an all-star tribute, 8:00 eastern time. we have much more straight ahead in the newsroom and it all starts right now. president obama paying a surprise visit to the hospital, but a lot of unanswered questions remain? sanjay gupta weighs in next. a new look inside the failed rescue attempt of two hostages in yemen, including an american photojournalist, and why chuck hagel is being forced to defend the mission. -- >> breaking windows attacking police and looting stores. check hold protests take a violent turn in california, but will we see a repeat tonight? that's next. hello, again.

i'm fredericka whitfield. the u.s. is standing by its decision to order a hostage rescue mission in yemen. even though it ended with the deaths of american photojournalist luke somers and pierre korkie, south after can teacher. they were killed by their al qaeda captors as navy seals closed in on the militants' compound. it was the united states' third attempted rescue mission in recent months, and today during a visit to afghanistan defense secretary chuck hagel was asked by a reporter if the pentagon needs to take a sharder look at how it conducts these raids in light of the outcome. here's what he said. >> there's an immense amount of focus and time and review that goes into each of these operations, so i don't think it's -- it's a matter of going back and having a review of our process. our process is about as thorough as there can be. is it imperfect? yes. is there risk?

yes. but we start with the fact that we have an american that's being held hostage and that american's life is in danger. that's where we start. then we proceed from there. >> joining us right now from the white house, cnn, the secretary is pushing against any suggestions that there may have been a problem in the planning. what more are you learning about the operation? >> well, u.s. officials say that this mission ended up ultimately failing not because of any error made on the part of this seal team, but they say because the element of surprise was taken away. >> the mission extremely risky and made urgent when u.s. intelligence shows american luke somers would be murdered by saturday morning. by mid-morning friday the president authorizes the rescue giving no hint of the draut drama about to play out. just a few hours later according to u.s. officials, two b-22

ospreys under cover of darkness touched down in a remote area of yemen, some six miles from the compound for the hostages are held. about 40 special force commandos, mostly navy seals, move undetected over the rough terrain, but suddenly everything goes wrong when just 300 feet away, they are exposed, maybe by a barking dog. a firefight breaks out, and as a u.s. drone watches overhead, one terrorist runs back inside and shoots both hostages. u.s. forces kill five aqap terrorists. the rest flee. in one of the most dangerous parts of the mission, a combat medical team needs to spend a tense half hour on the ground trying to stabilize the two gravely wounded men. finally, they are flown back to the uss makon island off yemen's coast, but one dies on the way and another dies on the ship. >> you have to really look at this from a very surgical point just like a heart surgeon or a brain surgeon.

some will live. some will die. >> as word of the failed rescue mission leaks out, the president called luke somers killing a barbaric murder. vice president biden promises the u.s. will be relentless seeking justice. >> the women and men who are special forces that are engaged in these two rescue missions did an incredible job, and inflicted serious damage on the captors, but this time -- this time they were unable to save luke. >> we're told president obama monitored the mission from here at the white house, fred, and he followed along in real-time with every tense moment. fred. >> and, of course, the other big story coming out of the white house. the white house playing it down quite a bit. the hospital visit the president made. whenever a president goes to the hospital, it is a big one in

which to watch. what happened? >> that's right. it is a big one to watch, and white house officials are pushing back saying that the president had a sore throat. he had planed of it for some time. we know from his diagnosis yesterday that it's due to acid refl reflux. he had inflammation. the white house doctor theb recommended he go in for some extra tests, and that's what really prompted this hospital visit yesterday. he had a ct scan. the white house says that the results of the scan were normal. that this was done out of an abundance of caution and no biopsy is done or planned. questions still remain. the president is a well documented former smoker. the big question, of course -- whatsoever risk, extra risk was he at because he was a past smoker? here's what cnn sanjay gupta has to say. >> he is still smoking. we don't know, obviously. if he is, though, then that

certainly could be contributing to his current symptoms of acid refl reflux. smoking makes it more likely and worse. based on his past history, and, again, this is an abunnedances of caution. we hear the c.t. was normal, but you have the sort of history of smoking. you have the symptoms of acid reflux. a cat scan could be being performed to make sure there's no other mass or something that may represent cancer or swelling of the lymph noetds. it was read as being normal. that is the sort of abundance of caution. you want to look at that area very thoroughly. >> a white house official tells us today that this condition of acid reflux has had no impact on the president's schedule or routine over the last few weeks. now, fred, in just a few hours, we'll hear from president obama from the first -- for the first time since the diagnosis. he had a previously scheduled event here at the white house for kennedy center honorees. fred. >> all right. thanks so much. israel is not responding to

reports out of syria that israeli war planes launched two air strikes near the capital today. syrian state television said that one of the attacks targeted a warehouse near the damascus airport. we talked about it with ben a short time ago. >> as far as why the israelis might have struck in the past it's believed that they are very concerned about the possibility of a developed weapons system making their way from syria to hezbollah, which, of course, israeli has also had a series of wars with. >> no casualties were reported. an ugly turn in california with protests demanding justice. demonstrators smashing wind wroez and pelting police with bricks and other objects. police responding with tear gas when protesters refuse to disburse. two officers were hurt. once suffering a dislocated

soldier. dan simon in berkeley. what's the latest? >> well, hi, fred. we're in front of a trader joe's store which has its windows smashed. this happened along a major thoroughfare in berkeley. a very busy part of the town. this is university avenue. this protest started out as peaceful as they usually do, and then at a certain point according to police members of the crowd became unruly. started throwing things at police officers like bricks and smoke grenades. some of these protesters, according to police, were also wearing masks. at that point police responded with tear gas and fired rubber bullets, ask then things became even more chaotic with some of those protesters smashing up businesses like the trader joe's. they went to a wells fargo bank branch, and also vandalized a radio shack and looted -- took off with some merchandise. here's what some of those store workers had to say.

>> next thing you know, that window breaks, that window started breaking. >> like he was going to light the store on. >> every fire. just took stuff. i thought we were going to get attacked because sthe had weapons and hammers and crow bars and things. >> right now things are calm here in berkeley. this store, for instance has reopened. the question is what is going to happen tonight? we've seen on social media that another protest -- will that occur? if it does, how might the protesters behave and how might police respond? fred. >> dan simon, thanks so much. hopefully not far away from the university. rolling stone quietly changing its apology for the uva rape story. find out what the magazine is saying now.

join the nation ♪ nationwide is on your side rolling stone magazine now changing its apology for that article it published about an alleged rape on the university of virginia campus. the managing editor added more details to the original apology saying this now. "jackie herself is now unsure if the man she says lured her into the room where the rape occurred identified in the story as "drew" was a pie psi brother. we have come to the conclusion that we were mistaken in honoring jackie's request to not contactsing the alleged assaulters to get their account. we should have not made this agreement with jackie and we should have worked harder to convince her that the truth would have been better served by getting the other side of the story. these mistakes are on rolling stone, not on jackie."

this shocking apology now has many people fearing the broader issue of campus sexual assault. and will that be lost? our sarah gannon has more. >> honestly i was terrified when i first heard the news. >> reporter: sexual assault survivors like ashley brown immediately began to worry after "rolling stone "magazine backed away from its explosive reporting of an alleged gang-rape at the university of virginia fraternity house. >> whether or not every letter of it happened exactly as it was written, that doesn't change the fact that sexual assault is a huge issue. >> reporter: several survivors we've talked to say there is still too much tolerance at uva where rape is so misunderstood there's even a nickname for it. >> bad experience? >> that's the overwhelming thing is that you just had a bad experience with a person or you had a bad experience with that party or at this house or whatever. >> do you know what i am talking about, but i'm not actually saying it. >> emily poul says she was assaulted by an acquaintance last year. >> i remember crying.

i remember crying when it happened, and i remember saying no, and i remember pushing him off of me, and then i remember sobbing. >> reporter: according to university officials, 38 uva students reported to the university that they were raped last year. none of those reports led to expulsions, and there's no way of knowing how many more are like emily and didn't report what happened to them. >> you really start wondering, well, is it actually going to do me any good to report it? for some people it's worth it, and for some people it's not. >> she started the process have reporting her attack, but found it too hard to finish. >> i was literally covering my face sway hood and running from class to class because i was so fearful of running into the person that hurt me. >> reporter: eventually she dropped her case, but told cnn she witnessed disturbing scenes like having to carry friends out of frat parties where she says

they were drugged. >> people use words like, oh, that's the rapy frat. >> the majority of the narratives i have heard have been, oh, well, you're not hot enough to get into this party or, you know, try a different frat. >> members of the interfraternity council released a statement acknowledging there is a bigger issue saying, "we ask that our -- university president theresa sullivan agrees with. >> there's a piece of our culture that is broken. now, i ask your help in coming together as a strong and resilient community to fix it. >> welcome words for survivors like ashley brown. >> i think the altitude doesn't -- i think a lot of the greek system is finally waking up. >> now, fred, the police

investigation into the alleged gang-rape of jackie, it continues. in the meantime, we've spoken to several of her friends xshgs they say that they do believe that something bad happened to jackie, but what's becoming clear to them is that "rolling stone" may have gotten some of the key details wrong like where it happened and who was involved. that's now for police to figure out. >> sarah, thanks so much on the uva campus. all right. if you are looking for a job, it's time to party like it's 1999. why it's throwback time, and where the jobs are next.

government open, avoid self-inflicted wounds, and work together to invest in the things that support faster job growth and high-paying jobs. that means exports, infrastructure, streamlining our tax code, immigration reform, giving minimum mum wage workers a raise. cnn christine romans has more details. >> the job market is gaining momentum. 321 240us new jobs added in november. the most since january 2012. the trend is encouraging. ten months now of job growth over 200,000. the best year for job creation since 1999. now, digging inside these numbers fredericka, the quality of the jobs is improving. the first several years of the recovery featured low paid work, but now the labor department calls jobs growth widespread, spanning professional business services, retail, health care. yeah, the economy is still

adding bartenders and fast food workers that tend to pay less, but hiring is picking up in warehouses, factories, office parks, hospitals, labs. the jobless rate is 5.8%. still the lowest, lowest in six years. wages grew slightly in november, but this has been a missing part of the recovery for several years now. even as demand grows for skilled and unskilled labor, wages have not risen. that makes workers feel the recovery less. the white house argues these numbers are edge couraging but that a higher minimal mum wage is still needed cushion those lowest paid workers. on balance this week taught us a lot about the health of the economy. the best november auto sales in years. record high stocks. very strong job creation. the lowest gas prices in more than four years all pretty good signs for the american economy and the american consumer. fredericka. >> good news. we like that. christine romans, thanks so much. as we enter the holiday shopping season, the way we buy gifts is being changed by

four syrians, a tunisian and -- the united nations will eventually repatriate them with their home countries. all six men had been cleared for release nearly five years ago, but it took years to find the country willing to accept them. we now know the makeup of the new u.s. senate. louisiana senator mary landrieu, the last democratic senator from the deep south, lost her bid for a fourth term in saturday's runoff. republican congressman bell cassidy swept to victory. he gets the republicans a 54-seat majority when the new congress convenes in january. the government of the philippines is blaming typhoon for at least two deaths. the slow-moving storm is losing strength as it moves northwest across the country and dumps heavy rain and that is the -- has the increasing risk of flooding as well. about 40 million people are in

the path of the storm. relentless rain and howling wind at great speeds, but don't let that deceive you. this storm is not going through the philippines fast enough. it is going incredibly slowly bringing with it the sheets of rain. let's just take you to sea. i mean, there you can see against the darkness all of that rain and water coming through well that wind, and that is the major concern here. that is because as it moves slowly across the philippines and all the islands here, it's bringing with it the potential for flooding, for storm surges, great concern, and, of course, landslides and mudslides. not far away from us here in this area is a volcano. volcano myon. the major concern there is --

they are volcanic debris that could be dislodged by this storm and comes crumbling down the side of the volcano and crushing anything in its path. by the way, those have now been evacuated all around the volcano. and, of course, the concern is that they realize that wherever it may be. may something into streams and rivers -- flooding is a major concern. this rain simply hasn't stopped since we arrive saturday -- the vulnerable people low income families living in properties that aren't made of very strong materials. the main have stayed out there. we saw many of them along the way here. thankfully many people have paid heed to the weather warnings and to authorities here in the fim

world, and here's a sneak preview of who you will see presenting tonight. >> first of all, you have a lot of nerve even bringing up heroes to me. >> why? >> talk about a wounded warrior. okay? i have been -- i think it's a truly amazing award show, and i believe i confronted you new year's eve about it. >> all right. >> let's talk about heroes. let's talk about heroes. cnn heroes was an amazing show. number one, not only was i not even invited, i -- >> they told me they didn't trust me. >> do people not know you were actually volunteering and going overseas to afghanistan and iraq? that would seem to be -- >> no, i guess apparently over at cnn you guys are so worried of my potty mouth that they actually said you can't come to the show or present. however, what if we showed you mopping up in a soup kitchen? >> to make up for past wrongs, i

would like to present -- >> you trust me? >> i trust -- i absolutely trust you. >> i would like to go. >> do i have to mop the floor? >> no. >> just tell me that. >> no.

is a really big deal.u with aches, fever and chills- there's no such thing as a little flu. so why treat it like it's a little cold? there's something that works differently than over-the-counter remedies. attack the flu virus at its source with prescription tamiflu. and call your doctor right away. tamiflu is fda approved to treat the flu in people 2 weeks and older whose flu symptoms started within the last two days. before taking tamiflu tell your doctor if you're pregnant, nursing, have serious health conditions, or take other medicines. if you develop an allergic reaction, a severe rash, or signs of unusual behavior, stop taking tamiflu and call your doctor immediately. children and adolescents in particular

may be at an increased risk of seizures, confusion or abnormal behavior. the most common side effects are mild to moderate nausea and vomiting. ask your doctor about tamiflu and attack the flu virus at its source.

following the deaths of eric garner and michael brown, which

involve white police officers, many people are calling for the federal government to get more involved. president obama weighing in on race relations in a b.e.t. interview. >> it's important to recognize as painful as these incidents are, we can't equate what is happening now to what was happening 50 years ago. if you talk to your parents, grandparents, uncles, they'll tell you that, you know, things are better. not good in some cases, but better. >> we're joined now by cnn senior political analyst and director at the national journal. ron brownstein and aero lewis, political anchor at new york one news. good to see both of wrush. >> good to see you. >> ron, you first. to what extent or how much further should the white house be involved? the white house got the justice department involved. is that enough? >> well, the president, i think, has had a very consistent and measured tone on issues like this throughout his presidency. i mean, he has tried to strike a balance. as you saw in that clip, saying

things have improved certainly over the course of his life. but there are still challenges, and that on the third piece of the agenda has been a very bill clinton-like effort to balance calls for opportunity and reform with calls for personal responsibility in the african-american community and that i think it's interesting watching this unfold, there is more polarization around these issues than there were even in the 199 0z, and it's been hard for him to find stable ground to stand on. i think he has more pushback from black supporters than bill clinton did with similar messages, and there is i think more -- it is more difficult to go in the other direction at a time of intense racial polarization in the voting. >> do you think fairly or unfairly that more is being expected of this president particularly because he is black? >> well, i think we may give it a little bit more attention, we in the media, but the reality is there is definitely a federal role in overseeing and investigating police departments that there are credible charges of abuse of authority or of

excessive force. i mean, the justice department has initiated a whole bunch of investigations. one just came out on cleveland. it's really devastating. there's clearly a federal role. if people are looking for something more than that, while they may be a little disappointed, but we shouldn't underestimate the reality that there are police departments which if and when they get out of control, it is the role of the federal government. find out if there's a systemic problem, and recommend serious change. the feds will take a look and see if there's any kind of systemic problem, and that's really i think what the public wants. to know that if there's a problem or if there's an allegation of a problem, some neutral outside party with some credibility and resources is going to take a look at it before we just kind of sweep it

under the rug. >> there have been some who try to make comparisons of the president's involvement which cambridge police officer and harvard professor when they had their run-ins when the officer suspected mr. gates of breaking into his own home, and then there became a beer summit and the president was involved. why is it different as to why the president isn't or perhaps even shouldn't try to address it in the same manner. >> well, i think one clear difference is what -- there's a legal process going on here. the justice department is investigating whether there are civil rights allegations to bring specifically in the cases of michael brown and eric garner, and those i think historically have been tougher to get to move forward than on these broader systemic investings of police departments. they are in a very difficult position here. i think there's a lot of expectations among their supporters that they may act in either or both of these cases.

>> let's move to another pressing issue. we're talking about thursday's looming government shutdown at the house and senate and the president don't reach a budget deal by thursday. then federal agencies says might be running out of money, and here we go again. arrol, realistic, or is this pipe dream. >> i wouldn't put any amount of dysfunction past the current congress, which has, you know, some sort of underperformed even the last congress, which itself had set a record for lack of achievement. it's very possible, i think, that the republican leadership will say, you know, we don't want this to be the first thing that people pay attention to as the new congress comes in. they can dispose of this. that they can sort of get beyond this and that maybe this immigration problem that they

want to trump up is better handled when they have more control and a handle at the tiller. that would be my expectation, and, frankly, my hope. >> then, ron, not again. not near the holiday season. i mean, this -- i guess there would be a lot of people who would say did congress not learn its lesson from last time? >> the republican leadership is trying for a two-track solution. >> through february and march of next year to give them another shot when they have a bigger majority at trying to undo what the president has done for executive action. the challenge is whether there are enough conservatives who will split the issue in that way, in the house, and if there are not, fredericka, john boehner is going to need votes from democrats. harry reid and the senate has said basically he set this deal. it's less clear that nancy pell owes where i and house democrats will. while they probably will avoid it, it is not 100% certain that

they can avoid that blind alley that he talked about. >> a different ring on those words, tis the season. gentlemen, thank you so much. >> thank you. >>. >> the duke and duchess of cambridge. about to become new york city's most famous tourist. details of their u.s. trips straight ahead. celebrate what's new, the bigger, better menu at red lobster! with more of what you love! try our newest wood-grilled combination! maine lobster, extra jumbo shrimp, and salmon! so hurry in! and sea food differently. so you can see like right here i can just... you know, check my policy here, add a car, ah speak to customer service, check on a claim...you know, all with the ah, tap of my geico app. oh, that's so cool. well, i would disagree with you but, ah, that would make me a liar. no dude, you're on the jumbotron! whoa. ah...yeah, pretty much walked into that one.
