"new day" starts right now. criminal complaint revealed. the man who leaked nsa secrets is now facing charges of espionage. the question is how to get him back on u.s. soil. paula deen, is her brand ruined forever? and they've gone double platinum, inducted in the rock 'n' roll hall of fame and pr
3:01 am
propositioned to do what? >> good morning, i'm alison kosik. >> and i'm victor blackwell. it's a "new day" not monday through friday. although secrets, there's nothing in the mugs. >> let's go ahead and start this "new day" with formal charges against a man who admitted he leaked government secrets. i'm talking about edward snowden and secret information about the nsa's surveillance program. snowden is still hiding in hong kong. joining me now is cnn's correspondent dan loathian. good morning, dan. tell me what the charges are and does the filing of this begin the extradition process? >> well, good morning. this is the first start in
3:02 am
getting snowden back to the united states. the fbi charging snowden with theft and espionage. when we talk about espionage, more specifically what that means is unauthorized communication of national defense information and the willful communication of classified intel gons an unauthorized person. according to "the washington post," the u.s. government has now asked hong kong to detain snowden as part of some kind of a warrant. a provisional warrant. now, this is just sort of the step that we always expected. first of all, before they could get snowden back to this country, they would have to file these charges. then would come this warrant and then this process of trying to get him back here to this country. as you know, nowden has admitted to leaking this information because he believes the obama administration, specifically, mr. obama himself, has not been transparent and knack has expanded some of the programs. of course, the u.s. government and the nsa specifically saying that these kinds of programs have helped to thwart some 50
3:03 am
terrorist plots. and that the congressional investigators and members of congress have had a lot of oversight to make sure all this is done within the guidelines. >> okay. so, is this it? or could more charges come later? >> well, you know, there could always be additional charges. at this point, we don't know of any additional charges. what we do know, snowden has resisted any effort. the last we knew, he is still in hong kong but perhaps he could be somewhere else. this could be a difficult chase, if you will, if the u.s. government tries to find out exactly where he is and bring him back. one other thing, we have gotten some comment from peter king the chairman of counterintelligence and terrorism and says he supports this effort to indict snowden and that snowden, quote, has betrayed his country and
3:04 am
demand extradition at the earliest date. now that the charges have been filed against edward snowden, the focus shifts halfway around the world to where snowden is believed to be hiding out. let's go to senior correspondent nic robertson in hong kong. nic, the authorities want hong kong to detain snowden on an arrest warrant, tell us about that? >> well, the process here, the chief executive will recommend a position and the court decides to issue whether or not, and more than likely they will, an arrest warrant. what the police said today, they will follow this through if this process begins. i think every indication here is that it's under way. and they also said something that was very telling. any foreign citizens here in hong kong must abide by the law. edward snowden has also said, as well as wanting to avoid going back to the united states, he
3:05 am
has also said he has faith in the hong kong justice system. there's no word that he's actually turns himself in. in fact, it's almost to the contemporary. unsealing of the charges perhaps hard on the heels that edward snowden was trying perhaps to leave here to fly on a private jet to iceland. all of that seems to have come to a grinding halt. and the legal process under way. and a little opaque as to the details that are carrying out right now here, victor. >> tell us about the communications between the u.s. and hong kong. have the u.s. officials been talking with the hong kong authorities? >> that's the understanding we have. certainly, hong kong authorities are very tight-lipped about this, as well as consolers here at the the consulate in hong kong. but speaking to lawyers here as well who has often spoken quite openly about these type of asylum issues that we seem to
3:06 am
get set with edward snowden as gone tight-lipped as well. i said, are you representing edward snowden. he said he couldn't comment on that. i asked him a few other questions. so we get the impression here that there is a legal team being lined up for snowden. and we weren't say that with absolute certainty. but we are beginning to see the vestiges of what may become a very protracted and legal case here, as snowden trying to get asylum in hong kong. >> how about the chinese government? could the chinese intervene? could they get involved in this? >> oh, sure, it's possible. this is china, one country, two systems. pressured by beijing. i think the general perception is what we're getting from legal experts here, lawyers are, are saying right now, the way this would play out legally, at the
3:07 am
three charges, one of those charge says charge that also exists here in hong kong. that means according to the legal terms the agreement between the united states and hong kong actually should go ahead. that's theft of property from a government. and the change that snowden might use to get alyle sum here which is political persecution. the lawyer tells us he is looking at the charges, he 16 political persecution here. everybody is really expecting the legal process to go along the expected lines. there won't be any big political hurdles put in the way. that's the expectation. we've yet to see it play its course here, victor. >> many players in this. nic robertson in hong kong, thank you the food network says it's dropping paula deen. the move coming after the southern cooking queen admitted in a deposition that she's used the "n" word in the past. now deen and her brother are
3:08 am
being sued by sexual and racial harassment from the a former manager at their savannah restaurants. deen apologized in two statements online, first in a professionally produced video. apparently that was not what she wanted to say so she removed it and posted an amateur video. >> i want people to understand that my family and i are not the kind of people but the press is wanting to say we are. i spent the last 24 years to help myself and others. your color of your skin, your religion, your sexual preference does not matter to me but it's what in the heart what's in the heart, and my family and i try to live by that. and i am here to say i am so sorry. >> so deen is out of the food
3:09 am
network. cnn's nick valencia joins us now. how is paula deen reacting to that news? >> racial incidents are notoriously difficult to come back from, victor. she's in full-fledged damage control releasing that video, and pulling it back and releasing that video. making it seemingly relentless. she's begging her friends and fans to come back. it's really how she's reacting to this that's confused a lot of people. very bizarre behavior and now being dropped from the food network, she's thanked them for 11 great years. she's really on her he'lls at this point, victor. >> the head line here is the use of the "n" word. this deposition is 180 pages. a lot of outrageous statements. i want you to talk about the
3:10 am
plantation-style wedding. >> it's 150 pages it's just very frank about it. very weird things said in there. one of them, the idea that she wanted to have this plantation-style wedding. we have a graphic here, the plaintiff's attorney she was deposed a civil lawsuit filed a year ago. but take a look at this, victor, it says, is there any possibility in your mind you that slipped up and used the "n" word? she said, no, these men, they were professional black men doing a fabulous job. of course, she's talking about the plantation-style wedding that she wanted to have. then she goes on to describe them and say i would say they were slaves. her pr team has come out and tried to justify the usage of this word. she grew up in the south when the use of the "n" word was
3:11 am
condoned. and they're sort of trying to couch it that she agree up in a different era. and this word is not condoned. we live in a society that this carries a lot out of ugly significance and they're backtracking trying to deal with this fallout, what she said. >> we will talk about this in the morning. nick, thank you. a big oops from facebook. the company said it accidentally shared personal information like e-mails and phone numbers for 6 million universe because of a bug or download tool. the information was only sent to people who were connected not advertisers. alberta, canada, could be in for more catastrophic flooding today. 75,000 people have already been forced from their homes in calgary. most of the downtown has been evacuated. some shelters are filled to capacity. the town of medicine head is expecting its worst flooding in recorded history.
3:12 am
the royal canadian mounted police say at least two people have died. a third person is missing. >> amazing pictures. >> yeah, apparently, it's not over. here's another question how much worse will it get for calgary? >> what do you think? >> you know, it's going to get worse because more rain is coming. really the worst of is where the confluence of the bow and livingstone rivers are. the bow valley in alberta, you can see 6 1/2 inches of rain almost. some of these areas have more rain in a few days than they get in an entire month. so that's really where the worst of it is. the rivers in the downtown area and south of downtown. right now, 43 degrees, skies are dry and the damage has done. as we head towards this weekend, kind of why yet but then a few rain showers. and another area of low pressure

it's 7:00 here on the east coast. welcome to this "new day" saturday. we begin with new developments about edward snowden. he admitted to leaking secret information on the nsa surveillance program. and now the government has leveled charges. >> those charges are theft of government property, willfully communicating classified communications and unauthorized communicates of information. cnn's dan loathian is here with us this morning. dan, these are the charges that we're hearing. are those the only ones that he's going to face? >> the only charges so far. it's still in the justice department launched an investigation after the leaked information became public. and this is sort of the first step in the legal fight to get snowden back into this country and in the courts. snowden who is still believed to be in hong kong specifically unknown where he is at this point. he doesn't believe that he has
4:02 am
done anything wrong. he says that the obama administration, the president himself has not been transparent. and knack, has expanded some of these programs which he believes is just wrong. but the administration has been defending these programs saying in many cases, dozens of plots have been blocked box of these surveillance programs. so again, we expect that this is sort of the beginning of what could be a long drawn-out legal fight to get snowden into the country. >> snowden has been in hiding with charges filed does that mean efforts to find him will heat up? >> it really does. snowden himself has said he will fight any attempts to get him to come back to this country. according to "the washington post," the u.s. government has asked or demands or asked of hong kong to get him, detain him in hong kong, as part of a warrant. en extradition warrant. and so that is sort of this process that is beginning. but we expect that snowden himself will fight any process,

hernandez's are sisters. neither he or his lawyer will have any comment at all. law enforcement sources tell "the boston globe" they've obtained video of hernandez and lloyd together just hours before lloyd was killed. of course, that did not answer the question of whether hernandez killed lloyd. what is clear, alison and victor, there's one big fallout from this case already. the football player has lost the big endorsement deal. the company that makes muscle milk has dropped him as a pitchman effectively immediately. first, a court battle and then a double lung transplant surgery. we're going to tell you how a brave 10-year-old girl, whose story made headlines around the world. we'll tell you how she's doing now. and this young man giving

4:16 am
>> reporter: the problem that the mckenzie family faced in georgia say problem that other families face. a research shows 1 in 5 children in the u.s. age 3 to 17 suffers from some form of hearing loss. amanda said when she called looking for help, the insurance company told her hearing aids are elective. >> so if we had bigger suitcases we would have put them on there. >> reporter: now there's new hope for hayden, this kid from atlanta, found it in minneapolis. >> it feels like we've been on this road for about three years now. it finally feels like you're seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. >> reporter: it's an opportunity this family never asked for, never expected. >> hearing technology is what we do in our foundation. we're the clinic of help. >> reporter: all because brandon was listening. you reached out too many over twitter. >> i did.

this kid's life has changed forever. now, he can hear his friends, he can hear his teacher. it's a new life for him now. >> it's surprising that insurance doesn't cover this equipment. what are the chances of them getting in the game and covering this? >> right. here in the state of georgia, house bill 74, proposed legislation. it's still sitting in the insurance committee. it hasn't been voted on yet but there is movement, there is momentum in other states. when you hear from the insurance agency, they say, look, we would like to cover these things. the cost is just so high, we can't. so that's their position. still you see people trying to make changes so kids like hayden can hear. >> it would be great to follow hayden throughout the years. >> i was thinking about that, five years from now, what a great story, then he'll be able to hear this friends. what kind of kid -- he's shy right now. what's he going to be like in five years. >> thanks. how do you like your burger.

4:34 am
that theory. arguing it was instead an external blast. to discuss, i'm joined by jim polk, he's a pulitzer prize winning journalist and cnn investigative reporter and jack pashle, author of "first strike." jim, i want to start with you, you were part of a 2006 document area about the crash. tell me what you found? >> well, alison, to begin with, the dispute over whether a missile brought down a plane and not an external explosion begins with witnesses on the ground. a neb of them said they saw a streak in the sky. but there were two airline pilots who had a front row seat of this tragedy. it happened right in front of them. let's listen and look to what she said. >> we were up in the air, we saw two fireballs go down in the water. >> reporter: that was the voice of david mcclain, piloting a 737 over long island. a bright light caught his eye.
4:35 am
>> and all of a sudden, boom. and almost instantly, a fraction of a second later, two streams of flames came out the bottom. >> reporter: another pilot, captain paul wheeler was in the cockpit of a virgin 737. >> i could see the fuselage and windows and bits falling off, fire everywhere, and it falling into the sea. >> reporter: both had flown in the military. both know what a missile looks like. neither saw a missile that night. >> i was aware from both the height off the ground and the fact there were no vapor trails in the sky that it was unlikely a missile that brought the aircraft down. >> i thought there was a bomb on board. that was my initial. i did not see any missile at all. >> now, alison, there was a helicopter pilot who said he did see a missile before the explosion. but he was at a lower altitude than those two airline pilots. >> okay. so let me ask jack, jack, what
4:36 am
do you think happened if it wasn't an internal explosion like those two pilots saw? >> well, unlike what jim says there were 270 eyewitnesses to a missile strike. 96 of them, this is fbi witnesses, saw it from the horizon ascend all the way up to the plane. they all described it the same way. that is a red tip. a plume trail after it, gray. and then it gets near the plane, it arcs over, zigzags and breaks up. one of those witnesses described in detail the breakup sequence of the airplane, and she's an aviation specialist before the fbi even know what it was. the fbi recruited the cia to re-create this animation to show what the eyewitnesses saw basically to discredit the eyewitnesses what they said,
4:37 am
after the nose of the plane fell off it turned into a missile many ascending 3500 feet, confusing the eyewitnesses on the ground. several of them were military people, pilots, commercial people, et cetera, sophisticated people into thinking they saw a missile. now when cnn did its animation ten years after the crash, they eliminated that zoom climb altogether. so i asked jim this, why did you eliminate the zoom climb if the cia -- what was the cia doing involved in this in the first place? if the cia used that expressly to discredit the eyewitnesses. >> very quickly, i would agree with you the cia is controversial. frank list, the transponder disappeared on the radar. there's no altitude readout for the rest of the flight and no supporting evidence for the cia's animation. >> right, but jack let me step in here -- >> jack? >> gentlemen.
4:38 am
>> one thing, when people hear this, they want to know if it was an external blast. who shot it down. why would anybody shoot it down, and why would there be this cover-up? >> well, let me address the cover-up. five weeks after the crash, "the new york times" had this head line above the fold right "prime evidence that explosive device destroyed twa flight 800." that's a paraphrase but it's close. above the fold to the left, clinton signs reform bill on democratic national convention. one of those headlines had to go it was this line. it was bill clinton's benghazi moment. they just wanted to kick this down the road until after so it did not affect the election. now, they did not tell the people involved in the investigation, of course. i'm sure they were told it was high-level security, iran shot these missiles, blah, blah,

blah. what happens is they have to explain the explosive residue all over the plane. the explosive residue that led "the new york times" to write the story they did. so they discovered there was a dog training exercise in st. louis months earlier in which this poor african-american cop spilled explosive devices all over the plane. they started leaking this before they talked to the cop. the cop only recorded the tail number of the plane and on the gate and time. now, the time that he did that explosion on the flight 800 training, the flight 800 plane was filled with 400 passengers and was leaving for hawaii. there was an empty wide body sitting next to him. they made this up. then they started corrupting all of the evidence, including the eyewitness testimony. >> the good thing is -- i have to cut you guys off. the good thing is, there's a documentary about this. i first want to thank you, jim

welcome back. we are in the e-block now. yea! that means time for entertainment news. let's begin with the story that's really just taken on a life of its own online. >> so many people are talking about this, after admission by celebrity chef paula deen announced that she used the "n" word in the past. food network has announce they had will not renew her contract that expires at the end of the month. good morning. let's talk about the videos. i want to show the viewers the apologies that deen posted yesterday online. watch. >> -- skin, your religion, your sexual preference does not matter to me. but it's what in the heart -- what's in the heart. and my family and i try to live by that. and i am here to say i am so

sorry. i was wrong. yes. i worked hard, and i've made mistakes. >> so, alexandra, one of our producers pointed out to me that she did not apologize for any specific thing. z this -- is this believable? let's start there? >> well, i think with the whole paula deen story, it was a little bit alarming for once to see something disgusting coming out of her mouth as opposed to going it, which is usually the case. but with the apologies -- she made like three apology videos which i know from being a kid like in high school, three apologies and three excuses are a whole less than one. actually, she seems to be the one who is hurt a lot coming out of this because food network not renewing her contract and everything.
4:46 am
although, everyone's sort of stunned response at the news that paula deen, a woman her age who is most known for putting fried things on top of other fried things, covering them in lard and double-frying them, that she somehow -- might have -- they're like aghast that she would have said such a thing. i mean, given her trademark, i think the sort of air of shock that we've been putting on has been also a bit surprising. >> so there's a backstory to this. the story broke because a former manager at deen's restaurant is seeing her and her brother for sexual and racial harassment. when asked at a deposition if she ever used the word, deen, yesterday, it was in conversation with her husband when a black man burst into a bank and put a gun to her head. deen admits to using the slur other times in her life as well.
4:47 am
deen has been through other controversy before but nothing like this. so the big question here, of course, is her celebrity career over at this point? >> i think the "of course" is the problem there. most people hearing, you know, a gunpoint like a horrible situation. even then you would have pause about using the word. of course, that's the eesh moment of her sort of statement. i don't know, i think before when you're reading paula deen, you sort of have this deep remorse and disgust when you're eating your fried layers. now you have someone to be remorseful about because i still think there's a lot of loyalty. >> not just the butter anymore. let's move on to this. this is pretty interesting. another big day, another talker. rapper kanye west and reality tv

5:14 am
people were filled with optimism. remember this image? as evidenced by this massive crowd in berlin, 2008. 200,000 people showed up to see him speak, before he became president. he returned to berlin this week to this -- 4500 people. the invited guests there. he got an earful on the nsa secret surveillance from germany's leader angela merkel. joining me now, donna brazile. good to have you. i want to ask you, crowd size aside, what's the problem for the president on the international stage? >> well, first of all, it's a fractured world. every day there's a new development, whether in brazil, turkey, or other countries, syria. we woke up this morning to find out that qatar was providing some of the arms left over in libya to the rebels in syria. so, this is a fractured world. president obama is laying the foundation for peace treaties with russia and reducing
5:15 am
tactical warheads in europe and reducing the nuclear arsenal. he's built a very broad international coalition to impose some of the strongest sanctions on iran. he's reset relations all across the world. but there's no question that you know we still have many problems with china, cybersecurity. you saw two weeks ago in his conversation with the president of china, we still have some areas to work out. but the bottom line is, i think the president promised to get the united states out of iraq. we did that. afghanistan, we're winding down. but there's a lot more to do. but he's laying a good, strong foundation. >> he made a lot of promises, and some would request if he's going to the opposite direction as evidenced by those on left who say the nsa surveillance program is not something that would have been championed by candidate obama. how big of a problem was that for him, as he went to the g-8
5:16 am
summit and tried to make a few stops through europe? >> there's no question that the revelations that we've learned over the last couple of weeks has hurt the administration. i think the administration is getting out front to explain it to the american people. we need more transparency. congress should continue to hold oversight hearinged, not just in the intelligence committees but also some of the other important committees to ensure that our privacy, our right to privacy, is not being compromised by our goal of protecting and securing our nation. >> let's bring in cnn's senior political analyst david gergen. in 2008 we expected to have better relations with the middle east and russia by this time. was then-candidate obama too ambitious or is this just a failure? >> i don't think he was too ambitious. the world, i think, probably expected too much of him. he remains popular around much of the world today, as donna has
5:17 am
said. i think he can still get big things done in the second term. but the days of huge adoring crowds and noble peace prizes seem long ago and far away. and i think that's partly because the world's problems have gone intractable especially the middle east, syria, the biggest issue continues to be iran, the world's economy is fragile, it's slowed in china. it seems stagnant in europe. but it's in part also, i must say, because there's a perception that american influence is receding around the world. there were not as active a leader as we were. and if i may add, i think one other element here, president obama has finding, as things get tough, just as he is on the home front when he doesn't has as many friends he would like to have or the white house would like to have, he hasn't form ed those relationships overseas that can help him when times get tough. he's got a good relationship with angela america until
5:18 am
germany. but look at president george h.w. bush he had the big of the rolodex in the world and many instances in which that came in very handy. the president's paying something of a price for going his own way. but again, remember he's still popular in europe. and he still can get big things done. >> donna, quickly i want to switch topics with you pop you wrote something about the paula deen controversy. i want to ask you about this. we've been asking this conversation with a lot of people in washington and in new york. but as a woman who was born and reared in the south, the question i put to you is paula deen a racist or is this the uncomfortable articulation of a woman born in the '40s and raised in the south in america? >> well, first of all, i'm not going to label her as a racist because i don't know what's in her heart. and i don't know of any incident whereby i personally can attest to that. but i can tell you that what
5:19 am
stupid judgment on her part to, you know, when you read that deposition and you read the allegations in the lawsuit, clearly she should have apologized much earlier. she should have settled the lawsuit. coming out yesterday with the weak statement didn't help her cause. i think the food network was justified in terminating her contract. but i would hope, because i believe in redemption and reconciliation, when someone of her stature asks us to forgive her, give her another opportunity, i for one would love to do that. i would hope others would because i do believe that she is going to make an attempt to, you know, do a better job in the future of communicating her feelings and thoughts and actions without reverting to a bygone era. the a bygone era. i along with my good friend david gergen, he's also from the south, we know our region has

come under so much pressure these last 40 years, but we've made so much progress. let us not allow paula deen's word or whatever happened to set us back because we're on a road to a better future. and i'm glad to be part of that future. >> david? >> victor, let me just add to that. i totally agree with donna. but there is another story that's growing up in the south that is so much more heartwarming. i was just in the part of the old confederacy in the northern part of virginia a stone's throw from the bat of bull run. a new five-starr hotel coming in shape in late august, built and financed by a highly successful african-american woman. that is a change. sheila johnson, who helped to start black entertainment television, is financing and building this thing. to see that so close to bull run, just tells you we're coming to a new day in the south. and i know both donna and i

welcome back. it was a trip of a lifetime, now it's nothing short of a nightmare. last sunday father's day, august reiger, a high school teen, vanished while hiking his with his family in mountains of ecuad ecuador. the trip was the valedictorian's graduation president. his father is in ecuador. any leads at this point? updates to share with us this morning? >> no. really nothing new. they went yesterday, they -- though they've done a very thorough search of the relatively small area, i mean, it's a mountainside that you can see from our hotel. you can see the whole of it where these trails are. and they searched just
5:34 am
extensively with military people and dogs and helicopter and all kind of stuff since it started, really. they did one more search yesterday in a couple of localized places where i really feel, you know, it's actually possible he could have been. a lot of the places they searched way up on the mountain. i just know he couldn't have gone up there, but it didn't hurt to look. >> take us back to last weekend, chris. tell me what you remember, your son was five minutes ahead of you guys on the hike. was it like your son to wander off? is that unlike him to do something like that? >> oh, yeah. totally unlike him. oh yeah. i mean, yeah. we were going up, going to take this trail that all of the tourists take here. nothing remote or dangerous or anything like that. it just makes a loop on this
5:35 am
mountain overlooking the, you know, this town. and we started up, you first -- there's kind of the halfway through the loop there's -- you get up on the reege where they have pavilions and there's a cross up there, and we started about halfway up to that, stopped at a little overlook thing. we started walking on and then he walked faster on ahead. and his brother was trying to keep up with him but he kind of fell behind. but he was ahead of us and when we -- you know i just -- it was not more -- he couldn't have gotten more than five minutes ahead, probably not that much, maybe two or three, just walking faster than we are on this mountain trail, and, you know, when we got up to that ridge
5:36 am
where they have, you know, a beautiful overlook i fully expected to see him. >> and he wasn't there. >> he wasn't -- he wasn't up there. my other son had gotten up there first and now he hadn't seen him. so that, you know, that concerned me because, you know, we have done things like this a lot. he certainly might have gone up ahead of us and then waited, but to go off, you know, not waited when it wasn't obvious where to go, that -- nothing like that has ever happened. we sat up there about 15 minutes and he wasn't coming. so i thought, well, he must have just gone on ahead. i was a little mad at him, you know, for doing that. i thought, well, we'll catch up to him later on the trail. but then the -- i thought at the time that it was really just one trail only that was just totally
5:37 am
obvious. but when we started off to finish our loop, it became clear that it wasn't really that obvious. and we even got a little bit lost -- not lost in the sense of lost like you come back down, you see the town from anywhere on the trail, but lost in trying to find this particular path that we wanted to loop on. and so when i saw that, i thought well, you know he might have gotten on that loop back on a different way and maybe we won't, you know, maybe we're not going to see him until we get back to the hotel. >> chris -- >> i've been worried too much. i was like, i'm surprised he would do that. >> chris -- >> but he's 18. you can get lost. i fully expected to see him when we get back. >> chris i want to wish you luck in finding your son. and i really thank you for your time this morning. >> okay. thank you.

on monday, we'll have the opening statements in the george zimmerman trial. he's facing a second-degree murder charge for the death of florida teen trayvon martin. after almost two full weeks of questioning, finally a jury seated. six people, four alternates. joining me is cnn legal analyst paul callen. good to have you. the prosecutoring and defense attorneys have referred to the jury members as five white women, one black or hispanic woman. cnn doesn't have access to the jury questionnaires, can't independently confirm that. only six jurors, is that normal in florida, first? is the fact that they're all women significant? >> well, people are surprised, first of all that it's a six-person jury. and actually that's very rare in the united states. in most states felony cases are tried by 12-person juries. florida has a rule, only six people unless a capital murder case, which this is not. this is not a death penalty case
5:44 am
so six people decide. when you have, by the way, i was looking at studies, went you 6-person juries as opposed to 12-person juries they reach verdicts more quickly but tend to be less diverse. so that's the way it plays out with six-person juries. >> the defense tried -- go ahead. if you want to finish that thought. >> no, there was -- obviously there was a second part of your question, i think, that had to do with the rest of the demographics on the jury, which is a lot of women on the jury. everybody's saying, when i looked at it, i said, wow, six women on the jury, very unusual to have a single-gender jury. how than going to play out? on the surface, it looks like it would be good for the prosecution because trayvon martin was only 17 years old and, you know, you think, mothers, particularly, would be sear sympathetic to the death of a child. when you look at subcategories of the jury only two have young children, five of the six have
5:45 am
sort of connections to gun ownership. members of the families own guns or they've owned guns themselves. several other factors that might suggest this could be a favorable jury for the defense when you analyze the actual women sitting on the jury. >> a couple of issues that were decided this week by the judge. defense tried to block the prosecutors from using words vigilante or wannabe cop skrik zimmerman. judge said, no, those words are fine. is this important to the case? >> i think it is important to the case. it's very unusual, too. when you try criminal cases, and i've been involved in a lot of trials as a prosecutor and defense attorney, there's sort of a lot of name-calling that goes on during when you're characterizing the defendant in the case. here we had a motion, hey, you can't say that he's a vigilante, he's a wannabe cop, you know, all of these things o'meara was
5:46 am
trying to prevent the prosecutor from saying. in the end the judge split the baby. and he said, no you can't say racial profiling but i'll allow you to use the term "profiling" to the prosecutor, what the judge said. in her ruling in that respect, i think, really gave a lot to the prosecution because in most people's mind, racial profiling and profiling mean the same thing. >> a lot of surprises thus far. this is expected to go for two months. but then again, jury selection was supposed to take three days. paul callen, thank you for joining us. >> nice being with you. >> it's saturday, time to relax. check out video on the web. john berman doing that hard work for you the best of the web coming up just ahead in what i learned on the internet. ♪ bonjour ♪ je t'adore ♪ c'est aujourd'hui ♪ ♪ et toujours

good morning. i'm alison kosik. >> i'm victor blackwell. 9:00 on the east coast. 6:00 out west. this is "new day saturday." we're starting this hour with new developmented about edward snowden, admitted to leaking secret information on the nsa's surveillance program and now the government has levelled formal charges. >> and they are theft of government property, willfully communicating classified intelligence information to unauthorized person and communicating national defense information without permission. cnn white house correspondent dan lothian is live this morning. now that charges are in, does this begin the extradition process? >> reporter: it really does begin, first legal step to get edward snowden back into this country and into court. remember, you have to have the charges filed, then you have an arrest warrant and then glynn the complicated process of extradition. a u.s. official telling cnn that
6:01 am
the state department has sent some of that legal paperwork to its consulate in hong kong, consulate officials are supposed to send that information to authorities in hong kong, eventually that information should get in the hands of a judge to issue an arrest warrant. but remember, this was all -- this complaint was filed a week ago in district court, federal court in alexandria, virginia. so it's unclear where we are in that whole process. has it played through? has the judge issued that arrest warrant? or is it just now getting started? again, this is all very tricky because the united states does have an extradition treaty with hong kong but there are exceptions for political offenses. this could potentially fall under that. then add what complicates this further is that hong kong is a territory of china and so china at some point could potentially step in and prevent an extradition. so we know that this legal
6:02 am
process is now under way. but how each step plays out, unknown at this time. >> dan, edward snowden said it was me, i'm the source of the leak here. is the federal government satisfied with that? are they searching for another possible player? >> reporter: as far as we know, he remains the focus of this investigation. no word that anyone else is being brought into this. remember, this first became public when edward snowden leaked these documents to the media. that's when the justice department launched its investigation. snowden saying that the reason that he did this, essentially he wanted to make a point that the obama administration was not being transparent and president obama expanded some of these surveillance programs, which again, he thinks are wrong. >> dan lothian at the white house, thanks. the food network says it is dropping paula deen. this comes after the queen of southern cooking admitted in a lawsuit deposition that she has used the n word in the past.

dean and her brother are being sued for sexual and racial harassment by a former manager at their restaurants in georgia. dean apologized in two statement. the professionally produced video on the left, but that was not enough. that's not what she wanted to say. she removed the one on the left and posted the video on the right. listen. >> i want people to understand that my family and i are not the kind of people that the press is wanting to say we are. i've spent the best of 24 years to help myself and others. your color of your skin, your religion, your sexual preference does not matter to me, but it's what in the heart, what's in the heart, and my family and i try to live by that.
6:04 am
and i am here to say i am so sorry. >> cnn's nick valencia joins us now. once the depositions were released this moved quickly. there was the social media flush and then mainstream media and then her apologies and then food network dropping three shows. >> reporter: it's full-fledged damage control for camp dean right now. for her, she's trying to come out and just sort of hold on to the supporters that she has left. some people are standing up for her. majority of people that have come out and spoken out against paula deen very critical of her usage of the word. i want to play you sound from a local paster in georgia who says there's no way that paula deen can be racist. >> people want to jump on it and believe what they want to believe and they're going to add what they want to add. one thing i can sit here today and look you in the face and tell you, that woman can't be a racist. she can't have a heart against
6:05 am
black people with all that she's done and all that she continues to do. and that's why i'm here today with you, just to be a character witness for miss paula deen because she's a beautiful person. >> reporter: there are people that support her. a lot of reaction on social media coming out blasting paula deen for using the language. however long it was in 150-page deposition she talks about how this was a word that was condoned when she grew up in the south. this is a time, a woman who comes from a time when she went to segregated schools and now, you know, a lot has changed. our society has evolved where this is an ugly word with ugly connotati connotation. it's not just her usage of the wore. this deposition goes into her mentality and mind-set and she incriminates herself in a very big way, victor. >> going beyond just the word and its usage, there are other things in this deposition that have created headlines. talk about, if you would, the
6:06 am
plantation-style wedding and service that the wedding that she was planning. >> reporter: i think this is the most weird thing. when you go through each page of the deposition, she talks about wanting to have a traditional southern plantation-style wedding for her brother. the plaintiff's attorney says, what do you mean by that, the southern plantation wedding? bring up the graphic here. the plaintiff's attorney says, right, back in an era where there are middle age black men waiting on white people, you know this is before the civil war, during the civil war, after the civil war. she says, well, you know, sure before the civil war, before the civil war there was black men and women waiting on white people and asked, were they slaves? you know, help me understand this here. she says, yes, i would say that they are slaves. you know, it's hard to understand. also another part of the deposition, you know the plaintiff's attorney asked her pointblank, is your brother, who is a co-defendant in this civil lawsuit, is your brother racist against african-americans? and victor, she takes a long time to answer that question.
6:07 am
she says, i -- i don't know. the answer to that is no. you know, rather than coming out straightforward saying no, people critical of how she's handling this. very bizarre, pulling off that youtube video that was put forward by her pr team and putting up another video, canceling on a today show appearance because she wasn't physically able to show up. so it's not just the usage of the word, it's also the mind-set and mentality that's exposed in the deposition and also her reaction to the fallout. >> nick valencia, thank you. it's the first full weekend of summer, enjoying it? >> i am. >> and super moon is in the forecast. >> cnn meteorologist alexandria steel joins us with all of the details. tell us all about it. >> astronomically it's a big weekend. supermoon sunday. what does that mean? this is what it's going to look like. incredibly beautiful. et cete especially late tomorrow and
