everyone. vinita nair has the day off so elaine quijano is with us. welcome. >> thank you. >> we have a great show including investigating a growing mystery in washington. it's not dirt or mold, so what is the organism covering key monuments in our nation's capital? >> plus, it's now the world's longest aircraft and it can stay in the air for days. we will give you a tour inside what is being nicknamed the flying bump. >> a trip to the national anniversary of our nation's common ground. we will look at its past and its future. first, our top story this morning. on the heels of another staff shake-up, republican presidential candidate donald trump is facing a new backlash. this time for his attempt to get black voters to vote for him in the november election. >> at a campaign rally near lansing, michigan, on friday, trump asked what
5:04 am
with more on that. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. yes, it was supposed to be a day for a clean slate. but trump's latest attempted outreach to a larger voting block is already being called ignorant and heavy-handed by his critics. >> look how much african-american communities have suffered under democratic control. to those, i say the following -- what do yo sql >> reporter: speaking from a predominantly suburb in michigan, a recent pugh survey says hillary clinton is favored over african-americans. >> you are living in poverty and your schools are no good and you have no jobs. 58% of your youth is unemployed.
5:05 am
speech, hillary clinton responded with a tweet, quote, this is so ignorant, it's staggering. the pitch came on the same day as the resignation of trump's campaign chairman, paul manafort manafort is currently involved in a scandal involving possible illegal payments from a pro-russian political party in ukraine. >> he has to be interrogated. he has to be under investigation. >> reporter: an investigation by ukrainian anti-corruption campaign off the book payments for manafort working for ukraine's past president. >> this is up to the american judges and american judicial system. >> reporter: for clinton, her legal troubles are not over yet. on friday, u.s. district court judge granted a request by judicial watch that requires clinton to provide written answers under oath to questions related to her e-mail scandal. now get this.

"the new york times" reported this week like his pitch itself was like this number about unemployment being over 50%. it's not an accurate number. there are all of these ways in which the things the way he presented the problem was
5:07 am
>> i'm curious. he didn't really go into a black community to give this speech. so it's a peculiar kind of outreach and i'm trying to figure out what he actually hopes to get from it. >> right. one theory is that he understands a part of his problem right now, the reason he is not doing well in the polls is republican voters are soft on supporting him. a fifth of republican men and a quarter of republican women in poll says trump has a problem. his own republican base that may be one strategy. >> let's talk about paul manafort. what effect do you think his resignation is going to have on donald trump's campaign? >> well, the immediate effect it had he had a speech on thursday which is the first time we have seen him give a presidential type speech and 12 hours later only thing people are talking
5:08 am
donald trump's ties to russia he has been trying to escape sometime now and continues the sense that his campaign is constantly in turmoil. >> there was this week a sense there was a strategic shift of some kind. you wrote that 82 days away from election day, trump started running for president. what did you mean? >> i meant he started to seeing he was going to run a campaign and started buying tv ads which is normally done months ago. he gave this speech that seemed like a presidential speech. he brought on people who seem as whole process works, which he hasn't had to this point. >> the clock is ticking as you wrote. you know, even though the election is on november 8th, there are a lot of people who are casting their ballots before then. is there enough time for him to turn things around? >> it's a great question and a weird election cycle. probably. a lot of time is left but time is short which is a weird thing to say. early voting starts next month
5:09 am
to turn things differently. >> we mentioned hillary clinton's investigation, a judge has ordered her to answer questions but do you think she may not have to answer them until the election is over? >> the e-mail challenge for hillary clinton has always been there is always new news in part she has the folks pushing on her and every time he comes into the news she has to answer the questions all over again. >> philip bump from "the washington post" with, thank you. tomorrow morning on "face the nation" on cbs, john republican of laem and michael kranish and marc fisher, author of "trump revealed." and the two will also be on "cbs this morning" on monday. officials say five people in the miami beach zone have been infected. that brings the total number of

the miami area. >> pregnant women were warned to stay away from the zika zones and the virus known to cause severe birth defects. david begnaud is in miami with the latest on the difficulties in fighting the virus in that area. >> reporter: good morning. the sun rises over the beach, it is nice and quiet. but give it a few hours. this is one of the best known tourist hot spot in the world. not only are pregnant women being advised to stay away from here but now the cdc has gone so far as to say if you're pregnant and both of you are worried about contracting the zika virus, you should avoid miami-dade altogether. that, officials will tell you, is not good for business. health officials are more concerned about a tourist coming here to miami beach, contracting the virus and then taking it somewhere else. >> the real concern that we have is that we could see zika continuing to spread for weeks or even months in some of these
5:11 am
foothold. >> reporter: dr. tom frieden, head of the cdc says officials are doing everything in their power to stop the further spread of zika. on friday, florida's governor rick scott announced five new locally transmitted cases in miami beach. the case involve three men and two women. two are still in miami beach. one has returned to el paso, texas, another to new york and a third to taiwan. the governor has come under fire for his response to this new zika zone. >> there have been officials who have suspicion that your office is trying to downplay the zika threat. >> i want to make sure everybody in our state, everybody that is going to come here, you know exactly what is going on. it's very important. >> reporter: over the last two days, there has been some confusion in city hall at miami beach. the mayor phillip levine said this on thursday. >> is there no epidemic. is there no outbreak of zika on miami beach. >> reporter: on friday, he changed his tune, saying the
5:12 am
>> we are not getting information from the governor's office. >> reporter: the mayor is now vowing a rapid response. >> between our efforts and the county's spraying efforts, the last thing i ever want to be on miami beach right now is a mosquito. >> reporter: ground spraying has already started in south beach. mike palma is vice president of hospitality at the iconic clevelander hotel. >> we need to go out and buy bug spray and do things that make it seem and deem safe and i have it available if people want it. people come here to relax and think they are too worried about zika at this point. >> reporter: within the next hour, crews are ground spraying yet again. because of the tall buildings here on miami beach and the wind pattern, aerial spraying, we are told, will not be done because it's not effective. >> david begnaud in miami beach, thanks. 22 of louisiana's public schools are so badly damaged from the catastrophic flooding in the state that they will not be able to open next week when the new school year begins.

the high water. manuel bojorquez joins us from sorrento, louisiana, just south of baton rouge. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. while the water has started to recede in some areas, neighborhoods like this one are not seeing a quick drop. that means that although the search and rescue phase is over here, the recovery has not yet fully begun. the republican nominee for president saw some of the devastatn donald trump and his running mate mike pence visited some of baton rouge's hardest hit areas. >> nobody understands how bad it is until you're here. i'm here to help. >> reporter: trump drawed clear distinction between him and president obama's response. >> you're not playing golf at martha's vineyard? >> definitely. >> somebody is. somebody is that shouldn't be. >> reporter: some vcriticized the president for not cutting his new england vacation short to tour the flood-ravaged area.

5:17 am
extinguished, it could ignite and spread into an area unburned and then we have another big fire going then. >> for "cbs this morning: saturday," carter evans, phelan, california. a teammate of olympic swimming champion ryan lochte is giving his take of what happened at that gas station a week ago and he seems to be blaming lochte. jamie yuccas has more from rio de janeiro. >> reporter: good morning, anthony. i can tell you in order to clear up this international incident, it appears that gunnar bentz has released his own statement about what he says happened at the gas station. bentz said he and his teammates went there to use the bathroom and when the bathroom was unavailable, they went to the bushes behind the gas station. that is when bentz said lockett kn tore down a metal sign attached to the gas station and bentz says that when the guards drew their guns and demanded money
5:18 am
go. bentz has apologized for the incident saying it's taken away from the games and he sought to clarify his role. he writes, quote, number one with, i was never a suspect in the case from the beginning. brazilian law enforcement officials only saw me as a witness. number two, i never made a false statement to anyone at any time. investigators say lochte and the other americans vandalized the gas station before those armed guards tried to stop them from leaving in a cab. authorities were planning to charge lochte and teammate f feigen with causing a crime and feigen was only allowed to leave after paying $11,000 to a brazilian charity. on friday, ryan lochte wrote, quote. he stopped short of saying that he actually lied to police.
5:19 am
four swimmers and lochte may lose sponsorships and many here say he has not taken full responsibility for his actions. >> that part of the story has overshadowed the game the past few days but we still saw history made in rio last night, right? >> reporter: yeah. it's been fun to watch the games. jamaican sprinter usain bolt made history. he anchored meter relay and gold in that event and 100 and 200 meter in three straight olympic games and nine olympic races he won gold each time. no one has ever done that. in the same race the u.s. men were disqualified for an illegal handoff and lost out on the bronze medal. that was disappointing. the team is appealing that decision, though. the united states women took gold in their 4x100 relay.

narula. first up, keeping babies sleeping safe. >> according to the cdc about 3,500 cases of sudden unexpected infant death each year and many could be prevented. a study shows parents may not be doing everything they can to protect their newborns. jon has a look. >> reporter: like so many new parents, janell hanley is focused on the best and safest way to get her 1-year-old daughter cameron to sleep. >> no loose blankets and no her crib whatsoever. >> reporter: she is right. hanley puts cameron to sleep on her back which is the current recommendation by pediatricians but according to a new study this week in pediatrics, hanley is among the very few doing it right. researchers videotaped 160 sleep at 1, 3, and 6 months. at 1 month, 92% slept with loose items like stuffed animals and
5:38 am
at one month, 14 percent were not placed to sleep on their back. by six months, it had more than doubled to 33%. >> i don't worry about the babies when colic is part of the picture. >> reporter: dr. high cow is a pediatrician in brooklyn. >> babies should have their own sleeping environment. babies should also not have any stuffed animals in their sleeping environment. and they should be placed on their back. >> reporter: researchers attribute some of these behaviors to mixed messages. such as the a bedding. but, also, to tired parents. >> it's probably on the part of pediatricians to get the word out a little bit more about sids dangers and we have a lot of jen racial things that have been passed down over and over that we have gotten comfortable with doing that maybe we shouldn't be doing. >> jon, these numbers are pretty stunning. you're talking about 91% of babies sleeping with loose items around them. how do we change this? >> you heard in the piece.
5:39 am
the word out and shows like this to get it out. you're fighting these jen rac generational practices you heard about in the piece. you want your baby to be cozy and that means some toys and a little bit of a stuffed animal. >> yesterday, my care-giver said to me i think your 5-month-old would love a stuffed animal with a blanket on it and let's put that in the crib. i said, no, no! it's so easy for it to happen. >> i saw one case a baby monitor was in there and that was crib. it goes against your instincts but follow the advice of the american academy of pediatrics. >> men area their health. according to a newly released survey by the cleveland clinic is not that popular of a subject. only % of men surveyed said they were likely to discuss it with friends and were far more likely to discuss other subjects such as current events, sports, and jobs. all right.
5:40 am
for a yearly routine checkup. how concerning is that? >> it's pretty concerning. you know, i think men think if i don't have any symptoms, i don't have any disease. i don't have a condition. that is not the way that it's many cases for things like hypertension or even cancer, you could be developing the disease over the course of time and become completely asymptomatic until the point you do develop symptoms and it's late and difficult to treat at that the ability for the doctor to offer early screening for checkups to council and did you say lifestyle changes and also to potentially offer early treatment. not only are men not talking about this, they are not acting on their health and this survey, they only went to the doctor most of them when they had unbearable symptoms or afraid something bad was happening. >> guilty. >> does that sound familiar? >> jon knows it. because he is always bothering me to do this! >> about doing something but we will leave that under the bus. >> how did the mets do last
5:41 am
discussion back to men's health. tara, when it comes to preventive care how do women and men compare? >> a difference in the cdc report they published on average women have 76 visits per a hundred women as opposed to men who have 45 visits per 100 men and that is a difference of about 69%. a lot of reasons that why this exists. some men say they are too busy, they are afraid, they don't to appear weak or vulnerable going to the doctor. and on the other hand, women are used to preventive care when you go to the gynecologists and having a sppap smear and taking their children to the pediatrician. and their friends probably offer encouragement to seek urgent care. we have a long way to go to educating men about their health and prioritizing their health.
5:42 am
their concern was their family's well-being more than their health. i tell my patients when something happens to you, it's not just about you and it affects your family's well-being in a profound way so even more reason to pay attention to your health. >> finally, could your internal clock play a role when you get sick and how severe the illness is? the answer just might be yes. a new study from the national academy of sciences susceptiblity to infection. >> this is a mouse study but there has been data before that shift workers are at increased risk for health problems and that includes heart attack, diabetes and obesity and even a suggestion of cancer. the thought in fact, thun fectit list is interesting why you need a good night's sleep and the

donald trump and hillary clinton don't agree on much, except the nation's crumbling infrastructure. they say it desperately needs to be fixed and both have pledged to spend billions. >> we are going to build and maintain our roads, our bridges, our tunnels, our ports, our airports, our water systems.
5:47 am
our tunnels, our highways, our road, our hospitals, our schools. we have so much to do! >> it's unanimous. here to take a look which candidate has a better plan is derek thompson, senior editor of "the atlantic ". >> thank you. >> how bad is our infrastructure at this point? >> i think everybody agrees infrastructure hold. the question is how big is the hole if you ask the american society of civil engineers they say a 3.6 trillion until 2020 the group that comes out and gives america a grade card. here it is. c's, d's. the most conservative way to put it this. if you look at public construction spending as a share of the economy it is at a 20-year low so clearly there is a hole. >> how did our national infrastructure get to be so bad? >> three reasons why. the first reason is that a lot of the infrastructure is paid for with the gas tax and as americans have driven less and
5:48 am
cars, they have used less gas. that is number one. number two, a lot of infrastructure spending comes at the state level and in the recession and just after the recession, you saw state finances really take a hit. number three, the u.s., at the federal level, has really taken a turn against infrastructure spending. right now on capitol hill, you have a lot of conversations about the budget deficit but not a lot about the infrastructure or investment deficit. so you have a lot of penny-pincher who i think are not thinking long-term about the were talking about. >> how do we compare to other developed countries? >> not well. in europe, you go to china or japan, you observe find the infrastructure, the trains, for example, are absolute word class and we are something less than world class there. ironically, it might be like japan or europe absolutely destroyed in the 1940s in world war ii have to rebuild their infrastructure with more modern materials and with modern intelligence and, therefore, they are ahead of us right now in the game.

the federal government or are we talking about the states? >> it's a patch work of responsibilities. it's the federal government sometimes to allocate money that the states can spend. it's the governors and mayors that have to say, all right, this road is a priority, this road does not need to be repaved. we have the following bridges and this is the one the closest to fall down. it is a confluence of responsibilities. >> there is a great urgency here, where is it? >> i think the best thing think about it repair and building we ve governors and mayors to be able to identify these are the roads and bridges we need to fix. at the same time, one thing hillary clinton has talked about how there is a need to build out infrastructure, particularly 21st century internet structure and provide broadband and wi-fi to every single household. >> what about trump? >> here is what hillary clinton says. trump has essentially said i'm a
5:50 am
something like $800 billion. in term of where they are going amount of specificity how they are going to fund it. hillary clinton said we might raise taxes on businesses and might raise taxes overall on households. donald trump, on the other hand, has made illusions of the possibility of affair infrastructure bond project so americans essentially give the government mane and pay it back with interest and not entirely clear, though, he has a w paper amount of specificity on this. >> are both of these plans viable? >> i think the way to think of this is a spectrum. on the other hand, washington, d.c. wants to spend zero dollars infrastructure spends and the american society of civil engineers that essentially say we need $4 trillion before 2020. we may not get there but may get a couple of hundred million. >> derek thompson, thanks so much. coming up he has gone from leaving his heart in san francisco to leaving his likeness.

5:58 am
that is when i made it when i did that. the fact i might occupy that space in somebody else's childhood is really special and, yeah, no by having a great time on the film so it's not like i'm asked to think about something i didn't enjoy. >> does it give you an international identity wherever you go, people think of "harry potter"? >> yes, i think that is probably fair to say. >> you're part of the world. >> it didn't reach, no. which is really impressive when you think about it. but, no. right. no, there is -- actually, probably new york ne calmer places for me. everyone ignores you. >> what voice on "the simpsons" did you do? >> playing a parody for the main character from twilight. >> let me hear it. >> no, it was my original voice. the second time i had not practiced my american accent in ages and i did it and it was

overwhelmingly white suburb near lansing, michigan yesterday. trump told black supporters while they historically support democrats, he feels they have suffered under democratic leadership. >> look how much african-american communities have suffered under democratic control. to those, i say the following -- what do you have to lose? >> one african-americans favor hillary clinton over trump by an 83-point margin. minutes after the speech, clinton reacted with a tweet saying, quote, this is so ignorant, it's staggering. trump's pitch to african-american voters came the same day his campaign chairman resigned. paul manafort stepped down yesterday in a scandal involving potentially illegal payments from a pro-moscow political party in ukraine. ukrainian authorities say they
6:02 am
million secretly set aside for manafort while he worked for ukraine's government. an order came following a long running public record lawsuit by judicial watch, the conservative legal advocacy group. judicial watch wanted to question clinton in person and under oath. the group's questions have to be submitted by october 14th and respond, which means those answers may not be revealed until after the election. in florida, the centers for disease control say mosquitoes infected about the zika virus have spread to miami beach. but spraying the area could be difficult because of the high-rise buildings and strong wind. officials say five people in the miami beach zone have been infected. that brings the total number of infections in two areas of the city to 36. david begnaud is in miami beach.
6:03 am
>> reporter: good morning. there is yet another travel advisory from the cdc. this one telling pregnant women to avoid the zika zone here on miami beach. it's the secretary of defesecon. the first was west of here in the wynwood area. only the second time the centers for disease control has issued a travel advisory inside the continental u.s. the cases involve three men and two women. two of the five people are still here on the be one person has gone back to el paso, texas. the other to new york. a third person has returned to taiwan. federal health official are telling cbs news, the difficult part in confirming these cases involve getting in touch with these tourists and finding out exactly how long they were here, where they were here, and communicating, at least in the case of the person from taiwan, communicating in the middle of the night to nail down specifics. enough so that the federal
6:04 am
there is a new zika zone here on miami beach. business owners are worried, but as one business official told me, what do i tell my patrons? i have thousands of people who visit me on a wengeekend. what do i do? tell them to put on deet spray and long sleeved clothes? august is one of the hottest months of the year here with temperatures in the mid-90s to nearly 100 degrees. later today, within the next 30 spraying here on miami beach. but there will be no aerial spraying. that is because health officials tell us because of the high buildings and the wind pattern, it's simply not effective. >> david begnaud in miami, thanks. the red cross is now calling the louisiana floods the worst disaster since hurricane sandy. at least 13 people are dead and 40,000 homes have been destroyed or damaged. president obama will visit the

the devastation hit home for one young victim, ethan coma wept when he saw everything in his home was lost. louisiana says fema is starting to pay for hotel rooms and motel rooms for those affected. officials have lifted a mandatory evacuation order in california. at one point more than 82,000 people were told to leave their homes. the fire started on tuesday. it has square miles and destroyed or damaged more than 300 homes and buildings. no deaths have been reported. the cause of the fire is under investigation. last month was the hottest ever since scientists have been keeping record. the deadly floods in louisiana are being called a once in every 500-year event. the raging wildfires in california that forced tens of thousands from their homes. >> some scientists believe these
6:06 am
concludinger, "time" magazine. we saw the tens of thousands of destroyed acres there in california. we see the devastating pictures out of louisiana. why are we seeing these extreme weather events now? >> well, there are a couple of things happening. first of all, it bears repeating again and again, global warming is here, it's happening, it's unfolding as you and i were saying earlier, it's unfolding unfold 30 years ago. we are seeing these high temperatures and this year, it's exacerbated by el nino effect in the pacific and causing higher temperatures and finally cooling off but el nino takes six months before the cooling effect to seep into the atmosphere. this is going to be continuing.
6:07 am
temperature rises, the atmosphere is capable of holding 7% more water vapor which means rain. >> when they call the flooding in louisiana a 1 in 500-year effect what does that effectively mean? >> that effectively you have 0.2% of that flood of that magnitude in that area occurring in any given year. a 100-year f 1,000-year flood would be 0.1%. these numbers are losing their meaning. we have had eight 500-year events in the last 12 months in the united states in six different states. when you have eight events that are supposed to happen only once in 500 years we have a problem. >> coast-to-coast the temperatures have soared with july the hottest in record history and the tenth in a row
6:08 am
record. how do nasa and other organizations track the numbers? >> there are four basic organizations around the world that do this. there is nasa, there is noaa and other areas participate. this is done through a global network of satellite and ships and ocean buoys. it's very important to remember that they measure both atmospheri water temperature because those two move in lock-step. there are a lot of number of climate change deniers say there is a paws in heating in the last 15 years, so climate change must be slowing down. but all that means is that the water is taking up a little more of that heat. heat is heat. whether the air is warm or whether the ocean is warm, we are still feeling the heat. >> it's been one hot summer. thank you.

6:12 am
xarelto? is selective targeting one critical factor of your body's natural clotting function. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking you may bruise more easily, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto tell your doctor about any conditions, such as kidney, liver or bleeding problems. to help protect yourself from a stroke,

6:15 am
adhere themselves to stone surfaces. it's called slime but when you touch it, it's dry and doesn't come off on your fingers? >> correct. again, the slime, the secretions and sugary strand all microscopic, nothing we are going pick up with a naked eye or to glean from a touch. >> reporter: which makes it so much harder to clean? >> correct. >> reporter: the experts don't know where the biofilm came from or how to get rid of it. it's also now in nationa national monument but worst at the jefferson memorial where the white dome is covered in black. >> we have no intention of letting nature take its course and cover a gloriously white marble rotunda with a black and biofilm. >> reporter: so the park service is going on the offensive and experimenting right on the side of the memorial. so this is your test lab? >> these are the test labs. and, if you will, here is untreated biofilm.
6:16 am
put down to this two weeks ago, so we are seeing a couple of weeks worth of change. two on the end here, very noticeable. >> reporter: this one clearly cut a swath through the biofilm but left that orange hue? >> left that orange and one of the things we are asking how long does that remain? >> reporter: the park service went public with the slime mystery this month after people kept confusing the black surface with dirt and that the people were not keeping the memorials clean. this family is 1 of 3,000,0 mil people to visit the memorial each year. >> we did notice it on a lot of them. >> reporter: the park service has now posted signs letting people know about the battle and has received at least a hundred cleaning tips from the public, including jane weber of florida who suggested water.
6:17 am
sight of it? >> no. it's kind of ugly. we got to keen it. >> reporter: judy jacob has helped assemble a global team who are trying to create a slime antido antidote. >> we don't know if the biofilm, aside from an aesthetic problem, is causing damage to the marble or if it is actually protecting the marble. >> reporter: it must be frustrating not to know exactly where this came from and not to know how to get rid of it? >> it is very frustrating. it is one of those things that the more we look into it, the more questions we ask, the more we come up with, all sorts of theories and ideas, but, to date, there is no known permanent solution to get rid of biofilm. >> reporter: and it's growing faster each year. thomas jefferson may have helped propel the red coats, but so far, there has been no luck stopping the black coat, now invading the nation's capital. for "cbs this morning: saturday," mark albert,

6:22 am
days on fueling. johnathan vigliotti visited the aircraft at its hangar north of london. >> the airlander 10 is not what you call conventional. the world's longest aircraft is, in fact, a frankenstein of in thises taking the shape and lift benefits of a blimp and combining them with the maneuverablity of helicopter and load capacity of small cargo plane. but chief test pilot david burns who was at the controls airlander's maiden flight, says you need to look behind the shape of the hull which has been, you could say, the "butt" of some jokes, so appreciate this very modern flying machine. >> what will it do? >> operate from any surface. >> do you see this as a game-changer when it comes to humanitarian crises?
6:23 am
of mud and water. this can land on and take out the engine casualties. >> reporter: we are here underneath the belly of this ship. and area of 1100 tons of cargo can be made. it can spend days in the air without fueling but can't compete with planes or helicopters when it comes to speed. >> the hull is effective get up to 40% of our lift aerodynamically from our wing. it doesn't burst or explode and that gives us the ultra efficiency of basically not having to carry a whole load of weight. and then the engines turn and allow us to get plus or on 25%
6:24 am
like a helicopter can. >> it looks more like a flying whale than a bird and big and slow. not necessarily selling points, but its creators say its range of technologies makes it a little bit different. it doesn't need an airport or to be tethered to the ground like other airships and benefit is that undoubtedly appeal to the u.s. army for whom the technology was originally developed before the program was cancelled due to the troop draw-down in afghanistan and budget cuts. daniel says this allowed the company to buy it back and develop the aircraft for civilian uses. the airlander's biggest challenge has been overcoming its troubled family history. say the word airship and people usually think of the hindenburg disaster of 1937. even modern blimps get a bad
6:25 am
came loose from its moorings and covering across central pennsylvania and tearing up power lines and cause chaos. daniel says there are many misconceptions. >> we have people say it pops like a balloon. no, it doesn't. we can riddle that hole with bullets. the helium is under such low pressure that we gradually see power. with the airlander we are one of the safest of developing its own model. >> i think it's good for the industry. the market is plenty big enough for two people to be in there competing. >> reporter: despite the airlander's considerable size, the sky is plenty big enough too. for "cbs this morning: saturday," johnathan vigliotti, london. >> i love the sight of this thing. i love what jonathan called it a frankenstein of technology. >> yeah.
6:26 am
interesting to me. a combination of the design of the actual airship and the helium. the fact that that technology exists where they can marry all of that. i want to know how it does when there is severe weather. i know what it's like to be in a plane. we know what it's like when you hit a rough patch of turbulence. what does that feel like? >> i've never ridden in an airship but you're right, interesting to how it handles that. it is one huge massive thing. from the red fort the gulf stream waters. we will look at that when we return.
6:27 am
i think you'll like this story, charlie. so it was, you know, we were in eighth grade and we would all just walk around buy bags of beer and the cops would chase us like you don the boys somehow talked us into we were going to flash them. they had a really good argument. like, do it! we were, like, okay. so all of the girls would line up and lifted up our shirts. and all of the boys looked at me and i did not have the biggest boobs at all of the crew but i looked down and shown that everyone else had only shown their bras and i was the only one who went full throttle. i think that is kind of a good metaphor for my whole life. i'm always the one like revealing too much. i thought we were all admitting real things about ourselves.

contradiction that you are a private person but in terms of television, you're every woman. you have this huge profile. >> thank you. yeah. i think we are all, i think like walking hypocrites. i think pretty much. like, there is so many sides to all of us. i'm, you know, very charged politically and i really care about the world, but that doesn't mean that i don't go home and watch every "real housewives" and every "bachelorette." you think, you know, we are dynamic people. >> i like in the book you take on this idea of people singling you out as a female comedienne more. this is what women in hollywood are like. >> yeah. >> that really gets under your skin. >> it does. it bothers me. it's such -- i think -- we were talking about this, gayle. it's so strange. people will say, i usually don't like female comics but you're

6:32 am
wildlife and beautiful waterfalls and a microcosm of the parks and i love it. >> the grand canyon is featured in the september issue of "national geographic" magazine. how has the park changed over the years? >> you would think here is the grand canyon. surely the grand canyon on the face of the earth and absolutely extraordinary site. it wasn't the first national park in our country and wasn't the first ten. teddy roosevelt has to set it in 1908. another decade before congress would agree this deserves to be a national park. >> let's talk about one i've wanted to go to the danali national park in alaska. >> more than 20,000 feet and rises from practically sea level. four miles straight up. incredible relief. when you go there you'll see if the weather is cooperative, you're going to see this
6:33 am
also going to see magnificent wildlife. it's a place that reflects a change in the ethos. to use bus to bring people in rather than have everyone drive in and let the park be mostly wild. it's a place where it's very easy to get into the back country and to experience true wilderness. >> we look at the stunning what is the rule been to help people get interested in our national park? >> i think social media is a tremendous help. it was images more than words that helped build the emotional cases to set these aside. a painting of yellowstone and photographs from the 19th century were so important and we are carrying a tool in our pocket, smartphones, right? these are one of the greatest
6:34 am
ever been devicsed. >> let's talk about this park. >> it was created to preserve wildlife. the everglades was a place where wildlife was in danger. there are dock dials and manatees and so much more. a craze a century ago to wear hats that had bird flumes in them. marjorie stone douglas wrote a book of river grass the everglades and a real champ for creating and supporting that national park so the wildlife could be preserved. now it's more important than eer with clim chanate change an environment changes. >> ford cochran with "national geographic" thank you for the tour this morning. >> my pleasure. here is a look at the
