♪ ♪ >> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." >> welcome to the overnight news, i'm don dalor. there was terror that went down in the indonesia flight more than 189 people killed. one of the black boxes shows the effort of the pilot to keep it a lost while computer relentlessly pointed the nose into the sea. >> reporter: from the moment lion air 610 took off from jakarta, something was wrong. the pilots were quickly locked in a deadly game of tug-of-war with a brand-new boeing 737-max 8, fighting until the end. according to the plane's flight

data recorder, a new anti-stall system known as "mcas" kept automatically pushing the nose of the plane down. during the 11-minute flight, the pilots fought the downward tilt more than two dozen times, until finally losing control and crashing into the java sea at 450 mph. all 189 on board were killed. aeronautical engineer peter lemme reviewed the data from the investigator's preliminary report. >> this is a situation where they're flying the plane manually. they don't expect this kind of motion, so that definitely threw them off. >> reporter: investigators believe a faulty sensor on the outside of the aircraft caused the mcas system to malfunction. they also found the plane experienced incorrect readings on its three previous flights. the sensor was replaced, but the problem continued. the pilots made attempts to regain control of the aircraft, but investigators say they did not hit two cut-off switches that would have deactivated the automated system, as was done by the pilots on the plane's

previous flight. boeing says that action was part of well-established protocols for all 737s. >> why did they fly the airplane for 11 minutes? doing the same procedure that, in fact, was not getting them anywhere? why didn't they just turn the system off? if they would have done that, the aircraft and those people would still be here today. >> reporter: pilots for the three u.s. airlines currently flying the max say they only learned about mcas after the lion air crash. the cockpit voice recorder has not yet been found. its contents should help investigators determine what was going on inside the cockpit between the two pilots. >> more bad news for president trump former campaign manager, paul manafort. he cut a deal with about the russian special teams but prosecutors say manafort has been lying so all bets are off. >> reporter: now that special counsel robert mueller has said

paul manafort is lying to federal investigators, the only thing that can keep the 69-year-old from spending the rest of his life in jail is a pardon from president trump-- something white house press secretary sarah sanders dismissed today. >> i'm not aware of any conversations for anyone's pardon. >> reporter: adding to manafort's troubles, the british newspaper "the guardian" reported today, manafort held secret meetings with wikileaks founder julian assange inside the ecuadorian embassy in london, including one in 2016, just months before wikileaks released a trove of stolen democratic emails. manafort called the story totally false and assange has threatened legal action over the story. in september, the former campaign chairman agreed to cooperate with the special counsel in exchange for other charges against him being dismissed. it was mueller's biggest victory to date, because manafort could provide valuable informtion about any cooperation between the trump campaign and russia. in a court filing last night, prosecutors did not reveal what manafort lied about, but

promised to eventually issue a report detailing manafort's about an op-ed and tampering investigator said he is playing the long game. >> >> it's a good hypothesis that he never intended to cooperate and he's angling for a pardon at some point in time. >> reporter: manafort has a history of lying in this case, convicted of lying to banks and the government. he's also been accused of lying about an op-ed and tampering with witnesses. even if the president wants to grant him a pardon on all of this, he still could face state-level charges. president trump is threatening general motors over its restructuring plan that will close five north american plants and eliminate more than 14,000 jobs. here's the latest. >> the presidential

tweet sounded very much like a threat. "the u.s. saved general motors, and this is the thanks we get," wrote a very disappointed mr. trump. "we're now looking at cutting all g.m. subsidies, including for electric cars." he was referring to g.m.'s announced pink slips for 14,000 workers and the closure of five north american plants. what he meant by cutting all g.m. subsidies was not clear. white house economic adviser larry kudlow hedged. >> we are going to be looking at certain subsidies regarding electric cars and others, whether they should apply or not. i can't say anything final about that, but we're looking into it. >> reporter: the government currently provides an incentive to electric car buyers in the form of tax credits up to $7,500, so taking that away from g.m. customers could hurt the company's competitive position in that market. coarng more u.joe wiesenfelder of caom g.m. is focused on the bottom line.

>> they are making some cuts that are unquestionably painful now, but they could help prevent some of the larger-scale failures that we saw in the past. >> reporter: g.m.'s stock reached a three-month high after its austerity plan was unveiled, but began to slide once the president weighed in this afternoon. mr. trump has long promised to revive manufacturing and secure the jobs of american workers, but cheryl jonesco, who has worked for g.m. for ten years, knows her time may soon be up. >> it's just sad. it's devastating, what it will do to this community. overseas the taliban is claiming responsibility for a road side bomb attack that kills three american soldiers. 17 years after u.s. troop as lived there are still 14,000 in country. at least 11 have been killed this year. >> reporter: u.s. forces have waged fierce battles against the taliban in ghazni for months, a of the roughly 14,000 american
