to talk about race, blah, blah? well, why not? of our day and of our time. i'll stop talking about race people stop being racist. >> certainly familiar turf with his 54-year-old native of southern california. after breaking into tv in the '80s. >> you wouldn't do anything that could get you -- >> his behind the camera work. as writer and co-creator of "the bernie mac show." and the hit sitcom "blackish" gave him wide berth to comment on race in america. >> sometimes i feel like a bit of an oddity. >> if you look to your left you'll see the mythical and majestic black family out of their natural habitat and yet still thriving. >> larry wilmore! >> and in his work as "senior black correspondent" on "the daily show" and the formula all >> before we get too deep i need to be clear about something. i voted for obama because he's black. is he still black? yes, then he's doing okay. >> the white people get that? >> i don't think so. it's funny when people try to throw that back. well, how dare you? but you've been voting for a white man, that's been the choice all the time, you know. fine lee when a brother comes in, i can't vote for the brother? >> may not get anything done in the next few years at least he'll still be black. >> wilmore lampoons what he sees as a not so hidden agenda of this year's election. >> that means it's time to see what's happening with the unblackening. >> you talk on program unblackenning. >> trying to de-negrofy the white house. >> the race to de-negrofy. >> that felt good, didn't it? >>ed admit it, it was kinda fun. >> a self described blerd a black nerd, wilmore grew up loving science fiction and magic. >> i try to come maybe once a week when i'm in town. >> which explains why whenever he's in los angeles, wilmore tries to swing by "the magic castle" a somewhat eccentric hang out for magicians. >> just see somebody sitting here, just start doing something. just start picking up cards, there's another one. oh, wait. >> actually, as we found out, even when he's taking a break from his nightly job, wilmore's mind never juan terse too far the race card. what is the color of this ace? >> black. >> wrong. african american. that's okay. take your time. it's my fault. i should have warned you in the beginning that i should have cleared that up. all right, what is the suit of just keep in mind a little -- i apologize. i shouldn't have do you that. >> but race is just part of what captivates larry wilmore who is fascinated by the imbalances of power. i have this rule, it's called top dog-underdog. underdog gets to make fun of top dog, but top dog can't make fun of underdog. you get to be top dog, congratulations. that dynamic happens not just in race but the male-demail dynamic. how come i can't make fun of underdog? because your top dog. so stop it. >> when we sat in on an early morning writers meeting, the top dog up for discussion was a rock star. >> i think -- bono. >> comedy should be the -- he had just shared with the senate his unusual strategy for the war on terror. >> and chris rock -- to send up the idea, wilmore's staff imagined unique voice of comedian gilbert gottfried. >> where are you? >> i'm in war-torn seary larry. >> that's right. it paid off. >> when bono is a call to action i answer. >> as carves out his talk show identity, wilmore is trying something a little different. winning -- >> yet again have to talk about mass shooting here inner. >> winning praise from critics for not always chasing laughs if there's a serious point to be made. >> i didn't get into comedy to talk about -- less reoccupied with humor whoever occupied a modern news chair. >> mr. wilmore's not very funny. the thing that's worked for me is having as much of a connection to the material as possible. sometimes the material requires a more straight forward approach little more silliness, you know. >> this coming saturday he won't have a choice. washington's movers and shakers want to laugh. and from what we've seen, larry wilmore will have something up his sleeve. >> the president means a lot to you on a personal level. >> yes. >> so thatch you're not going to zing? >> no, no. one has nothing to do with the other. i'll make fun of my parents and they mean a lot to me on a personal level. i've been making fun of them for years. don't get close to me, jim, the jokes will start flying. >> osgood: ahead -- broadway want great whitening without the mess?

okay, mostly prepared? could you save 1% more of your income? it doesn't sound like much, but saving an additional 1% now, could make a big difference over time. i'm going to be even better about saving. you can do it, it helps in the long run. prudential >> osgood: as you know "purple rain" is a huge hit for prince. so to remember him "the new yorker" features purple rain on this week's cover. the questions remain about his death. no doubt that his was a life of we have an appreciation from bill flanagan. >> this has been a tough year for music legends, but the death of prince this past week is especially painful because it was so unexpected. he appeared eternally young and vital. made music as a pace and standard of excellence that very few artists have or could ever match. the first time i saw prince perform was at a nightclub across from pen way park in boston on st. patrick's day, 1981. i was a big fan of his album "dirty mind" but nothing live. this was at a time when racial tensions were high in boston, but that night in that bar, irish guys from southie and black kids from roxbury and gays and straights and latinos were all united in the prince army. his big radio break through came a couple of years later with "1999" and "little red corvette." a year or so after that "purple rain" made him a household name. then the deluge, great record "raspberry beret"," "kiss." he was so prolific that he gave away songs any other artist would have kept for himself. in the '50s and '60s rock and roll meant the mixture of black and white music. but the time prince came along radio had resegregated the play lists, the new rule said that rock was white and black music was called r&b or funx or disco. prince was a one-man rainbow coalition. he sang sweet soul ballads like smokey robinson. he laid down the funx like george clinton, he rocked like the rolling stones and he shredded on the guitar like prince transcended radio's 'par advertise like a musical mandela. i met him five or six times but he was always pretty reserved. i never felt like i got to know him except through his music. his music was enough. the only limit i ever saw in prince was that he was so talented, so shockingly self contained that he did not leave much space for the audience to effect his performance. he did not seem to need the crowd. auto few years ago that changed. the last three or four times i saw prince in concert he was playing off the fans, reacting to them, letting them into the music, too. there was a joy radiating from prince in those performance, is that was new. his playing was no longer guarded. prince was doing what his songs had done all along. he was making room for everyone. >> well, why not? talk show host larry will born. >> osgood: money changes everything, even itself. the treasury department this past week announced that andrew jackson's face on the front of the $20 bill will be replaced by that of escaped slave turned abolitionist harriet tubman. it's a mile post. our currency has stayed current. consider the cash no longer being printed but good as gold legal tender. the $500 bill. that's president william mckinley staring back at you. grover cleveland. he graces the $1,000 bill. james madison is the answer to who is on the $5,000 bill. does the name salmon chase ring a bell? he's on the $10,000 bill. maybe it was because he was the 6th chief justice or more likely because he was secretary of the treasury under abraham lincoln. last, but far from least, there's the $100,000 bill. take a minute to dig one out of your purse or wallet. recognize that face? president woodrow wilson. it's the largest note ever printed by the united states, used solely by federal reserve make 10 million of them. >> osgood: look whose talking about his upcoming performness at the white house correspondents' dinner in washington, it's larry wilmore, personal take on our times. as jim axelrod will now show us. >> what happened to you?

>> it's crowded space, this late night comedy thing. what's your part of the curve? >> well, the thing that we felt we had the permission to talk about more than anybody when we started was all the racial problems that were going on in the country. we don't have lot of time to waste. last saturday a white cop killed a black man killed walter scott. we joked, all the good-bad racial stuff already happened there's nothing else to cover. surprise, something happened. i'm talking of course about the oscar nominations or lack thereof. people say, why do you got to talk about race, blah, blah? well, why not? of our day and of our time. i'll stop talking about race people stop being racist. >> certainly familiar turf with his 54-year-old native of southern california. after breaking into tv in the '80s. >> you wouldn't do anything that could get you -- >> his behind the camera work. as writer and co-creator of "the bernie mac show." and the hit sitcom "blackish" gave him wide berth to comment on race in america. >> sometimes i feel like a bit of an oddity. >> if you look to your left you'll see the mythical and majestic black family out of their natural habitat and yet still thriving. >> larry wilmore! >> and in his work as "senior black correspondent" on "the daily show" and the formula all >> before we get too deep i need to be clear about something. i voted for obama because he's black. is he still black? yes, then he's doing okay. >> the white people get that? >> i don't think so. it's funny when people try to throw that back. well, how dare you? but you've been voting for a white man, that's been the choice all the time, you know. fine lee when a brother comes in, i can't vote for the brother? >> may not get anything done in the next few years at least he'll still be black. >> wilmore lampoons what he sees as a not so hidden agenda of this year's election. >> that means it's time to see what's happening with the unblackening. >> you talk on program unblackenning. >> trying to de-negrofy the white house. >> the race to de-negrofy. >> that felt good, didn't it? >>ed admit it, it was kinda fun. >> a self described blerd a black nerd, wilmore grew up loving science fiction and magic. >> i try to come maybe once a week when i'm in town. >> which explains why whenever he's in los angeles, wilmore tries to swing by "the magic castle" a somewhat eccentric hang out for magicians. >> just see somebody sitting here, just start doing something. just start picking up cards, there's another one. oh, wait. >> actually, as we found out, even when he's taking a break from his nightly job, wilmore's mind never juan terse too far the race card. what is the color of this ace? >> black. >> wrong. african american. that's okay. take your time. it's my fault. i should have warned you in the beginning that i should have cleared that up. all right, what is the suit of just keep in mind a little -- i apologize. i shouldn't have do you that. >> but race is just part of what captivates larry wilmore who is fascinated by the imbalances of power. i have this rule, it's called top dog-underdog. underdog gets to make fun of top dog, but top dog can't make fun of underdog. you get to be top dog, congratulations. that dynamic happens not just in race but the male-demail dynamic. how come i can't make fun of underdog? because your top dog. so stop it. >> when we sat in on an early morning writers meeting, the top dog up for discussion was a rock star. >> i think -- bono. >> comedy should be the -- he had just shared with the senate his unusual strategy for the war on terror. >> and chris rock -- to send up the idea, wilmore's staff imagined unique voice of comedian gilbert gottfried. >> where are you? >> i'm in war-torn seary larry. >> that's right. it paid off. >> when bono is a call to action i answer. >> as carves out his talk show identity, wilmore is trying something a little different. winning -- >> yet again have to talk about mass shooting here inner. >> winning praise from critics for not always chasing laughs if there's a serious point to be made. >> i didn't get into comedy to talk about -- less reoccupied with humor whoever occupied a modern news chair. >> mr. wilmore's not very funny. the thing that's worked for me is having as much of a connection to the material as possible. sometimes the material requires a more straight forward approach little more silliness, you know. >> this coming saturday he won't have a choice. washington's movers and shakers want to laugh. and from what we've seen, larry wilmore will have something up his sleeve. >> the president means a lot to you on a personal level. >> yes. >> so thatch you're not going to zing? >> no, no. one has nothing to do with the other. i'll make fun of my parents and they mean a lot to me on a personal level. i've been making fun of them for years. don't get close to me, jim, the jokes will start flying. >> osgood: ahead -- broadway want great whitening without the mess?

>> sure. we like a little hackiness. >> at least going rogue hasn't been his only troubleful use of cheap, overseas labor while economical proved disastrous in the field of public relations. in the '90s nike was accused of fostering sweat shop labor, human rights organizations called for boycotts of nike products. while knight resisted the charges at first, he now insists conditions and wages have been improved. >> initially your reaction to it, was making things worse. you were defensive about it. >> i was. good shoes come out of the good factories, fact that they could did concentrate on. >> knight has softened in his later years. his personal fortune now estimated to be around $5 billion. money, he says, was never the reason he started selling shoes. but now that he has it, he intends to use it. >> by the time you know the lives of my children and their kids run out, i will have given most of it to charity. >> together with penny, his wife of 48 years, they have already donated well over a billion dollars to various causes. they pledged $500 million for cancer research at the oregon health and science university. at stanford, where he drew up that blueprint for nike, they have given more than half a billion dollars and counting. but it's here, at the university of oregon, where knight's mark is most obvious, from the law school named after his father to arena named after his son matthew, who died tragically in a diving accident. >> i can get pretty emotional about this place, too. after all, i was born here. >> the university of oregon has given nike something back, too. a high profile plat norm to launch uniforms, helmets and of course, shoes. phil knight wanted to make history as an athlete himself. but instead, he ran a different race, one that has put that big fat checkmark on the face or at least the feet of athletics. >> can you imagine yourself doing anything else?
