tv   Hannity  FOX News  March 27, 2014 7:00pm-8:01pm PDT

7:00 pm
fox news alert, we just got a report that crews searching for the missing plane have moved their search area about 500 miles because of a new lead based on this radar data. and welcome to this jam-packed edition of "hannity," now later, we'll bring you more on the mystery surrounding flight 370. was this terrorism? we'll check in with general tom mcinerney, and coming up, is harry reid's political career about to come to an abrupt end? also, an interview coming up tonight. and satellite data, possible debris from the missing jet continues to pile up but not one piece of solid evidence has been found or recovered. a japanese satellite spotted ten objects yesterday, thailand
7:01 pm
identified about 300 on monday. and this all comes after a french satellite pinpointed 132 pieces of floating potential debris. and that was over the weekend. joining us now, australia's catalina florez, great to see you, welcome back. >> reporter: thank you, sean, thai satellite imagery has now recovered 300 images in the southern indian ocean. they're from the french satellite imagery. that is now hundreds of clues waiting to be found in the southern indian ocean. but what is of course frustrating the search efforts is the weather. only four hours after the search reviewed yesterday it had to be called off because the weather was causing poor visibility and severe turbulence. now aircraft were turned back around straight away. but the ships do remain in the search area this morning. that weather is expected to hang around unfortunately for the next eight to ten hours and then authorities will make a decision
7:02 pm
on the search today. but every hour that is lost, every day that is lost at this point, sean, is crucial, because there are only ten days left until the black box's battery life runs out. >> all right, catalina, as always, thank you very much. we appreciate it. here for the latest on the search area we go to the "hannity" big board. by the way, former navy pilot, leah gables is with us. how many years? >> well, i was a navy pilot for 12, and served about five. >> all right, we're first told, we go out from here, perth, possibly 1600 miles. new discover, australia, images from france and thailand. let's talk about this area, now we were told that this area was what? 125,000 square miles. now it extends all the way out here in the indian ocean. that is a needle in the haystack if i have ever seen one?
7:03 pm
right? >> it is, sean, the best way to explain it to somebody who never has flown out at sea. but you're moving to a gray surface, if you have ever seen a lady drop an earring on a monocromatic carpet, it is hard to find it. i hear them say it is like mowing a lawn, using the human eye to find objects. you know, they have their sensors and surface radar and optical sensors that they can use. for the most part they're trying to find anything that is a part of the aircraft. >> the square mile area we're talking about, so if we go here to here, that is 1600 square miles, 1600 miles out from perth. now we extend from what is the same distance, right? then you add these two spots. and literally now if you make a circle now it is probably that big. now we also have the issue of
7:04 pm
currents. >> uh-huh. >> is this something possible that we may be able to find some floating debris, maybe a flotation device? >> sean, this is a very difficult task. and i know you know this, but let's not forget that the last known location of the airplane was way up here. the last point where we knew for certain the airplane actually was. this is all based on theory, based on some data from the satellite's so-called hand shake that they have come up with, and malaysia has come out with that they say determined on the satellite data that the plane crashed and everybody died. the chinese are asking for the data. they would like to see it. the family members who are potentially lost would like to see it. this is basically theoretical here, when i was spdeployed, tw other airplanes were above that crash. they never found anything but an oil slick. it is a very big challenge.
7:05 pm
>> let's go to some of the satellite images we're talking about here. because we have a lot of different areas. look at this. you were a pilot in the navy and flew this. we were talking about the debris we keep referring to, coming from china and france and thailand. these were small, small objects that we were looking at here. very, very small. what does it look like from the sky? >> well, from the sky it depends on the altitude you're searching from. we know they have had visibility issues in the search because of the bad weather. they have had rain, all kinds of issues. there are also ships out there looking for the debris. but to me, the satellite imagery, these are just clues, places that we can possibly look. and keep in mind these countries are looking at the satellite imagery to look at these places all based on the theory that this is the location where the aircraft was. >> interestingly, they have swells as high as 30 and 40 f s
7:06 pm
feet. i mean, some of this to me if i'm looking down as a non-aviation person, i would think oh, huge swells. is that a possibility or are they certainly objects, would you be able to pinpoint that these are objects here and here and here. >> the way i would look at this is intelligence information for me. so i would lean on the analysts to tell me what they're actually seeing from the imagery and then i would go to the location and look for any type of object that might indicate that the plane had crashed there. but again, satellite imagery based on the theory of where the plane crashed, still a lot of things they're going to have to figure out here. >> you know, it is very hard when they tell the family of the victims definitively, this plane went down, but yet there is no floating device whatsoever. every time they get in, you would think a flotation device at least one could have been found. >> you would hope that one would be found. but if my ejection seat, we had
7:07 pm
smokes, and flares, things to help the search and rescue teams find us if we crashed into the ocean because it is such a big challenge. i know you mentioned there is no solid evidence at this point. there is also the problem of where the investigation is going and most recent on this investigation is usa today is reporting that the malaysian official that is inside the investigation and saying that it is now centered on the pilot. and yet there is really no actual evidence, no proof that he did anything wrong. >> great reporting and what a great life experience. and you've added a lot to this discussion, we really appreciate it so much, leah, thank you. and 20 days after the disappearance, nothing has been ruled out as to why the plane went missing and why the investigation is reportedly focusing on the pilot while his son is now breaking his silence and defending his father saying there is no way the plane was intentionally broken down. this comes after defense secretary hagel says the u.s. still cannot rule out terrorism. >> i don't think at this point
7:08 pm
we can rule anything in or out. >> i think we have to continue to search as we are until we have more information. we don't know. >> all right, here back with analysis fox news military analyst lieutenant general thomas mcinerney is with us. of course we can't rule out the possibility of terrorism. what is, in your experience, with all the different satellite images general what do you make of that? especially in light of the fact that you had some connections and some contacts telling you it might in fact have been taken to a place like pakistan? >> well, i think with the inmarsat data that we have had, sean, i think we have to look there. but i think people are starting to realize we're going to get a lot of satellite data. there will be a lot of objects out there. and pretty accurate coordinates but we're not finding anything. so i happen to agree with secretary of defense hagel that we can't rule anything out. i still believe we need to look in the northern hemisphere, no
7:09 pm
one has inspected any international forces, no international organization has inspected the pakistani air fields or the iranian air fields or anything like that. so i don't think we can rule anything out including terrorism. we also have to look at patterns of behavior on the pilot and co-pilot. and they have some very interesting patterns of behavior despite what his son said. first of all, the captain of an airplane is in charge if anything goes wrong. if it is mechanical or something like that, he still must take certain actions. there were actions that were taken prior to the transponder being turned off. and the acars being turned off that made the airplane being stealthy. and that is why it complicates it and puts this back on the pilot. he was having marital problems, he was having political problems. his co-pilot had memorized the
7:10 pm
quran. so there are things we need to look at in the pattern of terrorism. >> and more on the tv, democracy is dead. we have the connection to anwar ibrahim, who had been convicted to time in prison. that is not anything certain but shows he did certainly have a political bent. general, i want to know why and how you came by your theory and what we need to look into. and you know, what are the percentages and odds of pakistan? you were very honest, you said 50, 60, 70%, you never said definiti definitively. but you had sources who helped you draw the conclusion, and i
7:11 pm
think you were criticized. >> well, anybody can have an opinion, remember the satellite imagery that was not correct, then we found the last transponder position, and the last skin paint that pointed towards india. we never saw a turn to the south. inmarsat was giving us a northern sector and southern sector, every bit of information that came out was pointing towards the northern sector, singapore international air ways, flight 68. you lay that inmarsat sector across it with the route singapore 68 flew it was exactly on line. so all of those things to me were pointing in a direction. again, i don't know for sure. but i think that secretary hagel's statement yesterday clearly tells me, and he owns all the sensors, clearly tells me that he has not given up on the northern sector. >> all right, general, thank you
7:12 pm
so much for being with us. we appreciate it. and on this news night, on "hannity," the investigation you will only see here on this we'll go back to the "hannity" big board. could senator harry reid's political career be coming to an abrupt end? with a series of corruption charges, you will hear from the journalist who is investigating this from the start. and ainsley earhardt hitting the red carpet on the premiere of "noah." we'll hear what russell crowe thinks about all this attention on the new blockbuster. fighting constipation by eating healthier, drinking plenty of water, but still not getting relief? try dulcolax laxative tablets. dulcolax is comfort-coated for gentle, over-night relief. dulcolax. predictable over-night relief

7:15 pm
tonight we have an in-depth investigation into a scandal, one that could mean the end of harry reid's political career, involving payouts upwards of $31,000 in the past two years alone. here is the very latest with the man who broke the story, john rolston is with us, thank you for joining us. >> thanks for having me. >> now, originally it started with $17,000, you broke it. it is a lot deeper than that. tell us what you found. >> the $17,000 was just the last amount with the federal commission. and sean there was almost that much money the end of 2012, same company, named for his granddaughter, ryan elizabeth reid, hard to find out the company is for his granddaughter because the company doesn't have the last name. we did some digging to get the
7:16 pm
information. >> this is really the tip of the iceberg, there is also deeper history here, one thing that interested me most about harry reid. i like the 2006 real estate deal where he literally was able to collect $1.1 million, the $700,000 profit. he gained that in the sale of land in 2004 even though he personally did not own that property for what, over three years? does that seem questionable to you? >> i don't remember all the details of that, sean, that involved a very close friend and lobbyist by the name of jay brown if i remember correctly. and there were a lot of questions raised about that. but there were questions raised about harry reid's associations both with his close friends and lobbyists back here and his children at least four of who are at least directly or partially involved in politics. >> what do you think about the deal harry reid had to deal with, the planned golf course?
7:17 pm
environmentalists were against this golf course, he used his connections and lo and behold, there was a golf course. >> there were contributions, and reid said he had no knowledge of what widemore was doing. harvey widemore was a huge developer in nevada, and got help with the federal government or at least tried to get it, sean, harry reid distanced himself from widemore as soon as he got in trouble with these campaign contributions, he essentially went to harry reid and said i can raise you $150,000, and then didn't. turns out they were conduit contributions. >> all right, conduit
7:18 pm
contributions, all right, take a listen. >> your decision to reimburse your campaign $17,000, was that an acknowledgment that it was wrong to use your granddaughter? >> no, in fact, it was not. we can play with all the rules that were set. i just wanted to avoid, i am very fortunate i can write that check, it is all done. everything was complied with beforehand. i'm not going to -- read my statement. >> all right, joining me here at the "hannity" big boards, co-host of "the five," and also a lawyer, kimberly guilfoyle. let's look at the letter he received. and it goes on to say will you please clarify the description of holiday gifts? >> yeah, when you see this investigation it is not just smoke, there is a full-blown five here because it is not one isolated incident.
7:19 pm
there were a number of things that rise to the potential of being illegal. that is why there is this investigation, i'm happy they're checking it out. this is something he is obviously concerned about. we do know he has made some payments back because he has been caught. and you heard the report he was disingenuous with the people, regarding the identity of his granddaughter. >> and the history goes on here. we'll move a little further. the friends of harry reid report some reimbursements, you see the name of his granddaughter sn. >> ryan elizabeth is his granddaughter, the daughter of his oldest son. and purposely the last name reid was left off, which was difficult to find out the true identity. >> which was by design. the other screens here, $11,370 in holiday gifts.
7:20 pm
>> from her jewelry company, so that was the beneficiary of his granddaughter to be able to get that money and her theater company, too. >> right, then of course we have 536,000 more, $17,000. >> he is essentially conceding that by paying that back. >> all right, so you have 17,000. then you have $9,000, 5,000 theremore in 2013. according to buzz feed, the jewelry, just to buy the original? >> it is pretty substantial, he should know better than that, somebody who has been in office for along time. it is pretty sloppy. >> sloppy or corrupt. >> it is corruption, unethical, flat out wrong to do this. he should be caught. whether he will be held legally
7:21 pm
accountable he will face the authorities. >> we don't have enough time to get into all of this. this is only part one of an investigation we're going to do. somebody buys a house, you haven't known them, makes $700,000. >> how is he getting this money? where is he getting it from? it is like he gets by with a little help from his friends and then some. the public really needs to take a good look and question whether this person is suitable to be in office. >> i think he may be calling kimberly one of the best attorneys in the country. and coming up next, a "hannity" exclusive. >> the unfortunate thing is you have a whole bunch of people infected by the stupidity. and they seem to think somehow this is a bad thing. ainsley earhardt crashed premiere of the new movie, "noah," and more on the
7:22 pm
controversy of the film. and later, unions could be involved in college sports, coming up here on "hannity." are you still sleeping? just wanted to check and make sure that we were on schedule. the first technology of its kind...

7:24 pm
all right, the new movie, "noah" is stirring up serious controversy, the victories of the film which chronicles the story of the bible say it is not religious. they are outlining what they say is an entirely different and inaccurate version of the events. meanwhile, the director and the self-proclaimed atheist calls it the least biblical film ever made. so why did he make a film about noah? and we have ainsley earhardt at the premiere last night to hear what the actor said. >> there was a little bit of controversy.
7:25 pm
>> that is what everybody said. >> what is your reaction? >> i think it is foolish. they haven't even seen it. >> did they stay accurate? >> there was not much about noah in the bible. >> i would say it is fill in the gaps. >> we're talking about the word "god" was not used. creator was used? >> we're taking a half step back from it being a christian story, a jewish story, a muslim story. >> some are so conservative, they wouldn't even accept today's day. there is no perfect way to do it. in order to put it on screen you have to pick and choose. >> the writers replaced god with the word "creator". >> yeah, and there is -- believe it or not there are actually bibles that have done the same thing now. >> you were talking about critics of the show and you said it is stupid of them to be critical.
7:26 pm
i just wanted to get your take on that. >> well, you know, it is kind of strange when people are willing to put their stamp and name to a grand statement about something they have not seen. the unfortunate thing is you have bunch of people already infected by the stupidity. and they somehow seem to think it is a bad thing. >> all right, editor at large, jonathan morse, and ainsley earhardt, we'll start with you and your report. not christian, not jewish, univer universal? the story of noah comes from the judeo-christian story. >> that was his response, i wanted to make it universal. and the creator can be jewish, muslim, christian. i read the story of noah today
7:27 pm
and counted the number of times god is used. >> great for you, how many? >> all right, god is used 20 times and lord is used 29 times. so 29 times it is used. the question was, many christians are asking after they have heard about god not being used is how can you write the book of noah without god? >> without using the words actually used in the bible. all right, i will be honest, i have been looking forward. i want to see the movie. the passion of the christ is one of my favorite movies. i love gladiator, you saw the movie last night. we're really good friends, and we think a lot alike. >> yes. >> and you just told me something i didn't want to hear. >> you're not going to like it. because it is a complete reversal of what the biblical narrative and sin is, the word that is used in hebrew, meaning
7:28 pm
the earth was corrupted, but typically used to mean violence, idolatry, the great sin in this movie, the worst sins, eating a hamburger, really -- >> we are destroying the planet to build the arc to save humanity. >> no, it is all these city dwellers came and ruined the environment, over-population is a big problem, so is the eating of animals, the degradation of the land, the fracking. the idea into all of this is god is taking revenge and the real kicker on this, the part that is really disturbing, and spoiler alert here. the part that is the kicker, the great moral conflict for noah becomes whether to kill his own family inside the ark after his family has perished. the scene is him standing over
7:29 pm
two newborn babies. >> that is closer to the story of abraham. i did go to a seminar and studied theology, as you know, father morris. we're friends and i have no doubt i will probably see it the same as ben if i even go now. >> here is the issue. the story of noah is a relatively small story, three chapters in the book of genisis, so you need creative license, did it happen exactly as the passion? no, and that is okay, it is just a film. but when you turn the story on its head, when you reverse the understanding of sin, when you change the nature of god. when you have the great moral dilemma being killing grandchildren when the bible didn't even mention they existed. all he said was bring your three sons and their wives onto the ar
7:30 pm
k.and now we have the unfortunate problem is that not that aronofsy is a bad guy, i have no idea if he is or not. when you have a story not based on faith, you're not goinghave >> steven baldwin is a good friend, he said by the way to tell you hello. he is a very strong christian and said this is at least opening up the conversation. at least that kids can go and see the movie. >> ben is rolling his eyes. >> it is ridiculous. >> he was walking the red carpet. >> you should hear the actors saying, nobody has seen it. okay, i have seen the movie, it is like making a movie about martin luther king jr. whereinhe is an advocate for racial
7:31 pm
inequality. villain says that, you're not supposed to have mastery over all of these things. >> the hopeful part of all of this is that we're talking about the bible, no doubt. what it means that is the real story still has great weight. 2,000 years later -- >> how do you have an atheist who says it is not about the judeo-christian ethic. it is to be universal. would i be wrong in saying it is a mockery? >> it is a pagan myth. i'm probably more cynical than father morris. >> willful ignorance. >> that is the forgiving side of you. >> it is to make money, take biblical stories and make money. >> she went to the bible, how many times do they mention god? >> 20 times god, nine times lord. and the writer said bible is full of tremendous stories,
7:32 pm
great narrative, and epic tales. >> absolutely, but tell the story. guys, really good stuff, i love russell crowe, great story, gladiator. i probably will go see it and i'll write you first, ben. all right, coming up next on "hannity." the administration is now resorting to an honor system to enforce it. what the hell is this? a joke? >> all right, the speaker unloads on the latest obamacare delay. and brian kilmeade, they're here to react to this. straight ahead on "hannity." you've reached the age where you know how things work. this is the age of knowing what needs to be done. so why let erectile dysfunction get in your way? talk to your doctor about viagra. 20 million men already have. ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough for sex. do not take viagra if you take nitrates for chest pain;

7:39 pm
pro-second amendment, and i hate obamacare. >> it doesn't do anything for me, the ad. i don't know, it just really -- i wasn't feeling it, sean. >> i think obamacare, look at what was said this weekend. well-respected democratic pollsters, she said don't go near it. >> she said stay away, talk about how it was a problem from the very beginning. look, i think she is right. i'm not sure democrats have a lot of room to run because democrats own it. in part that was highlighted again because of the shutdown, the arguments made last fall. there is nowhere for the democrats to go. it is a democrat bill, passed in a bipartisan way. >> this one, you can hear pigs squealing. >> i grew up castrating hogs on an iowa farm, so when i get to

7:42 pm
in. they start off favoring republicans already. and then a lot of these states -- there is a referendum on obamacare. >> i always felt you were a very intellectually honest democrat, even though you beat me up on occasion. but should democrats now just say it didn't work? 29 delays, four years later, it was never popular and less popular now. cut your losses? >> i don't think democrats have completely given up on it working eventually. >> should they? >> no, i don't think they should. if it gets signed up -- 55 million people, it is within the range of what obama said it would be. >> this is liberalism, this is the holy grail, they screwed it up. >> it didn't work. >> a predictable result. >> the problem with democrats defending this at this point they're not only defending the substance of the law, as you point out overwhelmingly people don't like the substance of the law. now they're in the position where they're defending the

process. so you had the president, if you like it, you can keep your doctor. now you're having delays of the deadlines and basically lifting of the enrollment deadlines or the extending of the enrollment deadlines, now democrats are defending the process. it is actually what people hate about washington and what they hated about washington in 2010. >> you said such nice things about kirsten, i don't know if i can do it. we're running out of time. the issues this week, the minimum wage, overtime thing. that woman, the democratic pollster from the battle ground state, she says mend it. don't defend it. >> it worked in florida. >> that is what they're going to do. they can't run favorite. >> wasn't that the argument in the florida 13 -- >> if you look at the polls, when people are asked do you want to get rid of obamacare, they say no, we don't want to get rid of it. we want you to fix it. >> i think most americans would be happy to start over. for the very thing steve
