7:11 am
basically talking on his own or is this steve bannon speaking for president trump. >> that's the big question. we know he has encouraging phone calls from the president and you got the signature of state rex tillerson out over the weekend supporting that iran decision by the president that he opposed in private and trying to tamp down rumors about whether or not he called the president a moron. >> reporter: yeah, that was the big headline here in washington last week and days leading up to it but tillerson is not outright denying this, in fact, he's elie dodging the question. he's calling this petty washington stuff. but he was asked repeatedly did you say this, did you say this. 'not answering that despite denials from his spokeswoman over at the state department. the president says that he's got a great relationship with his secretary of state but the president also said he wishes he was tougher on north korea so there's some distance there. >> there certainly is. thanks very much. we turn to a major headline overseas. more than 300 people have been killed after what's being called the worst terror attack in the history of somalia. a father of three from

7:13 am
captors u.s. special forces were there for the handover. as bergdahl was gaining his freedoms the u.s. was releasing five taliban prisoners from guantanamo as part of a prisoner swap, a deal that became a highly politicized issue especially given that bergdahl had walked off his post without permission and that at least two soldiers were seriously injured during the search to find him. >> he is a traitor. a no good traitor. he should have been executed. >> reporter: now in his first on camera interview obtained exclusively by abc news bergdahl says the words of candidate trump would have made a fair trial impossible. >> may as well go back to kangaroo courts and lynch mobs, that got what they wanted. >> bing, boom, he's gone. >> reporter: the people who are to the point of saying, yeah, just shoot him, you can never convince those people to change their minds. >> does it

only to mysteriously go silent with no explanation and no contract offer made. kaepernick pointing to his refusal to stand during the national anthem last season as a way to protest racial injustice as the reason for his unemployment. a response he said at the time he anticipated. >> you're going to have that backlash for trying to fight for people. >> reporter: with more than three dozen quarterbacks signed since kaepernick hit free agency his lawyers now filing a grievance with the nfl for violating the league's collective bargaining agreement pointing out kaepernick is an ideal candidate with six seasons on the 49ers where he led his team to the super bowl. >> when you file a grievance through the collective bargaining process you're going to have your grievance aju adjudicated by an arbitrator and they'll have to defend their decisions not to hire kaepernick, it's going to come down to what evidence is produced during the discovery process. >> reporter: now the nfl has yet to comment but roger goodell pr
7:17 am
saying that hiring decisions are left up to individual teams. >> it's not going to be easy for kaepernick to prove collusion. >> no, it's really tough. you talk about he's got to prove either two teams or a few teams or a team in the nfl got together and tried to keep him from employment and he's got to prove that by clear and convincing evidence so he agot to produce something actual, e-mails, something in writing at this point and that's very difficult to do, i think. >> ryan, thanks very much. now let's go to ginger with the forecast for the fires out west. ginger. >> as great as it is, robin, to see some of those winds relax especially northern california, that high is in place, you still have offshore flow and that means hot and dry weather. at least for today in parts of tomorrow. look at the numbers. we're talking about near 90 for a high in napa. 95 san diego so not going to shift until we see the pattern change and that's going to come later week especially santa rosa and san francisco will cool down and maybe just a little bit of rain.

these changes will start rolling out in the next few weeks. we reached out to twitter but they say the tweets stand for themselves, george, no exact time line or specifics on the new rules have been announced yet. >> still hard to know if this is even feasible. if there's any way to regulate speech like that on twitter. >> reporter: twitter is really come of age, george. i mean they say millions more active users. they're citing double-digit percentage growth from last year. and think about it, from the tweeter in chief to realtime news on local events during disasters it's a really relevant place but your point is so acute. taming the hundreds of millions of users with artificial intelligence and employees trying to sort through abuse reports. good luck with that. >> well, we'll be watching. becky, thanks very much. >> at least got to give it a try. >> yeah. >> anything would help. no you to the stories behind some of the most famous photos you've seen of michelle obama.

8:17 am
which i learned from her is that you can be anything. how you grew up and your circumstances do not define you. so if you're willing to be fearless, if you're willing to push your own boundaries, i'm usually on the other side of the camera. this was a little nerve-racking to be able to come here and do this but i'm here. >> you were listening to mrs. obama. >> i was, all the time. >> reporter: for four years amanda traveled with mrs. obama to over 20 countries and countless cities capturing thousands of behind the scenes photos of the first lady. did you learn something about her? >> she has sump a serious role but then she also has this lightness about her. she really loves to laugh and, you know, some of the pictures like the one of her with bo and sunny laughing are moments that i feel are -- was my responsibility to share that with people because it definitely shows another side of her. >> now, didn't the president tweet this photo? >> yeah. >> for valentine's day. >> which was pretty cool. >> this candid moment now one of

8:19 am
white house and ignited a spark in them. >> how are you different from that first day you walked through the gates and the last day? >> everything about me is different. i found confidence. i learned about embracing my own story and the first lady wallace taught us that challenges you've encountered in your life are your strengths, they're not your weaknesses, they're the things that teach you resilience. if you're resilient you can overcome anything in life. i guess maybe really accepting all the sides of myself, that was transformational for me. and so i think coming out of the white house, it's -- i'm that light that i was chasing. >> i know. the light that she was chasing and amanda told us she learned the importance of paying it forward from the obamas and donating a portion of her proceeds to turn around arts, a program that brings arts into low performing schools. she said the obamas lit up the room whenever they participated in initiatives like in that you're seeing right here, turn around arts for let's move. it really is a

we can always talk about food. congratulations on everything. >> thank you. >> well deserved. >> thank you. >> this new movie that you have out, explain to people because it's very inspiring about a person, a woman who is blind but then gets her sight. >> yeah, she suffers an eye injury with a car accident when she was a young girl and loses her eyesight around the age of 12 then ends up getting a corneal transplant in her late 20s which you can do and the woman i was working with on the film, she was changing my contact lenses, she actually had this happen. so when i have the moment where i regain my sight after i have the surgery it was like i was playing to her, is this accurate? is this how you really felt and so it was just so nice to be able to have people around that, you know, could help us tell the story authentically. >> would you like to see a bit of it? >> yeah. come on. [ cheers and applause ]
8:32 am
>> jane. >> no, it's okay. we tried. hmm. [ cheers and applause ] >> that's a moment. [ applause ] >> i don't speak in the movie which is strange. >> but you don't have to. >> no, i do speak. i don't know why we have a clip where i don't speak but i do speak in the movie. not a silent film. >> that's the power of it. to have somebody there who could tell you what that moment really felt like and you were able to express that. >> yeah, because what happens often is your eye can reject the new cornea and so sometimes people start to lose their sight which is what
8:33 am
the movie a bit so it's a really emotional journey but for her she's in this beautiful loving marriage and met him what she was blind and once she gets her sight she realizes their marriage isn't exactly everything she thought it was so it's really, really fascinating. yeah. yeah. and i got to know the whole -- the set and everything with the blind contact lenses and i had lenses that would take away my sight. >> completely. >> completely. >> what was that like? >> it was really -- everything else is heightened when you don't have your sight to rely on. the hardest part is looking in the eyes of your co-star when you're having an emotional moment but you have to rely on each other emotionally when you don't have the eyes to rely on there is a greater connectivity so it was a really heavy -- i sang for the first time. i can't sing at all and played the guitar blind. it was just like -- oh, good. >> incredible experience. >> yeah, it was really incredible. >> blake, while we have you have i want to ask you about an avalanche of information coming out about harvey
8:34 am
the question is you're in the industry. how do you think hollywood moves on from this point? how do you think it can seize this moment and turn it into something positive? >> i think it's important that we acknowledge that this isn't just hollywood. this is so much so much more global and not just, oh, this is what is happening to women suddenly. it's been happening since the beginning of time but people are finally talking about it and that's what's important is that we're -- i never had experiences like this with harvey, that goes to show where, you know, you don't always see what's going on behind closed doors so i think when people come forward that your boss, you have to acknowledge it. there have been moments where i've come forward, others have come forward. it feels a little -- when your bosses tell you it's not a priority to them you think, okay, this must not be that big of a deal. maybe what i'm complaining about isn't that big of a deal and it is >> that's every single workplace. you have to know it's okay to talk abo
8:35 am
talking about it and supporting it. it's action. everybody says that they stand in solidarity but you have to show it. >> amen. [ applause ] yeah. >> your wonderful husband in the business as well. is it helpful that you're both in this business and can have conversations and -- >> in general, yeah, it's nice to have somebody who understands what you're doing especially because our job is so weird. we have to be married to other people and like it's all so strange. it's still -- it's never normal even when we're both doing it but it's helpful to know, oh, when you're acting like you're in a relationship with someone that's not what happening. i have friends married to those not in the business and you're not actually making love in that scene? i'm like, no, no, no. no, definitely not. no. so, yeah, those elements are helpful. >> his tweets about your daughters
8:36 am
>> luckily i lost my password to twitter a year and a half ago so i haven't been able to keep up. everybody is always asking about it. oh, my god, he said what? he's so funny. a lot of therapy. >> thanks for coming in. "all i see if you" is in theaters october 27th. let's go over to sara. [ cheers and applause ] >> thank you. it is time now for fall fashion with the powerhouse designer and our sponsor michael kors. he's showing us the must haves to stay stylish this season. welcome. >> happy to be here. >> so we went straight to an expert to get these answers so you have to help us. >> all right. it's simple. >> what kind of bag is going to really make a statement this fall? >> you know, this season i have to say you want to combine practicality and glamour. >> come on out here, hannah. >> come on out. >> she's got our mercer tote. don't be afraid of color. we all wear a lot of black so think about purple as a pop. i love a little rock 'n' roll
8:37 am
your closet. it's a great piece. >> can you go with any color when you say -- >> i love the pop of color with anything. don't be afraid. look how great blake looked in her yellow. pop of color with it. >> she's like a walking sunshine, though. thank you so much. hannah. what should you wear to keep warm but still stay stylish because sometimes the two are not -- they're mutually -- >> realistically isn't your coat your calling card. >> come on out here, emma. >> a lot of people think they've got to wear a black coat every day but you know what, think about a classic shape. this is a reefer coat. i love the idea she's wearing the rock 'n' roll tote but in black so balance things out. you know what, wearing black pop it with blue. wearing blue, go black. she's also got on these fabulous blue mirrored aviators. >> they're cute. >> which, i mean, why shouldn't you be looking at blue sky as head. we'll talk about also you'll raise money and help feed people
