"rogue one" is expected to be the biggest blockbuster of the holiday season. the movie could pull in upwards of $130 million in its opening weekend. early tracking also suggested that hillary clinton would be president. i know. so you never know. you still have to go see the movie. and welcome to the weekend, everyone. i'm anthony mason along with alex wagner. later, we're going to take you to a wine shop that's older than the united states. there you'll meet a man whose job it is to sniff out fake bottles. some sold for tens of thousands of dollars. you'll see how he does it. plus, it is an interesting side effect of nearly every major election. people don't travel. we'll show you why global disruptions and a weakening euro could actually end up saving you money. and his job is simple. replace a legend. we'll talk with chris steely, the young musician taking over as host of a prairie home companion. and he will perform in our saturday session. we begin with this morning's top story. russia's apparent interference with the u.s. presidential election. intelligence sources tell cbs russia not only tried to influence the election, but also worked to help donald trump defeat hillary clinton. >> the news was first reported las last night by the "washington post." they shared a secret assessment that electing trump was russia's goal. just over a month before the election, 17 u.s. intelligence agencies accused the russian government of hacking e-mails from the democratic national committee and hillary clinton's campaign which were then published on wikileaks. earlier intelligence assessments concluded moscow's actions were aimed at eroding confidence in the american electoral system. the latest cia assessment found that the operation was aimed at boosting trump's chances of winning the white house. additionally, the "new york times" reports that russia also hacked the republican national committee, but did not release any of that information. republicans deny this. >> the trump transition team responded to the news with a statement reading in part, these are the same saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction. the election ended a long time ago. russia has in the past denied interfering in the u.s. election. there was no comment from the white house. >> the news came just hours after president obama ordered a full review of russian hacking during the campaign. for more on all of this, we're joined by "washington post" columnist. katherine, good morning. >> good morning. >> the trump campaign is issuing a fairly broad dismissal here of the evidence. do you think there is any chance in the coming days that the president-elect changes his position? >> has the president-elect ever publicly changed his position when it comes to his own legitimacy about the win? no. i think the transition team and trump himself are going to view this true a party conclusions that would come out of such a report are suspect. >> according to the post report, this information was presented to a group of senators before the election, but there was a party divide about how to handle it. >> yes, delegitimizing the potential win and the entire process. the american public has a right to know about any potential interference by a foreign entity into our democratic process, into our -- the legitimacy of our elections. but there's a question about how do you present this information without antagonizing the president-elect and how do you present this information without compromising the peaceful transition of power. >> to be noted, president obama apparently exhibited some reluctance in terms of letting this come out to the public. he thought it would seem part partisan. donald trump is tweeting about "the there is word out that the ceo of exxonmobil may be donald trump's top pick for secretary of state. do you think that pick is going to now be under heightened scrutiny? >> of course. it would have been under higher scrutiny no matter what since trump has said we should have a warmer relationship with russia, et cetera. all of that as well as whatever business ties he may have to russia and to russian businesses, all of that has called into question both what kind of relationship his campaign may have had with putin, secret or public, as well as what his policies towards this frenemy of ours would be like going forward. so this pick in particular enflames a lot of those concerns. >> thanks for being with us this morning. president-elect donald trump is expected to attend the army/navy game in internal battles going on in his cabinet search. errol barnett is in our washington bureau. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that's right, anthony. president-elect donald trump is more than halfway through nominating his cabinet. but the most highly sought after position is that of secretary of state. yesterday, one of mr. trump's key allies pulled out of the running. to a crowd in michigan, president-elect donald trump basic ebasked in the glory of turning the blue state red. >> i heard the courts ruled we totally won it. it's over. >> reporter: reliving his victory, mr. trump touted his transition choices and praised his future cabinet. >> one of the great cabinets that has ever been assembled in our nation's history. >> reporter: one position left open, that of secretary of state. in a statement friday, mr. revealed that rudy giuliani removed his name from consideration at a meeting held november 29th, the same day trump dined with mitt romney nearly two weeks ago. julgiuliani said he withdrew in part because of the drama surrounding the top cabinet spot. >> the whole thing was becoming kind of very confusing and my desire to be in the cabinet was great, but it wasn't that great. >> reporter: the senior transition advisor kellyanne conway says the decision for giuliani to remove himself was mutual. >> he'll continue to be an informal advisor to the president-elect. he was incredibly loyal to donald trump. >> reporter: transition sources tell cbs news that romney and john bolton are the top contenders. giuliani panned romney citing his past criticism of the president-elect. >> you can make friends and make up, candidate for the cabinet. >> reporter: also, the trump transition team is sparking alarm at the energy department sending officials there are probing 74-point questionnaire that asks for a list of all employees or contractors who have attended any meetings on carbon reduction. and asks which programs within the department are essential to meeting the goals of president obama's climate action plan. now cbs news has also confirmed the current president of gold mgoldman sachs was offered a position. it would give a wall street super power economic authority. alex? >> errol barnett in washington, thank you. a note that later today, president-elect will be interviewed during the army/navy game right here on cbs. tomorrow morning, john dickerson's guests will kellyanne conway, plus senators john mccain and bernie sanders. a federal government shutdown has been averted with less than an hour to spare. the senate passed the stopgap spending bill by a vote of 63 to 36 late last night. president obama signed the bill early this morning. it will keep the government running through april 28th. it includes war funding and disaster aid for louisiana and other states. this morning, winter storm warnings are in effect from washington state to colorado. an arctic front that started in the pacific northwest is working its way east bringing snow to the intermountain west and dropping temperatures from the plains to western new york state. we're about 50 miles south of buffalo where it's been snowing on and off for the past few days. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that is definitely the story here in western new york. we are at a ski fallen within the last 24 hours. the good thing about it, it's a very light snow so it's very easy to maneuver around. what we dealt with just getting here at times, whiteout conditions and roads that haven't been plowed. across the nation, temperatures are dropping and in some parts of the country snow piles are growing. in indiana, crews are trying to stay ahead of the storms by pretreating roads with salt and brine. >> that 32-degree mark is critical. just under we get snow and we have onto also watch bridge and pavement temperatures. >> reporter: president-elect donald trump's jet touched down amid a snow squall in grand rapids, michigan. it's also getting much colder from north dakota to minnesota. temperatures are dipping into the single digits. meanwhi meanwhile, oregon is thawing out after freezing rain made roads treacherous forcinge in the portland area to close early on friday. back east, some are welcoming winter. >> we love snow. >> reporter: western new york skiers are pleased to hear the forecast means they can hit the slopes this weekend. >> the manmade snow is really helpful because you can make it a denser snow and it becomes the base of the ski slopes. and then you get natural snow on top of it and makes it all fluffy and pretty. natural snow is also great to think about skiing.t people - >> reporter: and if you can hear that sound behind me, that's actually one of the snow machines. they tell me they have actually created enough snow to cover 73 football fields with a foot of snow. again, that's on top of what's already fallen here in the last 24 to 48 hours. anthony? >> thanks. incase you forgot what winter looked like, there it we turn to meteorologist ed curran. good morning. >> good morning. everywhere you look, it looks like winter. cold temperatures once again today. but it's nothing compared to what you'll see by midweek. look at this. chicago at 6 degrees instead of the normal mid-30s for this time of year. so a real polar plunge as we head mid-week. windchill advisory this morning in north dakota where it feels like 25 to 35 degrees below zero. here's the snow in the northwest. futurecast shows you how the snow moves east. snow develops around chicago late this afternoon and then continues to the northeast. you'll see it here by the time we get to early monday morning. winter storm advisories and warnings that are up out to the northwest. and here in the chicago area. we have a winter weather advisory, but to the north in wisconsin a winter storm watch there. and finally as we lake erie here, a lake-effect snow warning. the snow continues coming off the lakes there and we'll see another perhaps 5 or 6 inches of snow before that wraps up later today. alex? >> ed curran of our chicago station. thank you. testimony continues next week in the federal hate crimes trial of dylann roof. roof who is white is accused of shooting nine black people to death last year at a bible study meeting in a charleston, south carolina, church. the two-hour video recording was introduced as evidence on friday. in it, roof reveals his hatred of african-americans and his broader intentions when he barged into the bible study group. >> i went to that church in charleston and -- i did >>teeporr: this is dylann roof's newly released videotape confession to fbi agents. >> did what? [ inaudible ] i know it's tough sometimes to say it. >> it's not that i don't want to say it because i don't want to make myself seem guilty, i just don't really like saying it. >> reporter: for two hours, he calmly outlined the details of the church massacre. >>mh so did you shoot him? >> yes. >> what kind of gun did you use? >> a glock 45. >> reporter: surveillance video shows lambs leading themselves to slaughter. mother emanuel parishioners arriving for bible study in june of 2015. in walked dylann roof, his fanny pack carried a 45 block pistol and seven magazines loaded hollow-point bullets. the agent later asked why did you do it. roof said i had to do it because somebody had to. blacks are raping and killing white people on the secrets every day. what i did is minuscule to what they're doing to white people every day. roof guessed he'd killed five people, but it was nine. once inside, he opened fire when the faithful rose and closed their eyes in prayer. then he cautiously left the church. his right hand still held the pistol. roof told investigators, i was in absolute awe that nobody was there. i peeped out the door and didn't see a cop. i kept the last magazine not because i was going to shoot cops, but shoot myself. >> i clearly understand the harm that he did. >> reporter: malcolm graham's sister was murdered in the church they grew up in. >> this was an attack on a race of people and christian church, an attack on humanity. >> reporter: graham wants roof to get the death penalty, a question of punishment that divides relatives of those murders. fbi agents asked roof whether he was guilty. he said, i am guilty, we all know i'm guilty. for cbs this morning saturday, charleston, south carolina. u.s. is putting more boots on the ground in syria at the same time it's pursuing a diplomatic solution to end the five-year-long civil war there. at a regional security meeting in bahrain this morning, ash carter said the u.s. will send 200 troops to syria in addition to the 300 already there. they will work to help kurdish and arab fighters capture raqqah, the de facto capital of the islamic state. this morning, secretary of state john kerry is in paris meeting with diplomats to save syria's largest city, aleppo, from complete destruction. the russian defense ministry have left eastern aleppo and more than 1,000 rebels have laid down their arms. we're watching the mass exodus of citizens from aleppo. >> reporter: they came by the thousands and just kept on coming. on foot, in wheelbarrows, any way they could. exhausted, frightened, hungry, but alive. they've been walking for over eight hours since escaping from rebel territory. this family told us they'd hid in their basement during the worst of the bombing. we don't even know where we're going, this mother of four told us. as long as it's far away from the explosions. early on friday morning, there was a lull in the fighting. and that's when thousands of civilians still trapped in rebel-held aleppo made a run for it. now it's a desperate this man asks to get on the truck. there's no room, he's told. but they manage to squeeze him in. and find a little space for a

easier to do. from chicago, dean reynolds has the story. >> reporter: mvp staffing is a job placement agency that operates 60 offices in 38 states. its vehicles carry thousands of mostly temporary workers to client companies every day. it now stands accused of rigging the business against african-americans. built on the testimony of alleged mvp whistleblowers, the lawsuit charges the company systematically placed hispanics over blacks for one simple reason -- hispanics were undocumented and less inclined to complain about hours, wages or conditions. joseph sellers represents the group of african-american plaintiffs. >> the actions of mvp that we have uncovered were either directly responsive to the client company demands or what they anticipated the client companies wanted. >> reporter: 29-year-old kevin james turned to mvp after a string of odd jobs. how many times did you seek a job through them? >> i would say at least 20 times. >> reporter: and you got it once? >> that's correct. >> reporter: james has been out of work for a month and has little recourse but to turn to placement agencies like mvp. >> i was hoping to go through one of those companies and seek help for work. >> reporter: is it frustrating that you can't? >> very frustrating. >> reporter: african-americans who make up 29% of chicago's population account for 52% of the city's unemployed. the

now for morning rounds with dr. john lapuc and dr. karen arula. first up, life expectancy. the national center for health statistics compared the causes and patterns of death from 2015 d for the most part is news wasn't good. life expectancy for the u.s. population as a whole fell from 78.9 years to 78.8. it's a small decline but a decline nonetheless. the first time since 1993 that u.s. life expectancy has fallen. the age adjusted death rate increased by 1.2%. doctor, when it comes to cause of death, how does 2015 compare? >> not well. the only cause of death that went down was cancer which went down slightly. death from flu and pneumonia, that stayed stable. of the others they all increased slightly. that's heart disease, cancer. we said did a little bit better. chronic lower respiratory disease, unintentional injuries, over doses, stroke and alzheimer's. finishing out the list of the top ten are diabetes, flu and pneumonia, kidney disease and suicide. when you say you're cresting there you have to say what's going on and do we have to do something different? >> heart disease remains the leading cause. which factors play into that? >> it doesn't have to be that way. we don't have to watch our family members and co, woers die of heart disease. the only two risk factors we cannot change are age and history. it comes down to education, telling people the risk factors, awareness teaching people about signs and symptoms so they can act early, and prevention. we need to be screening people starting as early as age 20 for things like high blood pressure and high cholesterol and teaching people to have heart healthy lifestyle from the time they are children, not 40, 50, 60 getting a new diagnosis of coronary disease or having a heart attack. >> what should the take away be for health professionals? >> listen to tara. prevention. >> always. >> always listen to tara. >> i like that. >> we like to do stuff to people after they get sick. prevention is the name of the game. if you look at the top things, unintentional injuries, over doses and substance abuse deaths, fentanyl went up dramatically. we have narcotic over use. falls in the elderly. with suicide you have to say, mental health. it's so huge. how do we change the stigma so people can come forward and say they're having trouble. how do we increase prevention services and treatment services. it's all wrapped up. with the fentanyl over doses and narcotics we have to teach doctors how to prescribe better and think about pain control in a better way. >> next up, the distribution of diabetes. the cdc estimates over 20 million people have the condition where high blood sugar levels lead toer complications like amputations and blindness. a recent report looked at the incidence of diabetes. three states reporting the highest rates were alabama, west virginia, and mississippi. the lowest incidence was among people of utah followed by rhode island and colorado. some of these percentages are quite high. how prevalent is diabetes across the country? >> such a devastating disease for the individual. it inflicts collateral damage on society affecting 29 million americans, accounts for 20% of health care spending. it's in the top ten for causes of death and one of the leading causes of disabling disorders like amputation, blindness, kidney disease. this is a big problem that comes back to the need for screening and early intervention in people who may have risk factors. >> for folks who don't know a lot about diabetes, what's the difference between type 1 and type it is confusing. insulin is a hormone that helps take blood sugar, glucose from the outside of a cell to the inside of a cell. once inside it can be used for energy and other things. in type 1 diabetes it's an auto immune disease. your own body starts attacking and destroying cells in the pancreas. you have too little insulin, the blood sugar builds up and you have increased blood sugar, not enough inside the cells. in type 2 there is plenty of insulin but your cells become less sensitive to its effects. one of the causes is obesity. with type 1 diabetes you give insulin injectable. type two there are ways to treat it with insulin, oral medications, lifestyle adjustments like diet, exercise and weight loss. sometimes if you weight your type two diabetes which is 95% of diabetes, that can actually go down. you may not need medication at all. >> there are a lot of americans whose blood sugar is higher than normal. how likely is this to develop into type two diabetes? >> you're talking about prediabetes. i see so many patients in my office with prediabetes. this is the beginning of diabetes where your blood sugar is higher than normal but not the level you consider somebody diabetic. it affects one in three americans in this country and 90% of the people have no awareness that they have it. without intervention, 15 to 30% of prediabetics will develop type 2 within five years. the nice thing is you can do things to try to reverse that. things like weight loss, exercise, and really changing your diet. finally, what you have been waiting for -- drones. the flying devices are popular with hobbyists and medicine? according to a recent study in the journal transfusion the answer might be yes. researchers at johns hopkins university tested drones to see if they could successfully transport blood products. they conducted test flights lasting a little bit over 26 minutes. the drone ride didn't have a negative impact on the blood. so there could be a future for fast airborne delivery of life-saving transfusions when time is of the essence. >> here is something hot off the presses. there is a company called zip line. i have been in contact with them in the last 24 hours. they said starting monday there will be blood product delivery by drones in rwanda. especially during the rainy season it can be hard to get blood products one place to another. it's starting monday. >> it's a brave new world. >> it's happening. >> a peaceful good use for drones. >> thank you for your time. from ror what happens when fake news stories and outrageous conspiracy theories

theories thrive on the internet. what happens when they make the jump from the online world to the one we live in. last week's terrifying incident in a washington restaurant is a case in point. 28-year-old edgar welch read an outlandish story online that the pizza restaurant was home to a child ring. he showed up at the restaurant with a gun and now faces felony ge joseph parent, professor of political science and co-author of "american conspiracy theories" lt. in studio we are joined by legal analyst ricky cleman. good morning. joe, let me start with you. in an interview yesterday the executive editor of the "new york times" said he wished he had taken the news more seriously. when you read this story for the first time were you surprised by the traction it gained? >> frankly i'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. there are a lot of people, in fact a majority of americans believe in some conspiracy theory or another. it only take as small number of people who believe it to act on it. >> why do people believe in conspiracy theories like this, joe? >> there are a complex number of factors that contribute to this. it seems to be that generally people are more prone to believe in conspiracy theories and people are less prone to it. you want people to be sensitive to threats and other people to be less sensitive and something in between. >> ricky, a young man showed up at a pizzeria. is there legal recourse in this age when you have real world repercussions like the ones we saw this week? >> not much, i'm sorry to say. let's look at what happened at the pizzeria. when someone shoots off a gun we are glad no one else was injured or killed. of course you could have repercussions against the shooter. what happens when something like this starts online? if you have a direct threat like we did with the sandy hook deniers. when someone threatens a parent that you're going to die, that's a direct threat. that can be prosecuted because someone posted that on the internet. when it comes time for going criminally first let alone civilly, after a website or provider it's not going to happen. i even mean civilly. let's look at the analogy. we used to say in the world of free speech it was okay to have, of course, the first amendment we cherish. you couldn't yell "fire" in a crowded theater because that's a clear and present danger. that's the same thing as a threat. when you get to the conspiracy theories that abound there is not much you can do. >> wow. >> joe, is a conspiracy theory or fake news, do they gain credibility when someone connected to authority essentially perpetuates it? >> absolutely. that's one of the best reasons conspiracy theories spread. since they aren't partisan in nature, they tend to be contained because people are just as likely on the left as the right to believe in them. people on the left tend to believe bad things about people on the right and vice versa. the best predictor of conspiracy theories are the party of the president. now that we have a republican in office we expect more conspiracy theories from the left. >> what's the best way to dispel a conspiracy theory? >> to be kind, patient, understanding of people's perspectives. a lot of the people the harder you try to dispel it, the more they want to believe it because they think you are part of the plot and you are trying to man handle their beliefs. if you listen to them, try to reason and ask them maybe to apply the same standards of evidence to this belief they do to other beliefs, i think that's probably the best way to help people have at least an exchange of ideas and maybe you will convince some people some of the time. >> joseph parent, ricky cleman. thanks for being with us. they clashed on the gridiron in the 19th and 20th

>> you need to take this in two different parts. first of all, the facts are that the united states security networks or internet networks are at risk. they are certainly an unlocked door. they have been attacked certainly with the office of personnel management, with target, home depot, now dnc hack that happened over the summer. the fact is the security networks are unlocked and need security. the second part is the foreign policy impacts and what exactly the u.s. should do once this report comes back from the obama administration as given to congress. congress decided to step up in this case. they have been a little bit absent in terms of cyber security the last couple of years. given the election and the fact that it looks like it could be the russians that they are putting pressure and the obama administration said, okay, we've got a limited amount of time left here that we are in office. we'll come back and issue a fact-based report and give it to congress to see what they want to do next. >> what will the investigation involve and who will be involved? >> so they are going to pull together a large group within the federal government that the defense department, the intelligence agencies, department of homeland security, the state department, state and local officials will come together to do essentially a national intelligence estimate they believe. that will also not only have information on what signatures might be electronically but an effort to pull together human intelligence as well. >> james, how much of the report should we expect to be released to the public? >> that's really going to be a negotiation, i think, between the u.s. congress and the obama administration. i think it will be incumbent upon congress to release as much as possible given the fact this has gotten so much attention. this isn't the first time in our nation's history we have had an october surprise dating back to reagan and the carter election back in 1980. there was a lot of discussion about negotiation with the hostages. so i think the american people are looking for confidence, looking for congress to step up. even elijah cummings said the other day it would be malpractice for congress not to look into this and do more effort. given the public hearings in january, february and march we'll learn quite a information. >> do you think it's possible there were more than hacks involved here, that voting systems, election systems may have been breached in some way? >> well, you know, voting systems aren't secure. they were bought for efficiency. at the state and local level there isn't a lot of security. it's not a requirement and never has been. there isn't a lot of funding. one thing congress has to look at working with gov no, sir and state and locals is how to secure the networks, the funding that's needed. ohio called out the national guard for the election because they weren't sure what to do to secure the network. they will have to look at things like this and think about how to secure these things. that will be one of the issues that congress will have to look at. it should be in the report in terms of what the vulnerabilities are at that level. we don't have anybody looking at it either. >> james norton, thanks for that. >> thank you for having me. benjamin netanyahu is counting the days until the start of the trump administration. in an interview for "60 minutes" benjamin netanyahu who has often been add ot odds with president obama said he's never been as hopeful about israel's place in the world as he is now. he said it will only grow once mr. trump takes office. >> i know donald trump very well. i think his attitude, his support for israel is clear. he feels warmly about the jewish state, the jewish people. no question about it. >> with trump do you think israel will not be as at odds with the united states as you have been under the obama administration? >> yeah. we had -- i had differences of opinion with president obama. most well known of course is iran. >> was it personal between the two >> no. no. i don't think so. i think -- suppose we had the greatest of personal chemistry, okay? so, what? you think that wouldn't stand up against the iran deal if i enendadangngerereded thehe exis israel? of course i would. > you can see all of leslie temperatures from the plains to western new york state. there's been a steady stream of lake effect snow in buffalo, new york, this morning with at least a foot expected by tomorrow. the midwest could be in store for a foot of snow by sunday from minnesota to chicago. >> now this. the days of relative quiet in the cabin of a commercial flight may be federal regulators are considering a plan to allow airlines to offer passengers in-flight cell phone service. you heard it right. at least one group is urging regulators to drop the calls. here's the story. >> some people have a lack of respect or courtesy on the phone. >> airline passengers are worried about the possibility of in flight phone calls. the department of transportation's plan would allow the option to provide the service. if they do, the carriers would be required to inform passengers in advance that on board calls are allowed. tara from florida would opt out. >> i may go with the airline that didn't allow it. it could get out of hand. >> we'll fight this. >> reporter: sara nelson is the president of the association of flight attendants. >> if this is enacted we will fight it in congress. flight attendants will have to creates a safety and security threat for everyone on board. >> reporter: while cell phone calls are banned on planes it doesn't extend to calls placed through internet connections. something that's become increasingly available on commercial flights. delta, american, and southwest said they have no plans to change the policy. united and jetblue are both reviewing the proposal. some passengers like margie are already on board. >> with the technology and everybody uses today, that would be a great thing. >> reporter: transportation pback against reports on this yesterday with a tweet. it says we are seeking feedback on how far to go in restricting calls. it all may be a moot point. the public has 60 days to comment. by then a new trump there to represent him and perform a dylan song. an indiana college basketball tradition is 20 years old. >> from the near side again and does it again.
