7:16 am
benedict benedict's staff paid him an emotional farewell unsure if they would see him again. the spectacular flight into exile watched live by a worldwide audience. before benedict abdicated the papal throne he said he would withdraw into prayer and live out remaining days hidden from the world. that lasted about as long as it took the new pope to unpack his bags. no transcript of a private conversation and no official word on whether or not the pope and the pope emeritus will meet to chat. a 15-minute stroll from the guesthouse francis has chosen from the grandeur of the apostolic apartment to where pope benedict is. is he weakened by age age but denies is he in failing health. both are traditionalists with

in virginia. we'll look at why the location could make things difficult for authorities j and paula broad well breaks her silence. you'll see what she has to say about her affair with former general and cia director general petraeus, and she talks about her future. that's ahead. advertisers know that being edgy can pay off but in some cases their effort to stand out backfires and terrell brown shows us why some countries are facing a firestorm of controversy. this controversial ad featuring a police lineup of five black men and a goat seems to have fallen flat. a white cop urging a bruised and battered white woman to accuse the mountain dew-crazed goat. >> keep your mouth shut. keep your mouth shut. created violence against
7:32 am
women. the ad was reyated by advertiser and producer tyler creator and they were all members of the group odd future which might explain the casting. his spokesman told cbs news that while tyler is known for pushing boundaries and pushing stereotypes through humor, it was never his intention to offend. this latest controversy coming after a general motors ad featuring ching ching chop suey. people claimed it was offensive to asians and gm apologized. they also make hay over a volkswagen advertisement over a jamaican attitude. despite controversy jamaican tourists said they loved the ad and volkswagen stood by it, which means perhaps there's a
7:33 am
fine line between edgy and offensive. >> lefrg be all right. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning," terrell brown, new york. gayle king is here along with abbie clawson. good morning. >> good morning. >> tell me about the mountain dew advertisement. >> i am starting to wonder what's in the water. the mountain dew ad not just racist but a little bit misogynistic misogynistic. what happened is they went out, tried to borrow creativity from tyler the creator, trying to avoid controversy, and this is somewhat we got. >> let's talking about tyler the creator. his twitter is #ftyler and he uses the exact word and there's a picture of him eating a roach. i think, abbie, isn't there a
7:34 am
way to be controversial and provocative without being insulting? >> absolutely. listen. we see 250 to 500 add as day, right? and so marketers have to find a way to be surprising provekive, get their attention, but these are mass marer. they have to balance it with culture sensitivity so they're not turning off giant swaths of their producers. i think the question here is how much oversight did mountain dew maintain in the spot. sometimes when you partner with a celebrity they have certain demands. >> door they rely on tyler. he's a young bla black man speaking to a young audience. >> a lot of people don't know who he is and they don't know who's behind the ad and all they see is the ad. >> they know whoa he is now. tyler the creator was not a name
7:35 am
and now they're sitting around. >> and now we're talking about mountain dew but not for the right reasons. >> is there going to be a backlash for mountain dew? >> generally when this happens we don't see a change in market because the marketers react pretty quickly. they pulled it right away. they issued their mea culpa. incidentally i think gm might have the most potential for an impact. >> why is that? >> china is an important market for gm. it's a culture where there's a kind of national lis tick pride right now. they're not even promoting a car that's being sold in china and yet i think it's on the south china morning post. suddenly gm is racist to chinese people. i think that could be potentially problematic. >> that's fascinating. how much does social media pass that along as well? >> that was an ad that was never
7:36 am
intended to china. all it takes is one person to upload it on the internet and. >> and now they all know. >> exactly. >> social media is one of a large number of critics who can get in on the game. >> that's right. and there's a snowball effect. >> what ought to be the test and the standard you know? >> sure. i think common sense, yeah absolutely. it's also about, you know do you have to show these ads to a variety of people. so not just the cool kids who are into tyler the creator. this is an ad that's going to be shown to millions of americans all over. i think you have to find a representative sample of those people. >> i would still like to know the group that they show that too that says it's great idea. it's such a good one because the anatomy behind the story -- >> i think there are more details that will come to light on this one. >> abbie clausen, grade to have

advocates for the victim say the state department and homeland security are investigating more cases than ever. the prop is diplomatic immunity. >> it's very difficult to process someone who has full diplomatic immunity. >> reporter: martina says the justice department can attempt to process traffickers who are diplomats but over 15 years and dozens of cases, she said that's only happened twice. >> you're saying the administration needs to make that decision to prosecute more often. >> that's exactly right. this is a little known and little recognized and horrible side of trafficking in the united states. >> right here in america. >> right here in washington, d.c. i mean literally ten miles from the white house, people being held in homes, forced to work paid nothing. sometimes physically abused sometimes sexually abused. >> reporter: the saudis did not respond to our request for comment. sources confirmed the diplomat

8:20 am
authority of fbi to gather intelligence. they never were before 9/11 and they had to do a really paradigm shift in their mandate. they've been doing it. it's difficult with a bureaucracy that hard. but getting back to the "time" magazine article, in way it's a false dichotomy. i'm not willing to sacrifice my privacy and i neemt willing to ask others to sacrifice theirs. i think if you ask the wrong question, you're going to get the wrong answer. >> what's the right question? >> what's the right question. >> the right question is do we know what the nature is of the ism we're fighting and secondly how best do we deal with it. >> i think if you ask people if they approve of having cameras all over the place in cities they don't like the idea. >> actually no. the poll shows that the tolerance for cameras is very high. something like 80% of people feel like the situation we have in london for example where there are cameras all over the place, it's fine. people don't feel for some reason that's intrusive the way
8:21 am
they think the government would be more intrusive in looking at their e-mail or text messages that kind of thing. >> that's in my mind the wrong question. the government doesn't want to look at their e-mails or listen to conversations in the way that people normally think about. >> so what is the answer? does something have to give here? >> i think people have to know what in general programs involve. i don't think there ought to be secret programs depending on level of generality but there has to be see yet operations. >> but the question is and you know that there are times in which people raise this question. has the government gone too far in its vigilance to stop terrorism or whatever threat there is. >> and their right to raise that question. in my view it hasn't. >> what's the test for you? >> the test for me is whether people are giving up -- certainly is whether people are giving up or being asked to give up rights guaranteed under the
8:22 am
constitution and the short answer to that is no way. >> rick, i think one of the stunning things in the press conference the other day is talking about the threats now, the individuals who are self-radicalized and it's much more difficult to find those people as in the case of the boston bombers. you know in this piece, they have discover 2d 1,000. 21 arrests in just the past three years and those are home grown plots. >> right. so one of the things our piece talks about. >> in less than 30 seconds, rick. >> i'm sorry. home grown threats have increased and they've given the fbi more power since 1978 when the judge increased the powers of the fbi, but they've also had some restrictions about religious facilities and mosques which is a whole new wrinkle. they feel that by reaching tout the islamic communities is a better way to capture terrorists than going into the mosque. a woman battling problems

they are together the less they do it. >> and affection is different than sex. >> yes. >> some people don't know that. some people think if we're going to have a lot of affection it's going to lead to sex and i don't want sex i want affection this particular time. >> exactly. >> let's take on the sex question. how often are extremely happy couples having sex? >> well, if you don't take age into consideration, it's three to four time as week. it's a little daunting. let me add if you're 50 it's a couple times a week. but i think the idea is that they feel that way about each other, not that that's some kind of standard everyone has to do but they've got that connection. >> so three to four time as week. are you extremely happy, mrs. tracy? mrs. tracy says i speak chinese. norah and i are good friends. >> i gave her the answer in the makeup room this morning. it remains between us. >> it didn't come out of left
8:37 am
field. you also say that men and women want the same thing, which this was surprising to me and that was -- >> communication. we're not immune from the stereotypes before you get to data and we thought that men would say sex and women would say row marngs but everyone said communication because, in fact if you're not talking well if you can't talk through things together, everything goes down. >> and six to nine years is the crucial time. we heard about the seven-year itch. >> it's a six- to nine-year itch. it's another about things like going outside. things get habitual. everything from hand holding to other things goes downhill just around then. so i think people know when that kind of thing might start to grab the relationship and pull it away from each other. that would be a time to re-up and start to remember all those things you used to do when you were courting and still dome 'do them. >> you see remarkable enthusiasm
8:38 am
for this subject so i'm seeing what i can learn. all of this is common sense. you want to communicate, feel affection, all of that. all of that is very fundamental to me. >> we did this study in probably ten other countries, translated the questions, and one of the things we found is that we look very pallid and unaffectionate and uninvolved compared to the french, the italian, and the spanish. >> yes indeed. >> we really do. >> but given what charlie said, and you surveyed over 100,000 people, how many people are happy couples? >> well, we want to say how many couples are extremely happy because, you know in fact the -- everybody says they're happy, right? not as many as you would hope. although i thought one of the happiest things of the book was that three-quarters of the people in the book said they would mairry the same person again and three-quarters were as happy as when they started and a
8:39 am
number were happier. >> i have two questions. number one, i just love this idea and always felt i was a lit needy because i like the fact and the communication and being told you're loved. the other question is this is normal. we've defined what normal is. can you be norm amal can you be norm amal alnormal and not like that. >> your normal is your normal. >> of our extremely happy couples, 25% of them don't have sex at all or much. somehow they found another normal and they're extremely happy. >> how old are they? >> they could be much older. they might have things that interrupted that. there are a lot of ways to be happy. this book is useful to you if you thing you want to check out are we as happy as we could be or if my normal isn't as normal as it could be, is there another way to go. >> this book is good for turning it around. you can turned it around.
8:40 am
>> small ways. people forget the magic of holding hands. it's a very important act. it reconnects you. it's hard to argue when you're holding hands or if you do it in a more civilized way. there's things like that along the way. people go no no it's too much to do, and if you do these little things they lead you to the bigger things. >> i could go on. >> you know he likes affection. >> i know. he holds my hand all the time in the morning. >> isn't it powerful? >> it is. >> did you know i kissed him on the air once? >> oh. >> we have lots of love and affection here. >> i'm abashedly needy here. >> it's not needy. it tees right thing to do it absolutely is. >> we love it. okay. if a picture is worth a thousand words, photos taken by a tennessee woman could speak volumes. she's overweight. she says people mock her. john blackstone shows us how she's now putting them in focus. >> reporter: in palm springs
