3:01 am
guys out for a walk deciding they would kill some americans? what difference at this point does it make? >> well, madam secretary, we know what difference it now makes because a new bombshell report bipartisan reveals the attack could have been prevented, and it was on her watch. >> putting controversy behind them, the "duck dynasty" gang is back and there are a few new faces this season. meet willie's adopted daughter. meet her. "fox & friends" hour one starts right now. >> hi. this is robin leach with champagne wishes and caviar dreams and you're watching "fox & friends." >> when you hear him, you feel bad if you're not limod in in a bentley or something. >> i brought some caviar in. i always carry some in my bag. >> i saw champagne in the little coffee mug much like jackie gleason used to. >> i never leave home without a bottle of champagne. >> nice to have you.
3:02 am
brian is off today and tomorrow. clay is in today. and a big day. >> bombshell story this morning. >> after long denying, we thought back to the benghazi scandal and the administration denying any sort of connection to al qaeda originally, but a bipartisan benghazi report that came out yesterday, we're finding that they're noting the attackers were connected to al qaeda, that the american lives could have actually been saved and prevented by additional security. but the question everyone's asking is within that report, though they do mention the state department, i believe hillary clinton's name is mentioned, what, once? >> her name is mentioned one time in the appendix, and it is mentioned by the republican members of the senate select committee on intelligence. what's interesting is those four guys who died didn't have to die because, according to this report, it blames the department of state and the intel community for not preventing a number of
3:03 am
times, they in benghazi asked for more security but the state department absolutely failed to increase the security despite the warning which is a direct slap at hillary rodham clinton. >> there were over a dozen additional findings in terms of activity going on prior to the attack on the consolate that ended up in the deaths of those four great americans. >> there were a number of reports coming out of the times saying ambassador stevens was concerned about the security at the consolate there. in fact there is a talk about this document from the senate which, again, bipartisan. but there is another blame to go around. listen to joe in a goldberg. >> it is a very political document. it is an amazing thing to have such a searing indictment of the state department and intelligence bureaucracy, and hillary clinton's name, i think appears in the entire document once. it says the state department made all these mistakes, did no
3:04 am
independent intelligence investigation after this happened, after people died. 15 people have died who cooperated with the investigation in libya, and there is no mention of hillary. basically barack obama is completely absent too. it seems like part of the negotiation that led to this report was a way to avoid casting specific blame on anybody who matters. >> i was going to say patrick kennedy, who was the under secretary, is right underneath hillary clinton takes a lot of blame. he is the one who could have called in additional security at this consolate but he seems to be the one taking the bullet. >> if you listen to the end of what jonah says, quite a claim that possibly there is a sort of plea deal going on that yes we'll get this report if indeed it does not mention perhaps hillary clinton and barack obama's name. i don't know how much more accountability we need to demand from an administration. lives were taken, brutally
3:05 am
taken that day. there was no indication that there were protests outside the consolate as indicated. but the last call that chris stevens made, it's disheartening to americans. i'm not sure how long we can all take some lives in deceit. is this all about politics is what everyone is asking. >> if it is, it sounds familiar. remember we had bob gates, former secretary of defense, on this program yesterday. famously one of the quotations out of the book is hillary told the president that her opposition to the 2007 surge in iraq had been political because she was facing him -- obama -- in the iowa primary. the president conceded vaguely that the opposition to the iraq surge had been political. to hear the two of them making these admissions and in front of me was as surprising as it was dismaying. >> remember marco rubio? he was during all of this saying this is all politics. this is an election year. and he's reminding all of us now that it was an election year.
3:06 am
this is why we didn't hear so much about it. sweep this under the rug. these are false controversies. we don't want to talk about it. >> goes against the narrative. >> not something we want to talk about publicly. here is the senator. listen. >> this is in the middle of the presidential campaign. the narrative the president was putting out is bin laden is dead and al qaeda is on the run. if that's your argument, you can't possibly say by the way, al qaeda just carried out an attack and killed four americans. they clearly had a political motive for that narrative not to be the case. >> what's interesting, just a number of weeks ago "the new york times" came out with that great big thing that said despite what republicans were saying, there was no al qaeda involved. as it turns out, they say the attackers were from two al qaeda affiliates. ansar al sharia and the al
3:07 am
jamal group. what was "the new york times" up to when they tried to put out that whitewash? was it to help hillary? i'm not in the mind of the reporter but we know according to this bipartisan report, it was al qaeda related and it could have been prevented. >> when you hear even dianne feinstein yesterday saying there's adequate intelligence for a warrant on the attack on benghazi. much too late the admission is coming. there is no expiration date for truth but it should have been demanded and given much earlier. we're going to head over to heather nauert. >> hi, gang. got headlines to bring you. we begin at this hour with a fox news alert. a shooting at a grocery store in indiana leaving three people dead. this happened last night around 10:00 p.m. inside martin's super market in elkhart. police say the gunman who was in his 20's walked in the store and shot a customer. he then walked 12 aisles down and shot a worker. when police arrived, they
3:08 am
found him pointing a gun at another employee. he then turned the gun on officers who shot and killed him. police say so far there is no indication that the shooter knew his victims. new hope this morning for the family of a u.s. army soldier captured by the military in 2009. the military got its hands on a new video that they say proves he was still alive. his family releasing this statement saying -- quote -- "continue to remain strong. your endurance will carry you to the finish line." a navy pilot in critical condition after an f.a.a. team crashed off the coast of virginia beach. the pilot was on a routine training mission when something went wrong with his plane. he ejected thousands of feet into the sky. take a look at the simulation video. it shows how violent these ejections can be. he parachuted into the atlantic ocean and a fishing boat was nearby. it was able to rescue him. the oscar nominations

>> veterans groups up in arms over a department of veterans affairs proposal to change the disability claims process. joining us now, the c.e.o. of concerned veterans for america, pete hegseth. >> good morning. >> how are you? this is disturbing, right, because the process needed to be fixed. the backlog is known. it's an issue. veterans are not getting the care they need nor the care that they deserve. what was the old process like and how is this new one even worse? >> in filing a disability claim, the old process, any submission, even a handwritten note constitutes the beginning of a claim. veterans are in different places in their lives. could be homeless. some are professionals. there's a sliding scale; right? but any submission to the v.a. says this is the beginning of my claim for disability. and the v.a. would honor
3:17 am
that and begin the process of gathering information. what they're saying now is a claim doesn't start until a standardized form from a veteran is submitted to the department of veterans affairs and that form had better be accurate. and they haven't said exactly how accurate it needs to be. but what this process does is shift the burden from the department of veterans affairs to the veteran. it's almost -- and you and i talked a lot about the difficulties this department has seen. and rather than say, you know, the common break-up, if someone breaks up with you, it is not you. it's me. v.a. is effectively saying it's not me. it's you. you're the reason we have a backlog. >> they're saying let's put one more thing on this individual who has given himself time and time again to this country. has the benefit on privilege of being able to come back alive here to a family, and now we're going to make it difficult for him to start this process or her when she is trying to take care of herself as best as she can. >> i think you hit the nail
3:18 am
on the head there. this department's back is against the wall. they are on their heels and under fire because they failed in their mission in many ways of delivering the basic care, the basic responsive care veterans deserve. what are they doing? saying it's not us. the fact we've been getting incomplete forms. not the $40 billion we've gotten. it is your fault. we need better claims for you to submit. that is why the v.a. should be under fire for this. they have been trying to put things on-line. they have not succeeded very well. they have been trying to standard pro serbgs shifting the -- standardizing the process, shifting the burden to vets groups. >> it seems like they're passing the buck by passing the burden on. but what can they do instead? they're trying to do something. give them the benefit of the doubt. >> we do need to give them the benefit of the doubt. they have spun this all the wrong way by blaming somebody else. you've got to go more
3:19 am
efficient with standardized forms. you've got to use computer based systems. they have to use claims process which incentivizes veterans. forcing them to say you better submit it all up front means that veteran is more intimidated in submission of that claim. maybe they get it wrong which means more back and forth with the department in order to get it right before the claim starts. >> tkors it mean the more -- or does it mean the more expensive it is to get the claim started, those will be the last ones to make it into the system and they won't be responsible to pay? >> if a guy had an incident in iraq or afghanistan, it is maddening to know that person is going to have even more i am -- even more impediments. >> thank you. coming up how many drinks does it take before your memory starts to fade? we know the exact answer and that's coming up next.

3:24 am
amnesty box. recreational pot may be legal in colorado but federal agencies like the t.s.a. still consider it illegal. >> picking up that amnesty box at the end of the day. a new study found middle age men who drink heavily can expect a faster decline in memory and thinking skills. so how much is too much? and who else should be worried about this? let's ask dr. marc siegel, fox news medical a team. what does the study say specifically about men? >> first of all, it occurred in great britain. i have to tell you, some of the best beer and wine over there and alcohol. maybe that's part of the problem. i don't know if it would apply here. what it says is middle-age men, approximately 55 years old, if they drink more than two and a half drinks a day, it interferes with their decision making and ability to remember. it's over ten years and they looked at 5,000 men, 2,000 women. did not show the same effect in women. >> two and a half drinks a
3:25 am
day is the concern level here? >> exactly. >> women different in the study? explain that difference. >> alcohol is affecting more than just the brain. it doesn't kill brain cells the way we say. it interferes with thinking and how neurons conduct. if you're a male you get less testosterone. men need their testosterone to help them think. >> over the age of 30, testosterone starts to decline. >> already. why do we want to accelerate that? >> the alcohol reduces testosterone further. you think that is why men are putting on weight. >> in the wrong places. they get fatigued. men are more if fatigued without testosterone so of course they're not going to think as clearly. it works on all levels. it isn't just one number. the study shows one drink a
3:26 am
day, two drinks a day, that's okay. above two drinks a day. you're not going to sit there with a measuring cup in a bar and say i made it past two drinks, i better slow down. that is the problem. alcohol is addictive. it is going to be a problem once you start getting into that range. >> at what age should you start worrying? my producer gavin is concerned because he's middle aged like me. think about it. 50? 40? where's the cutoff? >> i don't think you should look at it that way. i think even 20 -- in other words, i don't think anyone should be drinking a lot. we go on tv and say a glass of wine is good for you, has resveratrol. we may be sending the wrong information. a lot of scientists believe alcohol is no good for you period because it is a poison, a toxin, no good for the stomach. beyond a certain amount there's direct effects on the brain. but i don't think we should be saying at all people should drink, period.
3:27 am
less is better. >> it would be interesting to see if you didn't drink for a month what that would do for your body. would your memory improve? would you drop weight? >> what are you doing when you're drinking? maybe you would be on the treadmill if you weren't at the bar having a drink. for people that have very stressful lives, maybe a glass of wine, glass of beer at a ball game, a little bit of alcohol may actually have a positive effect. but the problem is you don't know where to stop. >> interesting study. thanks for coming in this morning. fascinating. coming up here on the show, eric holder's justice department about to change the way federal agents fight crime. why they might not be able to look at religion, gender or even nationality to get the bad guys. could this hurt our national security? we report. you decide. then a golf store crash. no one saw it coming. the story behind that coming up.

peter berg's film here depicting what actually happened gets worse because no one speaks. then it gets even worse, she says in the article, when the guys -- and i believe she's referring to those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom -- talk. >> because she describes it as when the fire fight unfolds, she says there is 90 seconds of dialogue but a lot of swearing back and forth. these guys are dealing with gunfire. they are pinned down by a group of taliban soldiers and you're being fired upon, there's going to be some cussing. >> there should be no critique on someone's last words when they're fighting for freedom you enjoy. some would say her opinion is in the shadow of those of the families portrayed in the film and we've had the blessing and privilege of speaking to those individuals here at times at fox. i think perhaps -- let us know what you think -- maybe her next piece of writing should be an apology note. >> she apparently did go

doing just the opposite, forcing catholic nuns to pay for contraception? here to weigh in on their fight for faith is fox news senior judicial analyst judge andrew napolitano. sounds like he believes in freedom. just not religious freedom. >> apparently not. obamacare, the 2,# 700 page statute with another 15,000 pages of regulations, has a lot of requirements it imposes on people and institutions. and if an institution employs 50 or more people, it has to provide those people with health care that afford, that offers sterilization, contraception and abortion. a group of nuns, the little sisters of the poor, who have taken vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, have said we don't believe in this. the catholic church doesn't permit us to believe in it. it doesn't permit us to spend our money on it. give us an exemption. the president gave an exemption to labor unions.
3:47 am
the president gave an exemption to certain corporations. the president delayed the onset on difficult to comply with regulations for his political pals. he is resisting mightily these nuns. why? >> yeah why? it is very clear they don't believe in abortion, don't believe in contraception. >> they condemn it and the church condemns it. spoeuf -- >> i've heard a story that the administration said ladies sign this waiver and you're off the hook but they won't do it because they stridently don't believe in any of this. and you have taken a look at the document from the administration and they are asking the nuns to do something that is crazy. >> the government revealed that it asked the nuns, each of them individually, to state in writing what their religious beliefs are. that is reprehensible that the government would ask a person in america to do that in order for them to have the freedom to practice their religion.
3:48 am
here's the problem. barack obama gives people exemptions from the law based on their politics but not based on their religion. and the religion, the freedom of religion, the right to practice your religion, the free exercise of religion is expressly protected from government interference in the constitution and he doesn't care about it. >> you feel so strongly about this that you have taken to the pages of the "washington times" today. you've written a great op-ed. if you would, would you read this excerpt in the paper today. >> if the government can tax you and me and selfless nuns for fidelity to long held religious beliefs while exempting others because of the fleeting political beliefs, free exercise of clause of the first amendment is meaningless. i've been ranting and raging against the n.s.a. since june. this got to me when i read the government's brief
3:49 am
against these nuns. >> if you would like to read the whole article go to fox news.com and you'll see the judge's opinion. and it is a good one and a lot of people feel exactly the same way. >> thank you, steve. >> e-mail us about that. that seems odd, doesn't it? has your child ever gotten a hold of your smart phone and you spent a lot of money on apps you don't want? parents, you payday may be coming. stick around for details. speaking of kids, has your child ever acted like this? >> hey dad -- >> here we go again. >> all right, sweetheart. daddy will get your golden goose as soon as you get home. >> no. i want one of those. >> the tips to teach your children appreciation. that's coming up.

thank you? >> what do you say? >> but there is something to training, training up a child as opposed to down a child. most of us train down a child. we do too many things for our children, we do their science projects. we give, give, give, give. my bride and i, we give our grandchildren little treats, but we wrap them with a $10 bill. the treats for them, the $10 is for them to find someone who could use that $10 bill and then they write it down. we've had the cutest experiences with that. >> this is one of the tips you give in terms of teaching gratitude to children. it actually helps them, even in those powerful moments they may have, to have perspective. what other tips do you have? >> they need experiences in giving. a kid doesn't understand -- appreciate anything you give them if they don't have the personal experience of giving to somebody else. your kids are going to a birthday party. moms get the gift, give it to
3:55 am
the kid, wrap it up and say giv. what about the kid working for some of that and having a piece of the action? >> how do you do that, give back to the family? >> everyone has jobs. when the nine-year-old doesn't clean his room, you hire the eight-year-old and pay for it out of nine-year-old's allowance. >> so no celebration party when they do the right thing, right? >> no, no celebration party. your kid brings home five a's and a b, good job. looks likes all that work you did really paid off, honey. congratulations. that'sen couragement. praise is oh, we're so proud of you. we're calling grandma right now. shear $10. it backfires. >> encouragement, not praise. >> it seems like you want your kids to grow up well round, but at the same time, a lot of us are helicopter parents. they wind up without the gratitude. you see what kids need in a good dosage is vitamin n. >> which is no. no, we're not going to go there. no, you're not going there. no, we can't afford that right

4:01 am
critics. >> and a home plate helmet toss leads to, believe it or not, a lawsuit. now a little league coach wants his own player, 14 years old, to pay up. a lot. did he take it too far? we're going to report, you decide. "fox & friends" hour two for this thursday starts right now. >> this is rob lowe and you're watching "fox & friends." thank you very much. welcome aboard studio e. we've got in brian kilmeade's place, clayton. >> nice to see you. thanks for having me. >> you're here on a big day. we've been talking about the benghazi attack since it happened and four brave americans died. now just yesterday, the senate select committee on intelligence issued their bipartisan report. republicans and democrats got together, looked at all the evidence, the evidence the white house and the state department would give them. they still had been stonewalling on other stuff. what we now know is that those four americans did not have to
4:02 am
die. it could have been prevented. despite what you read in the "new york times" just a couple of weeks ago, al-qaeda was involved. it's a mess, as we look back. >> the actual committee found that the al-qaeda groups were involved in the benghazi attack and noted over a dozen incidents leading up to that, calls for increased security. that word denied. but let's flashback. we keep hearing, what does it matter? we heard that from hillary clinton, frustrated a ton of people, four individuals' lives were brutally taken that day. and shortly thereafter, susan rice -- remember this -- she not once, not twice, not three, not four -- five times had this explanation. >> this was not a preplanned, premeditated attack. what happened initially was it was a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired in cairo as a consequence of the
4:03 am
video. >> we have tony schaefer on immediately after that "new york times" report and he said this is unbelievable. my jaw dropped hearing this because all evidence pointed to al-qaeda. we knew number of offshoot groups were involved. that's what this intelligence committee found in their report, that it was a different group, it wasn't al-qaeda by name, it was different groups who had al-qaeda affiliation. furthermore, that it was coordinated, that is it might not have been the month long planning, but it was coordinated, when you have mortar attacks, firing on certain buildings that marines would have been jealous of hitting their exact targets. >> guys with al-qaeda affiliation were the leaders of the pack. that's one of the things that senator chambliss said. and the whole notion -- we heard the president and the secretary of state, we heard everybody in the administration say for a long time, it's that darn video. it wasn't and everybody knew it from the get-go. here is the senator from georgia, saxby chambliss.
4:04 am
>> i can tell you that within hours, saxby chambliss of the vice chairman of the committee knew it was a terrorist attack and within 24 hours knew that there was a suspended al-qaeda leader involved and maybe even more than one individual involved with an al-qaeda affiliate involved. as for what the white house knew, surely they knew more than i did, quicker than i did. >> there was a lot of questions in this report, too, as to why the military didn't have more of a presence there, why they didn't have extra security there. a lot of the blame from this report going to general martin dempsey as to why didn't we have assets in the field ready to go at that time in position and whether or not ambassador stevens had asked for help. it turns out he did ask for help a number of times. >> one of the problems was, the
4:05 am
c.i.a. did not reveal to the military, you know, we got an outpost. we have this place you should be covering. so what happened was you got this state department and they got people in libya asking for help. and they're being denied by washington. >> keep in mind, it is the purview of the department of defense to go ahead and provide more security. leon panetta then extraordinarily, even though people in the department of state are asking for more security? libya and benghazi, in august of 2012, a month before it all happened, he took away more security from libya. >> right. to your point, steve, captain chuck nash, he was on o'reilley, he explained how the requests were ignoreed. >> he had an embassy in tripoli had repeatedly asked for more security. he was denied and in some cases,
4:06 am
they didn't give him the courtesy of a response. so when outside of his agency a military officer, general ham offers him security, if he takes it when his own bosses have been saying no, you don't get it, you don't deserve it, what's he going to do? take it from the military? might look bad. >> he asked for additional help, security at the consulate. >> repeatedly. >> repeatedly. then when general ham comes to him and says, from the military, and says i know you didn't get that extra security. would you like some? twice he had to deny it because he would deny protocol in saying yes to that request. >> but who was at the helm and who could have increased that security? none other than hillary clinton. but her name only appeared once, apparently in this intelligence report. then we heard jay carney come out and say pretty definitively that they weren't finding any sort of connection to al-qaeda at the time. susan rice five times, five days later still saying, in fact, they didn't see the connection
4:07 am
to al-qaeda. i remember sitting with president obama on september 25th when he said they were still digging for information on what happened. they were examining what type of weapons were used to get to the bottom of it, to paraphrase there. a lot of time while that investigation was going on. still within that time. the f.b.i. was not there. >> right. >> 18 days later. >> so what was going on? let's take you back to that time. that was in september before a november presidential election. and the narrative from the administration was that bin laden was dead and al-qaeda is on the run. you know, if suddenly al-qaeda is al-qaeda, that changes everything and people are going to go, well, maybe we better give this guy a second thought. instead, it looks like they invented this narrative. it's all because of that video. and yet now, even though they had to get the information kicking and screaming, we now
4:08 am
know that apparently there were requests for more help and they were denied and al-qaeda, despite the "new york times," was involved. >> and we liberated libya as well. we wanted to keep that narrative going. let's check in with heather nauert. >> i have some news to bring you. we begin with a fox news alert. two women inside an indiana grocery store, a gunman's motive still remains a mystery. police say there was a man in his 20s who walked into martin's supermarket in elkhart around 10:00 o'clock last night. first he shot a worker and then walked 12 aisles over and shot a shopper. both women died. police arriving at the scene to find the shooter aiming his weapon at yet another employee. when he turned the gun on police officers fired, killing him. now it's unclear if he knew the victims. we'll watch this story. navy pilot is in critical condition at this hour after his faa team crashed off the coast of virginia beach.

thing. the u.s. attorney's office is saying it's not even close to enough. it's a few million dollars. they're saying mr. bellfort is using this movie to sort of grandize himself, get promotion for himself for his side business, which is where the money is, which is where he's not paying enough restitution. mr. bellfort and his lawyers are saying they're living up to their agreement, but there is a huge court battle going on right now in a federal court between the u.s. attorney's office for the eastern district and bellfort as to how much -- he should pay back. the u.s. attorney is telling us he's trying to get out from the initial restitution agreement. he's saying he's -- >> he wants to keep the money? >> that's what the u.s. attorney's office is saying. he clearly wants to keep the money. >> that's him right there? >> that's him. i covered this stuff when i was -- >> that's why you don't need to see the movie. >> i won't see it. i'll wait 'til it comes out on dvd or netflix. these guys -- i can't tell you who is right or wrong in this

what this young lady said in regards to brown people being bad. i'm not sure what film she saw. marcus luttrell was saved by a man named muhammad. he and his entire village of of ans who believe were the brown skinned individuals that she was talking about actually saved marcus luttrell. they used a very old custom which is an afghan custom which basically says if you come to me and you need help and i offer you help, you are now part of my family and i will defend you with my life and these afghans did defend marcus with his life. that's a big part of "lone survivor." so i'm not cheer on what she's talking about. >> she also went after the speech. she said she took to twitter to defend her comments and she said no, i'm talking about the
4:36 am
director and said for 90 seconds, there is an exchange back and forth where they're under fire, where there is all this swearing back and forth. sorry, but if you're under fire from taliban soldiers, do you think there would be some swearing? what was your response to that? >> i'm going -- i don't have a lot of response. i think it's a waste of time to engage in dealing with any particular critics. i'm just really proud of everything that we all did with "lone survivor." i'm so proud of marcus luttrell who has literally dedicated his life since this tragedy happened, since 19 of his brothers were killed, to telling the story, to preserving their story for the mothers and the fathers of these soldiers who were i think some of the very best and brightest that we can offer as a country. i'm so proud that marcus wrote the book, that marcus encouraged me to make the film, and now that so many people can see this film. again, there are always going to
4:37 am
be critics that want to criticize. that's pretty much what they do. but the film played very well last weekend and i couldn't be happier for marcus and for the families of danny and matt and mike murphy and all the other soldiers who gave their lives for our country. >> i know for a fact that you got close to the families and you just mentioned matthew axelsson. we had his mother, donna, on our program just two days ago and she loved the movie. thought it was very realistic. you warned her it would be graphic. she knew that going in. here is a sound bite of what she told us a couple days ago. >> at the end of the movie, he shows still images of all 20 of the men and some of the images, they're in their military uniforms. sop of the images it's at their wedding with their children and i was sitting beside cindy matthews' while we were watching
4:38 am
this. when it came to matthew, they did a video clip from the wedding and that was the hardest because now he was alive again in movies. >> and later in the interview, she thanked you and the actor who portrayed her son for bringing him back to life for two hours. >> she's a wonderful woman. obviously very loving mother and when i read marcus luttrell's book, one of the things that i loved so much was that i was able to divorce myself from the politics of the afghan war and i think that what he did so well was to say okay, look. you might be for it, you might be against it. let's put that aside for a second and let's kind of agree that these were great men and these men had mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers and many of them had children who loved them very much.
4:39 am
these men went to that country for us. they went for our country. they would have gone for democratic president or republican president. they would go to protect you. they would go to protect me and these men gave their lives for that. and i believe it really is our responsibility as citizens of this country to at least acknowledge what these men and women are doing, to acknowledge the fact that there are bad people out there and there is a great need for people like matt axelsson, like marcus luttrell, like danny and michael murphy, men and women that are willing to put themselves in between us so that we can sit here and live our lives, and legitimate evil. these men deserve to be respected. we should understand how they lived and we should not be afraid to look at how they died so that -- as i would say to people, you're not criticizing the war in afghanistan enough. that's not really my goal with the film.
4:40 am
my goal is to show what really happened. what happens if you send men like marcus luttrell into harm's way? and if you are against the war in afghanistan, okay, that's fine. that's your right. but what are you doing about it? what are you doing to prevents men like marcus luttrell and matt and danny to have to go put themselves in that situation if you really believe the war is so bad? what are you doing? >> you highlight the incredible service and sacrifice of these men, with purely politics aside. that alone is a great service to this nation and it's why millions are showing up to the film and leaving with a new heart or deepened heart and why the families have been so moved by your work. i think this nation thanks you for that. >> it's my pleasure and my honor to do that. >> thank you very much. we know you're down in miami working on a new movie. peter berg, the director of "lone survivor," check it out. it's terrific and it is what
4:41 am
really happened that day. >> thanks. i was talking to a friend, former member of seal team six, said it is so authentic, what happens in the movie is just like what happens when you're pinned down in real life. >> and he was indents on making sure all those details were captured. it meant the world to him that the smallest detail was accurate as possible and i think it's a remarkable quality to have when you're doing something like you just said. >> wonderful for that movie being number one.

4:46 am
us to dissect all of this. >> good morning. >> seems like that would be the worst thing the "new york times" could do, attack a woman with cancer? >> one of the most extraordinary things i've seen in a long, long time. the "new york times" bullying a mother of three, in her 40s, fighting cancer for the last seven years, invasive breast cancer that's now stage 4, fighting for her life. i won't say she became an object of derision in his column, but pretty close. basically saying, well, sometimes you need to go gently into that good knife and substance. it all began with an article by his wife who is also a cancer survivor, in an english newspaper. that article has been taken down because of an investigation at that newspaper. but let's look and see what bill keller had to say in the "new york times." he said, my father-in-law's death seemed to me a humane and honorable alternative to the frantic medical trench warfare
4:47 am
that makes an expensive misery of death in america. adams is the standard bearer for an approach to cancer that honors the warrior, that may raise false hopes, that implicitly seems to peg patients like my father-in-law as failures and talks about his 71-year-old father-in-law succumbing to cancer and going gently into that good night. not working as a warrior. the point is that mrs. adams said, i don't want to be a warrior. i don't want to be a hero in cancer. i just want to tweet what i'm doing every day to inspire and tell others that perhaps there is hope and there is an affirmation of life. >> why the attack on her approach to dealing with cancer and just trying to live and, in fact, telling her how she should die? n mr. keller has been criticized in terms of the facts that he put forward in the article by the public editor of the "new york times," which is a tremendous slap in the face, especially for a guy who was the former executive and editor of the paper up until 2011.
4:48 am
it's about cultural elites. it's about telling people what they can do with their lives. it's about saying, i know better than this homemaker from connecticut raising three children under age 16 who is fighting mightily for her life, and then imply that somehow she's become some kind of paid flak for the cancer research industry like sloan certing. it's offensive to the nth degree. people have taken to twitter. she's gotten thousands and thousands of more twitter followers now and people have written to the "new york times." it's become really an international issue about what bounds are there for a columnist in terms of taking on a woman who wants to tweet about her fight for life. >> in a way, accusing her, it seems, of calling anyone else a woos for not taking the steps to get better. is this about money? i see the word expensive. is this about a system that
4:49 am
costs money to keep people alive and well? >> i don't understand the personal motivations. you're right, it does go to the issue of money. in fact, incredibly, it's somehow disparages mrs. adams for taking advantage of a canine support program at the hospital here in new york and who is paying for it somehow. and that the hospital is supporting her effort to raise money for cancer research as she's getting treatment at this institution, radiation, chemotherapy, one misadventure after the next. this is a courageous american woman in the mold of robin roberts, in the mold of geraldine ferraro and lots of people that you and i both know fighting for their lives every day. she should be honored. not disdained. it's worthy of public debate, but not public contempt. and certainly not in the pages
4:50 am
of the "new york times." this is a personal fight that deserves public praise and acclaim. not our disdain. >> well said. peter johnson, jr., thank you for bringing this to us. >> okay. coming up, do you work with someone like this? >> oh, my god, i had the biggest workload ever. i have the world's -- oh, my god, i have the worst client ever. >> cheryl casone up next with how to stop those negative co-workers right in their tracks [ male announcer ] campbell's homestyle. mmm! this is delicious katie. it's not bad for canned soup, right? pfft!

4:55 am
divorced. >> don't we all love the gossip? i love to, it's fun. but at work it can be a negative thing. especially when you're dealing with somebody who is always gossipping about your co-workers and what's going on. so what do you is challenge that person and say, really, where did you get those facts from? that's very interesting. is that going to be coming up, that person getting fired? is that going to be next week? do we have a date on that? you have to challenge that person. that's an effective way to deal with the office gossip. >> they're also related to your next one here, the downer. >> right. so look, we all have watched snl. we all loved debbie downer on "saturday night live," but nobody wants to work with debbie downer. >> i heard you were able to book sheryl for the show. that's awesome. >> really? she has so many requests and everything. we're going to have to spend more time -- what's the point. >> maybe that was donald downer. but look, these are the people that, again, you want to avoid working with them or engaging with them. if you have to work with them, you need to just have a
4:56 am
conversation with them and actually point out that your -- even if it's the co-worker or someone that works for you, you can say your attitude is bringing down the morale in the office. let's try and kind of see the glass half full if we can, if you don't mind. >> morale can also be a factor with this one, the victim. everything is always wrong with this person. >> it's always somebody else's fault, right? listen to this. >> the reason i brought you n i've been noticing a loft mistakes. what is going on? >> that was not my fault. i gave it to maria. >> obviously the victim, that person, somebody else didn't do their work, it wasn't me. you have to challenge that person directly, right in that moment you would have said, i've actually talked to your co-worker and truth be told, you didn't do the work and she did. there is a little bit of a lie going on here. but you have to bring these people out. >> cheryl casone g to see you. e-mail us, let us know which one of these people are you, the gossip, downer or you're not

ignored is the question? another scathing review about the number one movie in america, "lone survivor." this time accusing the director of showing, quote, brown people bad. american people good, end quote. moments ago we gave director peter berg the last word and you'll hear from him straight ahead. "fox & friends" hour three starts right now. >> this is kathy ireland. you're watching "fox & friends". >> turns out she's not from ireland. >> no. >> a lot of beautiful people welcoming us in this morning. rob lowe, kathy ireland. 'cause i'm here. they needed to elevate it. >> listen to you. >> specifically requested. >> that's right. >> brian is not here, so i'm sitting in. thanks for having me. >> it's been great having you. we seconds ago played that sound bite of hillary clinton famously saying in sworn testimony, what difference does it make anyway, regarding benghazi.
5:02 am
i'll tell what you difference it makes, because according to a brand-new bipartisan report from the senate select committee on intelligence, here is the difference it makes. had somebody listened to the diplomats in libya and had the department of state and the military provided more security, those four americans would be alive today. that's what difference it makes. those four people were killed in benghazi because they did not get the security they needed and that is going to be a problem not only ultimately for president obama, who is in the midst of a big runup to the big election eight weeks later, but also to hillary clinton who wants to be president. >> but will it be for hillary? she's not even mentioned hardly at all in this report, like one time in this report. so it seems like somehow there must have been some discussion between these bipartisan members of the senate to say, maybe we'll leave hillary out of this and point the blame in other areas, general martin dempsey, patrick kennedy, right underneath hillary clinton for organizing and fail to go
5:03 am
provide security there. jonah goldberg had this on the benghazi report and he is surprised, too. listen. >> it is a very political document. it is an amazing thing to have such a searing indictment of the state department and intelligence bureaucracy and hillary clinton's name i think appeared in the entire document once. the state department made all these mistakes, it did no independent intelligence investigation after this happened, after people died. 15 people have died, cooperated with -- cooperated with the investigations in libya. and there is no mention of hillary. basically barak obama is absent, too. it seems like part of the negotiation that led to this report was a way to avoid casting specific blame on anybody who matters. >> blame and accountability, something that was indeed lacking at the time and still now. jonah makes an interesting point there. is this just about playing
5:04 am
politics? really, marco rubio, he's saying look, let's get the context right here. there was an election going on. the truth in terms of what happened in benghazi and the deaths that occurred, brutally at the hands of enemy, that was just a little inconvenient and here is why. >> remember, this is in the middle of the presidential campaign. the narrative the president was putting out is bin laden is dead and al-qaeda is on the run. p that's your argument, you can't possibly say, al-qaeda just carried out an attack and killed four americans. so they clearly had a political motive for that narrative not to be the case. >> what was the narrative that came out? susan rice famously and in the early hours we heard from the administration, this is based on that video. they didn't want to say, look, our people over there have been begging for more security for a very long time because that would destroy the narrative that bin laden is dead and al-qaeda is on the run. what the senators really want to know is the day after the attack, the day of the attack,
5:05 am
there is a meeting at the white house with the vice president, the secretary of state hillary clinton, joe biden, and leon panetta, and briefly the president. at that meeting, is that where the marching orders for explaining how the attack, the whole video thing, was that hatched there? the senators and members of the house would love to know. but so far, the white house has stonewalled. >> and fox news channel from the very beginning was all over this story and other members of the media were certainly not. they didn't even cover it at all. it was buried on multiple pages deep in newspapers to find anything about it. now you have this report that comes out this week from the senate intelligence committee. where is the media now on this story? listen to bernie goldberg on "the kelly file." >> 35 minutes on the networks on monday and tuesday when this story broke, 35 minutes on the george washington bridge traffic jam and zero, zero time on
5:06 am
benghazi and no major newspaper covered it either. now, one thing i know for sure, even though this -- it isn't even speculation. we all know for sure. if george bush were president and he misled the american people for several weeks and his administration did, that would get some play in the media and on television. >> the networks did, after some of the coverage covered benghazi just a little bit. but can you imagine the coverage benghazi could be getting today if chris christie were the secretary of state at the time that this happened? >> and he closed the bridge at the same time for it. >> there is clearly a double standard. but you know that. we've been telling you that for years. >> yes. we have heather nauert. you have some headlines. >> we've been following a story out of indiana. a terrible shooting there last night. a fox news alert on this subject. two women gunned down inside an indiana grocery store and this morning the gunman's motive is
5:07 am
still not known. police say that a man in his 20s walked into martin's supermarket in elkhart around 10:00 o'clock last night. first he shot a worker and then he walked 12 aisles over and shot a shopper. both women died. when police arrived at the scene, they found the shooter aiming his weapon at another employee. when he turned the gun on police, officers fired on him, killing him. we still don't know if he knew his victims just yet. there is new hope this morning. amazing story. this is new hope for the family of a u.s. army soldier captured by the taliban back in 2009. listen to this. the military has now received a brand-new video that was believed to have been taken within the last month which they say proves that he is still alive. his family releasing a statement sending a message directly to him. if you see this, continue to st. your endurance will carry you to the finish line. breathe.
5:08 am
amazing. we'll keep watching that story. a navy pilot is in critical condition at this hour after his f a 18 crashes off the coast of virginia beach. the pilot was on a routine training mission when something went wrong with the plane. he ejected thousands of feet into the sky and watch this training video. it shows just how violent these ejections can be from these planes. he parachuted into the atlantic ocean and there was a fishing boat nearby that was able to rescue him. finally, "duck dynasty" is back and as promised, we are meeting a new family member now. season five premiering with the arrival of rebecca robertson. she's willie's adopted 24-year-old daughter. she just finished a fashion internship in los angeles. listen to this. >> you got something big going in l.a.? you got a big job lined up? >> not really. i kind of am thinking about, i don't know, just moving back home. >> really? >> and just hang out for a while.
5:09 am
>> awesome. >> how sweet is that? willie said he started to get a little suspicious that she might be staying for a while when she brought five suitcases to visit just for a weekend. those are your headlines. are you guys heavy packers? >> yes, i am. i think i pack more than my wife does. >> i overpack for the kids all the time. all right. heather, thank you very much. number one movie in america, "lone survivor" by a mile. >> it sold out this weekend, too. they were having to cancel other shows in the same building to make room for "lone survivor." >> yes. it tells the story that marcus luttrell tells and indicates the struggles they went through, sacrificing life for our freedom. a huge success in the theaters mainly because americans are rallying behind the idea of honoring those that made the sacrifice. but there are some that are not. liberal bloggers are going wild.
5:10 am
one from l.a. weekly had some sharp words for the film. >> l.a. weekly was just one of those free newspapers they hand out. here is amy nicholson, a critic for it. she says essentially, as the film portrays them, navy seals, their attitudes to the incredibly complex war on terror were simple. brown people bad. american people good. okay. so that's what she says in the pages of the l.a. weekly. well, peter berg, who is the director who she was aiming those comments on and at was on this program just about 35 minutes ago and his reaction to her screwy comments were these. >> i'm not sure what film she saw. marcus luttrell was saved by a gentleman named muhammad goolah and muhammad and his entire village of afghans who i believe were the brown skinned individuals that she was talking
5:11 am
about actually saved marcus luttrell. you might be for it or against it. let's push that aside for a second and let's kind of agree that these were great men and these men had mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers and many of them had children who loved them very much. these men went to that country for us. they went for our country. >> and they died serving this nation. it's a real story. >> yeah. clearly that writer, according to many, does not understand what they fight for. but certainly enjoys the freedom that come from that fight. we asked you guys to e-mail us what you thought about the liberal bloggers saying that this is either propaganda and specifically article we mentioned there. this is from shane. he says, a slap in the face to these bold men. the media must not have watched the movie because peter berg showed the goodness in the hearts of both our american soldiers and locals who saved marcus' life. jeff writes us, the four
5:12 am
seals in the movie put their lives on the line every day so we can be free, even if that freedom involves idiots degrading them and their service. >> the critics have the right to say whatever they want and it's brave men like these who make sure that we have that right. carey says, amy nicholson completely missed the meaning of that movie. and if she wasn't so uninformed, she would have gotten it. how ignorant. >> keep it coming. what do you think about the comments regarding brown people bad. american people good. she writes that was the seals' attitude in what happened in this movie, "lone survivor". >> well, in other news, are you one of the millions of victims of a target hack? if so, can do you anything about it? bob massi with the legal rights you have. >> how many drinks does it take before your memory starts to

numbers, stuff like that. they can screw up your life all over the place. >> that's the problem because what happens is the proprietary information that they receive, we don't know what and how in the future that's going to be used against us, which is one of the reasons why to target's credit, they immediately went on a mitigation type of stance saying look, we're going to monitor your credit free of charge for a year. they're putting things in place to show the public that, in fact, they want to mitigate any damage. the problem is, steve, many of us who did shop there and do shop there will never necessarily know how far this goes. that's why the congressional hearings are important 'cause we need to find out how far this thing is going to go. >> sure. and we love target. it's a fantastic store. >> love it. >> but next time go there and you swipe your card, you're thinking, is this safe? a number of people have launched a class action lawsuit. what do those people want?

>> i was there the other day and one of the customers said to the cashier, she said, wait a second. you didn't ask me for my i.d. or picture i.d that's how customers get it. here is a story about the class action. look, there is going to be a lot of smart lawyers that's going to delve into this which will help us understand exactly what happened. the thing that i want our viewers to understand, because there is some precedent on this, it's difficult to measure damage on this. we know there was negligence. we know there was an invasion of privacy. shear where there could be a problem. if through these lawsuits the lawyers find out that target knew or should have known that, in fact, there were potential breaches because of security problems, if, in fact, money should have been spent to make security safer for their customer, that's where they're vulnerable. that's where you get into things like exemplary damages and punitive damages. that's why these lawsuits are important for consumers.
