north of seattle. and it appears this violence, this tragic violence erupted over a girl. what's the very latest? >> hey, there. absolutely details emerging that he wasn't coping with with a romantic heart break. and the girl involved was one of those the gunman shot yesterday morning. authorities at the school identifying him as jalyen fryberg. he was a homecoming prince described as a golden boy. he walks up to a table in the school cafeteria and unloaded a .40 caliber gun on three girls and two of his own male cousins. it looks like he shot the girl he was upset about first of all. three of those he injured are in intensive care. one boy suffered a gunshot wound to the head. the other took a round to the jaw. the hospital where two of the 14-year-old girls are being treated said it's traumatic for the victims on multiple levels. >> much of the day yesterday was
11:32 am
spent trying to make identifications, so that was terribly stressful for them. we've seen tears, anger. they are just grieving. right now i think they are just settled in. things are quiet. they know the circumstances. they're hoping for the best. >> dr. roberts adding that the next three days are absolutely crucial in their fight to recover. fryberg turning his weapon on himself dying at the scene. in the aftermath, though, other school mates saying he had been angry over the romance that had gone wrong and his twitter feed was stacked with emotional anguish. one teacher attempted to halt the shooter pulling a fire alarm. as everyone tried to evacuate the building, they were sent back to their classrooms to take cover. >> when they were saying confirmed injured, that took a lot hit to people. they started to cry.
11:33 am
>> this school shooting is the second this year in washington. back to june a man killed students at seattle university and wound twod others. the state is just bewildered and wondering how a seemingly nice kid could go and commit an atrocity like this. >> so tragic. thank you so much. two people now in custody after a wild six-hour chase across two northern california counties. cops say a man used an assault-style rifle to gun down two sheriffs deputies. one each in sacramento and placer counties. a civilian also shot in the head during the spree who is now in critical condition. marchelo marquez was arrested along with an armed woman officers say was riding along with him. and more on the horrible hatchet incident in new york city. it's now being classified as a
11:34 am
case of terrorism. one officer was hit in the head and remained in critical condition at the hospital. the other officer hit in the arm and is now out of the hospital. that suspect you see, zale thompson, he was shot to death by two other police officers there on the streets of queens right after he attacked those officers. he is a recent muslim convert and he posted anti-american rants on social media calling for a revolution and guerrilla warfare against our military. police say he did act alone and has no ties to international terrorist groups but he did follow isis on social media and the terrorism shooting in ottawa. we turn now to the growing anxiety over ebola on american soil. a test coming in negative for the first health care worker quarantined under the new policy in new jersey. meanwhile the first case in new york city. dr. craig spencer.
11:35 am
he is currently being treated at bellevue hospital. brian yenis is there with the latest today. hey there. >> reporter: good afternoon. cuomo and christie announced this new quarantine policy yesterday. under this policy anyone including health care workers who have been in contact with ebola patients in west africa must be entered into a mandatory 21-day quarantine regardless of whether or not they show symptoms. illinois is joining both of those states. yesterday the health care worker was quarantined under the new policy. she arrived at newark international airport thursday from west africa. she had no symptoms when she was screened but he developed a fever while she was in isolation. she has tested negative for ebola but remains in isolation. the governors say the current cdc guidelines calling for people to self-monitor
11:36 am
themselves and voluntarily quarantine themselves are just not strict enough. they point to dr. craig spencer, the first case of ebola here in new york city. spencer treated ebola patients in guinea and returned last week. he followed cdc guidelines. he took -- but he chose not to quarantine himself. he took the subway, ate at restaurants, visited a bowling alley until he developed a fever and was hospitalized thursday morning. cuomo believes a mandatory quarantine could have eliminated any possible risk to the public. >> we've seen what happens on a number of cases. people say i get bored, i went out, i went to the store, i did this. in a region like this, you go out one, two, three times, you ride the subway, you ride a bus, you could affect hundreds and hundreds of people. >> eight organizations say that this mandatory quarantine could be too restrictive and could
11:37 am
actually deter doctors and nurses from wanting to volunteer in west africa. as for dr. spencer, he is still in isolation here at bellevue hospital in stable condition and we are told that any chance of his condition worsening is pretty limited. >> yeah. hearing stable condition. that's great news. thank you so much, bryan. we know she hugged president obama in the oval office and now nina pham is back home in texas after being declared ebola free. her employer texas presbyterian hospital released this photo of her being presented with scrubs when she came back. the director dr. anthony fauci said five consecutive tests showed the virus was no longer left in her blood. that's good news. young people turned out big for democrats in the last two presidential elections. but recent polling showed the upcoming midterms could be a very different story. our political panel will weigh
11:38 am
11:40 am
just find the one you're looking for, see what others paid for it, lock in your savings, and get the car you want hassle-free. with truecar, it's never been easier. could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. everybody knows that. well, did you know you that former pro football player ickey woods will celebrate almost anything? unh-uh. number 44... whoooo! forty-four, that's me! get some cold cuts... get some cold cuts... get some cold cuts!
11:41 am
whooo! gimme some! geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. whoo! forty-four ladies, that's me! whoo...gonna get some cold cuts today! a claim the holy shroud of turin is a -- many believed wrapped the body of jesus. but a british scholar says analysis showed the cloth was at every d altered several times. all this suggests the shroud was only a prop. he says it was used in plays depicting the resurrection of jesus. perhaps not as reliable this time around. just ten days to go before the
11:42 am
midterm elections and the latest polls show that young voters have become increasingly fed up with the political process. something that could spell trouble for democrats. what does this mean for the midterms and beyond? we have a fox news contributor and radio talk show host. angela, let me talk to you. >> yes. >> they're supposed to be fired up and inspired and engaged. what happened? >> well, what happened is president obama sold these young folks a bill of goods and now they have buyers remorse. a lot that voted for president obama, they can't find jobs now. there's a lot of hopelessness and despair out there. i believe a lot of young people have acquiesced. what i think is equally sad is the fact that republicans have not won that vote. >> is that the reason? they think it's the president's
11:43 am
fault? >> i can't blame the president. you know, this enchantment with the democrats could easily lead to disillusionment with republicans in 2016 if they do not deliver to the millennials right now. the fact is you've got a student debt bubble that is $1 trillion. that is killing the hopes and dreams and aspirations of these young people. moneys are going towards what they don't want or understand. the wealth gap is the largest we've seen -- but angela this is what they voted for in 2008 and 2012. we need some answers now. you can't just be the party of no. >> we aren't the party of no. >> let's look at this poll. back in 2010 they said 31% voted. now it's just 23% voted. and the harvard study says young
11:44 am
people's belief is at a low. they are more disconnected from washington. so angela, it goes beyond what just santita cited. how does this get changed? can it be changed to engage the young people? >> well, democrats control the white house and the house and the senate the first two years of the presidential term for obama. so it's not the republicans who are the party of no. the bottom line is, eric, we are the party of yes, self-reliance, self-sufficiency, not the government. but we don't have that message out there for young folks. so they're not going to the polls to vote. they're going to stay home because they're upset with the democratic party but republicans haven't -- >> how do you get to resonate with the young people? >> we need to make politics cool again. president obama and some people even called him the "gq"
11:45 am
candidate. he made politics cool. have younger candidates and get out there like the liberals have done but tell the truth on how we can create a better america and it's not the rich folks bringing us down. it's big government. >> oh, angela, we need to make some good sense. the fact is democrats have taken their base for granted. and republicans have written off a swath of voters. i have not seen you in my community. yeah, you have. yeah, you have. and what we need -- i need you to be the party of grow. not the party of no. it's not enough to oppose president obama. what are you bringing to the table? it's not as if you're getting more democrats or independents out to you. you're just getting republicans who are frustrated to the polls. >> we have the first black president in the united states of america, and some people think that not only do we have the glass ceiling since we've gotten president obama, people in our community have the
11:46 am
concrete ceiling. they can't even see where they can't go because they don't have that opportunity because you have a lot of policies that this president and democrats in the house and senate have promoted that have failed. failed policies. >> we're going to have to go in a second. you mentioned a magic word. 2016. i mean, hillary is going to be what 68 years old in 2016? so can she -- >> oh, she's not just aging, she's saging. let's not be ageist here. i know i'm trying to sage gracefully. i love diplomats and politicians and public servants to be older because they bring a lot of wisdom to the table. >> she doesn't. >> well, no, no, no. anyone who's running. i don't have a probable with their age. what i want are some remedies to all of these wrongs that people are drowning in at this time. >> angela, last word. >> when hillary clinton made this statement during the speech
11:47 am
that corporations and businesses do not create jobs, she might be getting older or saging but she's not getting wiser. last i checked, they do create jobs. >> oh, no you didn't. she said everybody creates jobs. she's not my bible. i just happen to like her a whole lot. let's come together, angela, and come up real solutions so people can get back to work. >> all right. thanks so much. all of us, we're not aging, we are saging. >> i love it. >> thank you. well, this weekend we have a new election special focusing on the colorado senate race and it touches on a concern for everyone. the path to the american dream. >> all of the other people that are trying to make a better life for themselves coming from other countries are entitled to an american dream. it's not just a dream for america. it's a dream for the world. >> i think that they should specify who could come in and pay taxes like everybody does. >> reporter: the aguilars are trying to expand their business,
11:48 am
so they want a candidate who will work to make that possible. >> you can be successful at one store but can you replicate it at another store? and can you keep the reins back and still be able to control everything? and that's kind of some of the things that happen with government. gets bigger and bigger and bigger and harder to keep in check. >> fox news reporting american dream on the ballot. it airs today at 5:00 p.m. eastern time. >> i look forward to that. so do you think you're in shape? could you take on a 46 mile hike? but what if you did it and you were blind? look at that hike. you're taking a look at dan berlin.
11:49 am
11:52 am
an incredible feat for anyone. 46 miles of dangerous, twisting trials on the grand canyon, so called rim to rim run. well, dan berlin completed the challenge blind. four guides took turns guiding him to keep him safe. here to talk about that amazing accomplishment, two of berlin's guides, allison berna and dan berlin joining me via satellite. the first blind hiker to cross rim to rim to rim in one go. dan, how do you feel about accomplishing such an amazing journey?
11:53 am
>> i mean, it just feels amazing. i mean, it was a whole team effort and it was just something i didn't know i could do going into it. and when we climbed out of that south rim it was just a fantastic feeling. >> okay. now, allison is a friend of mine. when you first told me you were going to do this, you were very fit. so it did not surprise me one bit. she's also an overachiever. but tell me how difficult this was even for overachievers. >> well, finding time to train was the hardest part. the idea of doing it. the goal -- the unknown is always fearful for anybody. but it was fun to train when you're working and a mother and you have to set a goal. and be laser focused towards it. >> you have how many kids? >> three. >> three children. she had time to do this. charles, you did this as well. what was the inspiration? what was what drove you to do something like this? >> well, first of all, i wanted to see what dan was capable of.
11:54 am
i got him into two marathons and half iron man and after the half iron man we said let's do something amazing and hard. and dan suggested running rim to rim to rim across the grand canyon. i had done it once before and it was hard and i thought he could do it and he thought for two seconds and he said sure. >> is this the longest trek you have ever taken? >> oh, yeah, by far. i think the longest i have gone before this was 27 miles training for it. >> that's incredible. now, unlike a half marathon, or a half iron man or a full marathon, you're actually walking up rocks and you're walking under this rocky terrain and not being able to see. how critical were your sighted guides? >> well, they were absolutely essential. we had to make this up as we went. i had never been to the grand canyon before. jumping into the event like this, we changed it two or three miles into it. and we took it as it came. >> how long did it take you guys? >> oh, about 28 hours in total.
11:55 am
>> and allison, you took some breaks. women have to go to bathroom i think more often than men. >> well, they kept -- charles set his alarm for 30 minutes and the key is keeping yourself hydrated and our breaks were about 20 minutes at maximum where we'd stop and eat and keep the engine going. we didn't stop for 20 hours. >> just incredible. what is there left? i mean, honestly? >> oh, i have a lot. >> you guys -- you know, you set your sights -- >> too many things. >> dan, what is your next step? i mean, if there is anything that could top this. >> you know, keep going. that's the way i like living. i mean, you know, i'm not necessarily an adventure seeker but i think life is too short to sit back and be a passenger as well. so we're seeing what comes next. >> october is blindness awareness month. there are some 20 million americans affected by blindness. and if there is one story that can tell you that if you are afflicted with blindness and you
11:56 am
feel like living day to day is tough, i mean, if you guys can do this, i mean, you can really do anything. >> well, i think when dan started going blind in his 30s he didn't let it depress him. he said i want to be a role model for my kids, what can i do to show them what i can do rather than i can't do. he called charles, ran a marathon and we're planning our next adventure. >> this is amazing. i thank you all for coming in and talking to us and sharing this very inspirational story. dan berlin, congratulations to you. keep us posted on your next amazing feat. i look forward to hearing it. now i feel really lazy. i have to get out and do some exercise. >> go for a run. we're going for a run right now. >> thank you so much. >> you can do it. >> all right. anyw anyway, over to eric. >> what an inspiration. we'll be right back. especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin, but wondered if i kept digging,
11:57 am
could i come up with something better. my doctor told me about eliquis... for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial, eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin, there's no routine blood testing. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you.
11:58 am
12:00 pm
good afternoon. i'm eric shawn. welcome to a brand new hour of "america's news headquarters." >> a cafeteria worker tried to stop the violence at a washington state high school. new details emerge about the shooting. that left two students led and others clinging to life. and our anxieties are mounting about ebola. coming up a live update on first health cory worker who has been flagged under the tough new
12:01 pm
screening policy in the new york region. the battle against home grown terror here in north america. do how do we -- how do we stop the radicalization of people born and bred on our shores? but first, our top story right now, that tragic high a school cafeteria worker apparently tried to stop the teenage gunman. he opened fire during a crowded lunch time period. one person was killed, seriously wounding four others. then the gunman turned the gun on himself. he is identified as jaylen fryberg, described as a popular freshman football player who was crowned prince on the homecoming court. there was a .40 caliber handgun recovered. the exact motive may have been over a girl. dominic di-natale has the latest.
12:02 pm
>> reporter: hi, eric. a makeshift memorial is forming. we can show you pictures that have just come in. the tally so far, coming to terms of a high school shooting with a good kid. jaylen fryberg, good grades, homecoming prince too. yesterday he shot five schoolmates at point blank while they ate lunch. today, the authorities recovering the handgun he used and revealing the it if is of -- identities of those he injured. he injured both of his cousins and other two girls were 14 years old. the girl he shot dead, her name has not been released. that's who he was upset about. the hospital where the two girls are being treated it is
12:03 pm
traumatic for the victims on many levels. listen. >> yesterday was spent trying to make identifications. so that was terribly stressful for them. we have seen tear, anger. they are just -- just grieving. right now, i think they're just settled in. things are quiet. they know the circumstances. they're hoping for the best. >> it was that cafeteria worker that you mentioned that triggered the fire alarm. clearly it wasn't a drill. here's how the students reacted. >> i started to walk out of the classroom. everybody is running in saying there's a shooter. >> we heard one of the shots. i thought it was a balloon. i turned kind of like -- like what's going on. i saw other students dropping to the ground. >> reporter: in the aftermath other schoolmates told the media he had been angry over that romance that had gone wrong and had been expressing it online. and friday's school shooting of course is the second this year
12:04 pm
in washington state. back in june, a man killed a student at seattle pacific university and wounded two other people and generally this weekend a sense of bewilderment of how the state could be hit so suddenly and terribly after that incident and police are continuing the investigation into what was the motive. but it appears to be all over a girl. back to you, eric. >> just so sad. thank you. and now we turn to ebola in america. new york, new jersey, and illinois, issuing a mandatory 21-day quarantine for travelers who have had contact with ebola patients in west africa. meanwhile, a new york city doctor is being treated for the deadly virus at bellevue hospital. he started showing symptoms on thursday, a week after returning from guinea. we have the very latest from the hospital. >> reporter: julie, well, new york city mayor bill de blasio
12:05 pm
and dr. mary bassett just wrapped up a press conference where they gave us an update on dr. spencer's condition. he's in stable condition and they told us they gave him antiviral drugs on the second day which is yesterday. the plan for administering plasma is in place. that's what he'll receive although. they have said that this is a disease in which they can expect people's condition to deteriorate before it gets better, so although dr. spencer is in stable condition they do expect him to get worse before he does get better. but they're optimistic about the fact that he's getting the best care possible at new york city's bellevue hospital. mayor de blasio not only give us the update on spencer's condition. but they also really wanted to reiterate that dr. spencer is a hero. he volunteered himself with doctors without borders a nonprofit to go to guinea and battle the disease in west africa like so many other doctors and nurses. he reiterated he was a hero and did everything he was supposed to do after arriving here in the united states.
12:06 pm
he wasn't sick when he got on board a plane from guinea to the united states. he wasn't sick when he landed here. didn't have any symptoms. as soon as he had symptoms at 100.3 degree fahrenheit, when he had a fever he checked himself into the hospital as he was supposed to do now, we had an update on the three people that were directly in contact with dr. spencer. that is his fiancee and two friends. all three of them remain in quarantine. but are all reportedly doing well. the fiancee will remain in quarantine until november 14th. that's when the 21 days will go up. all of this is happening at the same time that the new plan was announced yesterday by new york governor andrew cuomo and new jersey governor chris christie about the new mandatory quarantine plan. anyone including health care workers who have come in contact with an ebola patient in west africa must be quarantined over the last 21 days regardless of whether or not they're showing
12:07 pm
symptoms. now, andrew cuomo and chris christie said that the cdc guidelines were too strict and that voluntarily quarantining yourself is not enough. >> he was doing great work, but that was a voluntary quarantine for 21 days. he was a doctor and he didn't follow the guidelines for the quarantine. let's be honest so we have to do more. it's too serious a situation to leave it to the honor system of compliant. >> reporter: obviously, governor cuomo believed that the mandatory quarantine is definitely needed. he reiterated that and de blasio said that dr. spencer did everything right when he landed here. more updates as they come in. >> if only they had issued that 21 mandatory quarantine before he flew into the united states.
12:08 pm
that would have been good to spare us this. meanwhile, health care workers being quarantined in newark, new jersey. the unidentified nurse is the first person to be flagged under the strict new ebola policy. she had been treating ebola patients in africa. yesterday when she arrived at newark international airport she had no symptoms and she tested negative for the virus. still as part of the new policy put in place not by the obama administration, but by new york governor cuomo and new jersey governor chris christie. they did that for the flights arriving. the nurse we're told is being closely monitored at a hospital. well, an intense battle ranging in kobani between isis terrorists and kurdish troops. activists say the fighting is concentrated on the eastern edges of the town. the u.s. military launching bombs and missiles against the terror group. after making air drops of weapons and ammunition to help kurdish troops on the ground.
12:09 pm
we have the very latest. >> reporter: the kurdish troops need all the help they can get at this point. as the bloody tug of war if you will continues for control of the syrian border town of kobani. isis militants have reportedly staged another major ground offensive in kobani with the fighting concentrated on the southern and the eastern edges of the town where isis is attacking with mortar and artillery fire. now kurdish forces are getting help from the u.s. led coalition air strikes and the question remains how many longer can they hold out, we're told artillery and supplies, doesn't come any time soon. and likewise, that remains a concern for iraqi forces as well. though they too are also getting help from the u.s.-led air strikes. in fact, the u.s. central commander centcom reports that they conducted 22 air strikes
12:10 pm
friday and today, targeting isis' vehicles, positions, buildings being used for the production and storage of weapons. as far as weapons go being used by isis, there are new allegations that isis militants used chlorine gas on shiite fighters last month north of baghdad and julie, that raises serious concerns obviously about the use of chemical weapons by isis militants. >> it sure does. all right. thank you very much, john huddy. eric? well, iran executing a woman for killing a former intelligence official. who allegedly tried to rape her. reyhaneh jabbari was hanged for terror, despite calls from international groups to spare her life. she had claimed self-defense after stabbing that man in 2007 when she was just 19 years old. but the court in iran rejected that saying evidence shows that she planned to kill him.
12:11 pm
meanwhile, opposition groups like the resistance group, the national council of resistance in iran calls it quote, the savagery of the regime which is intensifying the atmosphere of terror in iran. well, startling new claims about north korea. a u.s. military official saying the regime may be capable of building a nuclear armed missile one which could reach the u.s. soil. he also says because pyongyang hasn't tested such a weapon the odds of it working would be quote, pretty darn low. well, harry reid going to keep his day job? what's going to happen with the midterns ten days away? the races are getting even more heated. will the senate tip? holly henneberg has the very latest from washington. >> reporter: eric, taking a look at what may be the five hot
12:12 pm
senate races. jeanne shaheen is hoping to keep her seat, but scott brown is making it a tight race. the real clear politics average of polls has shaheen leading by 1.8 points. but that doesn't include any gains or losses after the debate. in colorado, republicans are hopeful that congressman cory gardner can defeat mark udall. in iowa, republicans are looking to pick up a seat there. state senator joni ernst is leading bruce braley by 2.5 points in an average of polls. in georgia, a potential nail-biter. democrats are hoping they can gain a seat here if michelle nunn can defeat david perdue. by larry sabato says that the winner in georgia has to get 50% of the vote or else there's a runoff. >> the runoff is january 6th, three days after congress is supposed to reconvene. just imagine if the senate control depends on that one seat.
12:13 pm
>> finally, kansas where greg orman has a 0.8% lead over pat roberts. orman has indicated if he wins he'd caucus with what ever party has the majority in the senate. >> thanks, molly. be sure of course to keep it right here on the fox news channel for all of the exciting midterm elections as we count down to the midterms ten days from now. >> oh, yes. we will be watching that together, right? we'll do some overtime 2:00 to 4:00 a.m. coverage. >> that's when they'll be calling some of the races. maybe november or january. >> absolutely. what are we going to talk about? nothing to announce. well, the federal election commission mulling over new rules regarding political speech on the internet that could end up subjecting some websites to the same regulations as political ads on tv. critics say it would amount to internet censorship and supporters say something needs to be done to keep them from launching anonymous attacks that wouldn't be allowed on
12:14 pm
television. the committee is deadlocked on the topic but has vowed to take it up again in the near future. and the deadly radical terrorist attack in canada sparking new concerns here at home about potential home grown terrorists in this country. we have had them before. >> as long as we keep tap dancing around what's going on here, we won't defeat it. you have to fight it ideologically. you have to go up against that ideology and drive a stake through it. you can't do it if you just are using passive phrases. (receptionist) gunderman group. gunderman group is growing. getting in a groove. growth is gratifying. goal is to grow. gotta get greater growth. i just talked to ups. they got expert advise, special discounts, new technologies. like smart pick ups.

cream sold 35 million albums in two years with bruce writing and singing on most of their hits. in fact, they won the first ever platinum disc for their lp "wheels of fire." jack bruce was 71 years old. radical islamic terrorism here in canada and here at home. officials are prepared for a future apparent lone wolf attacks that we have seen.scram some solutions. some are calling for beefed up security on the border. while others say we need to stop terrorist groups from using the internet to try to radicalize americans. can they be stopped? john funt joins us now. you know, john, the first radical islamic terrorism attack in the united states of america was in 1990, a few blocks from here at the fox news channel.
12:20 pm
the assassination by nosir. have we really advanced that far in terms of dealing with that threat here at home? >> well, yes. i think we have prevented an awful lot of incidents from happening. many people have tried to cross our borders. many people have been arrested. but they only have to win once as you know to disrupt the intshl -- international economic system and to create chaos and spread fear and terror. i think we need like an energy, we need the strategy of all of the above. we need to beef up our borders, we need more surveillance of suspect groups and suspect people in this country. we need to have proper electronic surveillance that still falls under the rubric of the fourth amendment and doesn't intrude into the affairs of honest citizens. we need all of the above. >> others have scaled back somewhat. look at mayor de blasio dealing with some of the surveillance on mosques that some thought was a violation of innocent people's religious rights while others defended it as being part of a
12:21 pm
necessary program to weed out any possible threats. >> well, eric, both of live in new york city and one of the things we're thankful for since 2001, under police commissioner kelly and mayor bloomberg, there was serious surveillance of suspect people. it was done by 16 police officers. these are not people who are going into mosques to figure out what the religious teachings were. they were looking for danger signals and people were speaking out out in the mosques. there are various clues the people are trained to look for. they're not trained to spy on people's religious activities and for mayor de blasio to dismantle that task force sent a signal to terrorists all over the world. well, new york is easier to operate in than it used to be.
12:22 pm
>> it is shocking in this case in boston, they talked to the older tsarnaev. the bombs are blown up and didn't an fbi agent who talked to him say hey, i know that guy. we didn't have anything on him. so how do you overcome that hurdle and the hurdle that you mentioned, that this type of program is scaled back and there could be these potential threats? >> well, we certainly need better training and we certainly need more resources but we need one other thing. we have to be sensitive to people's background and be sensitive to profiling. but we can't let political correctness override the decision making process. i have talked to law enforcement people. my brother was in law enforcement for 30 years. and if there's a sense that if you go out of bounds and say, well, you know, i have a suspicion about this person and that person happens to be from a certain background and i might get into trouble because someone is going to be accusing me of profiling them, that's how law enforcement is supposed to work.
12:23 pm
law enforcement has to come first. has to come within the guidelines for several liberties but you don't want to cast a cloud over law enforcement and have them not pursue leads that they otherwise would because of political correctness. >> is it fair for law enforcement to look at facebook postings? zale thompson is the guy with the ax in queens, new york, who tried to boink one of the cops in the head and kill him. he called for on his facebook page, he called for guerrilla warfare. is this something that could give clues to authorities before you have a maniac nut case like that with an ax in his hand and a hatchet trying to attack our law enforcement officers? >> great point, eric. look, privacy is privacy. it isn't what you decide to say publicly on facebook. you have chosen to reveal yourself to the world. it is open to 9 billion people. come on, give me a break. >> all right. john fund, it's a threat that has been with us sadly remains
12:24 pm
with us. and we are trying to deal with it as best we can. good to see you. thanks so much. of course we'll have plenty more on this topic. the battle against islamic terrorists of isis and the midterm elections tomorrow morning. senator david vitter is a member of the senate armed services committee. he's from louisiana. he'll join maria bartiromo. that's tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. julie? we have some sad news to report today on fox news channel affecting us all very personally. we remember our former colleague anchor terry keenan. she died unexpectedly of a massive brain hemorrhage this week. she reported the news here on fox for about seven years. she hosted the money management program on saturday mornings and
12:25 pm
on the fox business network. she left fox about five years ago. she most recently wrote on business topics for the sister publication "the new york post." all of us here at fox news extend our condolences and best wishes to terry's family and friends. she was 53 years old. she leaves behind a husband and a son whom she left work to spend more time with. not only was she an amazing co-worker, colleague, and brilliant financial mind, but an amazing mother and her life cut terribly short. >> our hearts and our sympathies go out to ron, her husband, ben, her son. such a shock and sadness. we have heavy hearts here at the fox news channel. we knew her, she was terrific. quite a shock for all of us. keeping a billion customers a year flying, means keeping seven billion transactions flowing. and when weather hits, it's data mayhem. but airlines running hp end-to-end solutions

12:30 pm
tragic shooting at a high school just outside seattle. police founding a .40 caliber hand gun after a popular freshman opened fire in the cafeteria, killing one and wounding four others before taking his own life. and the ebola death toll in west africa now reaching nearly 5,000. that is more than 10,000 cases reported so far. the world health organization says most of the deaths have occurred in liberia, guinea and sierra leone. and this attack by a man with hatchet is called an act of terrorism. four police officers were being attacked while being asked to take a picture. well, the ebola crisis being a political issue. president obama is seeking to ease concerns here in our country with his weekly radio address. he detailed ramped up efforts by the centers for disease control to improve training and enforce new safety protocols. but you know the governors of
12:31 pm
new york and new jersey, andrew cuomo and chris christie, they're not waiting. they're taking matters into their own hands, not waiting for the cdc because they have enacted their open tougher measures. peter doocy picks up the latest from washington. >> hi, eric. you know, the president is praising the new yorkers saying that people went to work knowing they may be retracing the steps of the ebola patient. they proved that ebola does not have to bring big cities in this country to their knees. >> we can beat this disease but we have to stay vigilant. we have to work at every level, federal, state and local and keep leading the global response because the best way to stop this disease, the best way to keep americans safe is to stop it at its source in west africa. >> reporter: the latest ebola patient, dr. craig spencer, was crisscrossing new york city even after ron klain took over. that has some critics scratching their head. now some republican lawmakers
12:32 pm
are asking the top hhs official in charge of preparedness why she doesn't take the reins as the ebola czar. >> i mean, if there's an outbreak of people who don't have wills in west africa, or if this were an outbreak on contested elections in west africa, i would say hire ron klain, but it's not. it's a medical crisis. why you not? >> i have a full-time job -- and i appreciate the vote of confidence and i have a lot of confidence in mr. klain. >> reporter: now everyone will be quarantined for three weeks that includes doctors after they land in new york, newark, illinois after a trip to guinea, liberia or sierra leone. we have to see if this will prevent any more ebola patients from taking flights or subways or going to bowling alleys. eric? >> and that nurse is now in quarantine. peter, thanks so much.
12:33 pm
julie? all right. for more now on how we deal with the ebola virus, here now joining me in studio is a director of the center for comprehensive medicine. thank you very much. as a doctor you must know and we would have hoped that dr. craig spencer would have known a 21-day quarantine is mandatory -- it should have been mandatory after having direct contact with ebola patients. >> yeah, what has -- that has to do with conflicting information that the doctors and the health care workers have been getting. this happened with the nurse who is traveling on frontier airlines when she was exposed to an ebola patient in texas and back in new york, this doctor coming back from after treating ebola patients in west africa, was under the impression that as long as he was going about his normal day to day activities he posed no threat to the public. >> okay. so they say that the symptoms are the key as to whether or not you are contagious.
12:34 pm
he reported that 100.3 temperature the day he went into the hospital. however, symptoms started two days prior to that when he started to feel reports of fatigue and exhaustion. in that two-day span, he managed to go to a meatball shop, to visit the high line, he stopped at a blue bottle coffee stand. he entered the several subways. he went jogging. he went bowling. all of these things. what do you do to these businesses? the bowling alley, for example, where he might have possibly sweat and his finger sweat made it inside a bowling ball. what do we tell them? >> i think this is overfright upping the -- overfrightening the public. the problem is that when you have someone who's traveling around the city, not only it creates a specific problem in a
12:35 pm
place like new york where you have millions of people, use mass transportation and who are exposed to each other on a daily basis, it creates a sense of fear. and that's completely unnecessary and in this case, hopefully there was no problem and no one else will be affected. but why put the public through that kind of a process to begin with. >> absolutely. i'm glad you mentioned that. as far as the sense of fear there should be no sense of fear. his own fiancee spent a week in their apartment, okay, and she is now in quarantine and she has shown no symptoms whatsoever. so if someone who is in home with him, is showing no symptoms if you happen to ride the l-train and he was on it a week prior, you have zero percent of contracting. >> i think the problem we're having is that from the beginning of this crisis, it has been mismanaged. >> absolutely. >> i think that's the fear -- >> and misreported. because the hype is just ridiculous with some of the media outlets making it look like we're going to die of ebola. come on. you have a better chance of getting hit by a taxi or by
12:36 pm
lightning. >> correct. that's the sense i get dealing with patients in my office and you have to understand the first case of ebola was detected and has been traced back to december of 2013. it wasn't until march that samples were sent to paris where they confirmed that this was a case of ebola. it was -- we're looking at almost a year since that time and we should have been better prepared at every step of the way from the type of equipment that we use, to the medications that are available. i think that's the concern, so many missteps and we're sitting here and people are telling us to relax. we're good. you know, the public i think has been actually quite restrained in their response. >> i think the public has been restrained but they're outraged. personally outraged. first of all, here is a doctor who should know better, who shouldn't have been left to self-monitoring because he the clearly did a horrible job. he was wearing protective suits while he was treating ebola patients. my concern is, if these doctors are wearing protective suits and
12:37 pm
they're still getting ebola, what's going on wrong? >> that's a big problem. the world health organization is quite concerned about this as well. there are over 400 health care workers who have come done with ebola and half have died. they don't understand why that's happening. they're wearing the protective suits and being cautious and their health care workers are coming down with it. so health care workers here are also extremely concerned. they're the ones on the front line. doctors and nurses are signed up to a do -- to do a tough job. they don't expect to be risking their lives as if they're in a war. they want to be protected and they want to be told what to do. and i think that's another part of the equation. why does the world health organization not understand all the things? we are being told that everything is fine. >> i'm not a doctor, i understand. i mean, 21-day quarantine means 21-day quarantine. you're most contagious in the first two weeks.
12:38 pm
usually by 21 days you're completely clear. so the question is, do we quarantine them in west africa and not allow them here in order to potentially harm or put other medical facilities here at risk? do you believe that should be -- >> i think what we're doing now, for the first time -- last week, i spoke about this on air. i said, look, we at least need to quarantine people when they come into the united states. i think everyone has to understand that it's an on the table option at least that we would restrict air travel completely if the problem were to get out of control, because so far so many missteps. what you need to do is hit the reset button. i don't think at this moment we will need to do that. but everyone needs to sit back and say, look, all options are on the table. we'll protect the american public. this is a serious health care issue. we're taking it very seriously. we have a lot of respect for this problem and we'll do whatever needs to be done. that has been so piecemeal that people are losing confidence. i think that that's where we need to sort of step back and
12:39 pm
regain the confidence of the american public. i think that's the concern that i have right now, people are losing faith. >> yeah, the quarantine is certainly -- that's just a no-brainer. now that that is out there, i guarantee we'll hear a lot of people getting tested but hear a lot less of people contracting the disease. >> and i think that's hope on the way. i mean, we'll have millions of doses of vaccine. there's medications that are going to be approved. >> only a matter of time. >> we have to get through this waiting period and then we should be fine. >> doctor, thank you so much for coming and talking to us. at least down playing the fears that's what we needed. well, parents of university of virginia sophomore hannah graham reacting to the sad news yesterday that the remains found a week ago not far from the campus have been confirmed that they belong to her. john and sue graham thanking everyone involved in trying to find their 18-year-old daughter. although they had hoped for a
12:40 pm
happy ending, the light she radiated can never be extinguished. authorities have charged 32-year-old jesse matthew in her abduction and forensic evidence connects him to multiple other cold cases. i hate to break the news, the holiday shopping season is approaching. and many more americans are expecting to do their shopping on the internet this year. how online retailers and shipping companies are preparing for the busy seasons after last year's disasters. they say, "i never thought you would quit." you know, i really didn't either but chantix helped me do it. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. it gave me the power to overcome the urge to smoke. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor
12:41 pm
right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. i'm a nonsmoker; that feels amazing. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you.
12:44 pm
well, some good news for online retailers. 44% of the holiday shopping this year is expected to be done on the internet. you know, that's up a whopping 40% from last year. you know what that -- shipping companies like u.p.s. and fedex, they're forecasting record shipments this holiday season. but will all the goodies get here in time? scott, a lot of us remember last year. a lot of the packages did not
12:45 pm
arrive in time. you know, rudolph and blixen and dasher did the best job they could, but didn't always work out. think this year will be better? >> i think so. u.p.s. and fedex are doing a lot to prepare for this year's holiday shopping season. u.p.s. is hiring 95,000 seasonal workers. fedex has 50,000. u.p.s. is trying out something new where they'll let the packages go to pharmacies and dry cleaners and you can pick up the packages there. but u.p.s. said that they're investing $500 million in their infrastructure to prepare for the uptick in demand for this year's holiday shopping season. >> so you think they'll be prepared or going to have some of the issues like last year? >> well, here's the thing. there's only so much preparation you can do. if there's a snowstorm in the days leading up to christmas there's not much you can do. like you take a flight and your trip is delayed the same thing happens with cargo. companies have learned their lessons from last year where a lot of the packages came after christmas. they are taking steps to really
12:46 pm
make sure that some of the issues aren't as much of a problem this year. >> 40%, up 40% from last year. that's a big number. not like 10% or 4%. do you see the bigger trend as we have been seeing of more people shopping on the internet? what does that mean for the big box stores and for the -- you know, the other stores that we have gone into? we have seen a rash of the chains closing. >> well, i think internet shopping is certainly a trend. it will be at the highest levels since 2006 this year. if you look at the brick and mortar retailers they're doing well. even amazon announced plans to open up a brick and mortar location here in new york. despite the trends in online shopping, shoppers still block to the stores. black friday, 140 million are expected to shop. >> at midnight they're lining up -- hopefully there won't be any more injuries pushing through the doors. help save my dollars.com.
12:47 pm
how can you save the dollars, does internet shopping help save our dollars and how do we save when christmas and hanukkah coming up? >> black friday weekend will be a huge week jeeend for sales. if you wait until two day before christmas you'll run into the shipping issues like last year. take advantage of black friday. you will find deals online, in stores. do your price comparisons. there's price grabber.com. >> can you start doing that tonight? >> totally. start getting together a list. you know, budget wisely. these are things that everyone knows but sometimes, you know, we get so busy we don't take the time to plan ahead. and the ultimate tip here is to make sure you don't leave a balance on your credit cards. think about it, you can spend hours researching to save money,
12:48 pm
but that interest will raise any savings you scored. >> amazon drones, are they dropping the bundles on our heads? >> i don't think so. i think that was more of a p.r. stunt. >> okay. scott, thanks so much. i'm an internet shopping junkie. so much that my 4-year-old picked it up. she's like, mommy, just order it on amazon. she says that on a daily basis. the world series is heating up last night. we'll have all the exciting details about the close game and tell you who's leading the series. next. >> escobar will go all the way around and score. collision warning and new blind spot monitor and a 2014 top safety pick plus rating. cost of entry? a fortune. until now. hey sarah, new jetta? yup. can i check it out? maybe at halftime? introducing lots of new. the new volkswagen jetta. isn't it time for german engineering?

12:53 pm
common sense. and his rollout this week of a plan to distribute self-testing ebola kits to suspect travelers borders on silly. mr. obama never goes all-out on an issue. he toys with it. war and pestilence are not his game. while his defenders busy themselves blaming a panic icky media, we scramble to catch up to the nature of this plague. it's been debated whether it was ebola, not bubonic plague or smallpox, that led to the ruin of ancient athens, that shining city on a hill brought down by war and an epidemic that killed almost half the population in its five-year run. over the kencenturies, scholars have discussed a theory that whatever struck ancient athens

in the fifth century b.c. has been reproducing itself for 2,450 years. as a reliable witness and chronicler of his time, the grisly symptoms of a mystery fever was recorded. in the text, the author sets up a contrast, a portrait of athens in despair preceded by a famous general. social decay and hope dissolved
12:55 pm
in the merciless grip of the disease and hastened the fall of the great city itself. so turn off washington soothing cliches about monitoring ebola with enhanced screening. look to the greeks and the not-so-subtle moral issue of a great prideful power humbled by nature and its own ambition. whether or not it was ebola that struck athens is not certain, since no scientific proof remains. and yet a lesson looms of the mighty who fell under a scourge they could not see or understand. kansas city could be one step closer to being world series champions. the royals took the lead in the world series against the giants. >> that's in the air to center. back is blanco on the run. won't get it. stays in play.
