7:04 am
north korean authorities paraded him in front of media. suddenly he was released on tuesday. >> we can confirm jeffrey fowle has been ok'd to be freed and return to his home. >> reporter: informing the state department through a swedish intermediary that fowle was free to go. the pentagon scrambled this government jet to bring him home. fowle then called his wife for the first time in six months, according to their attorney. >> we were digging in and preparing for the long haul. that was the plan at this point in time. and when i say long haul, i mean years. we always held out hope that this thing was going to happen sooner rather than later but we were preparing for the worst case scenario. >> but there are still two americans imprisoned in north korea. 24-year-old matthew miller and 46-year-old kenneth bayh, whose health is in decline after two years of hard labor. this is just the latest profile stunt by the secret of countries. whose leader kim jong-un has disappeared from the public eye for nearly a

7:08 am
>> so there's a lot of coordination that went into this and i'm pleased to see it's being implemented. >> reporter: those who know klain say his role has taken on an odd status. it begins today with a noon pacific meeting with the president and his ebola response team. >> all right, major, thank you. the fbi is connecting isis to three runaway teenagers. officials say the young women were interested in meeting up with fighters from the terror group. all three are home this morning and are unlikely to face criminal charges. bob orr is in washington where investigators say the girls' families tipped them off. bob, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this begin, as you say, with runaway reports on friday. when the families realized the three teenaged girls had skipped school and had taken off with cash and passports. police and the fbi were notified and officials soon discovered the young women had flown from denver, through chicago, and onto germany. they were stopped at the frankfurt airport before they could fly on to turkey. they were briefly questioned and
7:09 am
put on a return flight that brought them back to the u.s. now law enforcement sources say there are indications the girls, ages 15 to 17, were planning on to travel on to syria, where they hoped to link up with radical fighters. sources say two of the girls might have been greatly influenced by terrorist propaganda. the young women had not been completely radicalized. one official said they appeared to be acting out some kind of jihad fantasy. the fbi says it continues to investigate the case but the girls, who are back with their families now, have not been charged with any crime. the officials saying it's a pretty good example of how they can work to stop overseas terror groups if families and friends reach out to authorities with timely information. charlie. >> bob thanks. a new video appears to show isis holding weapons air dropped by the u.s. an alleged isis militant shows off crates filled with hand grenades and small rockets.
7:10 am
american officials say dozens of bundles of weapons were dropped near kobani syria, intended for kurdish fighters who were trying to keep isis from taking over that border town. cbs news has not determined if the video is authentic. and we're getting a rare inside look this morning at people who fight for isis. some who join the movement say it's not a choice. holly williams spoke to some isis suspects in captivity in syria. >> reporter: good morning. after weeks of negotiation, we were escorted into syria by a kurdish group. that's fighting against isis. and allowed to visit a prison where they're holding alleged isis terrorists. in the basement of the prison, the men were led in one by one. the guards are worried about retribution from isis and don't want to be identified but one of the prisoners was terrified for another reason. why are you so frightened?" because i thought i was about to
7:11 am
be beaten," said sulaman muhammad muhammad, who's accused of trying to detonate a car bomb for isis. he denies it. so does his alleged accomplice who was brought in next to tell his story. but kareem who's just 15 years old, admits that he fought with isis. he told us when isis captured his village, they gave him a terrible choice, join them or be beheaded. as it's gone on the rampage across syria and iraq, they've carried out massacre, public executions and other atrocities. the man claims he was drugged with an anti-anxiety medication zolam, before he went into battle. that drug makes you lose your mind, he said. if they give you a suicide belt and tell you to blow yourself up, you do it.
7:12 am
after it, he showed us his battle wounds caused by three bullets to his stomach during a firefight nine months ago. the kurdish fighters who captured him also saved his life. kareem's story is not the first we've heard of isis compelling men to fight. he told us the group holding him believed his account and he hopes he'll soon be released and sent home to his family. charlie? >> holly, thanks. ben bradlee, one of the most important and celebrated journalists in american history, died on tuesday. the retired "washington post" editor was 93 years old. bradlee led his paper's coverage of a scandal that brought down a president. he also shaped a generation of reporters. bill plante is outside the "post" headquarters in washington. bill good morning. >> reporter: morning, and good morning to our viewers in the west. well, ben bradlee was famous and respected for a reason.
7:13 am
he stood up to the u.s. government and doggedly pursued one of the most important stories over the last century, the watergate scandal. >> i just do not believe the first version of events in the city. i don't believe it. >> reporter: as executive editor of "the washington post," ben bradlee brought skepticism to the paper's daily reporting. >> people don't tell the truth. they don't tell the truth in a hundred different ways, and it's become so easy to lie. >> a harvard graduate and world war ii navy veteran, bradlee worked at the u.s. embassy in paris and later "newsweek." there, he became friendly with a neighbor, senator john f. kennedy. bradlee joined "the post" in 1965. under his leadership, the paper class published a classified government study about a war in indochina in 1971 known as the pentagon papers. a risk ratified by a supreme court decision. >> five men were arrested -- >> reporter: but it was "the post's" coverage of the watergate
7:14 am
scandal which led to president's nixon's resignation that made bradlee a public figure. he was portrayed by jason robards in "all the president's men." >> i can't do the reporting for my reporters, which means i have to trust them. and i hate trusting anybody. >> reporter: bradlee kept two rookie reporters, bob woodward and carl bernstein, on the story, rather than replace them with more experienced staffers. reporter bob woodward. >> he had the touch, ability to encourage people, stimulate them but not run over them. >> reporter: bradlee was one of the few who knew that woodward and bernstein's main source known for years only as deep throat was actually fbi associate director mark feldt. >> there was always the bradlee interrogation when you had a story that was high risk. it was never hostile. it was, hey, look we're on the
7:15 am
same team, i'm just trying to check and make sure you've done enough. >> reporter: despite one major embarrassment when "the post" had to attract a false story about a heroin addicted child and return a pulitzer prize, bradlee's tenure was marked by accolades for the paper, including 17 pulitzer prizes. last year president obama awarded him the medal of freedom. and through it all ben bradlee had the last word in washington. ben bradlee was an editor who didn't just do things in the same old way. he set new standards for journalism. and he said, of his own life, i have had a very good time. >> bill thank you so much. he was a friend of mine and there was no one like him. the thing i think that was most impressive was he believed in reporters and viewed the most important thing he could do as every good editor does is hire the best reporters you can find. >> he was friends with many of
7:16 am
the people he covered including famously jfk but he didn't trust everything they said and he still questioned them. i remember the first time i met ben bradlee, i was in college, and he said he wanted to teach a course on how to read a newspaper. i think of him almost every day when i read the newspaper, about where a story is placed what it means. a great man, great editor, inspired so many journalists. >> not only woodward and bernstein but also his relationship with kay graham, the publisher, unique. >> our thoughts are with sally. >> ben bradlee. we'll talk with bob woodward and carl bernstein on "cbs this morning." and washington is often blamed for doing nothing, well, this rn mo a republican senator is highlighting what congress and federal agencies are doing. one program spent $199,000 to study compost digested by worms. another $856,000 went to train mountain lions to walk on treadmills. nancy cordes is here with several more examples of what the senator calls waste.
7:17 am
nancy, good morning. >> good morning. you know, this congress is on track to be the least productive in u.s. history. there is one area where members have stayed very busy. spending money. $10,000 for an oregon children's theater production of "zombie in love." $46,000 for a snowmobile competition in michigan. and $414,000 to update an army video game meant to spur recruitment, a project already more than all this, plus rabbit massages at ohio state university. butterfly farms on oklahoma tribal lands. and an "iron man" suit under development at the department of defense. these expenses are all part of oklahoma senator's tom coburn's annual waste book, a ranking of 2014's top 100 worst examples of
7:18 am
government waste. including out-of-this-world spending on research projects designed by grade school students to be sent to the international space station. plus -- >> laughing classes. we're paying people to understand -- or teach people how to laugh. there's a lot of serious problems in this country. maybe the reason the people aren't laughing is because the government is so inept. >> coburn has been producing the waist waste book for five years. he says it's making a difference. >> we should be ashamed we're wasting money the way we are. if we're watching and hold people accountable, we won't risk the future of our kids. >> some of the spending was authorized by congress. the rest was approved by individual agencies. it all adds up to $25 billion at a time, charlie, when our national debt sits at $17 trillion. >> thank you, nancy. automakers say close to 8

dropping off quickly into the 50s. now, here we have some nice weather to begin with. what a sunrise it was. a few high clouds up above made for just a golden beginning to the day. as we head throughout the day see a mixture of sun and clouds. weak ridge of high pressure with clouds over the ridge but it's strong enough to hold the rain to the north today. that will change by tomorrow. temperatures are going to be in the 60s and the 70s outside. now, the next couple of days could get interesting. i think a chance of some showers north of the golden gate bridge for tomorrow. on friday increasing clouds late in the day the winds will start to pick up, as well. and then late on friday night it looks like a chance of showers into saturday. sunday a return to dry weather. and more sunshine. we are going to check out your "kcbs traffic" when we come back.
