1
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,638
I can't tell you where we are,
frankly, for our own safety.
2
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,394
Systematically,
we have seen journalists attacked.
3
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,598
We would like to be showing you,
instead of this strange image of me
4
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,798
sitting on the floor
of an undisclosed location in dim lighting,
5
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,792
we would like to be showing you pictures,
6
00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:00,033
live pictures, of what's happening
in Tahrir Square right now,
7
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,840
but we can't do that
because our cameras have been taken down.
8
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,197
Physically, Elliot, when you say
your cameras have been taken down?
9
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,479
Through threats, and intimidation,
and through actual, physical attacks.
10
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,553
We're looking at Al Jazeera feed
from about six hours ago.
11
00:02:13,640 --> 00:02:15,120
Can you describe what we're seeing?
12
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,317
He can't describe anything except his room.
13
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:18,720
Ask him what's in the minibar.
14
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,553
I'd like it if you settled down.
15
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,154
Then I think you're gonna be disappointed.
16
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,312
And that was roughly 7:00 p.m. in Cairo.
17
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,478
- Elliot?
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Will.
18
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,630
Elliot, can you...
19
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,996
There's gunfire coming
from below our hotel room.
20
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,355
- Where's he going?
- Out on the balcony.
21
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:34,794
- Get back on the air.
- Do we still have Elliot?
22
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,872
- Take it.
- God damn it!
23
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,429
If you're just joining us,
with dawn about to break in Cairo,
24
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,911
a crowd estimated at over 100,000 people
gathered several hours ago
25
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,673
in Tahrir Square in the Egyptian capital...
26
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,672
Get back on the fucking air.
27
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,471
...Mubarak resign after 18 days
of unprecedented pro-democracy protests.
28
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,240
How long's he gonna be on the balcony?
29
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:54,396
...the vast majority of the Egyptian people,
30
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,915
the resignation was expected
by President Obama,
31
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,835
French President Nicolas Sarkozy,
and British Prime Minister David Cameron.
32
00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:02,752
But in a 17-minute address,
33
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,355
Mubarak announced
that he wouldn't be stepping down,
34
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,751
infuriating the crowd,
which appears to have grown larger
35
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,833
and angrier
throughout this extraordinary night.
36
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,759
We're speaking with our own Elliot Hirsch,
who, like all foreign journalists...
37
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,873
No, Elliot's on the balcony
singing a song from Evita.
38
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,394
- ...at an undisclosed location.
- He's back.
39
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,551
- Pardon me, Will.
- Yeah. Is everything all right?
40
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,793
That was gunfire.
41
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,954
It doesn't appear that anyone's been injured,
but it is a little hard to tell from where I am.
42
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,350
We're looking at a feed
from six hours ago, Elliot.
43
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,631
Can you describe what's happening
in the Square right now?
44
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,713
The crowd is surging and spreading.
45
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,111
The army has made a ring
around Tahrir Square.
46
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:40,759
Oh, God, are you all right?
47
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,400
It's a glass door.
You can't see me standing here?
48
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:44,755
Yeah, be quiet. There's a new story.
49
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,470
We're getting footage of a protest
that's forming in Appleton, Wisconsin.
50
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,279
The governor's
inside a newspaper office there,
51
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,558
and a spontaneous protest of teachers
is happening outside the building right now.
52
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,755
Yep, go.
53
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,069
Call the edit bay
and tell them what's happening.
54
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,072
Will, we're gonna push the commercial break.
55
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,880
A small protest broke out
in front of a newspaper office
56
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,510
where Scott Walker is right now.
So we're cutting the feed.
57
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,592
Tap your pen if you understand.
58
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,036
And now the protests
are spreading out from Tahrir?
59
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,796
- I'm already on it.
- Which one?
60
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,917
- The teachers in Wisconsin.
- That's me.
61
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,719
- What's going on?
- The governor of Wisconsin
62
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,440
is pushing a bill through the legislature
to balance the state budget
63
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,910
by busting public sector unions,
especially teachers,
64
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,838
and strip their collective bargaining rights.
65
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,675
The governor is trapped in a newspaper office
with 75 teachers protesting outside,
66
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,080
and by tomorrow, it'll be 10,000.
67
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,880
Yes, but in the meantime, some Egyptians
are about to overthrow Egypt.
68
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,758
- Is there anyone else here?
- Nope.
69
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:44,275
Okay. We got two packages to cut
and only one editor.
70
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,593
Cory, if I promise I understand the irony,
can I break union rules and sit at this bay?
71
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,751
Will you talk to someone
about hiring more editors?
72
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:52,593
Talk is all I can promise. But I'm on your side.
73
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,875
Go ahead.
74
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,997
- Where do you want to start?
- It's around 12:20.
75
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,720
He starts the answer with,
"We have, in state government..."
76
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,952
- We have, in state government...
- Right there.
77
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,555
Before I'd taken office,
plans for contingencies
78
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,599
no matter what the circumstances.
We have updated those.
79
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,230
I've had a full briefing
from all the major level-one state agencies
80
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,800
as well as the National Guard yesterday.
81
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,916
- Cut it there.
- Cut it there.
82
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,190
Pay attention to your thing.
83
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:17,670
Right there where the teachers are chanting.
84
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,913
Hey, hey, ho, ho,
selfish Scott has got to go.
85
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,196
Cut it there. That's the package. Render it.
86
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,436
Come on. Come on.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
87
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,079
I'm about to have
my Broadcast News moment.
88
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,994
There are at least nine things between here
and the control room I can trip over.
89
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,958
It's 2011.
We don't move film manually anymore.
90
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,793
You're gonna have to move this manually.
91
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,234
It's taking too long
to render both at the same time.
92
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:39,754
- Grab a thumb drive.
- Can I use a thumb drive?
93
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:40,830
- Throw it in the USB.
- Put it in the USB.
94
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,639
- Copy the raw file to the drive.
- Copy the raw file,
95
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,598
- and I'll take it down to control?
- Run it to the control room.
96
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,911
I'm right behind you.
97
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,835
So as we mentioned, there are thousands
currently outside of state TV and parliament
98
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,071
and a call for 25...
99
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,516
There's a group of protesters
headed toward Heliopolis.
100
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:56,829
Ask him if he knows anything
101
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,032
about the protesters
heading towards the presidential palace.
102
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,918
We're getting information about protesters
103
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,435
heading towards the presidential palace
in Heliopolis.
104
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,159
I don't know anything about that.
105
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,880
- 'Cause you're in the Cairo Radisson.
- Does he look happy about that?
106
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,032
It's hard for me to tell from the incredibly
high-resolution pictures we're getting.
107
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,236
I'm as frustrated as you are, Don,
108
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,880
but I'm not sending an American journalist
into that protest.
109
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,713
Trust me.
I'm an American journalist.
110
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,679
That's the Walker press conference
and the teachers in Appleton unrendered.
111
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,594
- Got it.
- I didn't trip over anything on the way.
112
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:24,716
Oh!
113
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,634
- Sorry. Oh, my God. I'm sorry.
- Are you kidding me?
114
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,473
- Sorry.
- Raw file?
115
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,477
Let's pivot now.
116
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,552
All right, Elliot Hirsch reporting from Cairo.
117
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,393
- We'll be coming back to you, Elliot.
- Why?
118
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,517
...an unexpected move by Mubarak...
119
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:39,916
Where are you going?
120
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,071
I'm gonna find someone who's on the ground.
121
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,436
What is shocking is to hear
an American governor
122
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,318
threaten to call up the National Guard.
123
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,080
But that's just what Scott Walker,
124
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,119
the commander in chief
of the Wisconsin National Guard, did today
125
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,635
in defending
his Wisconsin Budget Repair Bill.
126
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,633
Anyone with "producer" in their title,
conference room.
127
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,598
- Sloan.
- I'm not a producer.
128
00:06:58,680 --> 00:06:59,796
I need you.
Can you wait a minute?
129
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:00,996
I was this close.
130
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,117
You know I'd have had
security stop you downstairs.
131
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,520
- I know.
- I'll be just a couple of minutes.
132
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,798
Okay, but sometimes you ask me to wait,
and then you forget that you did,
133
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,270
and you call me from home at 11:00
and say sorry.
134
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,919
- How many times has that happened?
- Twice.
135
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,276
Well, I really was sorry.
136
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,113
I'll sit and watch TV.
137
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,350
Does anyone know where there's a TV?
138
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,478
- Honey, I'm sorry. I need 20 minutes.
- I can see.
139
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,029
- Is Egypt still a country?
- Yeah, it's just a new one.
140
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,589
I happen to be an Egyptologist
if you want me on tomorrow.
141
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,319
Since when are you an Egyptologist?
142
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,675
I can be one by tomorrow.
143
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,951
Go to Hang Chews, get a drink,
and I'll meet you there.
144
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,190
Yes, boss.
145
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,440
- Herb.
- Yes, ma'am?
146
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,752
We were 17 seconds heavy on Bernanke,
which meant we had to squeeze...
147
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,878
- Wait, wait. Everybody watch this.
- There's nothing to watch.
148
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,031
- She has to subtract with her fingers.
- I don't have to.
149
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,271
We were 17 seconds heavy on Bernanke,
150
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,199
which means we had
to squeeze Bill Kristol down to what?
151
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,195
2:13.
152
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,954
And Will took tap dancing lessons
when he was 11.
153
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,198
And MacKenzie thought This Old House
was working on the same house every week.
154
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,431
Everyone in the conference room.
And that was reasonable.
155
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,273
It took six months to build the city of Dubai.
156
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,353
You think they were renovating
the same mid-century colonial for 15 years?
157
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:09,476
Let's go.
158
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,119
How many kitchens
did you think that house had?
159
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,397
That'll do. Let's get serious.
160
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,791
I'll begin by saying that Will cries
when he watches the movie Rudy.
161
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:18,953
- No, I don't.
- Cries like an onion.
162
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,317
Onions make you cry.
They don't themselves experience emotion.
163
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,357
The way you experience emotion
when you watch Rudy.
164
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,153
One scene, one moment, once in a while.
165
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,515
- The jersey scene?
- Yes.
166
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,829
Everybody cries at the jersey scene.
167
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,639
- Jim?
- I never saw it.
168
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,279
- You haven't seen Rudy?
- Uh-oh.
169
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,670
What were you doing when everyone else
your age was living their lives?
170
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,956
- My homework.
- "My homework."
171
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,512
I didn't think I'd be the only one to say that.
I thought I'd have the safety of a mob.
172
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,910
Listen up, 'cause it's
Rudy's last chance to dress for a game.
173
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,037
- I shouldn't have started this.
- Well, you did.
174
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,510
NCAA rules only allow a certain number
of players to be in uniform.
175
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,990
And every time the list goes up,
Rudy's name is left off it.
176
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,198
And the list for the last game goes up,
and Rudy's name is left off it again.
177
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,714
Four years of futility.
178
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,359
First, he's gotta make the grades
to get in to the school.
179
00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,635
Then he's got to make the practice squad.
180
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,712
And he's getting creamed
by guys twice his size.
181
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,632
But he doesn't care,
because it's all about the team.
182
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,077
And all he wants is to just once
to be on the list to dress for a game.
183
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,153
And it's the last game of his last year
of college, and he's not on the list.
184
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,720
- So one by one...
- Here it is.
185
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,077
...the players come to the coach's office
and put their jerseys down on the desk.
186
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,238
- And say, "Coach..."
- "I want to take a shower with Rudy."
187
00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:20,399
- No, they don't.
188
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,075
They walk in one by one,
put their jerseys on the desk,
189
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,959
and say, "Coach, I want Rudy
to take my place on Saturday."
190
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,477
And there's a whole line
snaking out of the coach's office
191
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:31,233
of players holding their jerseys.
192
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,676
- Jim, your forehead is bleeding.
- It is.
193
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,190
- I accidentally hit him with a door.
- Twice.
194
00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:38,552
- Move your hair out of the way.
195
00:09:38,680 --> 00:09:40,672
- It is bleeding.
- Could you grab the first aid kit?
196
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:41,876
- Yeah.
- I'm fine.
197
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,390
- Where's Don?
- I don't know.
198
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,477
I saw him slip out after Elliot's segment.
199
00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:46,914
Well, that's what
I want to talk about.
200
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,232
We're 18 days into this, and I'm sick
of pulling pool feed from the wires.
201
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,840
I've seen the same footage we're using
202
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,276
licensed to NBC three times
in the last two hours.
203
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:55,953
Nilesat keeps popping on and off.
204
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,475
And mostly,
we can't cover this from a hotel room.
205
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:00,995
- We need someone on the ground.
- It's too dangerous on the ground.
206
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:02,952
- For an American.
- You want to get a stringer?
207
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:04,753
Someone local.
Someone who can blend in with the crowd.
208
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,309
Someone who's credible
with both us and the protesters.
209
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,950
And someone who can shoot,
and cut, and knows to check audio.
210
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,032
You live on the Internet.
Have you been tracking anyone?
211
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,156
I absolutely have the guy.
212
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:20,475
Excuse us.
213
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,592
Do you know what you're... Ow.
214
00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:33,909
Do you know what you're doing? Ow.
215
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,115
- I could have been a doctor.
- What happened?
216
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,118
Well, I didn't go to medical school
or anything.
217
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,390
Okay.
218
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,158
It's another TMI! story,
and it'll be picked up by Page Six.
219
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,436
- How many different ways...
- It's online today and in print tomorrow.
220
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,989
How many different ways do I have to say
I'm not gonna play on that court?
221
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,151
- We have to engage this time.
- What does it say?
222
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,390
Did you know that your boy...
223
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,234
Did you know that Wade Campbell
is thinking about running for Congress?
224
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,596
Yeah, he's thinking about it,
but not more than that.
225
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:00,832
Yes, more than that. He's had meetings
with senior staff of the DCCC.
226
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,832
They're recruiting him
for Anthony Weiner's seat.
227
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,752
Anthony Weiner's
keeping Anthony Weiner's seat.
228
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,309
- Not if he runs for mayor.
- I didn't know that.
229
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,312
You've had Wade on the show
five times in six weeks.
230
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:10,516
What's this story gonna be?
231
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,559
It's gonna be that you're trying
to get your boyfriend elected to Congress.
232
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,597
What do you think it's gonna be?
233
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,519
When you put it like that, I can see that
that's what it could look like, but...
234
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,876
- That's what it does look like.
- He won't be on the show anymore.
235
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,271
Guys, according
to Google Trends Volume Index,
236
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,159
since New Year's Eve,
the search term "Will McAvoy"
237
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,916
has spiked 35 times its average frequency
over the last three years.
238
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,960
In less than six weeks, there have been
nine negative mentions in Page Six and TMI!
239
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:38,997
How many of their readers
do you think are our viewers?
240
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,756
Those articles have been referenced
or backlinked in over 800,000 websites.
241
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,160
- Jesus!
- Yeah.
242
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:45,276
There are 800,000 websites?
243
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,670
It's a daily distraction
from what we're trying to do here.
244
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,320
- First, it was Will's dating disasters.
- I'm a great date.
245
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,040
Now, we're playing it fast and loose
with ethics.
246
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:54,998
That's only what it looks like.
247
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,560
What else matters?
248
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,757
We're getting eaten alive
by our own tabloid life.
249
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,355
Come on, chief, it's Mac.
She's annoyingly ethical.
250
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,592
- Thank you.
- Well, congratulations.
251
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,791
You're now a boldfaced name. You're in play.
252
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,190
- Anything you do...
- I understand.
253
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,435
Come on.
254
00:12:17,560 --> 00:12:19,199
How did you not know he was talking...
255
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,273
He never told me.
You can't think I used you to raise his profile.
256
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,760
I know for sure you didn't use me.
257
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,473
He used me.
258
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:32,995
Hey, you know what? Seriously.
259
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,072
Don't assume anything.
He seems like a good guy.
260
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,910
Plus, nobody in his right mind
would risk losing you.
261
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,354
Come on.
262
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,680
Who's the stringer you've got?
263
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,638
I've been following
his Twitter feed and YouTube posts.
264
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,110
- He goes by the name Amen.
- A-M-E-N?
265
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,634
- Like praise the Lord?
- That's how it's spelled.
266
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,871
But it means "the hidden one"
in ancient Egyptian.
267
00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,953
He's got a following including Richard Engel
268
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:04,034
who says he's solid, straightforward,
and fearless in the face of all the chaos.
269
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,395
It's a nice endorsement from Engel,
270
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:06,960
but I don't know
about using someone I don't know.
271
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,872
I know him. He's just like me.
272
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,872
- He is me.
- What do you mean?
273
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,318
Our fathers were both mechanics.
Not because it was their dream job,
274
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,160
but because they knew
there was always work for mechanics.
275
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:20,640
- Neal.
- We're both the eldest son
276
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,316
and have been taking care of our siblings
for most our lives.
277
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:29,634
Neither of us will ever get a college degree.
We're both idealistic about the Internet.
278
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:31,759
Keep talking.
279
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,633
- I was on one of the trains.
- 7/7?
280
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:48,000
I was going to visit my aunt,
and the train had just left Liverpool Street,
281
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,470
and I was half asleep
when the bomb exploded.
282
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:51,750
What did you see?
283
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,752
The car filled with smoke,
people screaming, crying.
284
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,879
Praying.
285
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,874
Finally, an Underground worker
in an orange vest got to us
286
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,316
and started leading us
up the tunnel into King's Cross.
287
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,153
And I pulled my cell phone out to call my dad.
288
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,357
- There was no service.
- Right.
289
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,955
- So you started filming it instead.
- Yeah.
290
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,192
And I got out,
291
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,920
and, you know, I uploaded it,
and I sent it to the news stations.
292
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,198
You knew then
you weren't going to be a mechanic.
293
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:27,714
- Yeah.
- He's Rudy.
294
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,440
- Not everything is Rudy.
- I know not everything is Rudy.
295
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,796
Forget it.
Some people just don't understand Rudy.
296
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,793
Just me, and Rudy, and Neal,
and the guy Neal found in Cairo.
297
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,075
- Amen.
- Thank you.
298
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:39,873
No, his name is Amen.
299
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,634
And you can trust him.
He's gonna come through.
300
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:48,480
What kind of equipment does he have?
301
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,519
A Kodak Zi8 HD handheld and a laptop.
302
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:52,716
- You can find him?
- Yes.
303
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,632
- How will we get the signal?
- Why can't he use our uplink?
304
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,234
- We'd need him mobile.
- There's still the Internet.
305
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:57,913
There's been no Internet since the 27th.
306
00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,394
Not from the four major ISPs,
307
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,233
but there's a smaller provider
called the Noor Group,
308
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,438
and their main client is the Egyptian
Stock Exchange. They can't shut that down.
309
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,796
Are you saying
there's still working Internet in Egypt?
310
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,758
Noor Group has 83 live routes
311
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,674
with successful pings
on international inbound transit.
312
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,275
Are you saying
there's still working Internet in Egypt?
313
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,555
- Yes.
- Will.
314
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:17,756
Yeah?
315
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,036
- I need you to fill in at 10:00.
- What happened?
316
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,000
Elliot left his hotel. He went down
to the street, and he got beaten up.
317
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,156
What's his condition?
318
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,438
He's got a couple broken ribs, a broken arm,
and cuts and bruises around his face.
319
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,910
- He got beaten with a rock.
- Get him home.
320
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,515
- That's happening.
- What the hell was he doing on the street?
321
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:35,749
I'm gonna call his wife.
322
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,160
- I'll do it.
- No.
323
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,197
- Don.
- Charlie, let him do it.
324
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,070
Right away, you say he's fine,
and he's on his way home.
325
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,959
- Yeah.
- She doesn't need to know about the rock.
326
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,440
What the hell was Elliot thinking?
327
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,477
He was thinking, "Get the story."
328
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,793
- Hey.
- Hey.
329
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,633
What are you still doing here?
330
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,189
Right. Yes. Come with me.
331
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,032
- I just heard about Elliot.
- He'll be okay.
332
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,077
- You're sure?
- No internal injuries.
333
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,435
Thank God.
334
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,594
A few months ago, I agreed to appear
on a panel at the Paley Center called
335
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,354
Is TV News Equipped to Cover the Economy?
336
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,671
- Excellent subject.
- I think so, but here's the thing.
337
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,480
I'm not equipped to cover the economy.
I don't know anything about economics.
338
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,155
I'm sure they're not expecting you
to be an economist. You're a producer.
339
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,199
Yeah, but what I'm saying is
I don't know anything about the economy.
340
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,078
Nothing. I never studied it in school.
341
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,073
I never read the business section.
I never reported economic news.
342
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,560
You've been producing economic news.
343
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,120
We've been doing five minutes a night
for months.
344
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,238
Yeah, I just set aside a five-minute block
and let you and Will go at it.
345
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,312
- You've been approving the subjects.
- I trust you.
346
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:40,880
What does that mean?
347
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,077
I pretend to read what you give me,
and then I nod.
348
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,879
Okay, have you been listening
during the show?
349
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,758
- I have been listening very closely.
- And?
350
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,355
- I do not understand a word you're saying.
- Kenzie!
351
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,636
Can we save the scolding, Thomas Friedman?
352
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,518
- Do you mean Paul Krugman?
- Which one's the economist?
353
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:54,875
- Paul Krugman.
- Then that's who I meant.
354
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,998
I just need you to teach me
a couple of things to say
355
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,237
that'll make it look like I know something.
356
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,913
How long did it take you
to know what you know?
357
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,680
College, grad school, doctorate,
post-doctorate,
358
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,071
practical experience, 15 years.
When's the panel?
359
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:09,719
- Tuesday. Morning.
- Okay.
360
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,593
How about I give you three things
you can write on your hand?
361
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:12,830
No, I want to know this.
362
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,639
I think that a lot of what's going on
in the world
363
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,513
- has to do with the economy.
- You may be on to something.
364
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,832
- It's not like I need to know everything.
- You'll be in no danger of that.
365
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,354
- Joke well crafted.
- Thank you.
366
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:22,556
- Go home.
- Yep.
367
00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:49,076
Welcome back to ACN Morning
368
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,197
where it's 22 minutes past the hour
on this cold New York...
369
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,398
- Very cold.
- Very cold February 11th in New York.
370
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,995
Coming up, we go behind the scenes
of the Jennifer Aniston comedy,
371
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:58,275
Just Go with It, hitting theaters today.
372
00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:00,750
And later, we'll be live
at the Cineplex just up the street
373
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,150
where moviegoers
are braving freezing temperatures
374
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,359
just to be the very first to watch
Justin Bieber: Never Say Never.
375
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:08,550
Do you have Bieber Fever?
376
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,996
I'm not ashamed to say
I do have Bieber Fever.
377
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,152
- But right now, it's time to play a round of...
- "What Caught My Eye."
378
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,432
I'll tell you what caught my eye this morning.
It was an item about our own house.
379
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,116
TMI! is reporting online
that News Night may be playing favorites
380
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,991
by boosting the profile of the boyfriend
of its executive producer, MacKenzie McHale.
381
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,595
- Did you see that?
- I did, but we don't know the facts about that.
382
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,957
Well, the facts are MacKenzie McHale
is the executive producer of News Night.
383
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,431
Wade Campbell is her boyfriend.
Wade's got political ambitions.
384
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,113
And he's turned up as a guest on the show,
385
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,079
so the piece says,
five times in the last six weeks or so.
386
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,958
What do you think, ethical?
387
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,430
Millie, put me through
to the day side control room.
388
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,870
I'll tell you what makes this
even a little more complicated.
389
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,236
- Tony.
- MacKenzie McHale and Will McAvoy
390
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,800
used to be a couple.
391
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,952
So things have to be a little tense
on the prime time side.
392
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,157
Ask me how I know they were a couple,
'cause this is a wild story.
393
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,509
- I know how you know.
- The email.
394
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,832
MacKenzie McHale sent a mass email
to every employee of AWM
395
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,310
- saying that she had cheated on Will.
- Let's move on.
396
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,153
We've all done that, right?
I don't mean cheated.
397
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:06,674
I mean we've all hit the wrong key...
398
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,480
This is Charlie Skinner.
Put me right in his fucking ear.
399
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,756
So we've got an anchor
and an executive producer
400
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:12,910
who used to be involved...
401
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,438
Hi. You've got 10 seconds
to take your show gracefully to commercial,
402
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:22,000
or, so help me Hannah, you're not going
to be sitting in that chair when we come back.
403
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,992
Well, you get the picture.
404
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,199
We're gonna take a break
and come back after the break.
405
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,078
This is ACN Morning.
406
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,240
Very graceful.
407
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,591
She really wasn't ashamed
to say she had Bieber Fever?
408
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,189
It's all right.
409
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:58,320
Happy Valentine's Day.
410
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,034
Oh, wow.
411
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,312
I didn't... I didn't realize
it was Valentine's Day.
412
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,754
And that people in the office gave...
413
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,720
No, Valentine's Day is Monday, not today.
And these aren't for you. They're from you.
414
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,200
I am more confused than I was before.
415
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,114
Don planned a beautiful night for us
on Monday.
416
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,520
- You and me?
- Yes.
417
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,557
Don planned a romantic evening
for you and me.
418
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,552
- Me and him.
- That makes more sense.
419
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:20,994
And I don't want it to be ruined by Lisa,
420
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,312
who will ruin it if she doesn't have
a romantic Valentine's Day.
421
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,040
Last year, her boyfriend forgot
it was Valentine's Day
422
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,551
and went to a Rangers game with his friends.
She got drunk, made us watch Overboard,
423
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,714
and reviewed every bad Valentine's Day
she's ever had, which was all of them.
424
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,840
Not this year.
You're gonna be like St. Valentine himself.
425
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,877
- St. Valentine actually...
- Focus, nerd.
426
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,759
- Okay.
- Don got us a room at the Four Seasons.
427
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,071
- Me and...
- Nope, still him and me.
428
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,393
The Four Seasons.
The bathtub fills up in less than 60 seconds.
429
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,597
And I don't want Lisa showing up
with a copy of The Notebook
430
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:53,636
saying, "Where's the minibar?"
431
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,758
Yeah, I can't hang out with Lisa
on Valentine's Day.
432
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,355
That's making a pretty strong statement.
433
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,272
Don't screw with me on this,
James Tiberius Harper.
434
00:21:01,360 --> 00:21:02,714
That's not my middle name.
435
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,996
You're thinking of
Captain James Tiberius Kirk.
436
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,480
Do not screw me on this, Jim.
437
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,871
We're not in a relationship.
She calls me at night after work.
438
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,600
We talk for a minute, and then she says,
"Should I come over?"
439
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:13,955
And what am I supposed to say?
440
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,111
- You say, "Yes."
- I say, "Yes."
441
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:21,150
If you're dating someone on February 14th,
you take them out on February 14th.
442
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,118
What's February 14th?
443
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,513
- Valentine's Day.
- Yes.
444
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:26,954
Here's your itinerary.
445
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,475
You made reservations
at her favorite restaurant, Dell'anima.
446
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,240
You got her a horse charm
for her charm bracelet.
447
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,757
This is a bottle of her favorite wine.
And this is some slutty lingerie
448
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,275
for whatever disgusting thing
you guys do later.
449
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,392
And the 60-second bathtub is for hygiene?
450
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,153
You can't have sex in a bathtub.
It doesn't work.
451
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,709
Yes, it does. You just have to slip yourself...
452
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,200
- Thank you.
- I'd like to hear more.
453
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:47,430
- Shut up!
- Okay.
454
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,718
Here is her card.
And here is what you'll write on it.
455
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:55,829
"This has been the best month of my life.
You are beautiful, talented, and the most..."
456
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,553
Are you out of your mind?
457
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,552
- We've been on four dates.
- Look at me.
458
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:00,835
I already am.
459
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:06,632
Do not screw me on this, Jim.
460
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,717
You pick her up at 9:30.
461
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,120
Let's go.
462
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,000
He's online.
463
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,831
- Amen?
- Yes?
464
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,869
I'm Neal Sampat,
Atlantis Cable News in New York.
465
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,271
- Did we communicate about an hour ago?
- Yes, we did.
466
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,671
What did I say my favorite kind of pizza was?
467
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,438
Plain pizza. Cheese. You're a purist.
468
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,432
It's true.
469
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,511
Amen, we'd like to pay you
to be our reporter on the ground.
470
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,353
You're obviously able to move around
out there.
471
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,033
Your quotes and sources all check out.
472
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:51,352
You're asking great questions,
and you're posting great film.
473
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,909
- Do we have a deal?
- Yes, we have a deal.
474
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,320
Good.
475
00:22:56,120 --> 00:22:59,113
This is our executive producer.
That's the boss.
476
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,874
Her name is MacKenzie McHale.
477
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,759
Amen, thanks so much
for agreeing to help us.
478
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,593
Thank you for broadcasting this.
479
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:11,391
We go on the air at 3:00 a.m. your time,
and you'll be part of the top story.
480
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,871
I want you to report
from the middle of Tahrir Square.
481
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,239
But first, we need interviews.
482
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,714
We need you to go to the palace
and find out who's in charge.
483
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,550
- Can you do that?
- Yes, ma'am.
484
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,800
We need you to talk
to a member of the military
485
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,951
and see what their marching orders are.
486
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,111
- Can you do that?
- Yes, ma'am.
487
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,910
Do you have a BeachTek with an XLR adapter
so you can go wireless?
488
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,834
I have a handheld directional,
but it works pretty well.
489
00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:40,952
Okay, but you have to check your levels.
490
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,191
We'll have a problem
with over-modulated sound.
491
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,999
- Got it.
- We're gonna need any B-roll
492
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,400
you shot last night.
493
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,915
Can you compress it into a YouSendit file?
494
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,834
It should be downloading on your computer.
495
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,033
It is. Thank you.
496
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,474
- Okay, one last thing.
- Yes?
497
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,231
We need you to take off your bandana.
498
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,030
We have to ID you with your real name,
first and last.
499
00:24:06,120 --> 00:24:07,793
Do you understand?
500
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,360
That's necessary?
501
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:14,399
The report won't have credibility
coming from an anonymous reporter.
502
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,679
Amen, every news outlet in the world
is gonna be there.
503
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,639
But you'll be the first Egyptian reporter
on an American network
504
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,794
to describe what it's like living through
this Berlin Wall moment for the Middle East.
505
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,237
This is history,
and you'll never forget tonight.
506
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,232
Yes, of course. You're right.
507
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,280
My name is Salim. Kahlid Salim.
508
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,471
Kahlid, let's go through
some technical details.
509
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:05,074
- First of all, how do you spell Kahlid?
- K-A-H-L...
510
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,837
Are you gonna be nervous about Leona
if I look into the Koch brothers on Wisconsin?
511
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,877
Are you gonna be nervous
about more tabloid stories?
512
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,110
Have I ever been nervous
513
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,993
- about the tabloid stories?
- You?
514
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,356
Would it make life easier for everyone
if I quietly resigned?
515
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:18,920
- No.
- No, and when was the last time
516
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,071
- you quietly did anything?
- I can be quiet.
517
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,914
For instance, there was the time you sent
an email to 138,000 people.
518
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,952
I sent it to 112 people.
519
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:29,397
- And then it got sent to...
- Will the two of you shut up?
520
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,110
This is exactly the kind of story
Leona doesn't want us to chase, so...
521
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,840
- Let's chase it as hard as we can?
- Yeah.
522
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,917
Do me a favor and see if there's a connection
523
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,992
between the Koch brothers
and Citizens United.
524
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,276
- I'm way ahead of you.
- How?
525
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:49,240
Well, no, I'm exactly where you are.
It's just an expression.
526
00:25:49,360 --> 00:25:53,070
Usually it takes decades, even centuries,
for us to see the world change.
527
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,034
But in the Middle East,
the world has changed in seven weeks.
528
00:25:56,120 --> 00:25:59,909
January 25th, protesters converged
on Cairo's Tahrir Square
529
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,674
demanding the resignation
of President Hosni Mubarak,
530
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,877
who'd ruled Egypt for 30 years.
531
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,960
Last night, Mubarak enraged
the Egyptian people by refusing to resign.
532
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,431
But just 24 hours later,
he bowed to the will of the people
533
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,194
and announced the following
through his vice president, Omar Suleiman.
534
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:16,350
Roll two, take it.
535
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,514
Dear citizens of these difficult times...
536
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,760
You're a handsome young man, Kahlid.
537
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,593
- How are you feeling?
- Good.
538
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,594
Here's Tahrir Square
just moments later.
539
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:28,796
Roll three. Take it.
540
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,640
They're chanting "Egypt is free.
You're an Egyptian. Lift up your head."
541
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,316
For more, we're going live now to Cairo
542
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,632
where our reporter,
Kahlid Salim, is standing by.
543
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:46,995
Good morning, Kahlid.
544
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,992
It is a good morning.
545
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:50,196
Thirty seconds back.
546
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:51,994
- Will.
- Yeah?
547
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,912
I wanted to mention something to you
just for what it's worth.
548
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,832
- What?
- I used to work at TMI!
549
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,593
There was a rumor,
it was a little more than rumor,
550
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,871
that some of the guys at TMI!
would take protection money.
551
00:26:59,960 --> 00:27:01,030
What are you talking about?
552
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,439
You give them money,
and your name stays out.
553
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,637
You just get in touch with Nina Howard,
pay her what she wants...
554
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,154
- Are you out of your mind?
- Just mentioning it.
555
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:08,879
They took protection money at TMI!?
556
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:10,913
In three, two...
557
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,754
Welcome back.
We go from Cairo to Madison, Wisconsin,
558
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,116
where thousands of people
are converging on the statehouse
559
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,034
to protest Governor Scott Walker's
proposed budget bill.
560
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,032
There it is. Can you see us?
561
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,117
- Yes.
- That was real good work.
562
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,591
Thank you. I've got some excellent footage
of the disinfectant brigades.
563
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,478
What are the disinfectant brigades?
564
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,473
Most of Tahrir
is old ladies sweeping up right now.
565
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:36,789
The kids changed the country,
566
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,951
then they brought in the moms
to clean up after.
567
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,191
The whole place smells like Lysol.
568
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,431
And they call it a nonviolent revolution.
569
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,432
I wouldn't say it was a revolution.
570
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,716
- Why's that?
- The army's still in charge.
571
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:52,511
So I suppose I'd call it a military coup.
But we'll get there.
572
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,069
For the moment,
we traded an 82-year-old dictator
573
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,358
for a 79-year-old field marshal
who's been called Mubarak's poodle.
574
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,511
Who called him Mubarak's poodle?
575
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,674
Your State Department
in emails released by WikiLeaks.
576
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,877
- WikiLeaks.
- The army's not the good guys?
577
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,636
I think that's where to go with the story.
Will there be free and fair elections?
578
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,518
Will the army protect pro-Mubarak thugs
579
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,115
who killed hundreds
in the last two and a half weeks?
580
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:20,355
I was in Tahrir the night they killed 91.
Old men and children beaten and shot.
581
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,352
Okay, brother, where do you want to go next?
582
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,193
The Ministry of the Interior.
583
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,478
If Mubarak wanted to throw you in a hole,
that was it.
584
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,080
The army's got it cordoned off,
585
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,072
and they're burning documents
in the courtyard.
586
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,356
- That's a government building.
- He's all right.
587
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,472
Kahlid, you get us film
of the army burning evidence,
588
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,758
and I'll personally come down there
with a truckload of Lemon Pledge.
589
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:40,952
I won't let you down with this.
590
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,874
You understand the difference between
a commercial bank and an investment bank?
591
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,360
- Of course.
- Kenzie?
592
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,432
- No.
- Investment banks are gamblers.
593
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,877
Commercial banks are where you have
a savings account and a checking account.
594
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:52,872
- Can you balance your checkbook?
- Yes.
595
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,150
- Kenzie?
- No.
596
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,950
All right, so after the Great Depression,
Congress wanted to put a firewall
597
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,350
between the investment banks
and the commercial banks.
598
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,194
They wanted to make sure
that Wall Street could melt to the ground,
599
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,237
and the commercial banks
wouldn't be touched.
600
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,710
They passed a law, the Glass-Steagall Act.
601
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,679
Now you could be Gordon Gekko
or George Bailey,
602
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,150
- but you couldn't be both.
603
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,113
You with me?
604
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,072
I can't seem to stop hurting Will.
605
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,512
This morning was just fucked up.
606
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,196
Day side at this place just resents prime time,
and that's all that was.
607
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,953
- Is Will mad at you?
- No.
608
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,635
That probably makes you feel worse.
609
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,112
And my saying that
just then probably makes you feel
610
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,759
a lot worse than you did
a couple seconds ago.
611
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,559
Do you have any human knowledge?
612
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,915
I have been told I do not.
613
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:41,990
Let's keep going.
614
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,117
I can't help but think
this is all partially my fault.
615
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,113
I'm the one who didn't believe you when
you told me that Will didn't cheat on you,
616
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,714
- and that's why you...
- I had to send the email, right.
617
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:53,955
Don't be ridiculous. It's completely your fault.
It's so unbelievably your... No.
618
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,600
I am the closest thing to a female friend
that you have, right?
619
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,672
Wait, are you saying
that I don't have female friends,
620
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,114
or that you're not entirely female?
621
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:01,600
- Which do you think?
- The first.
622
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,434
Yes. So what happened,
and why can't it be fixed?
623
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,760
What happened was
I was with a guy for a long time
624
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,958
who wasn't half the man that Will is,
and he dumped me.
625
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,515
- Later I started seeing Will.
- I can fill in the rest of the story.
626
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,796
- Why can't it be fixed?
- Listen, do you mind if we just talk...
627
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,640
- Yeah, Glass-Steagall.
- The firewall, it worked?
628
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,396
It helped lead to the largest sustained period
of economic growth in US history,
629
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,917
a 60-year expansion of the middle class,
the largest increase in productivity,
630
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,356
and the largest increase in median income.
631
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,830
We also won World War II,
put a man on the moon
632
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,116
and a computer in everyone's lap.
633
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:37,520
And you know what happened next?
634
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,399
We cheated on the perfect guy
with a guy who dumped us?
635
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,194
Yes. We repealed Glass-Steagall.
636
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,597
Why can't it be fixed?
637
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,355
Hey, I've got to write something
on a Valentine's card.
638
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,035
You're used to deceiving women.
What would you write...
639
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,873
- I can't find Kahlid.
- What do you mean?
640
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:04,952
I haven't heard from him
since Saturday night his time,
641
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,191
and he hasn't updated his Twitter
or Facebook.
642
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,034
- Have you tried contacting...
- All his contacts, Facebook, YouTube.
643
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,156
No one's heard from him.
644
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,118
Guys, Elliot Hirsch.
645
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,354
Thank you.
646
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,949
I'm fine, really.
647
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,831
And thanks, everyone,
for the calls, and the emails, and the flowers.
648
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,470
And the stripper
dressed as a pro-Mubarak security officer.
649
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,394
You wouldn't think
they'd have that outfit in storage.
650
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,191
- Come on.
- Where are we going?
651
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,919
- Charlie.
- Hang on.
652
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,957
Welcome back, Elliot.
653
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:42,713
- Everyone's really happy you're all right.
- Thanks, man.
654
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,520
The coverage from the stringer,
it was great Friday night.
655
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,557
- They told me that was you.
- Yeah.
656
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,712
But I can't find him. It's been about 36 hours.
657
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,231
- Did you try...
- I've tried everything.
658
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,358
All right, he's got our satellite phone.
The one the two of us were using.
659
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,035
You can get the provider to run a GPS trace
to tell you where the phone is.
660
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:01,839
Good. Thank you.
661
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,515
Did someone here order a fascist thug?
662
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,796
No, we did this already.
663
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,876
- He's home.
- Thank you, God.
664
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,958
- I can't hug you, right?
- No, my ribs.
665
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,679
All right.
666
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,190
- Elliot.
- Yes, sir?
667
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,670
- Don't ever fucking do that again.
- Yes, sir.
668
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:25,479
Will filled in Friday night.
669
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,597
I'll have Becky fill in tonight
and until you're ready to...
670
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,672
No, that's why we're here.
I want him on the air tonight.
671
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,395
- And shoot him from the neck down?
- No, we show what's going on.
672
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,358
- Journalists are getting beaten up.
- I know, but...
673
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,399
He took the lead for ACN
on the biggest international story in a decade.
674
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,312
- You can't take him off.
- It'll just be for a week or so.
675
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,834
- Just till my face heals...
- You don't want to go on?
676
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,470
- Of course I want to go on, but...
- Then that's it.
677
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,279
This is a great reporter
who brought us a great story.
678
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,551
I didn't bring any story.
I got beaten up before I had a chance...
679
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:49,756
That's the story.
680
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,751
No, I didn't mean that that's the story.
681
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,752
I meant that
yes, I know that we're not the story.
682
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,480
But Jesus, God damn it,
nobody's ever gonna know that he...
683
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,233
- We know.
- That's not good enough.
684
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,879
Yes, it is.
685
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,719
Fine. And the media,
we're all effete, elitist assholes.
686
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,800
We're blow-dried clowns
sitting in an ivory tower. Just look.
687
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:14,953
You're benched.
688
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,952
- Will.
- Yeah?
689
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,520
I need to talk to you.
690
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,676
First, Maria Guerrero wanted me
to relay a message that she feels terrible.
691
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,160
Why isn't she saying that herself?
692
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,233
- She's terrified of you.
- That's fair.
693
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,710
Look, Tony thinks prime time looks down
their nose at day side.
694
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,360
- That's all that was about.
- Well, he really turned me around.
695
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,353
Tell Maria I saw her try to stop it,
and I appreciate it.
696
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:42,840
I will, but I came here to tell you
697
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,673
that Nina Howard is getting ready
to run another piece.
698
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,594
I don't care.
Nina can write whatever she wants about me.
699
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,758
It's about Mac.
700
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,110
What is she writing?
701
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,955
Did she almost get her crew killed
during an incident in Pakistan?
702
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:00,959
You've got her number?
703
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:04,396
This really works?
704
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,637
If it were me, I'd try it.
705
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,551
We're in the conference room.
706
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,950
Gary, why don't you tell your friends
on day side
707
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,271
that if they've got any questions
about MacKenzie's ethics,
708
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,431
- they can come see me?
- Yeah.
709
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,916
- Get your head looked at?
- Just needed a couple stitches.
710
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,354
The answer is yes, the Koch brothers
had money in Citizens United.
711
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,831
A number of Koch-funded groups
submitted amicus briefs to the court,
712
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,116
including the Cato Institute,
which the Kochs funded.
713
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,352
They submitted a brief calling
for unfettered corporate speech.
714
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,837
So did the Institute for Justice,
also funded by the Kochs.
715
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:55,275
Their brief said that finance laws prohibiting
unlimited corporate contributions
716
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,956
trumped the First Amendment.
And after the court ruled in their favor,
717
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,670
these groups spent a lot of money
to oppose efforts to provide transparency.
718
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,480
Here's an interview
with David Koch and his lawyer.
719
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,438
Koch's asked about Citizens United,
720
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,273
and he seems to pretend
he's never heard of it.
721
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,194
Koch is in the foreground
in the gray herringbone coat.
722
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,155
What do you think
of Citizens United?
723
00:35:14,240 --> 00:35:15,799
Has it helped your influence?
724
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,314
Citizens United?
725
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:21,680
What do you think
of Citizens United?
726
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,080
Has it helped your influence?
727
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,514
Citizens United?
728
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,709
One more time.
729
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,474
What do you think of Citizens United?
Has it helped your influence?
730
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,472
Citizens United?
731
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,669
Justices Thomas and Scalia
have both been frequent guests of the Kochs.
732
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:44,552
And between 2003 and 2007,
Virginia Thomas, wife of Justice Thomas,
733
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:49,999
was paid $686,589
by the Heritage Foundation,
734
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,276
which was funded by David and Charles Koch.
735
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:56,673
For whatever reason,
Justice Thomas didn't disclose the $686,000
736
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,360
on his Supreme Court
financial disclosure form.
737
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,990
Is it very unusual that Scalia and Thomas
didn't recuse themselves from the case?
738
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,357
If they had,
Citizens United would have lost 4-3.
739
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,877
All right, the Citizens United decision
allowed corporations
740
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,998
to donate unlimited amounts of money
to any political candidate
741
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:14,833
without anyone knowing
where the money was coming from.
742
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,153
But it also did the same thing for the unions,
and they knew that.
743
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,920
So wouldn't the next step be
to get rid of the unions?
744
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:23,480
If you're rigging the game, yes.
745
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:25,994
Excuse me. Kahlid's gone.
746
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,191
The satellite service says
his phone isn't giving a signal,
747
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,512
which means it's either destroyed
or very deep underground.
748
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,513
We sent him to get evidence of the army
burning documents. He's been taken.
749
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,672
We have a local security contractor in Cairo.
I'll start with them.
750
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,400
Will, you call your highest contact
at the State Department.
751
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,880
And then call her husband if you have to.
752
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,713
Don, you've got contacts
at the Egyptian embassy.
753
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:45,075
- I used to.
- What do you mean?
754
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:46,514
Their government was just dissolved.
755
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,109
Come on. We put the guy in that place.
756
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,557
- Neal, we're not losing him.
- Jesus.
757
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,597
- Do you have contacts in the Egyptian army?
- I do.
758
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,956
So do I. We can retrace his steps.
759
00:36:58,160 --> 00:36:59,514
Snerdley, have you
heard this?
760
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,718
The Egyptian army
is rounding up foreign journalists.
761
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,838
I mean, even two New York Times reporters
were detained.
762
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,550
Now this is supposed
to make us feel what exactly?
763
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,313
- How are we supposed to feel?
- Neal.
764
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,869
Are we supposed to feel outrage over it?
I don't feel any outrage over it.
765
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,515
Are we supposed to feel anger?
766
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,910
I don't feel any anger over this.
767
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,030
Do we feel happy?
768
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,319
Well, do we feel...
769
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,676
Kind of going like "Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah"?
770
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,077
Do we feel happy?
771
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,231
Well, do we feel...
772
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,515
Kind of going like "Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah"?
773
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:42,590
Oh!
774
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,751
- Neal!
- Hey, hey, hey, hey!
775
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,674
Give me your hand.
Come on, give me your hand.
776
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,199
You broke a couple fingers.
Come on. Come on.
777
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:54,396
- I'm sorry.
778
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:56,914
Let's go.
779
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,160
Corporate legal won't let us work
with security in Cairo.
780
00:38:03,240 --> 00:38:05,277
- Why the hell not?
- They don't want to assume liability
781
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,591
for a freelancer.
They say he can turn around and sue us.
782
00:38:07,720 --> 00:38:09,791
Sue us? He's either a prisoner or dead.
783
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:11,200
Let's talk to Reese.
784
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:12,600
I'm the one of us
who's pissed him off the least.
785
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,273
Let me do the talking.
786
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,997
- He's not in, Don.
- I think he is, Roberta.
787
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,800
- Don.
- Reese, get the fuck out here.
788
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:24,200
Don, he's not in.
789
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,233
Oh, God! Fuck!
790
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:28,993
It's a strong door.
791
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,632
So, do you know where he can be reached?
792
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,110
Ladies and gentlemen, 30 minutes
to air. We are live in 30 minutes.
793
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,431
I'm gonna put someone's head
through a fucking pyramid.
794
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,718
Now get me somebody on the phone who...
Thank you.
795
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,199
- You all right?
- Yeah. It's sprained.
796
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,279
- The shoulder?
- Yeah.
797
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,155
- Donnie...
- I sent him down there.
798
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:16,231
I bullied him into going out on the street,
and they beat him up with a rock.
799
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:18,953
He went out there because I told him to.
800
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,394
I know. Everybody knows.
801
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:26,440
We're all jealous. We wish it was us
with the bruises on our face.
802
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,073
You didn't give him an order.
You gave him permission.
803
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,799
I got him!
804
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,357
The army's got him.
They denied it until they realized
805
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,676
somebody with money was looking for him.
They say that...
806
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:42,877
- A fringe group has him.
- Yeah, but it's them.
807
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,112
- What does the fringe group want?
- A quarter of a million dollars, US.
808
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,398
I'm gonna quietly run this
by some people in private security
809
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,358
just to make sure it checks out,
810
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,673
but, Will, you're the only one who can get
Corporate to make this wire transfer.
811
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,080
You got the information on the transfer?
812
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,720
Nobody has to leave a bag of cash
on top of a mailbox?
813
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,156
No, they want you to wire the money
814
00:40:02,240 --> 00:40:06,359
to a charity
called Intisar Charity Benevolence Fund.
815
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,159
They're practically letting us use PayPal.
816
00:40:08,240 --> 00:40:09,469
A charity in Cairo?
817
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,279
No, a commodities trading fund in Dubai.
818
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,559
Talk to your people,
and I'll deal with Corporate.
819
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,673
- How you feeling?
- I feel great.
820
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:18,989
I'm sorry.
821
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,671
I'm tough on you, and I'm...
822
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:25,960
I'm so sorry.
823
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,549
You couldn't have stopped me.
824
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,352
Thursday night,
it was 75 teachers in Appleton.
825
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:42,434
Tonight, the number of protesters in Madison
is estimated at 30,000.
826
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:46,116
Governor Walker's office is feeding
inside information about their intentions
827
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,840
to friendly groups who in turn are paying
828
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,834
to fill hearing rooms
with supporters of Walker's plan.
829
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,354
Wade's here.
830
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:56,671
He says you haven't returned his calls
or texts,
831
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,434
and he's not leaving until you speak to him.
832
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,791
Have him wait on the terrace.
833
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:05,156
It's about 10 degrees outside.
834
00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:08,790
...the reelected governor
gave $140 million in tax breaks,
835
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,952
is being balanced on the backs
of public sector workers
836
00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:16,319
who organizations like Americans
for Prosperity believe are overpaid.
837
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,312
You deserved a lot better.
838
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,392
We'll let you decide if they're overpaid.
839
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:21,516
I deserved what I got.
840
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:26,629
The low income threshold in the US
is $45,000 a year for a family of four.
841
00:41:26,720 --> 00:41:31,476
Average salary for an employee
of the Health Services Department, $45,805.
842
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,192
Children and Families Agency, $47,810.
843
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:40,672
Workforce Development Agency, $46,074.
844
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,959
And the average salary
for a public school teacher in Wisconsin,
845
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:49,080
$46,390.
846
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,833
Finally. Why'd I have to wait out here?
847
00:41:59,920 --> 00:42:01,798
Because I wanted you to.
848
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,036
I've been calling you all day.
849
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,272
Yeah, when was your first meeting
with the DCCC?
850
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:14,557
- Look, we have to work together on this.
- No, we can't work together.
851
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,950
And because you're not a moron,
you already know that.
852
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,191
Hey, High Road,
853
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,318
were you ever gonna tell me
that you and Will were together?
854
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,551
This was never gonna work, you and me.
855
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,752
You wasted my time,
so I got something out of it.
856
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,400
In this order, leave,
857
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,314
lose the election,
858
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,039
go to hell.
859
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:46,795
She's in the back.
860
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,590
Anyone comes in I don't want to see,
just buzz my BlackBerry.
861
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,391
I want this to stop.
862
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,752
I was rude to you at a party, and I apologize.
863
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,073
Be a bigger narcissist.
864
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:14,230
You think this is happening
865
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,920
'cause you didn't take me home
on New Year's Eve?
866
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,310
Your ex booked her boyfriend five times...
867
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,120
If you called for a comment,
I could have told you that I was the one...
868
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,715
Bullshit you want your ex
dating a congressman.
869
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,872
- She didn't know the DCCC was...
- Says you.
870
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:29,320
- Says her.
- Yeah.
871
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,915
All right, the ethics of Wade
coming on the show,
872
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:33,832
that was fair. You had every right to run that.
873
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,957
But to say that
she almost got someone killed...
874
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,590
I'm running a piece
saying you hired an incompetent EP
875
00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:41,359
because she was your girlfriend,
and she dumped you.
876
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:43,671
I hired the best EP in broadcasting
877
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,831
in spite of her being my ex-girlfriend
who dumped me.
878
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,799
You know,
you guys up there are millionaires...
879
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,759
- I'm the only millionaire up there.
- ...and celebrities.
880
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,071
- I'm the only celebrity up there.
- Not anymore.
881
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:55,879
How does this work?
882
00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:00,720
I'm thinking about investing in a restaurant,
883
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,790
and I'm looking for silent partners.
$50,000 a share.
884
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,714
- $50,000, and I'm a silent partner?
- Yes.
885
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,076
- And you're a silent partner?
- Quiet as a mouse.
886
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,231
- For good?
- You'll have your own table
887
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,277
at the restaurant for life.
888
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:24,920
Hey, Will,
889
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,319
we're journalists.
890
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,837
- I wish you hadn't said that.
- What?
891
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,833
Everything would have been cool if you
hadn't said that. You just talk too much.
892
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,799
You have a problem
with me calling myself a journalist?
893
00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:45,636
Only the elite few who cover stories
nobody cares about get to call themselves...
894
00:44:45,720 --> 00:44:49,236
I've got a guy on my staff got hit
in the head with a glass door Thursday.
895
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,040
His forehead wouldn't stop bleeding,
but he wouldn't go to a doctor,
896
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,396
'cause I got another guy
who got beat up covering Cairo.
897
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,996
And the first guy wouldn't see a doctor
until the second guy saw a doctor.
898
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:02,040
I've got a producer who ran into a locked door
'cause he felt responsible for the second guy.
899
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,716
I've got an 18-year-old kid risking his life
halfway around the world,
900
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,838
and the AP who sent him there
hasn't slept in three days.
901
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:12,470
I've got 20-somethings
who care about teachers in Wisconsin.
902
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,280
I've got a grown woman
who has to subtract with her fingers
903
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,710
staying up all night trying to learn economics
904
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,760
from a PhD who could be making
20 times the money three miles downtown.
905
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,035
They're journalists.
906
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,031
Come after me all you want, Nina.
Come after me every day.
907
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:29,230
Look through my garbage.
908
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,392
Invent things out of thin air.
That's what you're paid for.
909
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,554
But you touch my staff,
and you are walking into a world of hurt.
910
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:42,113
I have an hour of prime time every night,
and I will rededicate my life to ruining yours.
911
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,200
I also want you to send a message
up the chain
912
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,920
of whatever backroom machinery
is driving this
913
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:53,233
that if I so much as smell Leona Lansing's
perfume on any of this,
914
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,837
I'm going to make a meal out of both of you,
and I won't stop until I'm done.
915
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:00,000
Look at me.
916
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,912
And see that I'm dead serious.
917
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,112
Restaurants are bad investments.
918
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,320
Wait 20 minutes before you leave here.
919
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,032
Tough-ass speech.
920
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,153
- But you're not gonna win.
- I don't care.
921
00:46:25,240 --> 00:46:28,392
I'm just a middle-aged man
who never lived up to his potential.
922
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,712
You don't want to be on the wrong end of me
if I ever do.
923
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:33,029
I got the drinks.
924
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,957
1980, Ronald Reagan is elected president,
and the culture of deregulation begins.
925
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,999
What happened to Will?
I haven't seen him around.
926
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,391
- He changed and ran out right after the show.
- Where?
927
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,999
The culture of deregulation culminates
in 1999.
928
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,914
- Glass-Steagall gets repealed.
- And immediately banks start merging.
929
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:56,835
Now, Gordon Gekko can use
George Bailey's bank balance to make bets.
930
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:58,354
Where's James Harper?
931
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:00,558
That's Lisa.
932
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,239
- Oh, my God!
- Oh, my God.
933
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,478
It's Valentine's Day. I forgot to meet her.
934
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,995
James Harper? Nobody?
935
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,640
If he is not here, I will stand here...
936
00:47:11,720 --> 00:47:12,915
- What are you doing?
- Hiding.
937
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,151
- Does this seem like a good plan to you?
- No.
938
00:47:15,240 --> 00:47:16,435
- Get up.
- Please don't make me.
939
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:17,676
- Get up!
940
00:47:19,240 --> 00:47:22,790
But I'm looking for Jim
because he did not come.
941
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:24,872
- Anyone? James?
- Lisa.
942
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,997
I am so sorry. It's been a very chaotic day.
943
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:28,799
Where the fuck have you been?
944
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:32,992
- Like I said, it's been...
- You don't know how to use a phone?
945
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,750
I might have a concussion, but still I'm sorry.
946
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:39,639
You're sorry?
All right, in that case, I totally forgive you
947
00:47:39,720 --> 00:47:41,996
for making me wait alone
in a restaurant for an hour.
948
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:43,594
I appreciate that.
949
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,080
- Unless you're being sarcastic.
- She was.
950
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,389
I thought there was an outside chance...
951
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:47,800
- Did you get any of my messages?
- No.
952
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:49,234
- Wait, are you Lisa?
- Yes.
953
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:50,800
- I got your messages.
- What?
954
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:52,439
We accidentally switched phones again.
955
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:53,954
What happened to marking them
with nail polish?
956
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:55,235
We both did that.
957
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,391
You stood me up on Valentine's Day,
958
00:47:57,520 --> 00:47:59,637
which is 1,000 times worse
than a regular stand up.
959
00:47:59,720 --> 00:48:01,359
- I didn't stand you up.
- Yes, you did.
960
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,712
Yes, I did, but I have presents,
961
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,830
and I wrote you a card.
962
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:12,075
"From the desk of James Harper."
963
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:13,714
- Are you kidding?
- I lost the card.
964
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,314
- You're a jerk.
- No, he's not.
965
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:16,550
- Maggie.
- Lisa, stop.
966
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,154
- You know what?
- Stop!
967
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,313
Jim did everything right here.
968
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,153
Well, he left me alone in a restaurant
for an hour.
969
00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:23,356
- Except that.
- And didn't call.
970
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,477
- And that.
- It would be hard for a casual observer
971
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:27,074
- to tell which side...
- Shut up.
972
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,629
Lisa, he's a very decent guy.
973
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,400
- This isn't anyone's fault.
- It's his.
974
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,520
It's a little bit his,
but mostly it's just a very bad day.
975
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,951
It's Valentine's Day. It's my favorite day.
976
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:41,872
Then pick another day!
977
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,073
Because it's every guy's least favorite day.
978
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:45,913
Everyone's always disappointed.
979
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,913
Valentine's Day is the bully of holidays.
980
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,278
It forces love on people who aren't in love.
981
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:52,589
- Cupid's freakish.
- All right.
982
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:55,752
No, I'm boycotting Valentine's Day
from now on.
983
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:57,354
Who's with me?
984
00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:02,831
I love you every day.
985
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:06,397
Today's just an excuse
to spend the night in a hotel room.
986
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,477
I'm sorry. I was faking it just then.
987
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,831
I think she can still hear you.
988
00:49:15,720 --> 00:49:17,279
I'm sorry.
989
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:20,717
I'm really sorry.
990
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,120
I'm still wearing edible underwear.
991
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:27,270
Well, if I'd known that...
992
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:28,914
Shut up!
993
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:34,192
It's one big Jenga tower.
You pull a piece out, put it on top,
994
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,557
and the tower definitely gets higher,
but also gets less stable.
995
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:39,794
Will's back.
996
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,200
Let's do this.
997
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:48,190
Oi.
998
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,917
- Where have you been?
- I had to run an errand.
999
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,469
- What kind of errand?
- I wanted some gum. Got it.
1000
00:50:01,240 --> 00:50:02,356
Let me tell you something, Billy.
1001
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,557
I ever find out you paid
a gossip columnist money
1002
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:08,520
to protect me, I will beat you senseless.
And you know I can do it, because I'm crafty.
1003
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:09,590
I know.
1004
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:11,239
- Do you understand?
- Yeah.
1005
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,238
I hear Corporate wired the money.
1006
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,312
- Kahlid's home.
- Yeah.
1007
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,996
Funny, because legal wouldn't even let us talk
to our own security about Kahlid
1008
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,191
- because of the exposure.
- They changed their mind.
1009
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:24,270
Hmm.
1010
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:29,874
Did you know that it was Bill Clinton
who signed the repeal of Glass-Steagall?
1011
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:31,474
Yeah, everybody knows that.
1012
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:34,439
Well, now everybody knows it.
1013
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,036
How are the lessons going?
1014
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,794
Corporate didn't wire anything. You did.
1015
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,112
He's one of our guys.
1016
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:48,270
Yeah.
1017
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,312
Speaking of which...
1018
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,311
It's not much, but I'd like to help with this.
1019
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,632
- Neal, you can't afford it.
- Please.
1020
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:09,920
Sure. Thank you.
1021
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,351
All right, so I...
1022
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:21,992
- It's not much.
- Maggie.
1023
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:23,309
Please.
1024
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:26,035
What's this in the memo line?
1025
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:27,600
Read it.
1026
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:29,800
"Coach."
1027
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,392
We want Rudy to dress for the game, Coach.
1028
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,392
You guys are missing your fife and drum.
1029
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:42,353
You did this?
1030
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:45,037
Happy Valentine's Day.
