re. >> i think you'll like it. >> you can watch it tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern here on cnn. thank you for joining me today. i'm carol costello. another hour of "newsroom" straight ahead. beheadings of 21 egyptian christians. serenity shattered. new details on the weekend shooting rampage in denmark's capital warning the gunman may have had helped. >> atm machines rigged to shoot out cash at random. hackers lifted a billion dollars from banks in one of the biggest

bank heists ever. >> good morning. i'm kate bolduan. john berman is off today. let's get to it. egypt is pounding isis targets in libya right now in a second round of military strikes. that's what egypt's state run media is reporting. they believe they killed 21 egyptian christians who moved to libya for work. several victims were lined up and beheaded. there are also concerns that isis is spreading beyond iraq and syria now. cnn's ian lee is live in cairo. what are you hearing about this second round of air strikes after that horrific propaganda video that isis released? >> reporter: we're hearing from state run media quoting security sources about the second wave of air strikes. we reached out to the military. right now they say they can

neither confirm nor deny there was a second wave of strikes. very different from earlier this morning when the military released video of their f-16s taking off into the cover of night targeting sites in libyan city of derna going after isis training facilities and isis weapons depot. derna is a city in libya on the mediterranean coast roughly 200 miles from europe also 200 miles from egypt. worrying for the government in cairo. the foreign minister is on his way to the united states to speak to the u.n. security council to ask them to take responsibility for international security. what egypt wants to see is an international coalition like we see in iraq and syria also operating in libya. they also want political support and they also want material support. right now there are still thousands of egyptians in libya. the government is urging them to leave. urging them to go to the nearest land border to get across.

we haven't heard of egyptian military trying to pull people out from within libya but once they get across they are operating flights to get them back to egypt. this is a dangerous scenario and situation for egypt and they are operating and fighting isis on two fronts. they have isis in the northern sanaa killing hundreds of personnel and from this video we talked about, it shows 21 christians being beheaded and it shows isis in libya has a very strong foothold and expanding their presence and it's making egypt very nervous. >> it has to. it leads to many questions of what this means for the u.s. led coalition fight against isis that's been mainly focused of course to this point in syria and iraq. ian lee in cairo for us. thank you so much. back overseas in just a second have you been outside yet today? if you have not, you may not

want to go outside. nightmarish winter of 2015 especially in boston just won't quit. with 13 days left in february it's already boston's snowiest month ever and now the region is in a life threatening deep freeze. with windchills dipping to around 30 degrees below zero today and temperatures expected to stay well below normal throughout the rest of the week and more snow is on the way as well. ryan young is out in these brutal temperatures. no other way to say it. >> reporter: there's really no other way to say it. 58.5 inches has already hit this city and i can tell you that you have to think of the human toll and impact because a lot of businesses have been closing. think about the daycares that are closing and people trying to go to work with the snow but a lot of shutdowns. you look at how high this is. we've seen snow drifts the size of a bus. people were shoveling yesterday.

16 inches falling to the ground. this is supposed to be a park bench. look at how fluffy this snow is. this stuff is everywhere throughout the city. it's really hard to see anything under the snow. that's the park bench right there. people have been having a good time. they've been running through it but they are tired of dealing with the impact of the snow. we've seen people bringing out their dogs trying to walk them. we talked to people that have cabin fever. tired of being stuck on the inside. think about the impact on this city. it's been shut down for eight days. over $30 million spent to clear the roads and make sure everyone is safe. i can really honestly tell you, it is the wind that is just unbelievable. when it hits you, it just makes you just standstill. >> it doesn't matter what kind of coat you have on it goes right through. no way to battle those temperatures. i say this sitting in a studio. your face is freezing off.

thank you so much. you can understand bostonians getting on with it even though it's dangerous to be in it. we'll follow that. thank you. let's turn overseas once again following a weekend of terror in denmark. the 22-year-old behind deadly attacks in copenhagen danish police say was known to them for several criminal incidents. also they have arrested two men for suspected links to the gunman. this started when the gunman stormed a copenhagen cafe during a free speech gathering killing a filmmaker there. here's the audio recording the moment shots rang out during a woman's lecture. [ gunfire ] >> the gunman then opened fire outside a synagogue killing a man working as security. the suspect himself was later killed in a shootout with police. senior international correspondent nic robertson is in copenhagen following all of

this. we just talked about two people arrested suspected accomplices what are you learning about them and links to this gunman? >> reporter: the links between them and the gunman appear to be quite deep. these two young men, 19 and 22 years old, they were arrested on sunday they had by prior agreement, prior agreement and those are key words here prior agreement, agreed with the gunman to hide him out between these attacks. the police have said the gunman acted alone, these two men now appear to be accomplices in this and they are being charged with hiding the weapon with two counts of murder and five counts of attempted murder. these two men who are being charged right now will be held for the next ten days before we hear further legal proceedings against them. kate? >> also on top of that the suspected gunman is dead. what are danish authorities

saying about the man's motive? obviously it's a big question they'll have for these two suspected accomplices. >> reporter: absolutely. you have to believe that the motive on what pushed them to do this right now has to be part of the question. what we're learning about this man, he's been named by reuters and television here in denmark as omar abdel hamid el-hussein. he spent time in jail for an attack on a commuter train. the aimimage is of a violent man with a violent past but may have been radicalized by the attacks in "charlie hebdo" and supermarket in paris and may have been radicalized by what he read online. isis propaganda. that sort of material. so a violent man who may have become relatively recently

radicalized. kate? >> we'll talk much more about this. this weekend of terror in a peaceful country of denmark. we'll talk about that throughout the show. nic, thank you so much. in france, 250 graves at a jewish cemetery desecrated. a teen came forward saying he and four other teenagers participated in the damage. many were smeared with nazi graffiti. the vandalism comes at a time of growing concern over security for jews. this comes one month after radicals attacked a kosher deli murdering four people in france. the french republic won't allow another act against our values. hackers may have pulled off the biggest bank heist ever. the estimated take up to $1 billion. they didn't even walk into the bank. it was an online heist. it hit more than 100 banks in 25

countries and that includes banks in the united states. here's how it worked. hackers installed spying malware able to mimic bank employee work flows and that malware was used to hack information to transfer money to the thieves' own bank accounts and the attacks are still active as we talk. we'll have more on this threat coming up in about 20 minutes. they'll have to explain to me once again how does this work and how did they let it going on for so long? >> the shooter in the weekend attacks in denmark might have had help. two men accused of helping him hide after his deadly rampage. in one of those attacks a jewish man killed outside a synagogue. now benjamin netanyahu calls on european jews to move to israel. you're driving along, having a perfectly nice day, when out of nowhere a pick-up truck slams into your brand new car.

an irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. that puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. for years, jim's medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but now, with once-a-day xarelto®, jim's on the move. jim's doctor recommended xarelto®. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afib-related stroke risk. but xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem that doesn't require regular blood monitoring. so jim's not tied to that monitoring routine. gps: proceed to the designated route. not today. for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions jim can eat the healthy foods he likes. don't stop taking xarelto® rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to.

while taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases, may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. jim changed his routine. ask your doctor about xarelto®. once-a-day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring, no known dietary restrictions. for information and savings options, download the xarelto® patient center app call 1-888-xarelto or visit goxarelto.com.

police in denmark are questioning two men held in connection with the attacks this weekend. this started when a gunman shot his way into a cafe we've been discussing hosting a free speech event killing a filmmaker there. a swedish artist was on al qaeda hit list for prophet muhammad mohammad was also attending the event. listen to his recounting of it. >> i've been having problems

since 2007 and several incidents and this one was the worst because i have never been against shots before. i have to say, i mean the protection was good. even if the police protection could have been better they didn't really count on the strength of the terrorists machine gun. >> after this the gunman opened fire outside a synagogue also killing a man there who was working as security. the suspect was later killed in a shootout with police. why has this happened and who is this gunman? let's talk about that. joining us cnn terrorism expert paul cruickshank is here. you've been working your sources and learning more about where you think this man came from who this man is. he also supposedly has two accomplices that nic robertson was talking about. what are you learning about this man and attack? >> he was on the radar screen of danish security services because

of his ties to gangs in denmark. he wasn't on their radar screen because of ties to extremist groups or extremist activity but he had a violent past. he was in jail recently for stabbing a young man repeatedly on a commuter train. he got out of jail just weeks before he carried out this attack. it's possible he was radicalized while he was in jail. there seems to be more lone wolf attack. not somebody who is thought to have traveled to places like syria or iraq or to have any direct connections to terrorist groups overseas but perhaps someone inspired by those terrorist groups. back in 2010 they put out a $100,000 bounty on lars vilks'

life. >> they seem to have a background with gangs or being low level criminals relatively speaking and they transition to jihad jihad. is there a trend here? why is that such a challenge? you say he's on the radar for one thing but not the other. why does that matter? >> there is apparently a trend here. with paris attacks, there is a nexus between gangs and jihadis on the other hand. a lot of gang members becoming radicalized and going to syria and iraq to fight. gang members have easy access to guns and cash which can be useful for carrying out these attacks. these gang members are justifying some criminal activity as saying it's just against the infidel west and some will say they find a

redemption in radical islam from past criminal activities. >> why is this type of terrorists such a challenge now? it seems at least especially in europe they are known to law enforcement but not known to police for terrorist activity but why can't they then prevent these attacks from happening? is it a problem within the intelligence sources? >> it's really hard. it's just one guy perhaps a couple other friends in on it. how are they going to know about it when he hasn't been community communicating with a terrorist group and there's not a wider network there. the fact that gang members and people in the criminal underworld are getting involved in some of these lines are worrying. these people know how to kill and how to put together operations. some of the other lone wolf attacks in the past have been amateurish but some criminals know how to do this kind of thing. >> the fact that they are inspired by isis activity

elsewhere is just as troubling. thank you so much. paul will stick with me. we want to talk about this next. i want to talk about egypt's military taking aim at isis targets in libya. is the terror group growing and spreading and what does it mean in taking them on and how does it effect the u.s.-led coalition strategy. we'll discuss that next. well, a mortgage shouldn't be a problem your credit is in pretty good shape. >>pretty good? i know i have a 798 fico score thanks to the tools and help on experian.com. kaboom... well, i just have a few other questions. >>chuck, the only other question you need to ask is, "what else can you do for me?" i'll just take a water... get your credit swagger on. become a member of experian credit tracker and find out your fico score powered by experian. fico scores are used in 90% of credit decisions.

egyptian military forces say they are launching a second round on isis camps, training

areas and weapons depots. isis affiliated terrorists are believed to have killed 21 egyptian christians in a brutal video that they released. several of them appear in the new video. captors then appear to behead them on a libyan beach. terrorism analyst paul cruickshank is with us and military analyst retired colonel joining us to discuss. colonel, you have this horrific video. then you have one definite round of air strikes. second round likely that we're discussing coming from egypt. what does this tell you about the fight against isis now striking in libya? >> isis cannot be contained to iraq and syria. this is why president obama didn't put any geographic limits on it. the brutality of isis will work against it. it's sucking another arab state

into the conflict. egypt is one of the most powerful military resources in the region and if they get involved in the fight against isis that's a good thing. >> it also comes on the heels of this horrific video of 21 egyptian christians being killed. >> the ring leader of the beheadings is speaking in english and seems to be an arab guy fluent in english. a message directed at a western audience. europe is just on the other side of that mediterranean just a few hundred miles away. there's a real message that we're going to retaliate against you, europe for these air strikes that you're launching against us in iraq and a lot of concern from the european side because isis is really expanding

in libya really quickly. >> we've all been -- the focus has been largely on syria and iraq. syria where isis has their stronghold and headquarters and iraq where they have been trying to take over and now they are moving into libya and other places. tell me is there good direct communication, coordination between isis leadership in syria and then in places like libya? what are you learning about the coordination efforts? >> what we understand is this was all very calculated from the isis leadership and that a top aide was sent last year to libya to really build up presence there and return of 300 libyan isis veterans. that allowed them to take control of derna, a town in eastern libya with a population of more than 100,000 and since then they've been expanding along the coast and they now have a presence in tripoli where

we saw that attack where an american was killed and they are taking advantage of the simmering civil war in libya. they have been taking advantage to expand. >> what is the coalition expected to do or what can the coalition do when you look at libya and there's such a power vacuum. what are neighbors supposed to do? >> eventually they're going to either inject ground forces into libya or develop some sort of indigenous ground force to provide security and governance to libya. this shows we can't just bomb our way into victory. that's what we tried to do in libya four years ago. looking at syria and iraq it's the same situation if we simply destroy isis without providing some kind of enduring ground

presence and we'll create conditions for rise of other groups like isis. >> may have real implications on president obama's request for war authority to take on isis because when you look at it as you said it's not just defined or contained to syria and iraq at this point. thank you so much. coming up for us it could go down as one of the biggest bank heists in history. hackers stole up to a million dollars in a cyberattack called unprecedented. thanks for the ride around norfolk! and i just wanted to say geico is proud to have served the military for over 75 years! roger that. captain's waiting to give you a tour of the wisconsin now. could've parked a little bit closer...

welcome back. it could be the biggest bank heist in history. cyberattackers getting their hands on about a billion dollars from more than 100 banks in 25 countries including here in the united states. how is this possible? let's bring in cybersecurity expert to talk about this. gary i know i'm a layman on this issue. please help us explain. i don't understand the scope of something like this. how can you pull this off? how could anyone pull this off? 100 banks in 25 countries? >> we're looking on the heels of the sony breach followed by anthem breach of 80 million

records including my own as an anthem customer and now over 100 banks with potentially 300 million to 1 billion stolen. it's all about remote access trojans and spear phishing attacks. >> does that mean someone had to do something wrong inside the bank first to let them in or can they get in because there's a clear vulnerability in all of these banking systems? >> most companies have the same vulnerability and when people say this is a very sophisticated attack it's really not. it's about patience. first, they understood how the mail servers worked and messages people sent to each other and then they sent an e-mail with an attachment called remote access trojan or rat that looked like a normal file. somebody opened that file by accident and didn't know it was malicious. >> maybe it should be more troubling the fact that it's not that complex in your words. it really wasn't that difficult

to pull off and just required patience. if they get in gary how did the banks not detect this? some banks were hit multiple times in different ways losing money hand over fist. >> just like the guardians of peace, this group created a similar piece of malware, remote access trojan and way people use these is they eavesdrop when you least expect it. if your anti-virus doesn't know there's malware on the computer and computer appears to be operating normally to you, the user, something hidden you can't see is off doing things. spying on you. watching your key strokes. looking at you on the webcam. listening in if you have a microphone and laptop. >> i understand my security software may not be up to date. we would hope our banking

systems, all of our banks would have much more secure systems to protect against this. none of the banks have been named so we can't seek comment from them. do banking systems security software that out of date? >> a couple things. while banks haven't been named, jpmorgan chase and agricultural bank of china is where they deposited millions of dollars. so they used victim accounts and they created spoofed accounts and moved money to those two large banks. banks have firewalls and they have anti-virus and encryption. the problem is as i wrote in my year of the rat threat report this year nobody knows how to handle social engineering 101 where we get an e-mail and it has something that's new that's not detectible by the latest anti-virus. these new rats. >> real quick, are they going to get this money back? >> great question. you know even the white house

secret service, fbi, everybody is getting involved. one of the issues is whose money was stolen? how will they get it back? >> i pose that to you and everyone else. i don't know. that's for sure. thank you very much for laying that out for us. have a good one. coming up for us the man accused of killing american sniper chris kyle said he shot kyle because he wouldn't talk to him. how much could those strange comments help the defense? what impact will it have on the jury and as signs of anti-semitism erupt across europe, israel's prime minister sends a message to the jews, come home. reaction next.

more violence against jews

in europe is prompting a familiar refrain from benjamin netanyahu. come home. following the shooting death of a jewish security guard outside a security guard in copenhagen and of course the attack on a jewish cemetery in northeast france, netanyahu is calling for immigration of jews back to israel. listen. >> i would like to tell all of the european jews and all jews wherever you are, israel is the home of every jew. >> i'm joined now by a rabbi in los angeles. it's great to see you. you're an important voice on many issues but this one especially because it's really hit a nerve with a lot of folks. i want to get your take. what do you think of the prime minister's remarks? >> the prime minister is only doing his job. he's the prime minister of israel. only jewish state in the world. he sees jews being threatened and murdered throughout europe and he says you're welcome in

israel. he would be faulted if he didn't say that by the people of israel. he's israel's prime minister. i do understand that some danish leaders said no terrorism is not going to be a reason that we come to israel. it's fine if they feel that way. there's no question that we have never seen since the end of the second world war a spate of anti-semitism like this. even hitler would be surprised. he wrote in his final will and testament that it may take a few centuries before people aspire to my philosophy. he would be shocked that all over europe today, anti-semitism is back in vogue tragically so. >> absolutely we've seen a rise in anti-semitism. one statistic stood out to me. more than 7,000 french jews moved to israel in 2014. that's double the year prior.

that's just one small example when you talk about the rise in anti-semitism and how european jews are by in large many are scared. what is behind the rise in anti-semitism? >> to be very frank, if you look at it everyone uses the word random lone wolf attack. in a way, it's not true. all of these lone wolves were radicalized by whom? by imams of radical fundamentalism. i disagree with president obama. i think it's wrong to say that any of this is random. we have to admit that while the overwhelming majority of world muslims reject jihad, at the same time a significant minority according to the pew study, 78% of muslims reject jihad.

a whopping 22% do not. 22%, if you look at statistics and compare it to the world's muslim population that would be a larger amount than all of the axis powers combined that fought in world war ii. that's a world catastrophe. i would not use the word random. i think it's a mistake. it has a name. it's called islamic fundamentalism. >> when you look at what's happening in europe. examples in paris. recent example in copenhagen. you have the prime minister benjamin netanyahu, saying come home. he's facing a lot of criticism. i want your take on why you think folks are criticizing the prime minister for extending the invitation invitation. listen to the former chief rabbi of denmark and his response in

criticizing netanyahu. >> i think that the prime minister of israel will say what he wants. i don't think it's the right time or right way to say it. i hope and think that if they are going to israel it's because they want to live in israel and not because they're afraid of living in denmark. >> rabbi, do you fault european leaders for not doing enough to protect european jews? >> yes, i do. i think we have to ask the following question. it was a wonderful thing to see. 3,700,000 people in the streets of paris after the attack against the journalists. may we ask the question where were the tens of thousands of people of paris when jews have been attacked month after month.

let's have a hundred thousand people go into the street and protest what happened to the jews. i would expect french people should say we're not going to allow this ever to happen again to the jewish community. if jews are attacked they should take to the streets because jews were attacked. that's not happened in europe. and by the way, i would say one other warning. it may begin with the jews but it won't end with the jews. this is attack on western civilization. as i said the overwhelming majority of muslims reject it. a significant minority do not and they're a threat to western civilization. >> would you advise -- if you

had members living in europe right now, what's your advice? >> i would hate to tell them to go because then the geography for jews would be that jews would have two or three countries to live in and the rest of the world would be off-limits. that would be terrible. i can't make that decision. parents have to make that decision. if they think they are afraid that their children are targets, that's their decision to make. if you ask me philosophically do i think it's a good idea for jews to withdraw from the geography of the world, i do not. >> you make a good point. if prime minister of israel isn't going to say you're welcome to move here who is? rabbi hier thank you so much. coming up for us week two of the american sniper trial is getting under way in texas. the defendant reportedly saying that the victims wouldn't talk to him so he shot them. how will that play with the

week two of the so-called american sniper murder trial is under way this morning in texas. this is the case where former marine eddie ray routh is charged with killing veterans chris kyle and his friend chad littlefield. kyle is the former navy s.e.a.l. who is the subject of the hit movie "american sniper."

routh's lawyer admits that his client killed the men but that routh was insane at the time. a deputy overheard routh saying i shot them because they couldn't talk to me. they were they were just talking me taking me to the range, so i shot them. i felt bad about it but they wouldn't talk to me. i'm sure they would have forgiven me. paul callen is here. i shot them because they wouldn't talk to me paul. what does that show? >> it's very strange. i think the thing we have to emphasize, where we have an insanity defense as you do in this trial, is that severe mental illness is not the same as legal insanity. because ordinary people would hear a story like that and say he must be insane if he's going to shoot somebody because they wouldn't talk to him. but in terms of the law, it's a very restrictive defense and you have to show that a you didn't know the nature and consequences

of your act, or b that it was wrong. in other words, you didn't know if you pulled the trigger a bullet would come out. >> regardless, if you're a juror, it has to make an impact. even if they have to make a distinction. >> here's what the prosecutor is going to say to this texas jury. that statement indicates that he was shooting them he had a motive. it's a lame motive. but it shows that he was punishing them for not talking to him. that means he understood that what he was doing was going to have consequences. so they're using that as their argument that this doesn't meet the insanity standard from a legal standpoint. >> it's so confusing. it really is difficult to follow all the twists and turns. including this one. eddie ray routh has an uncle. the uncle eventually says in the course of the investigation that routh pulled up and told him "i'm driving a dead man's

truck," referencing chris kill's truck, which he tried to escape in. but the uncle wasn't alarmed because eddie ray routh said crazy things all the time. >> yes. and the uncle, you know repeated that testimony. but he also repeated other testimony that the two of them discussed religion often. he played a jesus hymn, which again is an indication that routh understood the difference between right and wrong, and if he understands the difference between right and wrong, he doesn't meet the texas insanity law. texas law is so strange, there's a guy who's on death row now, who when he was tried, wore a purple cowboy suit subpoenaed john f. kennedy, the pope and 200 other witnesses to his trial. he was rambling incoherently. a texas jury convicted him in one day and sentenced him to death. they didn't buy the insanity defense in that case. so it's a tough mountain to

climb in texas if you claim insanity. >> i would say so. we don't know that eddie ray routh is wearing any of those things or trying to have any of those people come to testify in this case. >> not so far. >> paul, thank you so much. >> thank you. you want to catch cnn special american sniper report. that is 9:00 p.m. wednesday night. coming up for us "saturday night live" celebrates its big 4-0. four decades of "snl" legends came together last night for a star-studded trip down memory lane. we're going to show you the highlights next. the house tried to keep out all the water, but water got inside and ruined everybody's everythings. the house thought she let the family down. they just didn't think it could happen. they told the house they would take better care of her... always. announcer: protect what matters.

nbc airs an epic 40th anniversary special for "saturday night live" cast members who left the show long ago, like bill murray eddie murphy chris rock martin short, chevy chase. they came back last night to help celebrate. some recreated the characters that even helped make them famous. >> live from new york it's saturday night! >> sean you control the board. ♪ jaws get away from me ♪ >> yes, i know what you're saying. yes of kate more of "snl." i get it, i get it.

let's bring in professor robert thompson from syracuse university. professor, when you look at this nbc really blew it out for the special. yes, it's 40 years, a 40th anniversary. it was a three and a half-hour event. they had a red carpet beforehand. some folks really say it speaks to how "snl" went beyond comedy. it kind of spoke to -- it was kind of our cultural mirror if you will. >> yeah. and boy, did they ever. i don't normally like these clip shows. they go on too long. but this was just an absolute masterpiece. not since the motown 25th anniversary back in '85 have i seen something so beautifully put together. and i think you put your finger on it. especially for people of a certain age, definitely my age, there was no -- "saturday night live" starts in '75. mtv doesn't start until '81. carson was about it. so when this came out in '75, there was nothing on the air

like it. and it really became a generational identifier and while its position in the culture is different now and not so central, for about 20 years there, between '75 and the mid 90s, "snl" was a very very important cultural entity. require mean it really helped shape -- as you said for a generation, it helped shape how folks approached discussed, or even digested very serious -- as i say serious, bradley cooper making out with betty white. but those two things, when you really juxtapose them does "snl" still have that influence for today? can they have that influence today? >> by the way, that wasn't the dirtiest betty white joke of the night. >> please, do. >> well there was something about betty white's here tonight, so we're all getting laid. that was the other joke that

came later in the episode. betty was featured in important places here. but your question about insts centrality. johnny carson told jokes about politics but he wasn't a political satireist. now we have "the daily show." i don't think it would have happened had "saturday night live" not kind of cleared the real estate. it's like "saturday night live" goes into the wilderness, starts doing things that would have seemed outrageous on television before and leaves the space then for these other things to move in. comedy is now an important part of the civic conversation and we have "saturday night live" to thank for a lot of that. >> also kind of became the place to go when you think of the list of politics that have been skewered and played along.

sarah palin is just one of them. >> right. gerald ford showed up in a taped thing. obama has shown up. sarah palin, of course was there last night. she's become one of the most beloved alumnus of the program. so there is always this dicey relationship between those making fun and those being made fun of. and if you don't play along, even richard nixon went on "laughin'." that shows how important it is to play along with the clowns. >> i guess so. i guess so. and we will continue to play along with them. professor robert thompson it's great to see you. thank you so much. >> thank you so much. >> all right. thanks for joining us, you guys. a lot coming up in "newsroom." let's get you straight over to "legal view" with poppy harlow. it starts right now.

this is "legal view." i'm poppy harlow in today for ashleigh banfield. we are following the fallout from two very different, very deadly expressions of hate one in a european capital, and captured in breathtaking audio. >> why do we still say bus when we -- [ gunfire ] >> absolutel
