look for work in this economy. that number comes up to 12.7%. bill: how do you score this number. >> reporter: it would be difficult for the president to hold a pep rally with numbers like this. bottom line, america is still not going to work. the participation rate remains at generation aloes. earnings dead flat. no change compared to the month before. real unemployment ticking up. half of the jobs we are creating pay less than $14 an hour. they were hoping for a breakthrough today, it didn't happen. bill: are we treading water or going the other way. >> reporter: we established a new normal of just under 200,000

jobs per month. nowhere near what is required to put america back to work. bill: did you see any good news in this report? >> reporter: you can call 192,000 new jobs created good news because it's a slightup particular. bill: labor participation, 62%. that's the lowest we have been in a generation. >> people are just dropped out. they lost hope. they said it's not worth me going into this economy because the jobs are not there. it's not worth me going back because i'll only make $14 an hour. it's not worth it. this real unemployment rate and the participation rate is way down there. bill: the stock market will see

a record high. how did that happen? >> reporter: with a disappointing jobs report like this it means the federal reserve will keep interest rates way, way down there, that's good more the stock market. ' record high coming. bill: if you had growth perhaps that would not happen. stuart varney, fox business. martha: today we are learning new details in the deadly fort hood shooting. investigators say ivan lopez may have argued with fellow soldiers before going on a shooting rampage killing 3 people and injuring 16 others. what do we know about that argument? >> we don't know what it was about or who exactly it was with. the army seems positive low he

had one or more verbal fight before the shooting. as far as motive it seems to be tied to his mental health. friend in puerto rico says he was deeply upset by the death of his mother an was upset the army didn't give him more time to foe down there to grieve. they say there is evidence that his psychiatric condition was the fundamental call for the rampage and the trigger event was the confrontation on post. >> i mentioned there may have been a verbal altercation and there is a strong possibility that immediately preceded the shooting. >> reporter: we also don't know for sure why low he had a gun thursday afternoon. he hadn't told fort hood he had that weapon in the first place.

so why did he bring it here? was he looking for a fight? >> what about his facebook page? always an area of investigation. i understand there are some clues perhaps there, right? >> specialist low he made a chilling post on march 1, just a month before the shooting. it happens to be the same day he bought the gun used on the shooting on postal the samier to that sold nidal hasan the gun he used in the shooting. he wroi was robbed last night and i'm sure it was two flacos, green light and finger ready, as easy as that. i think this time the devil will take me.

a twister touching down in missouri and texas. watch here. sirens sounding the alarm as a funnel cloud swirls nearby. witnesses say we had little time for cover before they were hit with a wall of wind and rain and hail. >> what to do? i have never been in a storm like this. i'm not from here. >> the hail i bet you it was this big around. by the time i looked back my back windshield was already out. bill: what is it like where you are? >> reporter: there was quite a bit of damage on this one property, david miller's house. you can see this one travel trailer. it's upside down. there is also an suv. the window is blown out and

quite a number of trees just shredded, just in pieces. this is a poultry farm. the chickens and roosters. you have got geese out here. peacocks. they are running around wild. the coops. the closures they were in were destroyed. the owner tells me he lost about half of those birds last night after the storm, that he -- it was carry for him because he was not here. his wife and three kid were here as well as his father. his wife called last night and said there is a storm coming. he told her, get in the storm shelter. 10 minutes later she is calling back and said the power is out. the windows are blown, they did not have time to get into their storm shelter, but luckily they were okay, they had minor scrapes and cuts on their faces. but other than that they were

fine. and mr. miller'. he's just asounded, quite a bit of damage on their property. his neighbors, there are four others who are injured. we understand they are expected to be okay. one of the challenges for firefighters out here, there are quite a number of trees out here. they are on top of the road until they have a difficult time to get the folks out here. they literally have to cut through those trees to be able to come and help those people out. bill: it's stunning when you see a car or truck flipped on top of itself. what kind of warning did you get before this happened? >> reporter: folk here got a warning. the owners said they heard there was a store coming.

that it was coming in farmersville which is not too far from here. but they weren't exactly sure if it was a tornado or not. it happened so quickly they did not have time to go to their shelter. folk around here know what to do. it's spring and it's tornado season. they took shelter and again they are luckily okay. a lot of the material stuff can be replaced. bill: did you look at the radar system? that's a big storm. we'll check in with maria molina. martha: how long is your workweek? 40 hours sound sort of about right? obamacare is pushing congress to change the definition of what the full-time workweek is and why the white house is dead set against it.

dream won't be in jeopardy. bill: 18 democrats voted with republicans on this measure. will you refresh my memory? why are we trying to redefine the workweek from 40 hours to 30? >> the white house wanted to do that bates would extend coverage to people who work less than 40 hours. it would require he ploirs to provide health insurance or face a fine of $200 and up. the employers don't like it bates add additional costs and it would cause them to cut hour or cut employees. there was a huge fight about this back more than a year ago where you had companies, particularly companies the that hire fast food workers, fast food companies saying we are going to start cutting employees back to 28.9 hours a week so we

don't have to comply with this health insurance. companies like darden faced backlash, criticism from democrats in washington and people out in the public, newspaper editorials criticizing them for cutting back these hours when all they are trying to do they would say is stay in business and provide services at a reasonable price. bill: the democrats pushed back on this. this is jerry connelly from virginia responding to dave camp. >> how about the fact that 7.1 million americans have enrolled in this program you don't like that you want to call a failure? 7.1 million of our fellow americans beg to differ. bill: what they are saying on the other side is republicans are just trying another avenue

to tear apart obamacare. >> the president has delayed the employer mandate. what republicans are trying to do is mirror what the white house has done. this is where you find some irony. democrats want to run in 2014 as the party who's going to fix obamacare. when i have serious prove posals to fix obamacare and make a change that would make it easier for businesses to comply and need to less unemployment and lead to people not losing their jobs. democrats aside from a handful who signed on to this bill seem unwilling to do that. i think this makes it harder for democrats to seriously run in 2014. we want to fix it when they continue to oh poe these kind of measures that the wythe house hasn't done. there are a couple democrats in the senate who have pushed a

similar measure. but what you haven't seen is a ground swirl. only the president can make changes to this law, not congress. it's backwards. bill: the house can do whatever it wants and whether harry reid takes it up is another matter. would you expect him to take this up? >> no, they already made clear they have no interest in doing this. the on way they will do this is because there is a critical mass of democrats purposing for this because they are running for reelection in 2014. you have democrats in red states who are running saying they are going to fix obamacare. but harry reid is blocking this, the white house threatened to veto. it's clear the democratic leadership is not interested in fixing obamacare.

-- jameis winston. fsu mayor have violated tight the 9 rules. last september when the leon county office. winston may have thought this rape allegation and case was far behind him about it is far from it because the department of education is investigating these alleged allegations specifically delaying its investigation and meeting with winston alone to question about it. according to "usa today" sports, winston refused to answer any questions about the alleged rape of a fellow student in december

of 2012. basically taking the fifth. that student and her attorney lambasted florida state university for failing to forward her complaints to the state attorney's office for nearly a year with the state attorney himself also criticized. but also the tallahassee police department because the alleged victim claims when she first went forward with this the detective she met with said this is a big football town, are you really sure you want to go forward with this which the tallahassee department has denied. the police department is not part of this. this is the department of education and florida state university, if the university is found to have violated these title 9 the rules. we have now learned, there have

been student code of conduct allegations. they told police they witnessed win on and the girl having sex and casher tried to get in on it and tried to videotape it. all along winston maintained it was no rape, it was consensual sex. bill: folks thought that was over. maybe not. we'll see. walking and texting not only lead to embarrassing spills like thithis one ... it also leads to serious injuries and we have the numbers to prove it. martha: there is a growing evident to stop an iranian who helheld americans hostage in 199

see the damage from these tornado. an hour northeast of dallas, tornado touching down. no reports of injuries or fatalities. but some of this damage is just a stunning thing to see when you see cars and pickup trucks flipped off and homes ripped off their foundation. that is a big storm that's moving fast at a time of the year, early april where the warm air and cold air collides, and that creates the conditions ripe for tornadoes. especially the deep red stuff on the radar. martha: a growing number of lawmakers are joining the push to stop an iranian hostage taker from coming to america as the ambassador to the united nations. hihe was involved with the group

who took off our embassy in 1979. that group still has him on their website. senator ted cruz introduced bill that with stop the nominee from entering the country. he says it's proof the united states should not be negotiating with iran. >> this is yet another indication of how radical and anti-american iran is. this is not an accident that they nominate and name an admitted terrorist. someone who participated in holding americans hostage for 144 days, and they propose to send him as their ambassador to the u.n. to live in new york city in manhattan. that's completely wrong and it's designed to be a slap in the face. martha: while the obama administration says the proposal is troubling, they have not said

getter they will block this nominee. >> does the state department view of this as a slap to the face? >> we are not going to describe it that way. obviously it's troubling. >> do you have theup date. >> we don't talk about these cases individually. >> what you like to see an apology from this ambassador if he does go forward? would you like to see an apology. >> i'm not going to make that determination. martha: juan, what do you think about this? >> there is a law, and according to the u.s. law we have to under the 1947 deal with the united nations admit people who are representatives of member nations of the u.n. but the key is you don't have to

do that if the fellow has been found guilty of espionage and what we know is -- i think the law says national security threat plus espionage. we can make the case that he's a national security threat. that's why senator cruz has this proposal to change the law and i guess that's the way to go about it. i'm not sure you can do it unilaterally. martha: he said he has bipartisan support for this. his language would change the bill to "or" guilty of espionage. mary katharine, what do you think of this? >> we are a nation of laws unless you don't feel like following obamacare. i think senator cruz is probably going about this the right way.

it's my understanding it's tough to keep these guys out of the country. we have a lot of consular agreements. i think the important point is to shine a light on the fact that this is obviously a slap in the face and president obama will continue to tell all of us it's negotiating with these guys. the irony is he's happy to call republicans who disagree with him in america hostage takers not worthy of negotiating with but he's willing to let in an actual hostage takers. martha: many of these hostages worked for the state department. now we have the state department saying of their former colleagues back in the 70s, this is just the way it works. even though one of these people surround our own americans citizens blindfolded and marched through the streets. it's okay if he comes to our

country. grants we are the host country for the united nations and i agree there are rules. and i pointed out to ted cruz, there are probably a lot of people in the u.n. other countries are not happy with. but when you have literally taken hostages and held them for 44 days, are you going to try to work out global agreements everybody can be on board with? he's been the ambassador to italy and belgium for iran. so he has a history as a diplomat. the key here is even in terms of the people that you were just talking about, the people we are seeing on the video who were being blindfold and hard around as captive. they also have an issue about compensation because we are trying to recover some compensation for having gone through that ordeal and they are saying they don't want him in the country either. but i come back to what mary

katharine said. i think for senator cruz and many people, this is about the u.s. and obama administration negotiating with iran over their development of nuclear weapons and people feel like that's and futile act. >> it's the level of discussion about this that has a lot of people scratching their heads include something of these former hostages. try to put yourself in their shoes. if you were held for over a year by an individual and a group, and you knew that person was now -- you know what, is there not much we can do. he's going to come to the news, he did to the hold italians hostage. and we are supposed to be okay with that without making a strong statement saying we'll not accept this? >> he's probably living in pretty nice digs in not twist the knife even further. but i'm sort of disturbed by the fact that the state department, they are not known for making

strong statements and that's how ski ploam i works and it's annoying. the first time she was asked they didn't know what his background was. i'm pretty sure they have access to google. and that concerns me. i relate to your feeling that why can't we do more about this and i think that's why cruz is trying to put forth something we can do about it. will the president take him up on it. the fastest way to keep him out of the country is he donated to prop 8 and he would be out of here. >> didn't we let in the former president of iran? he was in that same group. martha: that's true, ahmadinejad. i think the lack of a backbone in terms of how we feel about this. and what we are willing to say about it. >> don't you think everybody

across political lines -- don't you think everybody is upset about this except the law is the law. martha: i don't think the law being the law prevents the president or the state department from standing up and saying what they believe about this individual. we'll leave it there. we are out of time. marchy catherine, always a pleasure. juan, thank you very much. bill: senator dan coats got into the wrong room on the hill. >> i just wanted to -- i just got a note saying i'm in the wrong hearing. >> okay. i got the right room number but the wrong hearing. >> that would explain why i didn't know anything about this letter. >> this is the first time this has happened to me but i hope it's not a precursor. >> you are always welcome in our committee. >> well, thank you. i saw some familiar faces.

themselves. we are not talking about machine guns. we are talking about a side arm. they are smart and they know who is shooting at them. bill: i want to you listen to general jack keane. >> can you imagine the first responders coming on a scene and there is people shooting all over the place and they have to determine who is friend and who is foe? i think the potential for lead fog more violence by arming everybody is rather significant. bill: you have heard that debate, what do you think? >> with all due respect, i respect him. i have military men calling our office. they want to be able to defend themselves and we are not talking about carrying m-16s. these guys are trained to know who the enemy is and who is shooting at them and i think it's disrespectful to their skills. they are young people. they are smart. they defend our nation. but when it comes to defending

themselves they have say you are not smart enough to do that. i disagree. the last 20 years since this prohibition has been in place more people have been killed, not less. i would like to see our young men and women defend themselves. >> you have 3 shootings in five years. members of congress -- one final point. you say this is a 20 year experiment that failed. i need a quick answer. >> clinton implemented, obama reinforced it in 2011. he's an anti-gun president. in chicago we have lots of gun control that doesn't work. we need to end this terrible experiment. bill: thank you for your time. i have apologize we are out of time but we'll continue to look at this. martha: there is a firestorm of controversy overtaking patent

when folks in the lower 48 think athey think salmon and energy.a, but the energy bp produces up here creates something else as well: jobs all over america. thousands of people here in alaska are working to safely produce more energy. but that's just the start. to produce more from existing wells, we need advanced technology. that means hi-tech jobs in california and colorado. the oil moves through one of the world's largest pipelines. maintaining it means manufacturing jobs in the midwest. then we transport it with 4 state-of-the-art, double-hull tankers. some of the safest, most advanced ships in the world: built in san diego with a $1 billion investment. across the united states, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. and no energy company invests more in the u.s. than bp. when we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. that's not a coincidence. it's one more part of our commitment to america.

fox news alert. disappointing job numbers as the struggle to put americans pack to work continues today. the unemployment rate for march was flat 6.7%. welcome everybody, brand new hour of "america's newsroom" i am martha maccallum. >> and i am bill hemmer. the real number includes the under empl und underpoem employed and that is 12%. house speaker john boehner saying house democrats have no way of standing in the way of common sense job standards quote, and i urge them to act

immediately. ed henry is live at the white house. m m m medocre numbers. what is the white house saying is positive? >> 19,000 -- 192, 000 jobs were on the market in the month of march and the february job improved. nancy pelospelosi said the econs moving in the right direction but congress must build an economy that works for everyone. she is talking about more work to be done. 3.7 million people have been out

of work for 27 weeks or more and those are folk whose have been out of work a long time. >> you have obamacare and there is going to be a lot of campaigning on that. but what about the economy? >> it is pretty clear when the job numbers come out and eric cantor is putting out a statement not reacting to jobs but pivoting to health care as the republicans believe that is more fertile ground. obamacare induced wage cuts, hurt the people that needed the extra income and democrats chose policiess that will eliminate hundreds of jobs. republicans want to make the mid-terms more about health care and democrats want to broad n it out and talk about the economy,

jobs and minimum wage and all of that. >> ed henry, thank you. the white house is now giving an official hard deadline for their enrollment extension. it will be this date. april the 15th. always a day that is in everyone's mind: tax day. the white house offered anyone who started the application to chance to finish the process with a couple more weeks. major broadcast networks denied the president's request to make a prime time announcement after they hit the seven million mark. let's see what bret baier thinks about this. good morning to you, bret. april 15th, a whole another reason to love that day. >> tax day and the final day for enrollment. it was because they want today get anyone in line or had trouble with the website or

glitches a final day. what the insurance companies need was a final day. they didn't need this enrollment period because they have to recalculate their period and having the 15th bow be the date allows them to look at the pool overall and make the determination for premiums in 2015. >> it will be interesting to see how they line up because the insurance executives say we will have a hard number how many people enrolleded in this program, right? >> yeah, they will know for sure. and they will also know the demographics and how many young, heathier people are in the mix and they will know how many people had insurance before, some of the numbers we have been trying to get from the ad m administration from the

beginning. >> what do you think of the other party? the ad mministration requested prime time for cut in and say the 7 million number was hit? >> just the process, each station makes their own decision when asked by the white house it too give the president prime time and each network, according the buzz feed, said no. that is striking if that is how the rolled out that, you know, there was a decision on the part of the networks not to give the president that time for this address. it says something about the analysis of the importance of that message.

>> when you look back at history with the primetime break-ins the only one i remember in the obama administration is when bin laden was killed. >> and we had syria as well. >> so that becomes the decision. how monumental is this announcement and does it merit that kind of break-in. >> exactly. and it is network-by-network decision but all of the networks said no. the republicans a jumping on that saying the president doesn't have the same juice on capital hill or with the media now. >> thank you, bret. fox news alert from afghanistan. this is an absolute outrageous. a soldier yelling alla got his

grade before killing two women reporters. killing a photographer and wounding the reporter as they sat. jennifer griffin has more at the pentagon on this. >> reporter: eye witnesses say the two women were waiting outside an election center in eastern afghanistan. a police officer with an ak-47 walks up to the back of the car and opened fire after shouting alla. one of the best war photographers in the world was killed and another person who was covering afghanistan since 1988 has been shot but in stable condition. her book is absolutely a must-read, bill.

there is no more seasoned journalist report who has covered afghanistan in the past 30 years than kathy ganon. >> you have known her for years? >> i met her in 1992 when she returned from afghanistan where another reporter had died in a helicopter crash. the ap has lost a number of people and suffered tremendous losses in afghanistan. kathy is the first western report in kabul after 9/11. she is one of the best reporters and a dear friend to me.

she would not be happy on the news of the eve of afghanistan's most-important election and it being about her would be upset. she would want people talking about the women of afghanistan and how their lives have improved since the taliban rule and their statistics on how thinks have changed since the united states troops have been there. 3 million girls are in school now and one were before. kathy would want the discussion about the election tomorrow and how much is at stake if the taliban turns to ruling >> so unnecessary. our thoughts go out to them. thank you, jennifer. there is now an underwat for search underway for flight mh370. crews deploying high tech

>> look at this video from china. this is video of a woman

reaching out from a collapsing building. she is one of five rescued. she is going to be okay. but no word on what caused the collapse. there is a stunning new report that is set to be released on how effective the cia's enhanced interrogation program was at catching terrorist mainly bin laden. the senate committee voted to make it public to the americans but diane feinstein said she was shocked what she read in the report. and others say it was a quote waste of time. >> the report is exposing brutality that stands against our isravalues and chronicles a

stain that should never happen again. >> this is a chapter in the past that should be closed however the general public has the right to know what was done and what is in the report. >> charles fad is a former cia operation officer and the head of the dwi terrorism unit and he is the author of "beyond repair". this report is many pages long and you heard the response from diane feinstein and she said when she red the details she thought it was shocking. what do you think about that? >> right. well, you know, i should say up front i am not a big fan of the enhances interrogation program

and never have been. this was ordered by the president of the united states and there were lawyers involved and both oversight committees were informed the entire time. so for her to stand up with mock o outrage and act like she had no idea what was going on -- she was part of the process that created this. >> i want to play a sound byte from a while back from a man who is supportive of the program and very much believes it led to the arresting of bin laden and knows back to the courier issue and inte intearigation he believes helped. >> it was essential in

preventing further attacks and give us the information to find al qaeda and they were involved in all of the al qaeda members we brought to justice. >> what is your response to that, charles? >> i think the vice president overstated the case. i am not trying to make a case we never acquired intelligence from these detainees. i don't think it was the element that is was needed to execute it successfully. >> we have this 6,000 page document and you are sensitive to the cia operatives that carried this out because they carried out what they were instructed to do and told there was legal standing to do it.

>> this is the central issue in my mind: if you want to say we should not have done it, fine. if you want to say we will not . but don't make the central intelligence agencies the scapegoat f scapegoat decisions that were made by the entire community. you are given an order and you have to think even if i am told it is legal i have to wait ten years when the political winds change whether i will be prosecuted. you cannot operat that way. >> i am curious about the specific name of the courier and some say it was this leaks the information and that led to the killing of bin laden. >> i think the operative

question is is that the only way we could have gotten that information and i would contend it wasn't. but again, this is history now and we adopted this program and we should now not be going after or disparaging the people that carried it out. >> thank you very much for coming on. familiar sight here. people texting while walking. you see it on the sidewalk all of the time. don't let that be you. a new report on why you might want to keep your head up while you are talking on your smart phone. >> lois lerner facing possible contempt charges for refusing to testify about the irs scandal. could shei go to jail?

this happens to be the same store where nidal malik hasan purchased the weapon he used to cairo out the shooting on the post in 2009. the military is trying to determine if an argument prompted the shooting. and there have been reports from his home town that ivan lopez may have been disgruntled with the army because he had difficulty securing time off to attend this mother's funeral. we know he went home to his offpost apartment hours before the shooting and his neighbor saw him and said everything seemed just fine. >> i saw him at lunch that day. and he came downstairs and you know, he was heading off to work and you know, i was like how was your day going and he was like it is going good. i am heading back to work and i will see you when i get home and

that was former irs official refusing to answer questions about a month ago and now a house committee plans to vote on whether to hold her in contempt. jay is the executive director of the american center for law and justy and with us out of tennessee, jay, how are you. good morning on this friday. >> good morning. >> what's taking so long? >> i hear republicans all the time say we'll hold her in contempt. why not just do it already. >> there were three months kind of lost here where there was negotiations going back and forth between lois learn's attorney and the committee council, trying to work out what's called a proper, where she would tell the committee in camera, no public first what she would testify to and an offer of immunity and she would testify. that is what's being gonated. remember, i was on your draft right before the hearing last month. i mean a day before, darryl isa

was convinced she would testify and the lawyers sent mixed email messages and ultimately, of course, she did not testify. so there's no choice. >> you're suggesting there's still negotiations. because i'm trying to figure out whether the committee members are crying wolf or not. >> i to don't have -- i'm handling the civil litigation because i'm sure there's dialogue between lois learner and her counsel symptom if not, if not the committee will set for a vote to hold her in contempt but that would take many months to fulfill. >> here is what the chairman says, darryl isa on the screen. documents and testimony. low with learner is a senior irs official responsible for conduct that deprived members to free speech and equal protections under laws. her refusal to meet legal

obligations has left the committee with no alternative but to consider a contempt finding. if that's the case from isa, will it happen this week? -- sorry, next week? >> i think there's a good chance that the committee will vote this week to hold lois learner in contempt. there's a legal issue with regard to whether she waived her fifth amendment privilege. i believe she did, made that pre-statement where before she said i'm going to plead the film or will plead the feather fifthe no irs ru regulations and rule. generally that's viewed as a whatever. that could be a legal issue in her contempt proceedings. she is a key figure, but she is not the only key figure. she's the oath figure, however, that has taken the fifth amendment in this process. she made statements to the department of justice in their ongoing investigation been she was not under oath at the time.

so it's an interesting dynamic. others have testified and of course emails pointed to her heavy involvement but other higher-ups, th, have said that. >> democrats contented proper procedure was not followed and you cannot proceed with immunity. we'll see whether they do that or not but who are the higher ups after learner that you remember to? >> i think there's one key maul that came out and that was an email to lois learner, one from lois learner to the fcc. that person needs to be talked with but i think the chief counsel of the irs and deputy chief counsel on an email to lois learner about this with corpscoreupon dense going back d fort. i think that points to a much higher link, if you will, as far as who is in authority and

control. the question was let's withs learner implementing a plan or create the plan herself? i don't think we have the anticipation to that. the maul indicates there were individuals in thief counsel's office involved to be brought before the committee. i will notice them up for depositions in our civil ct cond in that way as well. >> thank you, we'll see what happens. we'll see what the next step is on that. thank you. so here is a new reason not to text while walking. a study finding doing so leads to more injuries than distracted driving. what are the dangers -- hello? >> excuse me. i was testing hear. did you know that using your cell phone while walking is more likely to lead to injuries than cell phone use while driving?

so says dr. dietrich from the university of buffalo. he's a professor of emergency medicine there and research backs him up. more than 1500 injuries per year are admitted to emergency rooms with people using cell phone related use. in 2010 alone more than 1500. a recent study, a study at the university hospital shows that if you use your cell phone while you walk, get this, you are 60% more likely to veer off course and bad things can happen to you. >> hitting a car is probably one of the most dangerous things that can happen. and again, you don't have that protection sounding you, injuries to the pelvis, lower extremities are extremely common with these. i was in the emergency department today and had somebody hit by a car, actually at a low speed, but knocked the person down and the car ran over her. had chest injuries, fractures,

pelvic fractures and a left knee fracture as a result of this. >> this is dangerous stuff, martha. >> so what are the risks of being hit by a car? >> bellevue hot safer streets program in new york says you have a 4% chance risk. people hit by a car, 4% of the time were texting for talking on a phone when hit. now right behind me a car jumped the curb last year and hit four pedestrians but imagine if they were texting. over here, ice fell on a man just a couple of months ago and injured his face. i'm sure you remember. it is not a safe thing to do and i am recommending, don't do it. >> yes, it's like an addiction. we have to come up with away to get everybody to stop it. we've all been guilty at one time or another. thank you very much, mark. >> thank you. >> you can walk on that sidewalk now and see somebody doing it.

>> absolutely. >> many people would be. so a ceo forced out of a job because of his opinion. the $1,000 donation that caused him to leave. is that right? >> and a car leaves a tractor-trailer hanging off of a side of a bridge with the driver still in there. how they got him out, next. @e@

>> hanging around is right, now a great day. a crash in columbus ohio left a dangling over an overpass. the driver was pretty calm throughout the whole ordeal. fire crews managed to rescue him with a ladder truck. he's ok, not even other scratch, be probably a little rattled, though. it is a womanedder nobody was seriously hurt. they're investigating what caused the driver to lose

>> boomer talked about a lot of work he does with the march of dimes. he has a terrific foundation for his sun gunner. and. he said he was wrong, michael, should not have said it. >> we're all swooning over the baby, but what if -- i know this is a stretch -- the mets might find themselveses in playoffs and it comes down to a single game and it often does but what if it comes down to a single papal and the whole team suffers? the team he made a commitment to when he should have been booking the private jet, come back. this is why you're rich so you can do these things. >> a couple people said that, hire a nurse. the things from men and women sunning. brendan i kerr was the ceo of modzilla for two weeks. when it was found out he wrote a check for $1,000 six years ago in support of proposition a, that was it, the california measured that ban, same-sex

marriage. there was a ground swell from another website called ok cupid, popular online dating service and lead the charge and this guy resigned, as ceo of mozilla. is that right? what happened to free speech? >> i think actually we're seeing free markets at work because the reactions of his right was really a reaction to the business consequences that the company would face as a result of him being their leader. ththere has been problems that mozilla dealt with at the time but ike, at to that time, was the cto, not the ceo. and a ceo rests the values of a company and clearly -- >> so you're ok with his resignation, right? >> yes. >> now andrew sullivan, openly

gay. this is what he wrote, if this is the gay rights movement today, pounding our opponents more like the religious right than anyone else, then count me out. he wants to no part of this. was in the right move? >> this is beyond horrifying and distressing to hear a clearly scent say what's the big person by being forced pout. i have no problem with this. free markets, you're right, mozilla is free to do it but what a disgusting thing to do because of your personal political views we won't hire you. they say, quote, our organizational culture reflects diversity. they named their protection for religious use. unless we disagree. mozilla supports equalalty for all, except for you. >> michael, thank you for that and jessica, i'm out of time. we'll get to you next time. thank you to both of you. >> thank you.
