3:00 am
>> jeffrey says it is not hate. it is heritage. >> thank you to evan who responded. appreciate it. we'll see you back here tomorrow at 5:00 a.m. "fox & friends" starts now. bye. good morning. it is wednesday, october 1. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. we begin with a fox news alert. ebola here in america and this morning a warning to you, the very deadly and contagious virus may have spread. a hive report from the hospital straight -- a live report from the hospital straight ahead. >> the federal government getting involved now in the redskins controversy. the f.c.c. perhaps ready to ban announcers from saying the name "redskin" or face a big fine. >> as the secret service tries to explain how a guy with a knife ran into the east room, lawmakers offer a simple solution. >> have you ever heard of these guys? >> this morning the big question: how did a
3:01 am
convict with a gun get face-to-face with the president in a separate incident? but be happy everyone. mornings are better with friends. >> i'm bobby bowden. you're watching "fox & friends." >> bobby and everybody else, you're watching "fox & friends," and today we are clad in pink because october is breast cancer awareness month. >> it is. we encourage you to wear pink with us today. pink pajamas. throw on a pink tie like the guys. >> all of out there have a big head start on us. we had to remember at 3:00 in the morning. look at us and say now i remember why we should wear pink today. >> we'll remind you throughout the hour as well. >> this is one of those days where there's a lot of news and it starts in texas. >> a fox news alert. the first case of ebola found in america. at this hour the man this deadly disease in isolation at a
3:02 am
dallas, texas, hospital. that is where we have a reporter live. >> what is the latest on this very scary news? >> reporter: the patient in isolation in i.c.u. because of privacy laws, they can't disclose his condition or his nationality or age. but we can tell you that, they're telling us that he is communicating and even saying that he's hungry. here's what we know. this is the time line. the patient left liberia on september 19 arriving in dallas on the 20th. no symptom for four days. on friday, september 26, he came to the e.r. here at the presbyterian hospital. doctors say he showed no signs of anything unusual, nondescript systems, they say. lab results, they were not impressive as they called it. he did not say, though,
3:03 am
where he had traveled. he was given antibiotics, sent home. two days later on sunday, september 28, he was brought back to the hospital by ambulance to the e.r. he had diarrhea and other symptoms. it is important to know ebola is not an airborne virus. people have to come in contact with either blood or bodily fluids. >> we protect people in this case by making sure we find the contacts, identify them and make sure they're traced every day for 21 days. if they develop a fever, they're immediately isolated. >> officials here working with the c.d.c. to identify those who came in contact with him, including family members as well as other patients in the e.r. who were here on friday. again, they don't believe that those folks are in immediate danger, if you will, because of how this
3:04 am
virus is transmitted. >> live in dallas, texas, at the hospital where -- this is an interesting bit of trivia. guess where my daughter works in dallas, texas? across the street from that hospital. i was talking to her last night. she said people down this, are you kidding? ebola is in america? we heard the president say it wasn't going to come here but it's here. the guy who heads up the c.d.c. with us in about an hour from now. he says they're on it. you don't have to worry. >> i watched him about 6:00 yesterday. the press conference was almost surreal, in the phone, on person, anybody else come in. we got it under control. got to run. >> it is interesting as we move into our next story, the president is actually visiting with the c.d.c. to get information on this situation. and this is where a huge
3:05 am
secret service breakdown took place worse than we ever thought. apparently a convict came within inches of our president. this is two weeks ago. and no one even knew he had a gun until he ended up turning it over. shocking. >> this is on the heels of the guy who ran into the east room of the white house with a gun, omar gonzalez, you saw right there. what's extraordinary about this case is -- and jason chaffitz found out about this from a whistle-blower. some people are trying to throw the director of the secret service under the bus. the president is in an elevator in atlanta and a security contractor who had three felony convictions over in the corner he's got a cell phone and taking a picture of the president. one of the secret service guys says stop that. he keeps doing it. the president gets off the
3:06 am
elevator and the agents go over and say what is your deal? they ran a background check, found out he had three convictions for assault and battery. they called his supervisor and the supervisor said you're fired. then the guy goes, all right, fine, then i'm going to turn in my weapon. then they go he had a gun? are you kidding me? >> not until that point did they know. >> no idea. a huge breach. you understand why the grilling took place with the head of this department there on capitol hill. this is a systemic issue here. why aren't they taking it seriously? we're talking about the director, judy pierson. >> don't let somebody get close to the president. don't let somebody get close to his family. don't let them get in the white house ever. if they have to take action that's lethal, i will have their back. >> this, ladies and gentlemen, is not a democratic issue. this is not a republican issue. this is an american issue.
3:07 am
this is also an issue of national security. >> have you ever heard of these guys? i wish to god you protected the white house like you're protecting your reputation here. >> this is unacceptable, and i take full responsibility. and i will make sure that it does not happen again. >> all these excuses. moral is down. some actually said sequester cut into the funding. the guys are overworked. a lack of leadership. just unbelievable because the secret service, if you come to new york when the president comes here, everything stops. innocent people can't get anywhere and you almost think it's overkill. on the other hand, you find out there's no excuse for the fact that this guy, omar gonzalez, gets over the fence, gets into the house, across the lawn with the ushers deciding to suppress the alarm as he gets inside. off-duty secret service officer is the one who tackles him, who is the detail assigned to the
3:08 am
children. all this happens, and i think this woman in a way i feel so bad for her because she just took over a few months ago. she took over to bring some, i guess some sensitivity within the secret service because of two international incidents. >> she was also asked how many times she brings it to the president's attention when something like this happens. once in the past year in 2014 where this was actually brought to the president's attention. this is something looked at to be a systemic issue where those in the secret service apparently close to this situation feel as though they don't feel comfortable going to their superiors when they're not comfortable in a situation that could be potentially deadly or dangerous for our commander in chief. >> there's a fellow named dan emmet, former secret service marine as well. he says there's got to be big changes at the secret service. he says she has got to go. she's great. she's a career officer. she's a former cop. she was in the secret service for a long time but
3:09 am
she's got no military background. and he makes the argument we are a nation at war. you need somebody with a military background. what he's suggesting is the military take over. he suggests lieutenant colonel allen west because he's a leader, he's got great diplomatic skills and you know what? he's got a military background. >> that is the facebook question. do you believe it is time for the military to take over the secret service? in your mind is lieutenant colonel allen west the perfect mix of military and congressional leader? meanwhile heather nauert is poised to tell us what else is happening. >> hi. you were talking about the c.d.c. they are still investigating what has so many parents nervous this morning. an alarming report is out that that fast moving mystery virus that has sent thousands of children to the hospital all across the country and is believed to be paralyzing some is growing this morning. doctors first reported ten cases in denver, colorado, and now there are four new cases in boston. the victims there range in
3:10 am
age from 4 to 15 years old. a christmas party turned into a scene of mass murder and today muhammad muhammad will learn if he gets to leave prison if he is an old man. he was arrested in 2010 but he pressed a button on his cell phone to trigger a bomb and to try to kill thousands of people at a christmas tree lighting in portland. the bomb turned out to be a fake. pras provided by undercover -- it was provided by undercover agents. he could spend 40 years behind bar. >> police are saying aaron lewis, the suspect accused of murdering the real estate agent in arkansas is the only suspect in the case, even though we heard this yesterday. he pointed the finger at another man on live television. [inaudible] >> the air force has a military base -- >> why beverly? >> she was a rich broker.
3:11 am
>> do you have anything to say to the family? >> beverly is the victim right there. police question that man trevor he spoke about but they ruled him out. lewis could face the death penalty. he is behind bars for murder but this morning van der sloot is now a father. his wife whom he met while he was in prison gave birth to a baby girl. van der sloot is behind bars for a 20 year sentence for a murder in peru. he remains the prime suspect. >> in the world of sports the f.c.c. yesterday says they're considering complaints filed to them by a person who is concerned about the renewal of the washington sports station that carries the redskins, wwxf f.m. why? they keep using the name
3:12 am
redskins because that is the name of the team in the national football league and tom wheeler is considering whether they should get a license or not because they use this name. >> they could get severe punishment to be determined here. the owner, dan snyder, said he's not going to change the name. earlier this year the u.s. patent and trademark canceled the team's trademark on the famous logo saying it was disparaging to native americans. the team appealed the decision. this fine or punishment for anyone saying it over the air waves is a significant consideration. >> the f.c.c. would have to first pull the license that radio station. if they do, they effectively ban the use of that word on other radio stations and tv stations as well. wouldn't impact cable and stuff like that. nonetheless, we want to know what do you think? here's the administration once again injecting themselves into this debate about whether or not it is appropriate to use the word "redskins." the name "redskins. "until they change the name, the name is the name.
3:13 am
>> sitting bull called himself a redskin. the team was named in salute to the redskins. the redskins fans want it. the indian tribes in 2004, 90% had no problem with it. now 70% have no problem. what is the problem? >> let us know what you think. >> 6:13. coming up, he murdered a police officer in cold blood and is in prison but that won't stop him from giving a college commencement speech and you won't believe who invited that guy. >> chef emril is dipping into politics. his opinion on why the economy is tanking and why the president is to blame. ♪ ♪ ♪

at od, whatever business you're in, that's the business we're in. with premium service like one of the best on-time delivery records and a low claims ratio, we do whatever it takes to make your business our business. od. helping the world keep promises. a fox news alert. for the first time ebola is here in the united states, and the c.d.c. warns the deadly and contagious virus may have spread. so what do we need to know? joining us is the infectious disease expert dr. saul. thank you for being with us. scary information, as we
3:18 am
know one confirmed case of ebola in the united states. what more do we know about this patient? >> we don't know a whole lot more than what the c.d.c. said. we we know is the patient traveled from liberia, got on a plane, was completely well when he got on the plane and developed symptoms after arriving in the united states. a few days later presented to medical care and was identified as a suspected ebola case. >> have they confirmed whether or not he came into close contact with any others and testing them as well? >> they know he's been in close cabt with some family -- contact with some family members and the health care providers who have been caring for him. they are in the process -- my understanding is the c.d.c. is in the process of investigating those close contacts and checking them for symptoms. >> is this virus, ebola, is it different here? is it different here in the united states than africa? if so, why? >> the virus itself isn't any different but the way we can care for it is different. the big problem with
3:19 am
transmission in africa is they don't have as many resources in terms of protective equipment. they have care practices that sometimes involve coming into contact more with bodily influence. here we've got modern equipment so it is a different beast. >> is it contagious if you're near somebody? is it contagious through air? how do you get it? >> it is not contagious through air per se. if i had ebola and sneezed right now and happened to get mucous on your face that potentially could transmit it. you need direct contact from fluids. if somebody is having vomiting, having diarrhea, bleeding and spitting up or sneezing, things like that. casual contact like we're having here is not a concern. >> i guess what's going through my mind and i'm sure many others, he went on a plane. that's close contact and that air is recirculated.
3:20 am
humidification systems et cetera. likely the chance for transmission or contamination is high. what are they doing to keepthese so the next round of people who get on there are not at risk or those who were on the plane are not at risk? >> you would think they were at risk but ebola is only transmitted when people have symptoms. what they're doing is at the airports they're screening everybody with thermometers. and anybody who has a temperature they're pulling aside. someone who is a symptomatic when they get on the plane can't transmit the virus. >> dr. hymes, thank you for joining us on a very important medical day. coming up, a television reporter makes a mother break down in tears. what did he do? we're going to roll that videotape for you. he dropped to his knees in prear and -- in prayer and was slapped with a

3:26 am
can we take that chance? >> with just five weeks until election day, will the democrats' handling of the isis threat or not handling the isis threat help the g.o.p.? here to weigh in is former new york senator al d'amato. who would have thought three months ago that foreign policy would matter so much and the war on terror matter so much. how does it play in this election? you just saw those ads. >> it is huge because isis and the threat and they're taking over major cities, taking over vast areas in iraq -- >> beheading americans. >> it has gotten the american public to wake up and say what's going on. when you look at the polls, you see people say this administration and the president is not handling this the right way. the president fails. and so those in the congress who didn't either listen to the briefings or didn't go to the meetings, who said isis is no threat,
3:27 am
they're in trouble. >> look at this poll from the u.s. times and cbs, they worked together and came up with this. when asked who is going to deal with terrorism? 48% of americans say republicans are. 31% say americans. you believe it could play into what's happening in new hampshire? >> no doubt. scott brown, former military presents himself -- >> he is also in the national guard. >> he is now within striking distance. the polling has him, some of it one or two points down, some one or two points up. in new hampshire, no one thought republicans had a chance there. but what's happening is democrats are going to stay home. they are because they're very disaffected. and independents, polling shows, are coming over to the republican way. and for the first time foreign policy has really become an issue because we see it as a threat to the united states. people begin to understand when they see what these

militants are doing. the beheading of the two american journalists really brings this home. and the failure of the president to follow his intelligence briefings, and he failed because the lieutenant general who is in charge of the defense agency, he said this in april. he said you better watch out guys. >> and was out there and is out there and his quotes can't be denied. senator, thanks so much. one of the new hampshire residents is one who was beheaded and now all of new hampshire, that independent state are really think -- >> upset, scott brown wins it. >> two minutes before the bottom of the hour. coming up straight ahead, he murdered a police officer in cold blood and is in prison but that will not stop him from giving a college commencement speech and you won't believe who invited him. celebrity chef emeril lagasse is dipping his

3:47 am
to watch. roberts had trouble there, made it through the primary and republicans thought it would be okay in this three-way race. the democrat got out of the race and the independent is running almost ahead of him in some cases. and the republican party has flown out all the top surrogates that they can think of to campaign for roberts, spending some money this. this is a real wild card to watch in an extremely close race across the map. >> and he's running right now as an independent and he says i did vote for barack obama in 2008, the same year that i ran for senate against pat roberts as a democrat. john mccain came out to campaign on his behalf and said, look, the guy's a democrat. >> and republicans are pushing this very, very strongly, saying that he's kind of a democrat disguised as an independent. republicans are trying to get kansas voters to think about that in these last few weeks of the campaign.

and i'm very proud of this because it's a way to represent my faith and get christ's name out there where i can glorify him. >> talk about stepping up the defense there. what do your teammates say? do they want it to go or stay? >> many of my teammates agree with me and we personally are very thankful for the man that built this statue because he did it and donated it where it was totally free to our school. our school had no part in it. it was just a donation given by him along with the locker room. >> and so when you hear someone say look, this is a violation of my right to not believe in god, what do you say to someone who wants this removed, to the atheist group saying take this out of here? >> i personally don't have any anger towards them. i disagree. i feel like this is a way for me to represent my faith because
3:55 am
jesus christ died on the cross for my sins, along with everyone else's. i don't feel like they're in the wrong because i understand where they're coming from, but the thing is like god, even before the statue was put up, was still god. even if that has to be altered or taken down, he will still be on his throne and he will still be my god and i will continue to glorify him. i have no anger or resentment toward them. >> kind of strong message. what's the school doing? >> right now the school is under like -- they have about a two-week period to make a decision on how this will be modified by either the statue being modified or taken down so we don't violate any laws or anything and get sued for them. >> okay. let me tell you something, i know this week is a tough one for you. hurt your ankle. you got two weeks out, i believe, and i'm sure the verses
3:56 am
on there, ones you will rely upon, we want to thank you for being with us. we wish you guys good luck this weekend and we'll stay on this. >> thank you. >> coming up, your e-mails are already pouring in on this story. if you could believe it, the ftc ready to ban announcers from saying redskins or face a fine. we're going to read your comments, top of the hour, without a fine. and they waited hours for their food on their anniversary. so why then did they give the waiter a $100 tip? that couple generous love, will that couple generous love, will join us next

4:00 am
deadly virus may have spread. a live report from the hospital straight ahead. wow. the secret service left fumbling trying to explain how a convict with a gun got face-to-face with the president. is it time for somebody else to take over security of our commander in chief? and they waited hours for their food on their anniversary. so why did they give their waiter a $100 tip? you know what? we're going to ask them because they are here live on this wednesday morning and live from new york city, you're watching "fox & friends." >> this is dr. phil. you're watching "fox & friends," the best treatment for waking up in the morning. >> i wonder if that's going to bug dr. keith ablow. >> of course. >> we're wearing pink for a great reason. >> it is breast cancer awareness month as we begin october and we just want to reach out with our
4:01 am
awareness. you can join us in wearing pink, maybe send us a photo. >> also this morning, it's ebola awareness because ebola, ground zero, for ebola in the south. >> we're going to get to that fox news alert for you. the first case of ebola found on american soil. the cdc confirming a patient diagnosed with the deadly disease is in isolation in a dallas hospital. this is where we have k dfw reporter saul garza to give us the latest. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. in isolation, in icu. that's pretty much it. we do not know his condition because of privacy laws. all we know is that he is communicating. let's tell you what we do know and give you a time line here. the patient left liberia on september 19, arriving in dallas on the 20th. no symptoms at all for four days. then on friday, september 26, he
4:02 am
came to the e.r. here at texas presbyterian hospital. doctors say he showed no symptoms of anything unusual, they say. lab tests were not impressive, as they call it. but he did not tell the staff here that he had been or had just traveled from liberia. but he was given antibiotics and then sent home. two days later on sunday, 28th, he was back here at the hospital, brought by ambulance to the emergency room and since then, he has been in isolation and yesterday is when it was official that he did have the ebola virus. officials here working to identify right now those who came in contact with him and that includes his family members, the folks here at the e.r., both from friday and on sunday, as well as the paramedics who brought him here. all those folks now being carefully monitored to see if they start showing any symptoms.
4:03 am
>> all right. saul garza live in dallas with the very latest, we thank you very much. we know you have a lot of questions about ebola. in a couple of minute, we're going to have the director of the cdc, dr. freeden, with us. if you have a particular question of interest to ask the good doctor, e-mail it to us right now or facebook it or tweet us and we will pass it on. >> that's right. now this, a shocking secret service breakdown, just three days the white house fence jumper now disclosed security breach that has everybody up in arms, to say the least. a report claimed an armed convict got into an elevator with president obama. this is two weeks ago, and no one even knew he had a gun. he was taking videos and photos of the president and three convictions on his record there for assault. he's in an elevator, probably inches away from the president of the united states and no one
4:04 am
even knew he had a gun about on him until he handed it over. >> if he wasn't such a knuckle head and ignoring the secret service saying turn it off, we never would have found out how bad he was and how much danger the president potentially could have been in. >> jason chaffetz heard about this particular breakdown from a whistle blower and he said, quote, the president's life was in danger. this country would be a different world today if he had pulled out his gun. so this very embarrassing news for the secret service came on the same day the director of the secret service was in the hot seat trying to answer the questions about how the guy with the knife and only a partial foot was able to jump the fence, run in through the unlocked front door of the white house and got into the east room before somebody who was off duty and just happened to be passing through saw him and tackled him. how does that happen?
4:05 am
well, it was a substantial grilling and here is the director trying to answer the congress' questions. >> we have an automated system that can lock down the white house. $800 million a year and that door was unlocked with no one standing at it when mr. gonzalez came through it. is that correct? >> the door was unlocked at the time of mr. gonzalez' ent)y, that's correct. >> the full length of the east room, down to the green room, to the american public, that would be half of a white house tour and there should be an immediate understanding that there is not a restraint factor here. this is not the nice cuddly secret service. >> so the big question is, and there was an editorial today, as we see that the secret service has fallen on the job at least two times, it was all about the international incidents that took place a few years ago and we know this, most are extraordinary people who sign a letter saying i will take a
4:06 am
bullet for somebody i barely know. very brave people. but maybe it's a situation where being that we've been on a war footing really for 13 years whether they admit it or not, is this time for the military to take over? >> that's the case that dan emmitt, former secret service agent, former c.i.a. guy, he's a marine, he says the fence jumping and the fact that this particular guy, mr. gonzalez got that far, will embolden isis and others because you can do that. we need somebody who has got military background and he suggests number one, bring in the u.s. military essentially to guard the president of the united states and also says while julia pierson, former cop, 30 years at the secret service, highly competent, has good record, okay, she's done okay so far. but she's not the person for the job. we're in a war footing. he says we need somebody to lead in this time of war who has got some military background. he suggests somebody like
4:07 am
lieutenant colonel allen west who was actually on this program a couple days ago. he's a leader. he's got a military background. he's got good diplomatic skills. he suggests somebody like that instead of the person who is at the head of the agency right now. >> good leadership would be key. >> right. >> and also we put that on facebook. people are going crazy writing back and forth. seven minutes after the top of the hour. other big news today, accused of beheading a co-worker while shouting arabic phrases. his facebook includes photos of osama bin laden. casey stegall live outside the jail in norman, oklahoma, where the suspect is expected to arrive today. it was a bizarre set of circumstances yesterday, casey. where are we at? >> reporter: yeah. we have a clearer picture now after this press conference of the district attorney held yesterday. this clearer picture of what happened inside that food processing facility where this
4:08 am
unspeakable crime occurred last week. the d.a. now says that the man involved had been in some kind of an altercation with his co-workers earlier in the day over race. those co-workers apparently went to human resources and turned him in and then when hr later confronted 30-year-old altton nolan and suspended him for a few days, initially we were told he had been fired. he was actually suspended, escorted off the property. he went home, got the knife and then returned they say to exact revenge on the people who had turned him in to hr. officials have backed off their initial story that he had been turned in for trying to convert his co-workers to islam. however, listen to this interesting bit of information the d.a. said. >> my understanding that he was using some arabic terms during the attacks and certainly that's
4:09 am
one of the many reasons why the f.b.i. is involved at this point in time. >> reporter: he is still in the hospital this morning. we are told he is expected to be released at some point today. he will then be brought to this location where he will be formally arraigned by video conference. we'll be here and keep you posted. >> all right. casey stegall live in norman, oklahoma with the latest. it's interesting that the d.a. should say arabic phrases. i mean, the average person in oklahoma, what arabic phrases do they know, have they heard, aside from alu akbar? we don't know what it is, but if it is something other than that, why haven't we heard whatever it was? >> also they want to make it about race and is it really about terror or both? nine minutes after the top of the hour. heather nauert here with the latest. >> he tried to turn a christmas party into a scene of mass murder. this happened four years ago. today mohammed mohammed will
4:10 am
learn if he gets to leave prison before he's an old man. he was arrested in 2010, he pressed a button on his cell phone to trigger a bomb and kill thousands of people at a christmas tree lighting in portland, oregon. the bomb turned out to be a fake. it was provided by undercover agents. he could spend the next 40 years hyped bars. an alarming new report out that fast-moving virus that is sending thousands of children to the hospital in virtually every state is believed to be paralyzing some is now growing. this morning there are now four cases that have now been reported in boston. the victims there range in age from four to 15 years old. doctors first reported ten cases in denver, colorado, a few days back. the cdc is now investigating. talk about adding insult to injury, an already crumbling atlantic city. look at this. battered this time by a massive fire. this video just in to "fox & friends" a short while ago. those flames ripping through several buildings just steps
4:11 am
from the boardwalk there. no one has been hurt so far. but 17 people are now without a place to live this morning. atlantic city reeling from the closure of several casinos. i can't believe wal-mart is blaming me. that from tracy morgan. he is now firing back at the company after the company pointed the finger at him. wal-mart saying that the injuries from the crash were, quote, caused in whole or in part by the plaintiff's failure to properly wear an appropriate available seatbelt. he felt compelled to speak out. not too happy. >> thank you very much. the sec received a petition to deny renewing the license of a radio station, sports radio station in washington, d.c. because they used the term, redskins all the time. it's the name of the team. well, if the fcc pulls the license, that will effectively
4:12 am
ban stations from using redskins. we asked you in the last hour what you thought about it and the twitter machine and e-mail machine has lighted up. >> that's right. one says this, new sec means federal control of citizens instead of federal communications commission. >> david says on twitter, they are going way too far. but yet again, the pc police just will not stop. >> and bill e mailed us and writes, i'm not a big football fan, but i feel the redskins name is no different than the indians or chiefs. the government needs to keep their noses out of it. >> or braves. >> there go. >> keep them coming. we'll watch and read. 12 minutes after the hour. >> many of you have questions about the ebola virus that is in dallas right now. so do we. the director of the cdc about be here to answer them live coming up next. and he dropped had his knees in prayer and slapped with a penalty. was he punished because it's a muslim prayer? the football controversy brewing this morning. ♪ ♪

4:17 am
joins us live from atlanta, georgia. good morning. >> good morning. >> i saw your press conference yesterday. i know you say the public has nothing to worry about, but my daughter works in the building directly across the street from the hospital and i talked to her last night. she's a little freaked out. >> i understand. people are scared. it's a scary disease, but she's not a contact. let's go back and look at the plain truth of how ebola spreads. it only spreads from someone who is sick and only spreads from direct contact with the person or their body fluids. >> all right. we asked folks if they had any questions for you and we have hundreds of questions. somebody by the name of sally, my daughter's name, wrote this: why are we not stopping air travel between liberia and other nations struggling with the virus? why allow flights into the united states, doctor? >> the bottom line is that the best way to protect americans is
4:18 am
first stop it at the source in africa. second, make sure that every single traveler who leaves the countries where ebola is spreading gets screened for fever. and cdc teams are on the ground and have made sure that that happens 100% of the time. and third, make sure that doctors and other health work increase this country think about the possibility of ebola in anyone who has been in west africa for the past 21 days. and test them and isolate them if they have been. >> let me ask you this, you say that we've got cdc people there on the ground in west africa screening people as they get on the airplane. how do they do that? do they say, do you have a fever? do they have a wand to wave to see if they've got a fever? do they just ask them? >> two different processes. one is a questionnaire where a series of questions is asked and second, hand held thermometers that work from a distance. so every single patient's temperature is measured at least once, often two or three times before they get on a plane.
4:19 am
that's important not only to protect other people, but also to keep the airlines flying. the impulse might be to isolate these countries. if we do that, we'll be increasing our own risk because really the simple truth is by stopping it there there and by helping them stop it there, we're helping ourselves. >> you talked about how this guy's family there in the dallas area, you're monitoring them. i know three of the emergency workers who drove the ambulance are being monitored. what about the people who were in the emergency room when he first came in and said, i don't feel good, and they said, take some antibiotics, go home? those people are being monitored, too, right? >> we have a nine-person team in dallas working with the hospital, with the health department and the family to identify every possible contact and will be monitoring every one of those individuals for 21 days. that's the tried and true public health means of stopping an ebola outbreak. >> one other theme we got on the e-mail was this, this is a
4:20 am
political thing, but you're part of the administration. they feel that the administration has misled a lot of people on a lot of things. why should we believe you when you're telling us this stuff? >> well, our approach at cdc is always to tell people more rather than less. we are going to tell you what happens, when it happens, when we don't know something, we'll tell that you as well. we level with people because that's the most important way, and that's the most effective way to get the information across and to get people to understand what we need to do and the fact is that what we need to do here is to trace every one of the contact carefully. and more broadly, stop it in africa for not just their sakes, but for ours. >> dr. frighten, i know you got a busy day, thanks for spending time with us today. >> thank you. 20 minutes after the top of the hour. coming up, how would you like some free legal advice? you can't have it, but illegal

4:26 am
little chaotic in the whole restaurant. you could see that they were understaffed and it was dinner time. so people were coming in the door fast and sitting down. so we sat down and within -- took us probably 20 minutes before we even were greeted or had water at the table. we decided to stay. we just were excited to try the food and from the minute we started the meal, we could just tell that everything was going to take a really long time. the server really didn't have much time to interact with us at all. so we could hear tables around us complaining and just really upset with the service and saying they weren't going to be coming back. one table did get up and leave. actually one table walked in and decided to leave and another table said the service is so bad, i don't think you'll want to stay here. so they went to another restaurant. we fell into that negativity at first and were kind of talking to each other about it and -- but halfway through the meal, we
4:27 am
just said, we have nowhere to be, it's our anniversary, why are we in such a hurry all the time? let's kind of enjoy this extended dinner. this guy is working hard. he's doing all he can. he doesn't have enough time. at one point he had 12 tables plus the bar. more than any one person could handle. so we were just giving him a little bit of credit, like he's trying and there is nothing he can do but do his best. >> and then not only that, you left him such a generous tip. i've waited tables before, you depend on them. anyone who has done that knows four tables is a lot. kyle hanson is his name, this is how he reacted to your big tip. >> i wasn't expecting that. it was a good ending to a really stressful night. >> my gosh, almost tears in his eyes. steven, were you surprised at how many people liked and
4:28 am
related to your message? went viral, 1.5 million likes. >> yeah, i know. it's kind of surreal, but it's one of those things where he everybody can relate, either being in the service industry or as a patron. everybody can relate to the story. >> you've also said in your post that everybody makes mistakes, right? so this is a great message of grace. we want to wish you again a happy anniversary and for a message of real love that millions of people have liked. >> thank you very much. >> great story there. coming up, she is facing criminal charges for making bomb threats. but apparently that's not enough to make the sister of the boston bombing suspects behave. what she just did. and the baggage claim bandits strike again. how are they getting away with your stuff? give it back. ♪

4:33 am
disease is in isolation at aita. john roberts is live at the cdc headquarters in atlanta. john, are we -- we just had the guy who runs the cdc on and he wants to make sure everybody understands don't panic. >> reporter: right. that is the job of public health officials is to tell people not to panic. but there certainly are plenty of reasons for people to be concerned, particularly people who were in close contact with this fellow while he was showing symptoms. it looks like that might be limbed to family members. the doctor said yesterday that he expects at least a couple more patients may come forward presenting with symptoms of ebola in the wake of this. what he did say, however, was he doesn't believe that people who were on the aircraft that flew with this fellow from liberia here and we don't yet know how he got here. but it could be logical to assume maybe he flew an african regional carrier to nigeria and
4:34 am
then flew from there here because there are plenty of flights between the united states and nigeria. he thinks because he was asymptomatic at the time, there is no need to screen those passengers. if you look at the math here, eight to ten days on average for incubation, ten days ago he flew here. if somebody was going to get sick, we might know about it by now. he was also asked this morning whether or not it made sense to suspend flights between the united states and west africa or other european countries in west africa. here is what he said. >> the impulse might be to isolate these countries. if we do that, we'll actually be increasing our own risk because really the simple truth is by stopping it there and by helping them stop it there, we're helping ourselves. >> reporter: obviously when there was a big outbreak you need to stop it in those countries. however that, is very problematic because of the lack of medical facilities. if you look at what happened in
4:35 am
nigeria where the american flew in august, 19 other people were infected after he died from ebola. nigeria was able to get a lid on it and yesterday the cdc said it looked like that outbreak there was contained. our facilities here in the united states, much better than in nigeria. in terms of what's happening in west africa, that's still out of control and as long as people are migrating between the countries, there is always a chance that someone will get on an aircraft and land here in the united states infected with ebola. >> of course, are you just -- are you saying there is going to be no follow-up to the passengers of that plane as reported of yet, not in eight days, not in five days to see if any of them are displaying symptoms? >> reporter: at this point in time, the centers for disease control sees no reason to go back and monitor people who were on board the aircraft because dr. frieden says there is absolutely zero chance he passed along the virus to anyone traveling with him. what they're going to focus on immediately is family members that this guy had contact with,
4:36 am
medical workers he had contact with when he first came to the hospital on the 26th of september presenting with symptoms and then when he came back on the 28th and was admitted. i don't know if everybody on the aircraft will feel comfortable about being monitored, but that's where they're going right now. >> john roberts. >> thank you. >> heather inaugurate, turning our attention to boston. >> the sister of the accused boston bombers is complaining hyped bars. she says she never threatened to blow up her boyfriend's ex and is being targeted because of her family. she was sent to the slammer when she couldn't come up with $5 million in bail. the luggage thief striking again. look at this video here. two men get out of a red car, make their way into phoenix' sky harbor airport.

>> but you want to have a conversation that's a little bit broader than mistrust. you want to talk about actually race and law enforcement and who is committing the crimes and the role of the officers officers is well as the assailants. >> absolutely. everybody should be on the table. we look at places around our country. you can count chicago and philly and camden, oakland, flint, michigan, detroit that are high crime areas that police, it's their role to go there and police and sort through the bodies in the street and try to identify witnesses and build cases. and there is great distrust in those communities. in places where it's not police doing the killing, it's somebody else doing the killing. >> assaults are up, deaths are up. what about attitude on the streets for those who enforce the law, who don't make a million dollars and one of the few jobs you get up in the morning and not sure you'll go home at night? >> that's a great point. i'm very troubled by the tone of
4:47 am
the conversation, particularly in the wake of the ferguson situation. every year there are dozens of police officers killed in the line of duty. every year there are somewhere between 50 and 60,000 law enforcement officers assaulted while they're doing their job or trying to do their job. a mile from me is a memorial with over 20,000 names of deceased law enforcement officers carved into stone walls. i think that has to be part of the conversation, the role of our police in a civil society and i'm not sure about the balance of the current administration. i noted three cases this summer where police officers were killed in the line of duty. and violent crimes. i did not see comments by the president. i did not see representatives from the white house at their funerals. i did not hear from the attorney general on any of those. >> the good news is, i think, the attorney general is leaving, we don't know how much damage he's actually done.

4:53 am
of this suspected killer? we're talking to psychiatrist and fox news contributor dr. keith ablow. good morning to you. >> good morning. >> first of all, what did you make of the fact that he oftentimes there are news cameras around during the perp walks. usually nobody says anything. why would he feel like this is his chance to spill the beans? >> well, here is the thing, we don't know whether the guy is absolutely guilty or not. one thing i've noticed in researching killers, particularly ones with a lot of narcissism, is that they think they're more believable than they are. so because they can't empathize, they can't feel the suffering of victims, they can't beauty emotions, so they think you'll believe their tall tales. and that may or may not be happening here because we don't know for sure whether the guy is guilty. >> so that i'm sorry doesn't necessarily mean anything? >> well, i'm sorry for this fellow may not mean much.
4:54 am
it seems very surgical in its approach. it doesn't mean he wasn't there or in some way knew about it, but it's a hollow i'm sorry and almost like look, you're in the wrong place at the wrong time, i'm sorry the car hit you. but i don't feel anything about it. >> so it's fascinating and horrifying. listen to him a little later that afternoon. >> are you hurting for some reason? >> yeah. >> what's hurting? >> i got in a car wreck the other day. i haven't been to the hospital yet. >> you pled not guilty. why? >> because that's what my lawyer said to do. >> reporter: why? >> just wanting this all over with. just sorry it all happened. i just want it all over. >> wants it all over with. your characterization of his attitude? >> again, you would say if this were a fellow who was for some reason wrongly accused, sure, you would want it all over with. but the reason this is chilling is because of the lack of
4:55 am
affect. if you or if i were in that situation and wrongly accused or god forbid had done something that was against the law, you'd be weeping, yelling, let me out of here. i can't believe this happened. not this guy. this guy is generally very even, even after saying i'm in pain. >> absolutely. and before he said i'm sorry, is he -- why her? he said, she's a rich broker. what is the fact that she's a rich broker have to say? >> well, i think he said she was working alone. i believe he said that. i think we may see more of this. in other words, the division that has been encouraged between different classes in our culture, which is wrong, we're one people, can lead to violence because it suggests the person is the other, in the same way that folks hobbled by prejudice look at other races as the other. this could happen with socioeconomic groups and that
4:56 am
would be devastating for our country. >> it was almost like him saying of course, why wouldn't i? she's rich, alone. i got money. >> is that a justification in his mind? >> again, imagine this fellow attacking you or stalking you or trying to plead with somebody like this because what you get back is arithmetic. not feeling. she was a rich broker. what do you have to say? sorry. why did you plead not guilty? my lawyer told me to. why are you doing this to me with the knife? because. >> thanks so much. >> yep. >> it's troubling. >> thank you, dr. keith. coming up. >> he considered himself a progressive, even worked for liberal michael moore until he made a documentary about islam, then everything he believed in changed. that film maker will join us here. then the federal communications commission ready to perhaps ban announcers from saying the name redskins, which is the name, or they face a fine. is it really the job of the

4:58 am
5:00 am
good morning. it is wednesday, october 1. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. we begin with o -- a fox news alert. ebola here in america. this morning a warning for you. it may have spread. what you need to know about this very deadly and contagious virus straight ahead. and as the secret service tries to explain how a guy with a knife ran into the east room, lawmakers offer a simple solution. >> have you ever heard of these guys? just 39 bucks a month. but this morning the big question, how did a convict with a gun get face-to-face with the president on an elevator? and the government getting involved in the redskin controversy. the fcc ready to ban announcers from saying the name or face a
5:01 am
fine? your e-mails pouring in on this because mornings are better with friends. >> hi, this is sam waterston. you're watching "fox & friends". >> we're really kind of a law and order kind of show. but today we're talking medicine and we're talking about things you're worried about regarding ebola. the first case of ebola found on american soil at this hour, a man, sounds like he's from liberia, diagnosed with the disease in isolation at that dallas hospital. we spoke to the director of the cdc earlier about the fears of the virus could be spread on airplanes. he says everything is fine because there is a strict screening process before they get on the plane. >> one of the questionnaire, where a series of questions is asked. and second, there are hand-held thermometers that work from a distance, so every single patient's temperature is
5:02 am
measured at least once, often two or three times before they get on a plane. that's important not only to protect other people, but also to keep the airlines flying. >> what exactly do we all need to know this morning? we're going to ask disease specialist the very questions. this is a big deal. when we're talking about ebola, how contagious is it, in your mind? you have to be in close contact. now it's here in the united states. the conversation is reved up. >> it's not as contagious, it's very infectious virus burks it's nots contagious. you can't catch ebola from food, from talking to someone. >> got to have contact. >> you really have to have contact with bodily fluids. so that puts a little extra barrier. the other issue is that you really -- the infectious time is when you develop symptoms. so we're fortunate to at least have that because some diseases are infectious even before you
5:03 am
develop symptoms. >> how concerned are you about the people that he may or may not have been in contact with? there seems to be a lax attitude about that and i'm wondering if they're trying not to panic us or them. >> again, it's because we have -- his contacts will be monitored for 21 days with temperature regulation. the minute you develop a fever, that's when the infectious part develops and begins. so they will have to be monitored for 21 days during the period of time of incubation. >> what about those on the plane with him? no follow-up just to be safe? no eight to ten day follow-up with anybody on the plane? >> they were a symptomatic while on the plane. so there is no risk on the plane ride this time. but there should be obviously heightened caution because you really can't get on a commercial plane with a fever coming from an indemic area. >> right. and the doctor made it very clear, they screened people before they get on.
5:04 am
maybe they should start screening people as they get off because it takes two days to get here from liberia oftentimes. so maybe they should be making sure people don't have a fever when they get off the airplane as well. >> that's a consideration. >> yeah. >> the other question, going back to what brian was talking about, people who came into contact with this person, the person comes to the united states, is here in the united states, no symptoms. and then a couple days later, feels lousy, goes to the emergency room. they say yeah, you got a fever, but we're going to give you some pills and he went home. all the people in that emergency room, he had the symptoms right then. shouldn't those people be monitored? >> they will be. that's part of the investigation and it should be because from the time that there were symptoms, anybody that potentially could come into contact with his bodily fluids should be monitored. >> you have a very calm tone. do you think the rest of us are saying, wait a minute. there is panic when it comes to flu, to lice.
5:05 am
as a parent, i'm thinking, there should be a little bit of justification for worry here. am i wrong? >> the virus behaves a little different and were you virus is something -- flu virus is contagious through the air, date of birthlets. this is a little different. it requires bodily fluids. >> but it's here. >> it is here. but we're not in the same infrastructure as other areas where this has taken off. >> dr. frieden was on earlier and talked about the possibility, should we isolate the countries that are experiencing this and protect the rest of the world? here is his take. >> it is certainly possible that someone who had contact with this individual, a family member or other individual could develop ebola in the coming weeks. but there is no doubt in my mind that we will stop it here. >> right. that wasn't -- so should you just say okay. let's avoid that area, the rest of the world?
5:06 am
>> there should be no travel to that area unless completely necessary. >> the point is, is it irresponsible to not check people for temperature and fever as they exit a plane, in your estimation? >> minute with that travel history and -- with symptoms should definitely be evaluated. whether they're getting off the plane or two days after they arrive, anybody with that travel history, as health care professional, need to have a heightened sense of awareness. >> all right. thank you very much for making a couch call today. >> thanks a lot. meanwhile, we've been talk being this the last couple of days. remember the guy who jumped over the fence, ran into the white house. he had a knife in his pocket and then tackled by somebody who was off-duty. just so happened to be in the east room, said, wait a minute. there is not supposed to be a guy here. there he is right there. mr. gonzalez. now on the same day that the director of the secret service was grilled on capitol hill for that security lapse, news comes out from a whistle blower that apparently two weeks ago when
5:07 am
the president as it turns out was down at the cdc talking with the people there about the ebola virus, he got into an elevator at one point and he was face-to-face with a security contractor who had a gun in his pocket and he had three convictions for assault and battery, and now the secret service is scrambling because they have to explain how the president of the united states was next to a guy, a convict with a gun. >> if he wasn't so obnoxious with his camera and ignoring the secret service when they said, can you stop that, and then getting fired, they wouldn't have gone into his background, found out he had a gun and found out how in jeopardy the president could have been in. >> apparently the screening is supposed to keep people with a criminal history is supposed to keep them out of the reach of the president. >> it makes you understand why julia pierson with all that's going on with the secret service has been coming under extreme scrutiny and yesterday in her
5:08 am
hearing she faced the music. >> don't let somebody get close to the president. don't let somebody get close to his family. don't let them get in the white house ever! if they have to take action that's lethal, i will have their back. >> this, ladies and gentlemen, is not a democratic issue. this is not a republican issue. this is an american issue. this is also an issue of national security. >> have you ever heard of these guys? >> i wish to god you protected the white house like you protecting your reputation here. >> this is unacceptable and i take full responsibility and i will make sure that it doesn't happen again. >> they're going to do a separate investigation and get independent counsel to look into it. >> is that going to be it? are heads going to roll? as you said, she had to face the music. now what? >> right. will there be a consequence? >> then he also said, how many times did you tell the president
5:09 am
his security has been breached? she said once. he's not even being candid with the person she's protecting. more big news, he's accused of beheading a co-worker while shouting arabic phrases. his facebook page includes pictures of osama bin laden. but don't call him a terrorist. he's charged with murder. casey stegall is live outside the jail in norman, oklahoma, where the suspect is expected to arrive. they seem to be emphasizing more race than terrorist. why is that, case >> reporter: you know, it's some conflicting information. you mentioned the arabic phrases that the district attorney said he was saying during the attack itself. but what he was exactly saying, the translation, that has not been made clear. let me backtrack. shear what we expect to happen today. according to the district attorney, they believe that the suspect is going to be released from the hospital. when that happens, he's going to be brought right here to this location. the cleveland county jail in norman, oklahoma, where he will be formally arraigned.
5:10 am
but it will happen via video conference. he won't physically go before the judge himself. meantime, the confusing investigation into this horrific crime continues. initially authorities had told us that 30-year-old alton nolan had been fired from his job at the vaughn food processing plant because he was trying to convert his colleagues to islam. now the d.a. said that he was not fired; he was suspended because he had been in an argument with co-workers earlier in the day over race, saying that he did not like white people. regardless, a virginia congressman has written a letter to eric holder demanding this be investigated as terrorism. not workplace violence. >> it is an act of terror, should be prosecuted at the federal level as an act of terror. what i'm worried about is that the agents on the ground who believe this could be terror are being told by the leadership at the justice department workplace
5:11 am
violence and sort of a disconnect. >> reporter: there is no terrorism statute here in the state of oklahoma. so as this investigation plays out, if it is determined that terrorism was a factor that, would have to be pursued at the federal level. of course, the f.b.i. among many agencies now investigating. >> and they wouldn't do it given what frank wolf just said. casey, thank you very much. we turn now to heather with the news. >> good morning. he tried to turn a christmas party into a scene of a mass murder. today mohammed mohammed will learn if he gets to leave prison before he's old. the f.b.i. arresting the somali american in 2010. he pressed a button on a cell phone to try to trigger a bomb. he wanted to kill thousands of people at a christmas tree lighting in portland, oregon. that bomb was fake. it ended up it was provided to him by undercover agents. he now could spend the next 40 years behind bars. an alarming new report of the fast moving virus that's

blogger for the daily coast and michael moore.com. but his entire view changed unexpectedly while reporting on a controversial mosque in tennessee. he saw a darker side of islam that our politicians certainly won't touch. eric joins us this morning. great to have you here. what exactly did you find in tennessee while going through the footage for your documentary that really switched what you intended to do? >> i really read the koran and i read the hadif and i asked the tough questions to the islamic clerics and i found their answers matched the answers of people who wrote books that were critical of islam and i found out that islam is the greatest threat to human rights in the world today and the greatest threat to global stability. >> why do you say that? >> that realization changed my world view. i think we can judge islam first and foremost by its actions. you played a sound bite where the president said something to the effect that no faith teaches
5:19 am
this. well, i would encourage anyone to simply read the koran. there are numerous -- 9:5, kill them wherever you find them. it teaches kill the unbeliever. it's obsessed with killing the unbeliever. >> do you believe that there are those that practice it peacefully? >> yeah. i think that islam is explosive, but thankfully not all muslims are explosive. the islamic world seems to be going through a bit of soul searching and i think they estimate two out of three muslims world wide don't know how to read or write, a lot of them don't really know what islam is. a lot of them are in it because they can't leave, because the penalty for apostasy is death. so a lot of people are captured by islam or indoctrinated, but don't know what it really is and don't stand behind it. >> what do you want people to take away from your words here
5:20 am
and also why won't politicians touch this angle? >> i'd like people to take away from my article why i do not hate muslims is that it is important as americans, as leaders, as an example that we not let ourselves become captured by hatred, that we not let that pollute our spirit. hating our enemy is not going to help us achieve anything meaningful. not all muslims are our enemy. islam, which is a belief system and not a human being, absolutely is our enemy and if you doubt that, read the koran, it makes it abundantly clear. as to why our politicians not touching this issue, i think that they do not yet have the sense that the american public will support them if they do. if they heard from more of their constituents that they're concerned about the spread of islam in america and radical islam in particular, i think they would go in another
