"ctm" national lead correspondent david begnaud is on cape cod. what a tragedy. >> reporter: the "new york times" is quoting two sources close to the family saying saoirse kennedy hill died of an apparent overdose. cbs news has not independently verified that.

as of this morning the family has not yet released a preliminary cause of death. saoirse was the only child of courtney kennedy hill and we first got word about this yesterday when there was a call made to 911. police and paramedics swarmed the usually quiet affluent massachusetts beach town thursday afternoon. they were called to a home that is owned by robert f. kennedy's widow ethel kennedy. cbs news has learned the call was in regard to one of robert f. kennedy's 35 grandchildren, saoirse kennedy hill. the family later said saoirse died but they haven't said how. the hyannis port compound has been home to multiple members of the kennedy family dynasty including president john f. kennedy, who famously used it as a summer white house. it consists of three homes and is located on six acres of land right along the nantucket sound. in a post on twitter back in 2014, saoirse wrote that her favorite place to vacation is

hyannis port. a student at boston college, she was vice president of the college democrats and was peed t graduate next year. her family says she was passionately moved by the causes of human rights and women's empowerment and found great joy in volunteer work. saoirse made headlines back in 2007 when she was just 10 years old after she was allegedly the victim of an abduction attempt. according to an article in "people" magazine she was walking home from playing tennis in cape cod when a white van with two men inside pulled up beside her. she ran away. in an op-ed for her high school publication nearly a decade later saoirse described the struggle with mental illness. she wrote, my depression took root in the beginning of my middle school years and will be with me for the rest of my life. she said she took a leave of absence from school to get treatment and encouraged others to be open about their struggles. in response to the news about the death here at the kennedy

compound, 91-year-old ethel kennedy said, quote, the world is a little less bright today. vlad? >> david, another tragedy in a family that has seen their share. thank you very much for your reporting. president trump is sharply escalating the trade dispute with china, putting u.s. consumers in line to pay higher prices for thousands of products. the president rallied with supporters in cincinnati last night after threatening a new round of tariffs. they would add 10% to the cost of another $300 billion a year of chinese goods. the new threat led to big losses on wall street yesterday. how are the chinese responding? >> reporter: well, overnight china's foreign ministry says if the president does go through these new tariffs that china will retaliate and that would likely mean higher tariffs on american products. at his rally in ohio, the president said he is going to, quote, tax the hell out of china, but he did save his harshest rhetoric for democrats.

>> america will never be a socialist country, never, ever, ever will it be a socialist country. >> reporter: the president is in full campaign mode, calling democrats socialists who want to destroy the country. >> democrat lawmakers care more about illegal aliens than they care about their own constituents. >> reporter: a protester with a sign that said, immigrants built america, caused the president to pause his speech for nearly five minutes, an interruption he then blamed on a democrat. >> cincinnati, do you have a democrat mayor? well that's what happens. >> reporter: the president offered a scathing takedown of major american cities. >> the homicide rate in baltimore is significantly higher than el salvador, honduras. look at los angeles with the tents and the horrible, horrible disgusting conditions. >> reporter: ohio is considered essential to the president's re-election. >> thank you, ohio. we love you, ohio.

>> reporter: in 2016 he beat hillary clinton there by eight points. but in a recent poll, president trump currently trails joe biden in the state by eight points. >> we are finally putting america first. >> reporter: while american consumers are footing the bill for the tariffs already in place in the ongoing trade war, the president once again claimed otherwise. >> you're not paying for those tariffs. china is paying for those tariffs. >> reporter: mr. trump says china might be dragging its feet on a trade deal in the hopes of a new negotiator. just sign right there. oh, okay. i'll sign. >> reporter: president trump says the new tariffs will go into effect on september 1st. if that happens, it basically means there is a tax on everything that china sends to the u.s. that's everything from t-shirts and tennis shoes to ipads and ipods and there are no new trade

talks scheduled until after september 1st. >> ben, thank you very much. the commander of the navy special operation forces is sounding the alarm about a breakdown in discipline in the elite navy seals. his call to action follows a series of disturbing incidents involving members of seal teams. david martin is at the pentagon. david, what prompted this dramatic step? >> reporter: good morning. the navy's top seal commander says some of his units have failed to maintain good order and discipline. so the seals, who were once the most glorified unit in the u.s. military, their commander now says, we have a problem. >> we've got a sense of urgency. >> reporter: rear admiral collin green the head of naval special warfare put those words in boldface and underlined them in a letter he sent to his commanders after an entire platoon of 22 seals was pulled out of iraq. they had been involved in a drunken fourth of july party

which resulted in charges of sexual assault and then refused to cooperate with investigators. >> a code of silence. >> yeah. code of silence. you're not part of the brotherhood if you speak out against, you know, whatever. >> reporter: retired navy seal eric deming is one of several former and current members of the elite unit who shared stories of corruption with cbs news. >> reporter: is this a few bad apples or a system gone wrong? >> it used to be just a few bad apples but they have been able to rot a lot of the apple cart. >> reporter: the platoon sent home from iraq was part of the same seal team as chief edward gallagher accused of murdering a teenage prisoner there in 2017. he was acquitted of that charge but convicted of posing with the prisoner's body. his commanding officer was accused of knowing about it and failing to report a war crime. another member of the team was under investigation for having committed perjury during the trial. deming says he has become disillusioned with the seals. >> i got two boys old enough and

i wouldn't even let them be part of it. >> reporter: really. >> i would not. >> reporter: it's not just the seals who have a problem. the chief of naval operations has decided the prosecution of chief gallagher was so badly mishandled that he has thrown out the charges against gallagher's commander and he has ordered a review of the navy's entire legal staff. anthony? >> very disturbing, david. on afghanistan, the pentagon is preparing to withdraw troops from the country. what do we know about that decision, david? >> reporter: the u.s. military is willing to go from the current level of 14,000 troops down to about 8500 as part of an initial peace deal with the taliban. but here's the important thing to understand about the prospects for peace. the taliban want all foreign troops out and the u.s. military is not willing to do that. and the reason is that isis is

also in afghanistan and the pentagon says it needs to keep troops there in order to go after isis, which is still actively plotting terrorist attacks against the united states. >> david martin at the pentagon, thanks. former vice president joe biden is defending the obama administration after his rivals for the democratic nomination criticized its record on health care and immigration in wednesday's presidential debate. ed o'keefe is covering the road to 2020. ed, what does the former president say about these attacks? >> reporter: good morning. a source familiar with president obama's thinking tells cbs news he is not concerned about his legacy and has no plans to campaign with any candidate this year. they face a long month of campaigning before the next debate in september. hoping to build momentum from this week's debates, massachusetts senator elizabeth warren rallied supporters in arizona last night promising action on climate change, gun

control, and immigration. >> we need big change in this area. you know where it needs to start? we need to expand legal immigration in this country. >> hello, detroit! >> reporter: candidates like senator cory booker know august is a crucial month to build support for their campaigns. that's why they'll make stops in the coming week in the early states of iowa and nevada. former texas congressman beto o'rourke is already in las vegas spending time with potential voters and not losing sight of the upcoming september debate in his home state. >> we qualified for the september debate in houston and i'm super excited to be there. >> reporter: o'rourke is one of only eight democratic candidates who has already met the requirements to take part in the third round of debates next month. at least two candidates are close to qualifying. to make the debate stage candidates must hit at least 2% in four national polls and raise money from at least 130,000 unique donors. candidates who haven't yet met

the threshold including new york senator kirsten gillibrand have until the end of the month to do so. >> i'm looking forward to september and going to keep working hard to lift uch my vision for the country and why i'm unique. >> reporter: front-runner joe biden is several steps ahead, confident he can take back key battleground states that helped president trump win in 2016. >> if i get the nomination, i will win michigan. i promise you that. i will win pennsylvania. i will win ohio. >> despite the attacks on mr. obama's record during the debates the former president still polls very well with members of his own party. a recent cbs news poll asked democrats about him and found that nearly 60% of democrats rated his tenure as, quote, excellent. so any candidate likely attacks his legacy at their peril. michelle? >> thank you. good point. president trump is downplaying new missile tests from north korea as american negotiators try to restart nuclear talks.

south korea says the north fired two more short-range missiles into the sea of japan. it was pyongyang's third missile test in eight days. talks aimed at denuclearizing north korea have stalled since president trump's meeting with the north korean leader kim jung un last year. the chief u.s. envoy met with his south korean and japanese counterparts this morning in bangkok to discuss resuming talks with the north. the legal teams for two american teenagers accused of murder in rome are stepping up their defense this morning. authorities say gabriel natale-hjorth and finnegan elder stabbed and killed an italian police officer. the father of finnegan elder visited his son in prison for a second day this morning. seth doan is outside the prison where the teens are being held. >> reporter: we've just confirmed with the lawyers that they have filed a motion to release the teenager from prison during the period of pretrial

detention which could stretch on for sometime. the two teenagers have not yet officially been indicted. it could stretch on for up to 18 months before we see an actual indictment. you may recall that natale-hjorth was the teenager we saw the photo of blindfolded at the station and we know from the family statement the meeting in prison earlier this week between him and his father was difficult and emotional. it's likely that the defense will argue it's just too much for the 18-year-old. now, it is his friend finnegan elder who is the one accused of actually stabbing the plain clothes officer but in italy it is important to note that someone can be charged with murder even if he o are she did not actually carry out the slaying. in italy the defendant has the right to be kept in the least restrictive custody possible. that's why there is this special tribunal set up simply to review this pretrial detention. a decision is expected by the middle of the month. the judge in this case will likely be weighing a number of things including the possibility

that natale-hjorth could tamper with evidence or could flee. we expect his lawyers to argue for something along the lines of house arrest. we also know that natale-hjorth's grandparents live just outside of rome. we understand from an american legal source that this period can be very difficult for defense teams here operating in italy because, anthony, they do not have access to all of the same legal documents the prosecution does. >> all right. thank you, seth. video from a washington state trooper's patrol car captured a small plane trying to make an emergency landing on a busy stretch of road. the officer turned on his dash cam as the low flying single propeller plane came toward him. he made a u-turn to block traffic and followed the aircraft as it approached the road. it eventually landed safely just before a red light at an intersection. the pilot says the plane lost power. amazingly, no one was hurt. quick action by that police officer. >> absolutely. does he give him a ticket?

>> he stopped for the red light, so -- >> i know, right? >> not necessary, right? a little bit more serious news this morning, r & b singer r. kelly is set to be arraigned in federal court in new york. prosecutors say the 52-year-old grammy winner, his managers, body guards, drivers, and personal assistants made up an enterprise that recruited women and girls to engage in illegal sexual activity with kelly. kelly's attorney douglas anton told "ctm" national correspondent jericka duncan yesterday that kelly may have acted like a rock star but he did not engage in a criminal enterprise. >> the staff, if approved, for some of the gratuitous fans will fly them out, have them come to the shows, go to maybe dinners with some of the members of the band and eventually get back stage and meet the band. >> reporter: but this indictment is alleging people were involved in helping create an environment in which r. kelly would have

sexual relations with underage girls. >> that's just plain out wrong. that's not the environment that was created. that was never an intent of anyone involved. it was just not done. >> kelly maintains his innocence and also faces criminal charges in chicago in both federal and county courts. his attorneys say kelly will likely be sent back to chicago where he will remain in jail until his trial. promising new research could be a break through in detecting alzheimers disease. ahead, how a blood test could on friday morning to you, a great start to the day with clouds and fog along the coast and for parts of the bay. as we head to the afternoon will have clearing for most of us with the sunshine. attempts warmer compared to yesterday, 89 in concord, 90 in fairfield, 82 san jose, 73 oakland, 66 san francisco. temps warm-up saturday and sunday, then cooling back down

all right. we've got a few stories we think you will be talkiyo about today. the only black republican in the house, texas congressman will hurd, announced yesterday that he will not run for a fourth term. hurd is one of the few elected republicans to openly criticize president trump. he's clashed with him over race and immigration. hurd is the sixth house republican in the last two weeks to announce they are not seeking re-election. cbs's "face the nation" will have an exclusive interview with congressman hurd on sunday. that would leave tim scott as the lone black republican in congress. >> fewer and fewer moderates on that side of the aisle. >> yes. >> hurd won a couple very close races the last couple times. he ran sort of his district i think did not go for trump but he managed to pull out a victory. so it is an interesting development. >> democrats certainly eyeing his district. >> yes. targeting it already. >> i like what he says though. he says he'll stay involved in politics to help maybe sure the republican party looks like america. that's something they tried to

do in the wake of mitt romney's loss. they slipped back a little. >> 20, 30 years. >> we'll stay with politics for our next story. puerto rico's governor is set to resign today and there may not be anyone to replace him when he does. ricardo rossello is supposed to step down this afternoon after weeks of massive public protests. he has nominated a veteran politician and attorney to become secretary of state, the position next in line to become governor. but the senate president says he will not vote for him. and he says there will not be a confirmation hearing on his nomination until monday. the next person in line the justice secretary has already said she does not want the job. >> not to have a line of secession that's working is a problem. >> you have to feel bad for the people in puerto rico. >> absolutely. >> on the other hand, shout out to those individuals, the people who got out there and rallied and protested and effected change. that's what you want to see when

you take to the streets. >> exactly. with questions of corruption there certainly. we switch gears. scientists have been trying to develop a blood test to detect alzheimer's for decades. now they might have one. researchers at washington university in st. louis say they have devised a test to measure abnormal amounts of a protein in the blood that has been linked to the disease. when combined with other risk factors they say the test i 94% accurate. it might be able to detect alzheimer's up to 20 years before onset. the test is said to be more accurate than brain scans but will not be available for clinical use for years. the big thing with alzheimer's a lot of doctors agree upon is that the earlier you can detect the better the ability to maybe stave off the disease. >> this is huge because community doctors have found only about 50% to 60% accurate in actually being able to diagnose the condition so if they can diagnose it that would be a giant step. >> the question is how many people would actually take the test to find out if they had alzheimer's.

>> you'd hope they would because it is the idea then maybe you can slow the progression if you symptoms.it before you see those good news on that front. perhaps good news here. when the chicago white sox recently became the first major league team to extend the protective netting all the way to the foul pole it was supposed to protect fans from foul balls. but new york mets outfielder jeff mcneil found a whole new way to use it. check this out from yesterday's game. >> right field side. mcneil on the run toward the line. mcneil into the net and mcneil makes the catch. what an effort he really is a flying squirrel. >> he is. i was thinking he hurled himself into the extended netting to make that catch. obviously we talk about that protective netting to help protect the fans. well, we saw the netting work. we saw him still be able to get the ball. and, anthony, the mets won the game, 4-0. that's the most important part.

imtiaz ty ♪ ♪ good morning to our viewers in the west. it's friday, august 2nd, 2019. welcome back to "cbs this morning." ahead, another tragic loss for the kennedy family. we have the story of robert kennedy's granddaughter who died yesterday. plus, rapper asap rocky testifies in his own defense in sweden where a judge could decide his assault case today. and our work in progress series looks at why so many companies tolerate rudeness on the job. first, here is today's "eye opener" at 8:00. "the new york times" is quoting two sources close to the

family as saying saoirse kennedy hill died of an apparent overdose. president trump is sharply escalating the trade dispute with china, putting u.s. consumers in line to pay higher prices. the president said he is going to, quote, tax the hell out of china, but he saved his harshest rhetoric for democrats. the s.e.a.l.s, who were once the most glorified unit in the u.s. military, their commander now says we have a problem. despite the attacks on mr. obama's record during the debates, the former president still polls very well with members of his own party. so any candidate likely attacks his legacy at their peril. they have filed a motion to release the teenager from prison. the two teenagers have not yet officially been indicted and that could stretch on for up to 18 months. a new senate bill called the social media addiction reduction technology act is being introduced to fight social media addiction. >> you have to admit it is becoming a real problem.

social media is messing with our brains. like yesterday my buddy told me something that i liked and i just tapped her twice on the forehead. it's a problem. >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" presented by toyota. let's go places. i'm anthony mason. gayle king and tony dokoupil are off. so cbs anchor vladimir duthiers and "cbs this morning's" saturday co-host michelle miller are here. the kennedy family once again is dealing with a sudden unexpected loss. senator robert f. kennedy's 22-year-old granddaughter died yesterday. >> saoirse kennedy hill was found unresponsive and pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. ctm lead national correspondent david begnaud is near the scene on cape cod. david, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. saoirse kennedy hill was the only child of courtney kennedy hill, who was the daughter of the late robert f. kennedy. police were called to the kennedy compound in hyannis port, massachusetts, yesterday.

the compound was once used by president john f. kennedy as a summer white house. this is where police arrived and found the body of the 22-year-old gunning girl. "the new york times" is reporting she died of an apparent overdose. i should tell you that cbs news has not confirmed that. the family said our hearts are shattered by the loss of our beloved saoirse. her life was filled with hope, promise, and love. the kennedy family is no stranger to tragedy. president john f. kennedy was assassinated in 1963. his robert robert f. kennedy assassinated almost five years later. at least five members of the kennedy family have died in plane crashes. saoirse kennedy was a student at boston college. she was set to graduate next fall. she was studying communications. her grandmother ethyl kennedy said in a statement, the world is a little less beautiful today. >> david begnaud on the cape. thank you. the american rap star on

trail in sweden for assault could learn his fate today. asap rocky his cousin and a friend accused of attacking a 19-year-old man in stockholm on june 30th. he told the court yesterday he was defending himself. imtiaz tyab is covering the trial. what have we learned from any other witnesses this morning? >> reporter: good morning. the district court here in stockholm, which normally isn't quite so busy, heard from a string of witnesses in that packed courthouse, some in support of asap rocky who just a day ago we heard from for the first time since his arrest. >> we are in this foreign country, we're approached by two strangers with aggressive behavior. i don't know what to expect when being approached by strangers. that's why i have security. at that moment i wasn't thinking about anything but defending ourselves. ♪ >> reporter: the rapper, whose

real name is rakim mayers, told prosecutors he didn't want to fight. >> at this point we don't want to provoke these guys. we just want to diffuse the whole situation and we want to get away from these guys. >> look, juwe don't want no problem with these boys. >> reporter: swedish prosecutors say they aren't buying it, calling the video heavily edited and accuse rocky along with his friend and cousin of aggravated assault. the grammy nominee's trial in a district court has become an unlikely international incident. >> i have been called by so many people asking me to help asap rocky. >> reporter: with the president and several celebrities joining the chorus of voices calling for the rapper's release. president trump even sent the u.s.'s top envoy of hostage affairs, whose job is normally to help free americans from war zones, to stockholm. but sweden is no war zone, and rocky not a hostage.

rocky's trial is set to end today. it isn't the end of his swedish court ordeal. the judge presiding over the case has up to two weeks to decide a verdict, which, if guilty, the rapper could see prison sentence of up to two years. michelle. >> imtiaz tyab in sweden. thank you. more changes coming to saudi arabia as the kingdom grants new rights to women. new laws made public today allow women to apply for a passport and travel without permission from a male relative. holly williams is following the story from istanbul. how big of a deal is this? >> reporter: good morning. well, this will be life changing for many saudi arabian women. let me explain why. they still live under the so-called male guardianship system which means that saudi women need permission from male relative, a father, husband, brother or son to make key

decisions about their own lives. but the powers of male guardians are gradually being stripped away, including now their right to dictate whether women can travel overseas. this follows a string of high-profile cases where saudi women ran away from their families, escaped overseas, and then sought asylum. those cases have been very embarrassing for the saudi authorities. but let's remember there are still several women's rights activists in prison in saudi arabia, and there are accusations they have been tortured. the leader behind these changes, crown prince mohammad bin salman is widely suspected of involvement in the killing of jamal khashoggi. khashoggi was a journalist in saudi government critic killed inside the saudi consulate in istanbul last year. the crown prince is undoubtedly a social reformer. saudi arabia is still a very long way from being a free country. anthony. >> a very long way indeed. holly williams in istanbul. thanks. a road accident in

california prompted strangers to come together in an inspiring way. ahead, what they did to rescue a good friday morning to you, a great start of the day with clouds and fog along the coast. as we had through the afternoon we will have clearing for most of us with sunshine. temps warmer compared to yesterday, 89 in concord, 90 in fairfield, 73 oakland, 66 for san francisco. temps warm up even more saturday and for sunday, then cooling back down by next week.

it can be tough to face rude people at work as phyllis on "the office" found out on one of my favorite episodes. >> i asked for assorted cutlery and i got spoons.

>> i want to understand what you are saying but it's difficult when you use that tone. >> and phyllis is not alone. estimates suggest an incredible 98% of employees are treated rudely at work. look at that, michelle miller. dan roth is in the toyota green room with why victims of rudeness tend to get the blame. >> let me. it was not me. >> you're watching "cbs this morning."

♪ why you got to be so rude? >> what a great song coming into this segment. this morning we are looking at rude innocence the workplace as part of our series with linked in called work in progress. an estimated 98% of employees deal with difficult people at work. new research from harvard business review shows victims of rudeness are the ones being blamed. it also found managers perceive those victims to be poor performers on the job than employees who were not mistreated, regardless of actual performance. and dan roth has stori from linkedin and the impact of rude behavior at work.

good to see you. >> thanks for having me here. >> dan, explain to me, why are managers blaming employees who report that people are being rude to them. >> it is not surprising that people are rude to each other in the office. we are rude to each other all the time everywhere. >> we're stressed out. >> exactly. it's hard. but in the workplace, what was really great, we started a conversation about this on linkedin, and people started weighing in and they didn't mind it, they knew people would be rude, what really broke them and sent them in tears and had health issues when they reported to the managers and the managers came back and said you're the problem. i think this happens is number one, you got to make your numbers, and number two, you are just trying to get through the day, and someone comes to you and says this person is causing me a problem, managers say i don't have time for this. >> i don't want to deal with it. you deal with it, please, let me do my job. that is one big thing. the other thing, in the study, they say this, if a manager is friends with the person who is being accused of being the bully in the office, or being rude, your complaint will go

absolutely nowhere. you have no shot. and we kept hearing story after story of people saying this happened to them and they had just chicked oecked out, they w going to pay attention to work. >> i am literally counseling someone on this right now. what is the effective way to deal with rudeness in the workplace? >> number one, the more you can try to just move on past it, you can. if you can, leave the company. the key is being in a workplace culture where they actually support you for this. and some of the best companies will do things like have a third party come in, and evaluate what's going on. so that you don't have these kind of interpersonal conflicts, interpersonal relationships that can change how you view the person who is reporting the problem. what's the impact on the company itself? >> look, it is an incredibly tight labor market. know that 70% of workers say they will not work in a place with a bad corporate culture. you are losing your best talent if you have a culture like this. if they're not quitting, they're

checking out and what you don't want is a bunch of unproductive people who are coming in and miserable at work and just collecting a paycheck and getting out of it. you can't stay competitive if you do that. >> so managers out there, if you're listening, and now you're aware, what should they do? >> that's a great question. there's training that you can do. you can learn to be more judicial. and the authors of the study talk about this. judges have to go through training to learn how to listen to complaints, and not take it personally. and think through what the problem is. it's worth doing training. an executive from pwc wrote in and said we do a. i. training, a. i. and virtual reality training to help people through tough, help managers deal with tough situations and learn how to process these complaints, and what to do about it. so if you're running a company, you got to put in processes and training to get your managers to understand how to listen to these complaints and not just blow them off or blame the victim. or blame the reporter. >> and is technology contributing to the rude behavior? >> i think this is always going

on. i would say technology might add to it, because there is so much more competition now, and technology makes it easier to compete against everyone and compete globally. these companies are facing new competitors in new ways and they have to move faster all the time and cut costs and if you're a manager who doesn't want to deal with this, it costs money and time to deal with this. >> and people, do they talk to one another anymore? because they're communicating with these now. >> yes. >> and being rude on those things. >> tweets. >> yes. >> emails. >> rude emails. >> although i would rather have them, you know, looking on the phone and checking videos than yelling at me in the office. on the other hand, if i say go post somewhere else instead of just yelling at me, i'll take that. >> what happened to the golden rule? >> yes. >> that's what i keep on my desk. do unto others. >> yes. >> vladmir duthiers, yes. >> you want to be my boss? >> yes, dan ross, thank you so much. >> a scary situation, and an

han sum commuted the sentence and said she should be finally released. tennessee has unusually harsh life sentences. so she was convicted of murder, but there are so many nuances to the story. she is a victim of sex trafficking and she was being sent out by a pump to be prostituted. she killed the man who she was with because she thought he was going to kill her. she pled that it was self-defense yet she was still sentenced to life in prison. she is going to be released. a lot of people have been hoping for thafrmts good outcome there. >> yeah. >> my story is the captain of a charter boat off north carolina's outer banks got a painful surprise when he tried to reel in a shark. it bit him in the leg. take a look. >> [ bleep ]! >> the lesson of this, as i shouldn't have to explain to you, sharks are just as

dangerous out of the water as they are in, if you are messing around with them. and in this case trying to catch one. it was a five-foot black tip shark that grabbed his calf as he was trying to bring him on board that boat. there were four guys in that boat trying to wrestle the shark on board, and the shark fought back. >> for sure. >> do you cut the line? is that probably k-- >> i suppose they could have. it's hard to see there exactly where the shark was when this happened. there is a five-minute video that was posted. this happened on the outer banks. >> i read that they poured clorox? how do you do that? >> and then he really screamed, yeah. then he really screamed. >> okay. another medical note. scientists announced a breakthrough. they were able to use a 3d bio printer to build parts of a human heart. the technique one day could lead to creating entire organs. this is really big because the teak niek, which was described

in the journal of science thursday, replicates the body's own complex biological scaffold, as they call them. it provides the structure and bio chemical signaling organs that need to function. it's been tough to replicate. again this is a baby step towards perhaps creating an entire heart that could be used in a human. of course, human trials would need to take over. >> another one of those really encouraging medical developments. >> sure. the movie the farewell is getting praise for the touching portrait of a family. it tells the story of family members coping with the news their grandmother has terminal cancer. they decide not to tell her and to stage a wedding in china as an excuse to visit and say good-bye. awkwafina plays billi, her granddaughter, wiho struggles with keeping the secret. >> i need to see her. >> you can't do that. she doesn't know.

the family thinks it's better not to tell her, so you can't say anything. >> i don't understand. she doesn't have a lot of time left. she should know, right? >> there is nothing they can do. so everyone decided it's better not to tell her. >> why is that better? chinese people have a saying. when people get cancer, they die. it's not the cancer that kills them. it's the fear. >> the movie was the break out hit of the sundance film festival this year, earning the writer/director lulu wrong the vanguard award. it's based on her own story. lulu joins us. congratulations. >> thank you. >> i saw this ain an absolutely packed theater. i have to admit even here in new york i was stunned that an audience sat still for a film that was primarily subtitled. they reacted and laughed at

everything. it's amazing how people are responding to this. >> thank you. yeah, it's pretty surreal. >> this started because of something that actually happened to you? >> yes. an actually that happened in my family. my mother called to tell me my grandmother was diagnosed with terminal cancer and we weren't going it tell her. if we wanted to go back to see her, it was under the ruse of a wedding for my cousin. >> i am not going to give away the end of this story, but your grandmother is still living and she still doesn't know? that's got to be a tough secret to keep with a movie coming out. >> yeah. >> one of the themes that i found really fascinating in the film is the idea of the collective good. that's something that you sort of drive home. awkwafina sort of, i guess, standing in for you raised in america. has a sensibility of the way we operate here in the united states, which we don't ever imagine we would keep something like that from somebody.

but at one point a character says, look, we are mourning for that person who is afflicted with a horrible terminal illness. we take on that pain. then the in the united states it's all about the individual. it's not like that in china? >> yeah, the film plays with the theme of clerkollectivism versu individuality. i think awkwafina's character, billi, as an american, she very much believes in truth and freedom as the most important values, and her chinese family says, well, are those really good values? it doesn't really serve the person that you are telling the truth it. if it doesn't serve the family. it's also the sense of duty that if she tells the grandmother the truth, she is not the person who is going to be around to deal with the results of that truth being told. so if the grandmother gets depressed and just stops eating and sleeping, she is not the person who actually has to deal with the consequences. the sister is the one who does.

she says, you know, i know my sister the best and this is what i believe is best for her. >> i love the relationship between the two sisters. >> yes. they are both terrific. >> they are really terrific. americans got to know awkwafina from her portrayal of the best friend in "crazy rich asians." why did you cast awkwafina as billi? she is a comedian. she is terrific. she is taking a really dark role here. >> yeah, well, when i first met with her i was surprised that she wanted to do this. i thought, you know, you are a rapper from queens. why did this resonate with you? and she said she was raised by her chinese grandmother, because her mother passed away when she was 4. you know, just really connected with the story, with the relationship between billi and her grandmother and said, you know, i got to do this. she sentannahtition tape in. when i saw it, i was blown away. i didn't know that she had that in her. >> she is really terrific. i am curious, when you brought the idea of this film to sort of

hollywood financiers, how they reacted to it. >> oh, they were like, take all the money. your chinese grandmother? subtitled? all-asian cast? where is my checkbook? no. that's not really how it went. >> they were interested at least, yes? >> they were interested in the premise. they felt like this ruse, this facade, it's kind of screwball, let's take that and run with it. let's go more screwball, broader, let's make this my big fat chinese wedding. >> but they wanted a white character in? >> that was a chinese investor. he said if we are going to bring this film to chinese audiences, the thing entertaining for them to watch is an american. i said billi is an american. they are like, no, like a white guy she brings home, doesn't understand the culture and we will laugh at the fact he can't use chopsticks. i was like, that's not the story. >> so glad you were able to hold

on to to your vision for this film because it's a beautiful film and a wonderful film for people trying to understand the way others around the world may think of tradition and duty and it's just really -- it's a universal film, too. i think everybody can see their own family in it. >> for sure. >> lulu wong, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> success with the film. the farewell is in theaters now. a pair of school brothers are making a big name for themselves in the baking business. uh-huh. ahead, how it is finally friday. we are starting off the day with clouds and fog along the coast and parts of the bay as we have most of the afternoon most of us will have sun shining clearing. daytime highs warmer compared to yesterday. 89 in concord, 82 san jose, 73 oakland and 66 san francisco. tums warm-up with high-pressure building and for saturday and
