>> good morning everyone. i am patty ann brown. >> i am heather childers this is thursday, march 22nd. thanks for watching "fox & friends first". >> we start this morning with a fox news lart. brand new alert that the terror suspect and accused serial killer may have killed himself inside the apartment building where he has been hold up for more than 24-hours. they haven't heard from him since last night when he said he would rather quote die with his weapon in his hand. we are getting a first look at exactly who he is. they are releasing this 24-year-old who is kill accused of killing 3 rabbis and a

paratroope paratroopers. he is live on the scene in toulouse. >> about 6 hours ago we heard gun shots from the apartment. we don't know whether that was police or from the gunman himself. since then we are told he has gone silent. police have been reluctant to storm the apartment. they wanted to take him alive. the french government decided that would be the preferable condition. it is unclear what condition he is inside. we mentioned something more about his background. i can add a little bit about that. when he was younger he tried to join the french army and was rejected because of the time he spent in jail. he then decided to join al qaeda returned to france and choose soldiers. >> patty ann browne repo >> time now for your 5 at 5.

protests against the shooting death of trayvon martin. hundreds rallied for justice in the streets. they are calling for the arrest of george zimmerman the neighborhood watch captain accused of killing martin. martin was unarmed at the time. zimmerman has not been charged or arrested because of a state law. martin's parents speaking out. >> there is nothing we can say that can bring him back. i am here today to ensure that justice is served and no other parent has to go through this again. >> my heart is in pain, but to see the support of all of you really makes a difference. >> reverend sharpton is holding a rally at the baptist church in sanford, florida. you are looking live at capitol hill where the senate is expected to finalize a bill making it illegal for members of

congress and other federal workers to process from in -- profit from insider trading. the stop act stop trading on congressional knowledge. it failed in the senate which is going with the republican led house version. the state's only female death row inmate. chris kau gail height was convicted in the murder of a knoxville student colleen swimmer. this man regularly visited he's accused of bribery with conspiracy to the other worked as a guard. he took money and gifts to help plan the he escape. a big win for a couple in idaho who has been battling with the epa for five years over property rights. they can challenge the epa. the government agency threatened

to fine them 75,000 dollars a day for building a house on their own land. the agency claims it is a regulated wetland. they will get to review the claim before the judge. the epa will comply with the high court's decision. coming up on fox and friends at 6 even we will talk with them about how they are gearing up for the new legal battle. did you hear about this? tim tebow now a new york jet. denver trading tebow to gangrene after signing payton manning. the jets gave the bronco's 4th and 6th round pick in this year's draft. they get a 7th round pick back. >> as i look at this you are bringing in tim tebow after signing mark sanchez for a 3 year extension for $40 million. you have guaranteed some type of quarterback controversy. >> the deal hit a snag about a

salary advance for tebow but was later resolved. those are your five 5@5:00 headlines. weeks after rejecting the keystone xl pipeline president obama is fast tracking a portion of it. he is taking credit for it. peter doocy is live with all of this. >> yesterday the president was in nevada focusing on solar energy. today he's focused on the curbing pipeline which would run from curbing, oklahoma down to the gulf. it could become part of the keystone pipeline. >> under my administration america is producing more oil today than at any time in the last 8 years. that's a fact. we have approved dozens of new oil and gas pipelines. we have announced our support for more including one that i will be visiting tomorrow in oklahoma. we have quad troubled the number

to a record high. >> the president will say it is critical for getting oil from kushing to texas. it doesn't go across international line so it doesn't need presidential approval. this is a matter of the state the army corps of engineer and department of u.s. fish and wildlife services. the president trying to take credit for keystone progress is like former vice president al gore taking credit for the int et. daryl ice sis says pretty much the same thing. the problem he has is the only thing done on oil is what he has on private lands in spite of reducing oil exploration on public land. he doesn't have the credibility to say i have done all i can and the prices have still risen. he has done everything he could

to make sure we don't have oil self sufficiency. john bay more says the president handing out these permits when he doesn't have to is like a governor personally issuing a fishing license. peter doocy, live in washington. thank you. >> it's time now for "look who's talking." >> this morning it's bill o'reilly respondling to the president's green energy tour. >> president obama getting hurt because of the rising gas rises. they are trying to persuade us he is on the case. one problem gas prices doubled on the president's watch and his administration invested 100 billion tax payer dollars in alternative energy. the department of energy says one of the loan programs created 61,000 jobs. even if that's true that's $570,000 h

$570,000 per job. nice work if you can get it. the president is correct in wanting green energy but he badly miss calculated how to get there. he run up the debt even further by making speculative government investments which have not paid off as of yet. >> i love his talking points. o'reilly not the only one sounding off. naught gingrich as you can image, he says the president has his priorities mixed up. here's what he had to say on the record. >> he went to nevada to a site in which 5 people have full-time employment for an average cost of 10,800,000 a job. it's a solar power site absurdity economically, nothing to oh do with the price of gasoline and illustrates why electricity is going up in most american states at a dramatic rate. obama's policies both raise the cost of electricity and raise

the cost of gasoline and diesel fuel. he doesn't have a green energy policy, he has a greenback energy policy. he keeps shoveling out greenbacks to failing ideas and propping them up with our tax money and with our children's money. >> well, despite all of this debate it turns out the political cure all for high gas prices more drilling may not be the answer. a press analysis shows in 36 years there has been no correlation between increased oil production in the u.s. and lower gas prices. go figure. well it is time now to brew on this. two big movies -- have you heard about these? hunger games and bully causing outrage and now lawsuits. ainsley earhardt joins us to fill us in on this. >> hi ladies. one of the most highly anticipated films of the year already stirring up controversy. >> keep wishing i could think of

a way to show they don't own me. i am going to die i want to still be me. >> can't afford to think like that. >> the hunger games expected to be a huge success this weekend when the movie hits theaters tomorrow. the problem many say it is too violent for that pg 13 rating. it is based on a best selling nol about teenagers who are selected to fight to the death, while the whole world watches on tv. compounding this controversy an up coming documentary called "bully canni "bully." >> they take things from me. >> do this to him hard. >> bully getting critical acclaim for highlighting what has become an epidemic in our nation's schools. unlike the hunger games it is rated r because it contains profanity. johnny depp wants to get the rating overturned but no luck. now high profile attorneys david boyd and pat olsen are

threatening to sue the motion picture association calling it unfair and damaging to have a film of this power and importance that is being censored by a rating system that has no rational basis. then goes on to say you can kill kids you can maim kids, you can torture them and still get a pg 13 rating but if they say a couple bad words you blame them. is it time to eliminate movie ratings? we want to hear what you have to say about them. tweet us your responses at fox friends first or you can always e-mail us at friendsfirst@foxnews.com. we can look at some of those responses. i wouldn't want to do away with it all together you want guidance. it is definitely flawed. >> 11 minutes at the top of the hour. take a look at this dramatic video an american military chopper loses control crashes into the ground.

business roundtable. these are the economic effect of $5 gasoline. unemployment would go back up above 9 percent. ddt would go up 1 and a half percent. many stores wouldn't do so well. harley davidson, they wouldn't do well and the boating industry would get crunched. not only do you need fuel to run the boat, you knead fuel to get to the boat. >> it effects everything across the board. the trickle down effect. the next thing is the buffet rule. >> warren buffet said to tax millionaires. the joint committee on taxation finds this rule passing millionaires would only bring in 47 billion over 11 years. that's the equivalent of 4 billion a year. honestly you might as welcome
