college campuses erupting overnight as an epidemic of clown hoaxes cause the schools to go on lockdown. hundreds of students flood the streets in one college town. what police are saying this morning. manhunt, the search for armed men who robbed kim kardashian at gunpoint stealing millions in jewelry. new details about those terrifying moments as the reality star recovers back home. new questions about her security. good morning, everyone. we'll take a look at the eye of hurricane matthew. the storm bearing down on haiti, the strongest to hit the region in decades and it is expected to be absolutely devastating. >> that tiny country hit so hard in so many ways. let's take a look at the massive hurricane from space, more than 600 miles wide. matthew is moving slowly. could take it along our east

as we said florida and north carolina have already declared states of emergency in a lot of concerns along the east coast. hurricane prepare rooms already up and running and government officials are preparing for the worst. as you can imagine we have team coverage live in the storm zone but first let's start with ginger on where the storm is right now. ginger. >> robin, it is just on top of haiti. landfall within the next hour or so and now thisl haiti has had since 1963 when it makes landfall. as far as landfalling hurricanes go. i wanted to focus on where the compactness, where the hurricane winds are in haiti. so the hurricane force where you could get 74 to 145-mile-per-hour winds within that red cone. now, look at port-au-prince. still 120 miles away, you say, oh, good, that sounds like great news. it's not because the eastern

most of the rain. deadly rain, flash flooding, mudslides in places that already had 22 inches, the dominican republic could get another 20. eastern cuba, 20 plus inches. that type of rainfall with t topography inches, two inches can give you devastating effects. even cuba included there and i want to take you through the timing. east of it tuesday night so tonight and moves into the bahamas by wednesday. what happens after that, i'm going to show you the track and u.s. impacts in just moments. >> you have port-au-prince on the board there and we are going to go to linsey davis in the center of the storm in port-au-prince. good morning, linsey. >> reporter: good morning, robin. we can really feel the wind, the rain is starting to intensify. it is clear that hurricane matthew is slamming into haiti.

now making landfall. hurricane matthew is now tearing through the caribbean with life-threatening rain, wind and storm surge. thousands of people are bracing for one of the most powerful storms in almost a decade. winds reaching 145 miles per hour, potentially flattening parts of haiti, the poorest nation in the western hemisph hemisphere. we are experiencing strong gusts of win and people inub sandbags. there are fears this morning that all this rain could be catastrophic. 40 inches of rain is expected to fall in parts of the island. potentially triggering flash flooding and deadly mud slides. fears that entire villages will be washed away. the deadly category 4 hurricane is already taken at least four lives across the caribbean. the powerful hurricane is forcing major cruise ship

of matthew is still 100 miles or more east of port-au-prince. so that 40 inches of rain initially anticipated will now likely fall in the mountains. but, ten inches of rain is still very dangerous in port-au-prince where you have more than 50,000 people still living in tents after that earthquake in 2010. guys. >> so easy to wipe them away. l linsey, jamaica already hit and gio benitez is already there. good morning, gio. >> reporter: good morning to you, we are not entirely out of the wood, the clouds you're seeing are from 9 edges of hurricane matthew but jamaicans are look g ing at this with guad optimism. the flooding, we've had that. some of that localized. jamaica floods very easily and have had dangerous surf but right now it appears the island has fared well but jamaicans are

windows are boarded up. jamaicans are prepared for whatever comes their way but, guys, i got to tell you gentlemjamaic jamaicans all telomere they're all concerned about their friends in haiti. >> i imagine so. let's go back to ginger with the latest threat. hurricane matthew is posing to the u.s. and what is the timing? >> since we spoke this has taken on a more western track and so by thursday night, through sunday, we're talking u.s. impacts and that' w you to notice on this track right now. this is the official as of the nhc this morning, big high, big ridge in the atlantic ocean driving it farther west competing with that cold front. it stays a category 3 hurricane. that's extremely strong, guys. we haven't seen a lot like this. even if it hugs the coast impact along the florida coast up through south north carolina and certainly coastal georgia. now, that's again the next couple of days and put this

in coming farther west, the only good news i have for you, you guys, the east side of the storm is where the worst happens. that's where storm surge would happen or the heaviest rain happens and we would be on the west side. >> how far up the east coast could it reach? >> everybody talks about the gfs, the american and european model. they've come in great agreement as to when it hits south carolina and north carolina. we're good through the weekend. after that it change, in northeast or new england, you get very little effect. if you follow the gfs, you get considerable effect parts of maine, vermont, new hampshire. >> that far up. much more to learn. >> a lot to keep an eye on. we move on and get the latest from the race for the white house. 35 days until the final votes and hillary clinton getting a post-debate bounce, 5-point lead and donald trump is fighting back after that bombshell tax revelation. a massive loss that allowed him

abc's tom llamas is in farmville, virginia, where the vice presidential candidates debate tonight, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. trump tackled that head on praising his business choice, calling himself brilliant. hillary clinton said this is more proof that trump is part of the rigged system he claims to be running against. overnight, donald trump surpr surprising supporters in the nosebleed seats at a colorado rally. >> one young man got here, you won't believe this, at >> reporter: then inviting that super fan on stage who gave trump a germophobe, a massive bear hug. >> wow. boy, that was a hard hug. he's a strong guy. >> reporter: trump putting out all the stops to get his campaign back on track after that front page "the new york times" story revealed trump took a $916 million loss on his 1995 tax return, something which

income tax for nearly 20 years. >> i have legally used them to my benefit and to the benefit of my company, my investors and ply employees. i mean, honestly i have brilliantly used those laws. >> reporter: but hillary clinton campaigning in ohio where polls show trump is up saw it a different way. >> here's my question, what kind of genius loses a billion doll bounced back richer than ever used it as a tog point saying he can turn things around. >> i'm not fighting for me anymore. i'm fighting for you. fighting for you. with my knowledge, i knew that i would make a comeback without question. >> reporter: while trump refuses to release his tax returns, signing audit clinton hinting at another possible trump tax

getting it into the public eye. >> reporter: now the new york attorney general has been investigating the trump foundation and now has sent them a cease and desist letter to stop raising funds in new york. the a.g. claims the trump foundation never registered properly. the trump campaign says this is politically motivated because the attorney general is a democrat who is supporting hillary clinton. >> george. >> they have to produce documents by october 15th and the vice presidential debate and mike pence's preparations quite different than donald trump. >> he's been mock debates with scott walker playing the role of hillary clinton. he's also been looking at briefing books anticipate both those moves something that donald trump never did and trump's campaign manager saying that on the stage tonight we'll see a feisty mike pence. george. >> tom llamas, thanks very much. we'll get the latest on the

abc's cecilia vega is on the trail in pittsburgh and, cecilia, what is the clinton campaign hoping for from tim kaine tonight in the debate. >> reporter: in one sense his job is simple. right? he's got to not mess up the wave of momentum that hillary clinton has been riding in the wake of that last debate. on the other hand, though, his toughest job he has to debate two men. he has to make on mike pence and donald trump. tie mike pence to trump's policy and the heavily involved and intense studying going on and holding mock debates and the same person playing mike pence for tim kaine is the same who played bernie sanders in hillary clinton's mock debate, robin. tim kaine said he is feels the pressure tonight given clinton's performance in that last debate. >> is there one issue he's preparing to hit hardest on? >> reporter: well, you heard tom mention it. it's got to be taxes. you can imagine that he's going to hit hard on that front just like hillary clinton has been on

campaign trail. one source close to kaine telling me he knows how to throw a punch but does it with a smile. i also just found out these two men have never met before. the first time they will come face-to-face, robin, on that stage tonight. >> and a lot of people will be watching tonight, cecilia, thank you. all right, thanks to cecilia and let's turn to abc's jon karl with the breakdown on the new poll and what are they showing? >> there is no doubt hillary clinton has bounce. take a look at this new national poll from cnn. she has a five-point lead over donald trump and this very same poll before the debate, trump was up. and if you look at the states, you see that trump is down but he is not out. the state of ohio, this is the one real bright spot for donald trump. he leads hillary clinton in ohio by five points. the biggest factor not the debate but that gary johnson third party candidate was at 14

other states we have new polls in, michael, take a look at this. florida, hillary clinton up 3. north carolina, hillary clinton up 3. the state of pennsylvania, hillary clinton up 4. so it basically leaves us where we were before and that is if you look at our abc news race ratings, hillary clinton has the lead. even if she loses all of the toss-up states she still has 273 electoral votes, that is enough to win the presidency and i've got to say the big thing here, b trump is the state of florida. if he loses the state of florida it's hard to imagine how he gets the electoral votes to be elected president. >> thank you. let's talk to matthew dowd about it. we see the polls. hillary clinton solidifying her lead, 35 days to go. many states already voting. donald trump really needs a circuit breaker. >> yeah, this is a good news/bad news, mostly good for hillary clinton and the major change we saw was not a change among undecided but enthusiasm among

was give a five hour energy drink to her supporters, behind by nine points on enthusiasm, now even. that is also bad news. if she has a poor debate performance donald trump's enthusiasm advantage will reassert itself and still 70% are dissatisfy with the direction of the country and did nothing to change the perceptions of herself in that debate. >> his strongest argue. he can bring change. the tonight. 40% don't even know who they are. that might not change much tonight. tim kaine will talk about donald trump. mike pence is going to be talking about hillary clinton. >> yeah, they'll both be talking about the people they'll debate next week in this, 50 million will probably watch this and it can have some importance. in 2004 after george w. bush lost that first debate and cheney and edwards had a debate

like a m.s.a.s.h. unit and he h to say, you may not like donald trump but i'm here sitting in the white house. >> matthew dowd, thanks very much. the next debate on abc. martha raddatz is the co-moderator and i'll anchor our coverage tonight with matt dowd and our whole political team. that georgia father on trial for murder accused of intentionally leaving his son to die in t car. the jury hearing the prosecutor's opening statements on monday. now the defense is set to make its case. abc's steve osunsami has the story. >> reporter: prosecutors this morning are painting an you ugly picture of justin ross harris leaving his son to die in a hot suv on a summer day two years ago. >> there's no doubt the defendant is responsible for his son's death. messagingen 0 the morning of the

>> reporter: they question how he coo forget to drop the boy off especially after they had break nast minutes away from both the day care and his office where the boy died. 22-month-old cooper harris was trapped in a rear-facing car seat for more than seven hours. this surveillance video shows his father checking on the car in the middle of the day. police say while his son was dying outside, the married father was sexting with other women. >> the defendant's own i love my son and all but we both need escapes. >> reporter: harris is charged with murder and second degree child cruelty. he's pleading not guilty saying it was an accident. his ex-wife agrees he's innocent. her lawyer says the sexting doesn't make him a murderer. >> i never believed this shows motive but -- >> reporter: they saw him pull into the parking lot and say he looked genuinely upset.

what have i done? >> reporter: but prosecutors were saying that was for show. since the death of cooper in 2014 dozens of children have died in hot cars. it's become a national issue. defense attorneys give their opening statements, robin, this morning. >> i know you'll be there, steve, thank you. we go to amy with the other top stories including new tensions between the u.s. and vladimir putin. >> good morning. the u.s. broken off talking with russia over a cease-fire in syria. the state department increasingly frustrated aleppo. another hospital was destroyed monday. 400 civilians have been killed in just two weeks and in a sign of rising tensions moscow has now suspended a deal that regulates the disposal of nuclear weapons material. back here in this country a baltimore ravens football fan in critical condition after a brawl during sunday's game against the raiders. joseph bauer is on life support after police say a verbal fight with two raiders fans near the concession stand turned

to the ground and suffered a brain injury. the two raiders fans now face charges. there is new fallout from the phony account scandal at wells fargo and the state of illinois pulling $30 billion in investments from the bank following a similar move by california aimed at punishing the bank for opening accounts without customers' permission in order to meet sales goals so this story far from over. >> thanks very much. back to ginger. more on that hurricane. >> yes, i want to put on here the probabilities of getting really important for folks in coastal florida to watch, thursday through friday. 80% shot through miami right around melbourne. more than 39 miles per hour. it will change in the coming days and you know we'll be on

>> good morning, i'm meteorologist mike wankum, of course we'll be watching the potential impact from matthew this weekend around new england, but today, we start with gray skies, and a bit of drizzle but a hint of sunshine. not very warm. 60 degrees, and over the next three days we see temperatures warming up very nicely into the upper 60's, and we start to talk about the impact of thet another note. when you're looking at this path don't just look at the line but the cone because a 20-mile shift west or east will be a huge difference in what you see.

"outright lies," reports the lowell sun. charter schools "don't siphon off state dollars" from traditional schools, says the boston globe. in fact, public schools get more money. the truth is question 2 will give parents more choices and result in more funding for public education. please vote yes on question 2.

>> tuesday morning how does it look? a gray start out there, drizzle, and that could be with us this morning but as we head through the afternoon, notice the skies starting to clear away, especially to the north and west, and i think over the cape, it stays overcast today, and look for a high temperature about 6 degrees, not going to warm up today, lots of sunshine, wednesday through friday, and temperatures warming up into the 70s, and then we keep a close eye on what could happen with matthew, it may have some impact as question head towards the weekend especially on saturday and sunday, and following into the forecast. how are the roads? >> very busy out there. southbound jammed out of the kingsboro stretch into billerica. the connector is jammed up dealing with a crash on the scene right now. jamming things back up into lowell. now south side of town 95 northbound, tough ride this morning out of the attleboro stretch, and most of the way into canton, work crews we had at 495. >> we're back before the top of the hour.

welcome back to "gma." you are looking live at hurricane matthew. it is going to hit haiti this morning. category 4 storm stretches more than 600 miles. wind gusts up to 175 miles an hour. you see flooding there in jamaica. and here in the u.s. states of emergency are already been declared in north carolina and >> a slow-moving storm. also right now the vice presidential candidates are preparing to face off tonight in their first and only debate as a new poll out this morning shows hillary clinton with a slight lead after last week's showdown. out west a 3,000-acre wildfire is burning in colorado. nearly 2,000 residents forced to evacuate as the flames spread, destroy buildings, firefighters are battling the blaze.

and also this morning, a lot of people reacting to those reports of clown sightings. do you like clowns? >> i hate clowns. penny wise started it for me. >> keep your eyes open. all around. there from small towns to college campuses and saw that video. students at penn state hunting for one overnight but is it all a hoax? >> i'm telling you, people are calling in a lot of the crew members saying that their kids are calling. th this. >> my kids were asking about it all day yesterday. right now we'll get the latest on kim kardashian back home safe in the u.s. after that terrifying theft of millions of dollars worth of jewelry in paris. alex marquardt has new developments in the investigation. good morning, alex. >> reporter: good morning, george. that's right. this hotel where kim kardashian was staying is known as the no address hotel because of how discreet it is but many

indiscretions online that made they are such a target. this morning, french authorities on the hunt for the gang of thiefs that quickly turned kim kardashian's paris fashion week vacation into a nightmare. >> kim, how are you doing. >> reporter: she arrived back at home in new york monday afternoon with husband kanye west. this taken by tmz, the entrance under heavy guard by her own security as well as nypd. it started after 2 a.m. in paris snapchat from the exclusive apartment she's hendz rented fo week. the luxurious hotel featured in this 2014 episode of "keeping up with the kardashians." five masked men enter the building and two into her apartment. they tied her up, put plastic cable ties around her wrists and

she was hysterical but not screaming. she ran to a balcony where she screamed for help and called her bodyguard at a nearby club with her mother and sister. the thieves taking off with more than $10 million worth of jewelry including her $4.5 million ring, reportedly a gift from kanye west she showed off on instagram days ago. >> i'm sorry, family emergency, i have to stop the in new york who stopped his show. their children were reportedly with their father in new york. >> celebrity children have become almost as famous as their celebrity parents and for kim and kanye i think probably that priority is to make sure they are as secure and safe as possible because they have two children. >> reporter: this high-profile break-in, an embarrassment for paris and the no address hotel, the parisian home for a long

>> the security is done by the authorities so it's confidential, no name on the door. >> reporter: the social media queen now getting backlash for her online antics and paris playing saying it was the celebrity who was targeted with possessions that happen seen and noticed by social media and it was these goods that the attacker targeted. secret that a former member of kanye's security agrees with. >> you couldn't snapchatting you're home and what you have with us. a critical paradise that. >> reporter: the authorities said very little about this case and what little they have said has been very defensive. tourism this france has dropped off a cliff after all the major terror attacks and as one person told me this is the last thing that paris needs right now. >> no question about that. thanks very much. let's talk to brad garrett, now an abc news consultant. matt fiddes as well. high priority for paris.

guess is they knew the bodyguard was not in her apartment and now hugh to get in. the big key is control and they knew where the jewels were and they moved them. >> you said they knew the bodyguard was not in the apartment. does that imply someone inside the kardashian camp tipped them off. >> maybe or they do great surveillance and may have her phone hacked. all sorts of ways to find out if she was alone or not. the key with them, they know what's going on and control the scene. movement of the jewelry and would be willing to bet within hours the that jewelry was out of france. >> what's the breakdown here and what happened, matt? >> i wouldn't like to speculate. there's no new information coming out. it's very bizarre for me to get my head around after looking at the high-profile people for 20 years, how somebody of kim

worldwide in a capital like paris which is one of the biggest target risks for terrorist attacks in the world in the last 12 to 14 months that they've had three attacks there and to have a high-profile american there she would really be a target so i really do not understand, it's totally beyond anything i'm used to. i've never had any of my clients or celebrities star friends experienced anything of som gate or parachute landing in neverland and guards jumping on it. it's very odd. >> should there have been a bodyguard in the apartment with her at the time? >> absolutely. absolutely. to give you an idea how we did things with past clients i've worked with we had an adjoining room to the apartments or suites and bodyguards inside and as

cctv and link up to the police station and bodyguards outside. normally suv-type cars and that would be a process and we would sweep the bedrooms and make sure everything is in place and what concerns me too is, about five or six days ago i believe, there was a situation where she was approached and seemed to be just one bodyguard, this gentleman in question who said -- >> should have moreec place. okay, matt, thanks. >> should have been a wake-up call for him. >> final question, brad garrett. this jewelry is so high profile how could anyone even sell it. >> they're not going to sell it as is. they moved it into another country and they'll shave off or cut off or polish off any identifying like i.d. numbers and break it up. it's already in watches someplace in another jewelry store. >> brad garrett, thanks very much.

cc1 test message cc1 test message it is time for our big board and our team of insiders standing by live for more on this morning's top stories. dan abrams joining us at the table. we'll start with the provocative new reality series that shootings. a&e greenlighting "live pd" which gives you havers reali access and dan will be one of the hosts. >> i am. >> we heard from one of the executives and says this answers citizens' calls for clarity. there does seem to be a lack of trust. >> this is a huge topic we talked about many types which is this idea of body cams on police

idea. it's helpful to police and the people potentially being arrested. this is now a way to do it in realtime. no editing later on to see exactly what is happening as it's happening in numerous police departments around the country. that's only a good thing. >> it will air on delay because there's potential for disturning things to be scene but i have a two-part question. do the police departments have any input into what can be aired own what won't be aired and involved to agree to do this. >> on question one the answer is, no, the executive producers are longtime news people who you guys probably know, john zito making the calls on what goes on the air and the second thing is my understanding is that the police departments have been very receptive. why? they want people to see what they do every day. right? >> not just that news story about what happened. but they've been welcoming in

because they're joining them. they're effectively embedded with them as they work. but, look, it's going to catch all sorts of things because it's real and unedited. >> more good cops than bad. of course, they'll be on their best behavior if cameras are rolling. >> that's a great reason to have cameras. then if that's going to make the cops behave better i say more power to them. >> this is groundbreaking. i can't wait to see it. looking forward to it. >> k the jobs. >> he's got more than me. well, another lawsuit that's moving forward against johnson & johnson, a california woman alleging that talcum powder found in their baby powder contributed to her development of ovarian cancer and our board certified obgny dr. jen ashton is joining us live. cases similar that have resulted in $127 million in damages awarded but others were tossed

talcum powder to cancer. >> this is so controversial, michael. to be clear we're talking about asbestos-free talcum powder. some show there is a slight increase in association of ovarian cancer. most studies, the thinking is the data just is inconsistent and don't have the scientific support and most gyn cancer specialists feel if there is an increased risk it is slight and minimal but we err on the side of caution. control to control, then avoid using it. >> jen, you know people watch us and see something like this and they're concerned. how do you ease their concerns? >> well, when you talk about ovarian cancer which in my field is called the silent killer there are factors that up your risk and there are factors that reduce the risk. it's very important that all women know what the common sign answer symptoms are. pelvic pain or pressure. bloating or increase or change

if you have those for more than half the month, speak to your gynecologist. no screening test for it but there is a workup we do. >> so hard to detect, you're right. >> i want to bring you in. johnson & johnson said we are defending the safety of our baby powder because science, research, clinical evidence around the world continue to support the safety of cosmetic talc. why are these decisions so varied million in judgments toing in. >> right, because you're seeing, "a," a divide in the scientific community whether there is a link and second, legal matter. they still have to prove they knew or reasonably knew of the dwayne. that's a big challenge. two big issues leading to varying verdicts. >> thank you, both. tough one. now to a warning for fussy flyers. you know you've seen these videos like this one.

i've been sitting here since 8:00. >> passengers just losing it at airline employees because travel can be frustrating but could issuing a complaint get you tagged or even in extreme cases blacklisted? abc's david kerley is joining us with more on this. okay, we all fly here and i see dan like leaning. come on, this can't be true. >> it's true. oh, yeah, it is totally true tell you, it pays to be polite because you can get tagged. we talked to a travel industry expert. this is what he said about what happens. >> the airline employee or hotel employee could take a look at your reservation and change your seat assignment. they could change your room. they could do all sorts of things to make your life anywhere from unpleasant to a living hell.

when you're flying on that flight but could it on your frequent flier and you're tagged to are a while. >> i heard one time a guy was fussing and so he was nut in a metal seat and given a child's meal so got a peanut butter jelly sandwich. they have that power. >> yeah. >> hopefully it won't a long flight. i have a question, we all fly a lot as you said earlier, robin. has anyone ever thrown a little tantrum? >> i was upset about the one rs joke, it's a joke. it's a joke. it's a joke. >> hey, guys, this actually -- >> this actually worked both ways. i check into a hotel just last week. i answered a survey and said something positive. they said we'll upgrade you. both ways. >> jen, you want to weigh in. >> i threw a hissy connection when people put the handbags in the overhead instead of suitcases. >> lost luggage.

news. >> reporter: after 20 years -- >> roger ailes is resigning. >> reporter: but the accusations continue. >> this is outnumbered. i'm andrea tantaros and here with us -- >> reporter: like carlson fox news personality andrea tantaros is speaking out. naming the former ceo in a sexual harassment suit filed last month. >> the republican race for president -- >> reporter: but unlike carlson she claims the harassment was widespread. alleging fox news operates like a like cult. steeped in intimidation, indecency and misogyny. the fox news commentator alleging roger ailes would often ask her to twirl and show off her body in his office and would inappropriately pry about her personal life. in her lawsuit she allegations she refused his advances and was consequently demoted and told by network executives that she needed to let this go and that

>> does he feel he has a right to do this? >> reporter: fox, however, denies her allegations claiming she's seeking retaliation after her suspension from the channel after a dispute over her book "tied up in knots." fox filing in the first full response to the suit that she is not a vic, she is an opportunist. for "good morning america," rebecca jarvis, abc news, new york. >> and andrea tantaros and her now. welcome. you heard fox lawyers calling you there an opportunist and say your lawsuit is retaliation for being suspended over a book you published this year. what do you say to that. >> i had been complaining about sexual harassment and retaliation a year before the scandal broke out at knox fuss chapel, the first to complain. >> before gretchen carlson. >> before gretchen carlson and my complaints crescendoed about

when they got to a fever pitch, that's the point where all of a sudden they made up this pretext that i had violated a book contract and fox had approved my book. i had not violated any of the contractual guidelines so it's just made up to basically act as a smoke screen for their behavior. >> in your lawsuit it says that beginning in the summer of 2014 he experienced a nightmare of sexual harassment by roger ailes and others. roger ailes denies that. fox says the suit is falsehoods. what are you specifically alleging that ailes did? >> well, ailes sex wrally harassed me numerous times. i was walking to a taping once and just said simply hello to him and looked at me and said, we need to get you a tighter dress. and i responded, i think, you know, press forcefully but this was, amy, after numerous times of him insulting me, making degrading comments about personal relationships, about my

retail yags was even worse. >> you complained about him and said last year you say but in your book it's important 240 note i'd like to thank roger ailes for seeing in me the tour de force i've become. why did you publicly thank him in your book and then name him in your lawsuit now? >> you had to thank roger ailes or your book didn't get published and if you notice, it's the most carefully crafted nonthank you. i wrestled for hours with that thank you. >> fox has lawsuit among them 21st century fox made clear its commitment to providing a safe and degreeny nyed borkplace at fox news, you began there in 2010, a place you say was defined by a culture of sexism. how so? >> well, it was pervasive. i mean comments here and there that were made that you were expected to just ignore. and if you complained, you were punished for them. you know -- >> how? >> you would get your air time

i mean, i haven't even been allowed to participate in the election coverage as a 34ri8 analyst. i was demoted from a show i launched "the five" after i rebuffed roger ailes and had my book destroyed 12 hours before the launch. they could have said we have objections. my lawyer was in contact with them for weeks and they didn't do that. it was deliberately designed to hurt me and cause pain and that's what they did there. >> your lawyer s y deal to settle this lawsuit. >> that's right. >> roger ailes is out. he's gone. owe what do you want? >> well, first of all, the seven-figure lawsuit would have had me renoupsing my sexual harassment complaints, two, they wanted me to publicly admit lie basically to the public and say i violated my book contract which i didn't do. so i wasn't going to life and, three, they wanted to guarantee my internal silence which was never going to happen.

and we are back now with the latest research on joint surgery and recovery. studies say moving shortly after your operation could be the key to getting better faster. something i experienced firsthand. this is me jeurys 24 hours after having my entire right hip replaced in august. on my feet who have had joint replacement surgery, my doctors got me moving immediately. >> it is 4 hours after. >> look at that. >> in the past there was more bedrest prescribed to make sure that patient didn't damage anything reeled to surgery. what we've come to learn is that patients don't do as well when on bed rest so being horizontal is not a good position for us to be in. >> one recent study of patients who had knee replacement surgery found those who started rehab

fewer days of hospital stay with reduced pain and improved physical function including better balance, muscle strength and greater range of motion. marnie is a professional ice skater and coach and at 49 she was told like me she needed a hip replacement. all those years of jumps and twirls catching up with her and only three hours of surgery her doctors had her moving. >> i was taking baby steps then walking up stairs and they said, time for you to go home. r in. arni said getting her on her feet spurred her to get better faster. >> gave me more confident to be moving quickly. that in itself allays any fears i won't recover soon. >> it is clear, mobility is the key to recovery. >> it improves your cardiopulmonary and skeletal system functioning and addresses your immune system, so things

targeted with mobility as an intervention. >> and dr. jen is back with us now. dr. jen, as you saw, this worked really well for me, in fact, made my pain feel less for some reason but is that the case for everybody. >> so, it depends on someone's condition. preoperatively and what type of surgery. this is really is the mantra now for almost all of surgery in general, people recover faster if they're out o b sooner rather than later. >> people were horrified how quickly i was out. some said they're kicking you out. not true. >> it's not true but we have to think like a surgeon. we think of by organ system when we get someone back to baseline and start with the lungs. many people don't take deep breaths and can set you up for fever and pneumonia and when you go down the body to the intestines they are slowed down by a lot of pain medication.

lahr system blood clots can form in our legs when we're not walking around moving after surgery helps all of these issues and more. >> i can tell new my case, the surgeon had me up within, i think, it was hours. i want to say about three hours and i was not allowed to leave the hospital until i could walk up and down the hallway and climb stairs. i thought no way it's happening and the body is a pretty amazing thing. >> it is. but you shared something withe hospital. we have to remember hospitals run 24 hours a day. checking vital signs in four hours so people get more rest at home and more comfortable. >> and this is all great advice. more on this coming up. dr. jen, we thank you so much. coming up, molly shannon is
