accounted for. president trump says former white house aide omarosa manigault newman lied when she called him a racist. the president tweeted last night, i don't have that word in my vocabulary and never have. she made it up. but a new recording obtained by cbs news overnight seems to back up omarosa's story that several trump advisers discussed an alleged tape during the 2016 campaign. weijia jiang is at the white house, weijia, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, john. trump campaign advisers yesterday denied any conversations took place. but this new recording given to cbs news by omarosa contradicts that. cbs has not been able to verify the awe then authenticity of the but it does appear to confirm omarosa's claim that several trump officials were aware of this tape in which then candidate trump used a racial slur and they talked about how to handle it. >> it rolled off his mouth, kind

of like when you first heard the "access hollywood" tape. >> reporter: former white house aid omarosa claims to have heard a recording of president trump using the "n" word during his time on "the apprentice." >> you would never imagine he'd talk that way. >> reporter: in her new book "unhinged" omarosa claims the trump campaign was aware of the existence of the tape. she described in october 2016 phone conversation with lynne patton, and campaign communications director jason miller, in which they discuss how to deal with the potential fallout from its release. >> i'm trying to find out at least what context it was used in to help us maybe try to figure out a way to spin it. >> reporter: patton then described a conversation she had with then candidate trump about making the slur. >> i said, well, sir, can you think of any time that this might have happened and he said >> well, that is not true so --

>> he goes, how do you think i should handle it? and i told him exactly what you just said, omarosa, which is, well, it depends on what scenario you are talking about. he said, why don't you just go ahead and put it to bed. >> he said it. no, he said it. he's embarrassed. >> pierson denied the call ever took place during an interview on fox news monday night. >> katrina cursed and said, he said it. did that happen? >> no, ed, that did not happen. it sounds like she's writing a script for a movie. >> reporter: the white house and trump campaign have not provided a response to this new development but just minutes ago, pierson and patton issued a joint statement saying no one ever denied the existence of conversations about a reported "a betwe "apprentice tape." of course there were multiple discussions about it. they claim they were only denying one specific conference call with frank huluntz who has

denied ever hearing an alleged trump tape. >> omarosa is with us. her new memoir "unhinged" is published by a division of simon and schuster which is owned by cbs. good morning. >> good morning. >> let's start with the tape. you said you had done some taping when you were fired to protect yourself. >> uh-huh. >> but this is during the campaign. >> absolutely. >> why are you taping things in the middle of the campaign? >> the moment we start talking about the "n" word tape, i was surprised, as you heard on that recording, how no one doubted he said it. in fact, they worked to try to suppress this tape for so long. and everyone says, he said it, he's embarrassed, he doesn't want this to come out. and now they're saying they have never heard these allegations and it's ironic that these are high-level, campaign staffers talking about how to react -- >> -- the question about why you were taping. >> because the truth matters, gayle. in fact, if i didn't have this tape, you all would probably be wondering if, in fact, they did talk about it. she mentioned kellyanne on the tape and says she talked to kellyanne or kelly anne

discussed this with the president of the united states and now he's tweeting at me, saying that he never said it, it's not in his vocabulary, when he discussed this on trump force one during the campaign. >> stepping back from the specifics of the tape. >> yes. >> the question with everything you're saying and you're coming forward, you were taping during the campaign. >> oh, yeah. >> there is this question about your credibility and the fact that you were kind of already tape things and working behind the scenes during the campaign. my father had an expression, you know, we can't hear you because your actions are speaking more loudly. why are people supposed to pay attention to what you're saying now when you're the kind of person who would be taping campaign press conferences -- or phone calls in the middle of the campaign? >> yes, i'm the kind of person who covers her own back. in trump world, everyone lies. everyone says one thing one day and they change their story the next day. i wanted to have this type of documentation so that in the event i found myself in this position where, as you've said, they're questioning my credibility, saying they never discussed the "n" word tape, never heard these accusations, the president had never heard

these accusations, when, in fact, this traape proves they discussed it. >> frank luntz said you never called him, e-mailed him -- >> no, i didn't. in fact, the book said that katrina -- >> he said, i've never heard the president -- >> it's important, in "unhinged" i never say that i spoke to him. katrina pierson, the spokesperson for the trump campaign, says on that recording that she communicated with him and he had heard it. i speak very clearly in this chapter about what happened between katrina and frank luntz. he's absolutely right, i never spoke to him. i was simply reporting what was on the tape. >> he says it's not true. >> why do you take -- >> why do you want to work in a world where you say everybody lies? >> i've been in politics for 20 years. everybody lies in politics. i worked in the clinton administration during the monica lewinsky scandal where he first said he never had relations with her and we found out that that was a lie. i learned very early on in politics that this is a cut-throat world and you have to be tough. 20 years in politics and i've

learned some lessons. number one, you have to look out for yourself. and number two, things change, you have to look out for yourself. >> omarosa there are conflicting reports as to when you first heard the tape where the president allegedly uses the "n" word. there are reports you heard this last year while you were still working in the administration. >> i didn't hear it last year -- >> when did you first hear it? >> i did not hear it until i closed the book and i had an opportunity to fly out to california. had i heard it when i was working in the white house, i would have left immediately. >> so let's say the tape exists. now what? what is the purpose -- so the tape comes out. we hear it. what do you hope will come out of this? >> the sad thing is, as we saw with "access hollywood" it probably won't impact his base. but it does expose him for the racist that he is. >> you also said you and the president in your book have a symbiotic relationship. that you two used each other. what is the nature of your relationship, omarosa? there is all sorts of rumors

about you and donald trump. can you tell us, what was the nature of your relationship? i know you're happily married. i just met your husband backstage. very nice. >> handsome, smart, talented husband, john allen newman. >> what is the nature of your relationship? >> he was my mentor, gayle. he was my mentor for many, many years. and, you know, in 2003, i wanted to be like him. i grew up in extreme poverty in youngstown, ohio. and i aspired to be a billi billionaire one day. >> the two of you never had a romantic relationship? >> absolutely not. >> you've heard that rumor, i'm sure. >> well, that's a charge that's launched against successful women to kind of degrade them and undermine their success. i'm very well educated. i have incredible experience. and i've never had to leverage sex to get anywhere i needed to go. >> what do you hope will come out of this? >> i think the truth matters. i believe we should keep the truth as a priority and this administration, they struggle with the truth and they construct their own reality,

ze deceiving the american people. >> you have everything you say in the book backed up by tape or e-mail? >> absolutely. if you see it in quotes, it can be verified and corroborated and it is well documented. >> it almost seems like a form of blackmail with the tapes. >> i'm not asking for anything. i'm telling my story -- >> but you're -- >> i'm telling my story "unhinged." if you see the quotes, it is backed up and verified. >> omarosa, we appreciate you joining us. a source close to aretha franklin's family tells cbs news this morning the legendary singer is very ill. franklin who is 76, has battled health problems for several years now. vladimir duthiers is in detroit where the queen of soul's hometown is now rallying around her. vlad, good morning. this is very sad news today. >> reporter: good morning. this is the church where a star was born nearly six decades ago. aretha franklin's father was a pastor here. this street in front of me is named for him. she grew up singing for the

killed. you kind of stop and you think, well, hey, maybe we've gone a little too far with this. maybe there is something we can do. but to say that we can't do anything to address anything about the guns is -- it's giving up. it's not going to help anybody. it's not going to protect anyone, really. >> for me, it's all about can i relate to that person? you know, gun violence to me is, you know, what i see on tv. but sitting next to someone that has been a victim, i can look at it in another way as a gun-toting person. it's not okay when someone like her, you know, another human being has been through a situation like that. >> it sounds like everybody wants us to see each other's humanity in all this, right? >> i think that's what's going to bring us back together as a was a really emotional conversation. and you saw there is some common ground on issues of gun safety reform and to some degree even iaeq but on issues like immigration and health

care, very steep divides. and the fact that these groups of women are getting their basic facts and information from radically different sources makes finding that common ground a lot harder. >> and what was it like when the taping was over? did they run for the hills or did they continue to talk to each other? >> it was interesting. we started out in one place. things got really fraught in the middle, but you saw at the end, you know, there is, when you sit in a room with people and talk to them, you recognize, you know, we're all humans, we're all part of this project called america, and finding our basic humanity is going to be the thing that stitches this country back together. >> it's so hard to hate up close. i say that all the time. if people can get in the same room and talk, good stuff happens. >> colette brought cookies, and thingseople together. carbs. >> food brings people together. >> yeah, carbs. >> yeah, it was very eye-opening. >> the term leftovers, though, was a bit jarring, i have to say, in terms of immigration. >> yeah, the rhetoric around immigration has really been ratcheted up. >> alex, thank you. >> thank you guys. well, the conversation with

in 2015. "bon appetit" called kindred in north carolina a casual restaurant that studied abroad. the top ten enabled them to thrive and open up a second restaurant nearby. here's a look at their story. ♪ >> kindred! >> when we opened kindred, we had a healthy fear of, like, what could happen. i mean, we've put everything on the line. we knew that it had to work. >> we opened in february, which is not really the best time. i distinctly remember a couple weeks in being like, oh, my god, did we just make the biggest mistake of our lives? but -- >> yeah, we had a meeting like right before the hot ten came out, and like, we were, like, we were not in good shape. >> we were treading water, but barely. >> i think we were told we have to make -- or we have to do -- >> a certain amount of money. >> like $35,000 in sales.

at the time we were doing like $20,000. we looked at each other, like -- >> it's impossible! how do we get there? >> being in the hot ten, it forever changed kindred. i mean, it forever changed our family, forever changed our team. without that article, who knows where we'd be. we're super thankful, because literally, our business tripled. i mean, it went from like $20,000 a week to like $60,000 a week like that. >> welcome to hello sailor! >> i think it's 100% based on kindred's success. i mean, without kindred, we definitely, in my ion, wo'tthere'a lo pow i . pushe as made meant to be better. it really motivated us. >> and now, only on "cbs this morning," here are the new restaurants featured on this year's "bon appetit" hot ten. number three is a thai restaurant, ugly baby. interesting name. in brooklyn. number two is maydan.

that's in washington, d.c., with its middle eastern cuisine. and the number one new restaurant of the year is nonesuch in oklahoma city, oklahoma, of course. "bon appetit" editor at large andrew knowlton and julia kramer put this list together and join us at the table. >> thank you. >> i love your introduction, how did a tasting menu spot from two chefs no one's ever heard of in a city no national critic has paid attention to become america's best new restaurant? and you wrote, andrew, you take a bite, and it's boom! what was it? >> i got goose bumps when i heard nonesuch watching the kindred piece and the effect that a list that we put together, that "bon appetit" puts together, can have that kind of effect. not even pride, but also that financial thing. i don't know. teary-eyed just to watch all that. >> like a proud parent. >> i am. we're proud parents. >> you are. >> what is the answer, then, to the baby oklahoma city, then?

which is, how does it ride up out of all of the other restaurants? >> i discovered about this restaurant, nonesuch, on instagram, of all places, just one late-night session going through the rabbit hole, looking at all these beautiful -- and i came up with this dish made of ice with pickled vegetables. and i took it to julia, and i was like, should i go to oklahoma city? >> you've got to go. >> well, i love the role that international cuisine has on american palates, and people are increasingly exploring new flavors. number five, this immigrant story in oakland. tell us about this restaurant and how an immigrant brought their experience to this country. >> yes. this is an amazing story. the chef was born in a refugee camp in thailand and came to this country, settled in texas and then in the bay area, and then when she was in her 20s, went back to cambodia where her parents had fled from the genocide of the '70s, and tasted the food there and was like, oh,

this is what i grew up eating, i need to cook this food in a restaurant, then came back and opened her spot and now it's on our list of the best restaurants in america. >> you also check menu and food trends. what are you finding? >> well, we're finding, except for our number one restaurant, nonesuch, which is a tasting menu, that a lot of chefs have sort of stepped away from that more formal tasting menu format, and they're just cooking what they love. i mean, one of the restaurants on our list is called umica aricara in cambridge. they make one thing, and that's it. >> and it's in a food court in leslie university, which i didn't even know existed. you walk in and there are 12 seats, and you kind of stand there and watch this beautiful art happen and you eat this kind of bowl that takes you to another place, vudan. >> i love your descriptions. one is the chili whisperer doesn't care if you can't stand the heat. half the fun of looking at the pictures is reading what you write. such a good job.

thank you for coming on again. >> we should go along for a tasting. >> we'd love to have you. >> first stop in oklahoma city, oklahoma. >> i still want to go to turkey and the woof. thank you. head to "cbs this morning's" facebook page to see more of "bon appetit's" top ten restaurants from around the country and read more about the hot ten in "bon appetit's" september issue, you know, the one with the great cover? it hits stores today. and a reminder, you can hear more of "cbs this morning" on our podcast, available on apple's podcast app or wherever you like to get your podcasts. today, norah talks to author amy blumenfeld about her new novel.
