>> so you will be you be "meerkatting" all the time? bill: what do you think? martha: i'm a late adopter. bill: video is where everybody is going. martha: absolutely true. jon: we. bill: we have to go to radio. mart we'll see you there. bye everybody. jon: as the search resumes for clues to the cause of a deadly plane crash in the french alps, leaders from spain france and germany gather at the crash site to honor the 150 passengers and crewmembers killed in that disaster. i'm jon scott. jenna: i'm jenna lee. good morning. they are focusing on accessing data from the damaged cockpit voice recorder, they're trying to figure out why the germanwings flight took an unexplained eight-minute dive. at the same time helicopters police an forensic teams are out searching for debris at the remote crash site that could

help with the investigation. amy kellogg is not far away in the french alps. amy? >> reporter: the leaders of germany, france and spain are here. they're lending support to recovery workers who have been doing incredibly treacherous job six thousand feet up in a slippery, icy crevasse. they're here to len support to family members of victims. they traveled to be as close as a scene to the heart break as close and possible as be possibly identified of bodies. there are no hotel rooms left in town. locals are traumatized. this is area is known to recreation more than anything. locals opened up home to families, wanting to take them in to offer them some comfort too. meanwhile that voice data recorder the cockpit recorder, the black box is looked at.

it was damaged. there was a lot of concern that maybe it was damaged beyond repair but we're getting a sense, that investigators are working with it. of course these are, though though may look damaged they're sturdy pieces of metal. they are designed to withstand all sorts of eventualities in the cause of a crash or in the event of a crash. now a moment of sigh helps was held at the german headquarters in cologne of germanwings. many crewmembers were too distraught to fly today. one germanwings flight was canceled because of this. in other cases, other airlines stepped in to operate germanwings flights because because crews could simply not turn up for work today. they have been so emotionally distraught by all of this. another issue that came up today, there were reports that the a320 that crashed yesterday had been grounded the day before due to problems with the landing gear. germanwings said that in fact,

there was an issue but with the flap over the landing gear and had more to do with noise than with safety. and that it had been repaired. so as we, as we stand here waiting jenna, for further news, a press conference due anytime now from the three leaders who have gathered. no further clues as to why the plane crashed but obviously with the a320 being the workhorse that it is it will be very important to find out what went wrong. specifically there was a moment of silence a moment between 10:30 and 10:31 when communication was stopped and is considered critical. it is hoped that some sound voices from the pilots will be recorded on that black box and that will be picked up by investigators to lead to those crucial clues. the other black box, jenna, by the way still at large up on the mountain. back to you. >> certainly a lot more to

investigate. amy, tell us a little it about about the conditions there. what are rescue and recovery crews confronting? >> reporter: well it has it had gone quiet for several hours until now. the activity has picked up. there was heavy cloud cover. the area is not as big as we had originally thought. the man coordinating all helicopters, there are five to seven of them operating said it is not so much that the area is large. it is that the area is awkward because it is in a crevasse and some of the debris is so small. he said, you know you wouldn't automatically say this is a crash site. because it doesn't look like an airplane has fallen apart. the biggest piece was the size of a small car. and then there are pieces that are the size of car doors. there are a lot of much smaller pieces. there have been concerns of, you know, potentially an avalanche up there because there is rain, there is cnow. it freezes, it melts and it is

incredibly steep. it used to be an area that was much more populated when, when shepherds and agriculture were more prevalent. now it is really desolate. you can't reach it except for by helicopter. there was talk of opening up some sort of a roadway. that has been ruled out now of the so it will be weeks before this is wrapped up, we believe jenna. >> wow important context for us amy as we hear helicopters behind you. back to you on the ground there as news warrants. certainly much more on the big story throughout the day today. meantime we'll turn to another big story we're watching as well. new violence as yemen spirals further into care i don't see. the president is forced from his palace escaping to an undisclosed location hours after iran-backed shiite rebels claiming an airbase previously used by u.s. forces. conor powell is live from jerusalem with the latest there. >> reporter: jenna, any hope that yemen could avoid a civil war seemed to disappear

today. hours before president hadi went underground, yemen rebels arrested yemen's defense minister. they have really upped ante in terms of what is going on now. they announced a reward for capture of president hadi. declaring all-out war on internationally recognized government in yemen. after taking yemen's third largest city over the weekend iranian backed shiite rebels control half the country. they are on the march. they're looking to expand territory they're controlled. they are now moving towards the port city of aden where president hadi had fled to. the houthis are backed by iran. they have the support of former yemeni strong man abdullah saul lay, was both backed by the saudi arabia and united states before he was overthrown during the arab spring. now the current president has asked the united nations to authorize foreign military intervention in yemen. there are conflicting reports where he is right you now but

anyone's guess to his location is really unknown. he seems to have gone underground trying to get away from the rebels. one thing is certain, as yemen collapses and rise of this iranian-backed shiite rebels, there is a real fear that other sunni gulf arab countries like saudi arabia and u.a.e., would be drawn into the actual fighting in yemen. for the most part they have been on the sidelines providing support to the government there. but there is real talk that the sunni-arab gulf states may jump into the fighting there preventing really any hopes of stopping the civil war there. there is a real concern jenna that this war in yemen could overflow into the borders of other countries like saudi arabia like oman, opening up yet another war zone, a really big conflict area in the middle east. jenna? jenna: that story we'll cover much more throughout the hour. conor, thank you. jon: we're going back to the search for the cause of the crash of that germanwings

flight. for more on the investigation with one black box recovered our next guest says pieces of the wreckage could also provide important clues about what happened to the plane. daniel marks is a former naval aviator who currently practices aviation litigation. he represented plaintiffs in more than 40 airplane crashes. daniel, i know you've been on the scene of scores of aviation accidents. what is the most important job today, a little more than 24 hours after this crash took place? >> thank you jon. good morning. the most important thing obviously short of trying to help the victims of this crash, and be with those families is, as i know everyone is thinking about them to get every single piece of wreckage that we can. it looks like the weather is holding there. which will be important. and it looks like we've got a really good team out there gathering what we can. but, i'm of the mind, i know most of the folks at ntsb are of

the mind which get every single piece of wreckage we can, until we're sure we can narrow the scope of our investigation and search. jon: the french government was out almost immediately saying, terrorism was not a likely cause. do you share that belief? >> you know, it is very, very early on. i know one of the things that having watched you as wonderful to see is that you don't spend too much time speculating before the facts are in and i think that right now there's no real indication that there was any terrorism. i certainly would rely on the french government right now being on the ground and having a keen eye for that sort of thing. so i think now that the focus needs to be on getting that second box interpreting what we have off the first box, and taking a look at the history of the airline and the air frame in particular. jon: yeah. that black box that you're talking about which is actually sort of a reddish orange, it is the voice data recorder, cockpit

voice recorder. >> right. jon: it is located in the rear of the plane. there is a look at it. you can see, our viewers can see how badly damaged this thing was, badly bent and twisted but they believe they will be able to get information off of it. it is located in the tail of the plane, near the flight data recorder. no sign of that yet. at least as far as we're aware. does that concern you? could it have broken apart? >> well, it is always concerning when we find one piece of key evidence like that and we can't a piece that is adjacent to it. obviously this hit at a violent speed. we both looked at crashes where there have been substantial impacts but this apparently was a substantial one. if there was an in-flight breakup of any kind, it is way to early to determine whether that was an issue or not. but that could explain different places where the black boxes may

have landed. but, you know, when you have one and you don't have the other and they were approximate, that is a concern. we certainly want to try to get to that as soon as possible. if the casing itself was breached obviously we're not under water but still element can get there and you can degrade some information in there and we want to try to get that as quickly as possible. >> as that plane was dropping at relatively rapid 4,000 feet a minute or so the pilots were not making any turns. what does that say to you? >> well you know, just to step back for a second and look at a scenario that was an emergency. if there was something in the cockpit where they were having difficulty controlling the airplane or perhaps had lost direct control of the airplane through pilot input i'm not sure that not making a turn is an indication of anythg that the crew was doing wrong. if i'm in a descent i can't arrest that descent, i'm attempting to arrest that

descent to stop the plane from going down, turning one way or another will not necessarily what i'm going to be concerned with. certainly if we had a extreme nose at tied the last thing i want to do put angle of bank in there, get the airplane turning in the wrong direction because i want to do a level pull if i have to really yank that nose back up. i don't want to do a rolling pull. jon: but you are over the alps. if you turn at least 90 degrees or so to the right you kind of get out of those foothills, don't you? >> you bet you bet. if we're looking at going into some terrain then, yeah, a turn might make some sense. what does that tell us? well it tells us if we had a fully functioning crew maybe there was a control problem. maybe, and hopefully when we get this we'll find this out. maybe they were trying to turn and it just wasn't happening. that cockpit data recorder will provide us with a lot of information about what systems were functioning. had we kicked off autopilot?

were we still on autopilot? was the flight director on? all these things we hopefully will get get to know very, very soon. jon: and was the crew awake and alert. that is also a big question here. daniel barks. >> that is a big question. jon: daniel good to have your expert tease. thank you. >> thank you very much, sir. jenna: so many questions remain. we'll keep on sharing any developments we have with you on the plane crash in the french alps. deadline for a nuclear deal or framework of a nuclear deal with iran is fast approaching. we'll go inside of iran next with a "new york times" correspondent who is one of the few western journalists working and living in tehran. as we hit the five-year anniversary of the affordable care act, do you support the law. how does it impact health care. grow to foxnews.com/happeningnow and click on "america's asking" to join the conversation.

litter deal with here and we're getting a unique inside look at the country from someone working as a journalist in iran for more than a decade and remains one of the few western journalists that continues to work there. thomas is at tehran bureau chief and is our guest now in a series called man in tehran. we are lucky enough to talk to him on the phone. this is the first phone call with someone who speak to someone iran with someone covering news out of iran and inside of iran. what is it like working there? >> much more easy then you would expect. is like walking a tight rope. you have to make sure that all sides of the story get covered and the authorities watch you very closely. at the same time they allow me to work here for the new york times which is not representative of the great satan, the united states has

some of the ideologues still call the united states but they allow me to work, i am the bureau chief, i have people working for me. i can do the stories i want but i have to do journalism at its full list. i have to talk to all sources, make sure every side of the story is covered and the iranian authorities allow me to work. >> i want to ask you about something specific our viewers heard about, that is the ayatollah over the weekend speaking to a large crowd yet again saying death to america the white house here says when we hear is that that is even more reason the united states should be negotiating with iran. senators like tom, and who is a republican say when the ayatollah says death to america we should believe the ayatollah. what does your reporting suggest? >> it is strange to negotiate with a country that officially says america is the enemy but it

is not without precedent in history. president nixon, a republican himself went to china to cut a major deal with the regime in china. to negotiate with an enemy means to negotiate with people we don't like and who don't like you but the iranian leaders might not really like the americans but for iranian people it is knowledge like fat. a lot of iranians live in the united states. of the 2 million. a lot of iranians here that in the united states but at the united states very positively. you are negotiating with leaders but it is also about the 70 to 80 million people live here who are less extremist and don't go out saying death to america all the time. nobody says it to me but i am from holland. maria: interesting you should mention the average iranian. i wanted to ask about that because we have talked about the

average american being left out of these nuclear negotiations as all sides of trying to score political points. you said something your video with the new york times and the tiexiera with our viewers and that is the impact of sanctions on the average iranian. what is the experience there? >> imagine your currency suddenly loses 300%. it means your savings just evaporate. at the same time companies like google don't even recognize your country anymore so you want to set up a g mail account iran for a long time was not among the nation's you could choose from like you don't exist. for the average iranian it has been a tough time. a time of no hope, it will generation has been living under sanctions for ten years. if this was dark africa that might not be a big issue but iranians are highly educated. a lot of iranians studied, 60%

of iranian students are females. this is a country that under the reagan became a lot more modern than many countries elsewhere in the middle east and those of the people the united states is now targeting with those sanctions. >> you mentioned the storekeeper in your video that said he is unaffected he is able to get more western goods than at any time. >> there's always side effects of sanctions and iran is a country with borders with 70 other nations. smuggling has been on the uptick so what the supermarket owner says is i can get all the goods i want, more than before because of the sanctions because we have to bring them in through smuggling. at the same time prices of ghana making it difficult for the average person to say -- to buy some kind of box of cereal. >> we have to leave it there but

the series is ongoing for the next week. i hope this is the first of many conversations to learn a little more about what is happening inside tehran. thanks for the time today. we appreciate it very much. more on that big story throughout the day. we will be back with more happening now. to actively uncover, discuss and debate investment opportunities. which leads to better decisions for our clients. it's a uniquely collaborative approach you won't find anywhere else. put our global active management expertise to work for you. mfs. there is no expertise without collaboration. this is the equivalent of the sugar in one regular can of soda. and this is a soda a day for a year. over an average adult lifetime that's 221,314 cubes of sugar. but you can help change that with a simple choice. drink more water. filtered by brita.

music and 6% involved grooming or reaching for an object. dr. mike from los angeles with these findings. >> we have all heard these warnings before but what is different about this study is it provides this graphic video evidence of the dangers of distracted driving. researchers put cameras in the cars and drivers age 16 to 19 so that they could see exactly what those teens were doing in the moment the for an accident. the team's new the cameras were there but even so these were the results. listen and watch. >> researchers analyzed 1700 crash videos and found

distraction was a factor in 50% of the crashes. talking to a passenger was the leading factor playing a role in 15% of crashes followed by cellphone use at 12%. in the case of phones drivers had their eyes off the road for just over a 4 seconds of the final six seconds before crash and in half of all rear end crashes teenagers didn't react at all in the final moments before intact. no breaking, no change in stealing. teenagers have the highest crash rate as any group in the country almost 1 million drivers age 16 to 19 involving crashes reported to the police in 2013 resulting in nearly 400,000 injuries and 2,865 deaths. this study adds more evidence that we have an epidemic of distracted driving but proving

that it happens is one thing, preventing teens from doing it quanah it -- quite another. >> a good reminder to us all about being more careful. >> they own some popular brand you probably have in your kitchen cabinet or fringe. now h. j. hynes is buying kraft foods to create a multibillion-dollar food giant. more on the deal that is changing in industry.

maria: message deal announced that will take up the food industry and the question is what it means for consumers. hines bank kraft foods to build one of the biggest food companies in the world. lauren simonetti from the fox business network joins us to tell us what it is about. >> this is the mega food deal that reflects how our easy to kitsap asking for all natural and non process foods when we can. the catch a meager 8 j heinz is buying kraft foods creating the third largest food company in north america, the fifth biggest in the world. the new company will be called kraft heinz co. and this was spearheaded by hines's and litter, 3d capital and warren buffet. tines shareholders get a 50% stake in the new company. kraft told holders of the shareholders get a special dividend and will trade publicly. the combination joins brands and a struggling kraft brands, kool-aid jell-o to name a few with heinz's seuss --sts.

warren buffett says new product are coming and coming soon. what to watch out for here, job losses. on the median colleges neither company would elaborate but 3d capital is known for very severe cost cutting and annual savings from this deal at pay debt $1.5 billion by 2017. the deal is not indicating wall street but it is lifting food ss, kellogg and kraft shares all trading higher. if you own craft you are up 30% today alone. >> what about the macaroni and cheese i have in the pantry? that is going to be there for a while, we don't have to worry about those. >> those are iconic brands and they will stay. i keep joking when you were a kid i don't know if you put ketchup on-year-old and cheese but not make sense. maria: maybe the retaking the cue from consumers is what you were saying. good observation. thank you very much.

lauren simonetti on the fox business network. if you are not sure where to find it log on to foxbusiness.com/channelfind. >> president obama marking the fifth anniversary of his signature health care law with a new program aimed at cutting health costs by reducing unnecessary treatments tests and hospital visits, those rack up big bills. >> just five years in the affordable care act is already helping to improve quality of health care across the board. a lot of the attention has been rightly focused on people's access to care. that obviously was a huge motivator for us passing the affordable care act, making sure people who didn't have health insurance had the security to have health insurance. what was the central notion in the affordable care act was the have and inefficient system with a lot of waste the didn't always

deliver the quality that was needed. >> let's talk with the washington editor of "national review," david nakamura is correspondent for the washington post. one thing you didn't hear in those remarks is if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor you like your health insurance you can keep your health insurance. >> you did not hear that. the president does not want to remind people of past statements that he is alluding to we made some mistakes implementing the law but it is working and he quickly focused more on republican criticism. what you are seeing at the event to date is this new network of physicians to implement the costs. the bigger point was a political one to talk about, and the success of the economy and the emergence of the economy has, other achievements or initiatives in a way that says the economy is doing well.

the health-care law would criticize republicans and dad the deficit will be too costly but the president said that is not the case and you are seeing it working, all these people soaring debt and he is giving political help going forward as republicans challenge him politically and the supreme court is looking at a legal challenge. >> whether it is working or not is best left to the individual, eager they like what they are getting under obamacare or they don't, millions of americans covered as a result of this law and therefore a success. is that the standard by which it should be measured? >> it is a great question. for republicans is not a question and is the law working republicans are measuring the law against its original goals which were universal coverage, lower premiums and lower costs to the government and republicans say by those measures the law has failed. what you heard from the president today was we got

expanded coverage, we reduced burden for preexisting conditions and done some other things. what we have now is better than we had before. is it with $2 trillion? that is the debate we have had the past five years and is the central political debate in the country but republicans are saying this law does not accomplish its original goal, to say we have some health care system working is a pretty low bar. >> can't believe it, haven't moved the ball all that far on this issue. president is proclaiming the success that there are other shoes left to drop and the implementation of it and the supreme court could throw the whole thing out. >> he acknowledge that the end briefly that health care is complicated. there's a lot of work to do to ensure this is implemented and people are signed up and also some of the extreme weight the

health-care system begins to be reduced but the point about the republican criticism the president addressed that by saying we have been promised a lot from republicans over the last five years, he mentioned death penalty and doom and gloom but republicans promise an alternative and said it hasn't existed because the borrowed conservative principles and mitt romney and others endorsed previously and massachusetts health care program, modeled after that, this administration's health law and republicans hard to make another alternative and that is why the administration in the past has tried to get something done, this is the best that is out there, let's behind it and implement it. >> the president is talking about eliminating waste. if i'm looking to eliminate ways i find private industry does that a lot better than the u.s. government. >> the central debate in the republican party has been how do

we respond to obamacare? there are lots of plans but the party is not united behind one of them. that is what you will see when we have a presidential nominee and they have entirely change the playing field and finally the party has come and said relatively united behind the idea of a we have to have fringe coverage. there will be subsidies if the court strikes down the federal exchanges but you are absolutely right that finally the party is united behind the idea that the 2015 nominee will put forward a plan that will be the republican alternative. >> it does seem that in the polls the popularity of this program, it has over one the american people. we will see what is happening in year can. thank you both. >> he still america's secret but

the couch at the top of the hour. come on. let's do the laughing term. >> looks of little different he is going to try to do that or will he be a different sort of bill, more reserved? >> a good question. >> just kidding, look forward to it, see you guys later. >> fox news alert let's look of the floor of the u.s. house, the new president afghanistan addressing a joint meeting of congress. this one not so controversial as the last one when benjamin netanyahu spoke. the president seems to be on board with this one. he is thinking the americans, thanking all of us for continuing to maintain a troop presence of 10,000 in his country well beyond the deadline the president promised. he says we, america, must

continue to support afghanistan as it tries to get on its feet after 13 years of war. after the excesses of the taliban he says educating girls for instance, very important to him and the afghan people. we will watch his remarks and let you know the highlights and if you would like to watch all of his remarks there streaming live for you now on foxnews.com. >> rebels have taken over an airport in yemen as the country continues to deteriorate into civil war. this follows the evacuation of special forces on the ground. questions about our counterterrorism campaign overseas inside yemen and outside yemen the security officials are warning our lack of presence in the middle east and north africa is in meeting our ability to track terrorists. groups like isis are active on social media. simply overwhelmed. to talk more about this,

security expert and author of the new book data and goliath. great to have you on the program. we like talking about these subjects. 90,000 is the number, some are floating as the amount of twitter posts and social media posts that isis puts out every day and in fact one of our top counterterrorism official says we have an effected counter narrative but the sheer volume we are losing the battle every day. what do you make of this? did we not get our hands around the amount of social media posts out there? >> it is not the amount. it is the message is overwhelming. when topics trend on twitter it is all you hear about and it is a matter of isis is media savvy and they know how to use social media and they're getting their message out and are very effective that it. other sites are good at this. we see the same in the arab spring in turkey. this kind of thing happens. >> what do we do about it?

>> they have our message and they are good at getting the message out. they are going to get their message out to their people better than we are as outsiders trying to get our message. it is not good versus that or better and worse, insiders vs. outsiders. our propaganda campaigns into these countries won't be as effective as their message to their own people. >> there are those that say something else is going on, security officials point to ed snowden and say he made all these leaks about the nsa we have been hampered because we can't do what we have done before when it comes to surveillance. what do you think of that? >> i would be suspicious of those claims. a couple things we obscene. a lot of these people use cryptography and encryption years before ed snowden. usama bin laden famously wouldn't use stealth on e-mail, 2010 and before. my guess is the u.s. says we

can't listen to you they are not telling the truth. we won't signal to our enemies we can eavesdrop on them. i assume we are telling them their secrets are safe we are listening to them. >> something to keep in mind. you are the one to ask. you are an expert in this field. the reason this conversation has come up is there have been as we mentioned in the intro, without a human footprint we have less oversight about what is happening in these countries yemen or iraq or syria that makes our surveillance more important but there are those that say it makes old-fashioned spying more important because the technology has gotten so far away from us we need the old-fashioned folks on the ground telling us what is going on. what do you think about that? >> that is certainly true. you get different kinds of information. eavesdropping on communications and being on the ground. as the country descended into chaos we are losing our human assets and there's less communications infrastructure so we will be harder to figure out

what is going on. if you are there is hard to figure out what is going on. is a chaotic time and we will have less intelligence because of that. >> you mentioned encryption. how there are those that are part of these terror groups that are good at social media and encryption. i am curious on this point. we keep going back to places like yemen where yemen has a problem with running water from time to time. how is it in some of these areas that the technology is so advanced versus what we see from our own government. how do you view that? >> it is interesting that cellphone technology for example is very easy to deploy easy to put up cellphone towers and give people running water. there are more cellphones on the planet than news brushes. that is paradoxical from where we're sitting but sometimes these technologies work even as everything else collapses. other times you will have the communications infrastructure

collapsed and you are back to radios and running around on foot and speaking face-to-face of is going to be interesting to see how things go. >> something to consider and it is an interesting juxtaposition. great-you on the program. congratulations with the new book. it is one of a dozen. thank you very much. >> there are rising concerns about free in derailment factors like this one. after several crashes, a train carrying highly volatile crude oil, a lack of action to prevent them leaving millions of americans potentially at risk? help brazil reduce its overall reliance on foreign imports with the launch of the country's largest petrochemical operations. when emerson takes up the challenge it's never been done before simply becomes consider it solved. emerson.
