"the early show." great to have you with us. >> we'll get right to our top story and it's one that a lot of people are talking about this morning. robert joe halderman, a producer for the cbs news program "48 hours mystery" is out on bail after his a rapement on one count of first degree grand larceny. >> the revelation of the alleged plot forcing the late night host to admit to having sex with woman staffer, kelly wallace is here with the latest. >> reporter: more and more bizarre. good morning. friends and colleagues of joe halderman are in absolute shock over the allegations. allegations the veteran news producer who covered crime for "48 hours" stands accused of a crime that could land him up to 15 years behind barses. joe halderman looked sober and serious on in court on friday.

his only comment was when he entered a not guilty plea. his attorney says the 51-year-old father will vigorously fight accusation againsts him. >> thisser to is far more complicated than what you heard this afternoon. >> reporter: according to prosecutors, at 6:00 a.m. on september 9th halderman waited outside letter mann's manhattan home and left a package on the back seat of his car. in an enclosed letter halderman said he needed to make a large chunk of money. he allegedly threatened to write a screen play saying letterman's world is with b. to collapse around him if information about his private life is good opposed. halderman had had a relationship with a woman who worked for the late show host and there are reports he had to pay $6800 a month in child and spousal support. >> our concern here is extortion and that's what we're focusing on. >> reporter: prosecutors conducted a sting operation in which letterman's attorney wore

a wire and met with halderman at new york's essex house hotel on september 23rd and again september 30th. that's when the attorney gave halderman a phone mifoe any check for $2 million. the next day he allegedlies forred it and was later arrested outside his office. >> and the creepy stuff was that i have had sex with women who work for me on this show. >> reporter: the late night funny man made a remarkable personal admission thursday and said he'd have no more to say on the subject. in a statement, worldwide pants, the company which owns and produces letterman's show says letterer mann is not in violation of the company harass want policy since no one has raised a complaint against him. >> so now we'll take a look at what's next in the case. joining us los angeles, lisa

bloom. a couple of interesting things that we have definitely been talking about. the fact that he met with the attorney and also went to deposit a $2 million check from someone who would investigate these kinds of crimes. it seems that this would be kind of out of character for someone who would look at those things in a story. >> exactly. it's almost halfable. those of us who cover crime stories for a living often joke that we know how to commit the perfect crime. well if these allegations are true this defendant was way off base. and especially by asking for a check with his name on it that he then went and deposited? certainly cash might have been a better idea. an investigation great difference journalist goes for meetings lawyers apdoesn't think about the possibility that he might get taped? it's really astounding if these allegations are true how weak this extortion attempt really was. >> his attorney we should points out came out yesterday and said look there is so much more to this story, so much that you

don't know, a lot more evidence going to come out here. as an attorney if you're looking at had case what else do we need to see in terms of evidence for his attorney to prove that in fact this is not what really happened? >> i have been thinking about that question ever since yesterday when his attorney said that. given that there's this $2 million check that was given to him by letterman, that he deposited in the bank, the defense will have on come up with some plausible legal explanation. perhaps it's in exchange for selling a screen play, exchange for settling a claim. i'm only speculating, but it's hard to see out defense will explain that. the other possibility is some kind of diminished or insanity defense. but given that this is an emmy award winning producer a highly intelligent person he seems to have calculated the whole thing, it doesn't seem like that would fly either about. >> what about david letterman as we move forward? as kelly mentioned, he's not technically an employee of cbs. he's an employee of his company,

worldwide bands, which has said that he hasn't violated any policies. cbs is doing its own investigation. from what we know thus far in this case, could david letterman face any he legal charges? >> well, his company is correct that there is no sexual harassment case unless shall be brings a claim. and if nobody's brought a claim, then they're in the cheer. the problem for worldwide pants and letterman is that the facts have changed significantly in the last few days. it's quite possible that there are employees who were not a water that david letterman oig was engaged in sexual behavior with not just one but multiple staff members and under sexual harassment law, there is a claim for sexual harassment somebody can come forward and say the boss was sleeping with other employees, they got favors and advantageses that i didn't get. they got to appear on the show perhaps, for example. got additional payments for that. so this is why every company in the united states has a policy that an employer should not be having sexual relations with a

subordinate because it has the potential to create a hostile work environment. i want to emphasize here as far assenting adult, but there's always that issue. >> one of the many things we'll look at. thanks. and jeff glor standing by with this morning's other big story. it is wait up next time once again in chicago. the windy city's bid for the olympics was rejected. the oic chose rio de janeiro. sheila macvicar is in copenhagen with that story. >> reporter: good morning. well chicago began the day as the bookie's favorite to win that with president batting cleanup and then that shocking result chicago out in the first round with the fewest number of votes just 18. >> i have the honor to announce that the games of the xxxi

olympiad are awarded to the city of rio de janeiro. >> reporter: it was another president who celebrated and from rio's beaches to copenhagen streets, brazilians danced. chicago supporters disappointed. >> the president did you will all key and it waste a wasn't of his time. >> reporter: analysts say at least 25 dell ghats had not decided who they would vote for. >> i promise you this the city of chicago and the united states of america will make the world proud. >> reporter: some delegates said they were less than impressed that the president stayed just four hours and left before the voting even began. sources familiar with the thinking of the olympic committee told cbs news chicago focused too much on celebrity at the expense of the city. and delegates expected more from america's charismatic president. >> if you are are the striker

and you don't make the goal it means that you are a loser. >> reporter: rio made its strongest argument pay, that it was time for the olympic games to come to south america. >> you can play a great game and still not win. >> reporter: it's now brazil's challenge to host those games. they come with a hefty price tag of about $15 billion. the brazilians say they are ready and willing to pay. >> sheila thank you so much. joining us now is veteran republican political strategy guest ed rollins. good to see you. thanks for joining us early this morning. was this trip a mistake for the president? >> at the end of the day, it's a question of his priorities and he's got a lot on the plate right now. to a certain extent to take a day, fly away and have no result, i think the more significant thing is the chicago guys can't count votes very well. >> but he wasn't on the ground for that long and he can deal with other issues while he's on the plane.

>> it's still a question of setting priorities. you have editorials across the country she have been dealing with health care afghanistan. the president's time is the most valuable asset he has. he has a long term damaging thing, absolutely not. but was it good use of his time? i don't think so. >> we know he met with general mcchrystal on the ground. did that help his cause? >> it would have been more helpful if he'd have spent an hour with him mfd of 25 minutes doing a tour of air force one with his wife. i think the key they think here is mcchrystal is the key to his future. this is his hand picked general, afghanistan is the most important decision he will make however he goes with it and he need it is at that time time on do that. >> would it have caused him more problems if he hadn't gone given the fact that this is his hometown it's the u.s. bid? >> he's not mayor of chicago and he's not salesman in chief is he commander in chief. and i think if there was nothing else going on in august and he matt trip that would have been fine. right today, you have the final senate version of the health

care bill the iranian situation, unemployment numbers at record highs. it looked like he was off doing something he shouldn't have been doing. >> yesterday they said this was a stumble, no at fall. would you term it a fall some. >> no absolutely not. it rauzises questions about how well is this white house functioning and are they using his time properly. >> okay thanks for your time this morning. we will turn it over to hari sreenivasan who is in with a look at the news this morning. good to see you you. >> thank, jeff. good morning everyone. a chicago area man is under arrest for allegedly taking secret nude pictures of espn reporter erin andrews and posting them on the internet. they were taken through a modified door peep hole in hotel rooms in tennessee. the suspect michael barrett is expected to appear in court today. the death toll from last

and that is the way your weather is shaping up on this be loved saturday morning. >> thank you so much. coming up here a brand new "early show" segment we're very excited about. it's called early coffee. we'll see what's brewing with our very special first guest, sandy wild. >> and later, five of america's best wines. and the kicker? yes, you can afford them. also ahead, more on

the world could use a little more space csx. how tomorrow moves.

this morning on the saturday "early show," we're launching a brand new series we're calling "early coffee," a weekly chat

over morning coffee or in this case a special surprise. >> our first guest is sanford sandy wile. and our second guest is jacquelin, she graduated college with honorses and now works in the finance department of ge and she credits her success to mr. wile. it's not just coffee this morning because you xwra issuesly brought us some homemade side ercider. which is fantastic. >> and pastry. a feast here. you can come back any saturday morning. you co-founded almost 30 years ago the national academy foundation basically to support america's youth. you want to start in high school carry them through chenlg on to their professional success. have young people

for careers where american industries are still going, so we have academies now in engineering, information technology hospitality, tourism and financial services which was the thirst one and we're thinking about starting one in health care. and this is -- >> which we hear is one of the most demand. >> where is where the jobs are growing and lots of times we have as to go outside the united states to get it. and people -- we don't teach these courses in our school. young people really don't know that much about the opportunity and we try and create a program where we're teaching them with what's happening today and tomorrow. they get summer internships in companies where for six weeks it cost the company maybe $1500 to give a young person a summer internship. and they can learn in that little experience that education will be the key that unlocks the door to their financial future. >> and it's great that that starts in high school as well. >> jackie what ask it mean on

you? >> to to say it changed my life is apunderstatement. i'm the typical student. neither of my parents went to college. very poor neighborhood. dy have the big dreams and the talent but every time he said i wanted to do something, the answer was, well, no one else has done that and my summer internship at citigroup completely changed my life because i met people who not only told me, yes, you can do it, with you they showed me how to do it and i still keep in touch with. >> i know you said that a lot of people don't really know what he's like and you think he's one of the kindest men you've ever met. >> i really do think. i've had the plenty to spend time with him and his wife and to know how human he is and how much he cares about society and the good that he's doing. i think not a lot of people credit all the things's done for us. >> before we get to our special lightning round this morning, i do want to ask you, your comments on the economic situation right now where you think the country is and also

together. i think we're probably going to see six to nine months of good growth in the economy as companies start gearing back, everybody cut back way too much inventories wept down to nothing, so we're going to see that improve a little bit. but then i think it will be a question about how do we work out the problems that the consumers have how do we work out the problems with people that are still defaulting on their mortgages and how do we begin to get more people back to work. and that's still a work in progress that will take this some time. >> if you're looking back would you have made citigroup as big takes turned out to somebody. >> i think that there's a big

advantage in being big and being diversified. you you can do more for the consumers that do business with you and more different products. you can do more for companies all around the world. citigroup has the advantage of being in emerging markets all over the world. they've been there for over 100 years in a lot of he's continent continents like asia or latin america. you complaint recreate that in a year or five years or ten years. so i think the problem that citigroup had was how they managed the company more than the model of the company. i think the model is a good one. >> all right, well, we'll move on to our lightning round now. this is going to be part of our early coffee. usual the guinea pig. you can give us a one word answer. so here we go. if could you have coffee with anybody, who would it be? >> you. >> wow. >> fantastic answer. >> your ideal breakfast. >> egg white only let. >> what's on your e pod, what do

you listen to most? >> i don't have an e pod. >> what do you listen to for muz snik. >> i like to listen to classical mufdic at home. >> and if you hasn't gone into banking, what would you be doing for a live something. >> god knows. >> making cider perhaps. >> could be. >> great to have you both with us. thanks for coming in. just ahead, we're taking you under the radar. you'll meet the daredevil dog who really prefer as bird's eye view. you're watching "the early show" on cbs.

flu is now widespread across the united states. on tuesday, 600,000 doses of the vaccine, though will become available. up to 7 million more by the end of the week. but is it safe, will it be enough, and will it be here in time to help? joining us this morning from washington to answer those questions, dr. fauci. good to have you with us. let's talk initially about the 600,000 doses coming out on tuesday. this is actually the nasal version of the vaccine which can't be used by kids understand two, condition be used by pregnant women and those are two of the five groups most at risk. so who is this vaccine aimed at? >>le it be aimed at the people who fall within the group namely people from 2 to 49 years old, but it's really the first of a lot of installments. it will start rolling in very soon. there after several million available by the end of the week and hen by mid october, we'll have about 40 million doses

including the injectle. so this so this is just the first wave. >> i can say from personal experience i called my son's pediatrician on thursday i said i want to make an appointment for the vak seen. he said we can't do that. we have no idea when we're going to get it we don't know how much we're going to get. and this is some n. thein the middle of new york city. so can we really be comfortable that it is going to be available? >> they will be coming in in a regular fashion. we can't guarantee that any particular site will have it at the time that you want it, but in general, they'll get evenly distributed. the cdc has a contractor for distribute it. they have 90,000 sites. so i think for the most part it will work well. >> and do you believe the vaccine is safe some. >> it really is. this is not a knewnew vaccine.

we have experienced now for decades with seasonal flu vaccine made by the same manufacturers manufacturers, exactly the same, a strain shift from one year to the other. so just like the seasonal flu vaccines change a little bit from year to year, the track record of that has a very very good safety track record. >> so based on that you're confident with it. there's been so much talk about pregnant women who do have weakened immune systems. 28 have now died of swine flu or kmp complications thereof. why are they vulnerable? >> when you get pregnant, some on the to not reject the fetus because the fetus is part father, part mother that inned order to not have the body reject the fee it tuesday, mother nature suppresses the body's ability to fight against outside invaders including unfortunately microbes and viruses. so while the woman is protecting the baby in the womb but not

able to fight infection. particularly in the third trimester, the lung function is very difficult. it it it is not easy to expand and contract the lungs. >> before we let you go the public is pretty skeptical still. i know you're confident, not everyone is. 34% of adults say they plan on get the vaccine. just 34%. and only 35% of parts say they will get their kids vaccinated. what is the biggest myth out there about the swine flu and swine flu vaccine that you want to disspell to maybe change minds of some of these people? >> wlefhat people need to understand, that risk of the vaccine is extraordinary low. and what we're seeing this h 1 n nchltn 1, it has a propensity to ineffect quunkin

effect younger individuals. and the rare cases are swayed much more towards young people unlike the typical seasonal flu where the vast majority of people who get into trouble are the elderly. this particular flu seems to be striking young people. and when there's a serious side effect or hospitalization, item usually among young people. >> some great information as always. doctor fauci, thanks for taking some time for us. for administermore just logon to our partner in health, webmd.com and search for h1n1. let's lighten things up a little bit. a nice light white over there? >> we're drinking this morning is what we're doing. we have coming up here grape expectations. wrote that one all night long. five of america's award winning and most affordable wines. some some great wines that are not that expensive. stick around.

david letter man's dramatic

disclosure. some call it the perfect tv apology, but is it must have to make it all go away? what's next in the extortion case and in letter man's career. blame it on rio. chicagoans get on with their lives and now the president gets on with his and deals with other issues like health care. and afghanistan. the billion dollar man. tiger woods hits an incredible milestone. will his numbers ever be beaten? and back from hundred acre wood. winnie-the-pooh returns delighting children, parmt, families, and, soersof course, tig er tigger, too. all that and more this saturday morning, october 3rd, 2009. welcome to "the early show." it is a beautiful saturday morning. i'm erica hill also of cnn's ac

360. >> and i'm jeff glor. by now you've probably heard about the stunning case of david letterman letterman. something really shocked all of us here. we'll be talking to a psychologist this morning, not the first situation where men have put themselves in a very difficult awkward situation. why men in positions of power might be doing this we'll take a look at that coming up. also on a much lighter note we have a fantastic chef coming up. i don't know if you're a fan of the beet but we have a master, he has three restaurants, top ten ithe world, he'll show us how to make a fantastic meal on a recession proof budget of $35. >> so we've had homemade apple cider, the best wines in america, now this is great food. >> this is why we get up early every saturday morning. it's worth it about. but we do want to get back

to our stopper to. a producer for cbs accused of trying to take down david letter han. kellry wallace joins us with the latest. >> reporter: joe halderman is free on $200,000 bail this morning, but his troubles may be just beginning. prosecutors say the evidence is compelling and shows halderman is a december rat man who tried to blackmail david letter man. halderman's attorney says there is another story that is far more complicated. joe halderman, a 27 year news veteran, is used to chasing individuals accused of crimes not being the one chased. he didn't comment outside court and his only comment inside was when he entered a thoughtnot guilty plea. >> there is another side to the story. i'm not telling it today. >> reporter: prosecutors told

plenty. that on september 9th halderman left a letter for letterman saying he needed to make a large chunk of money. and that he also left a proposal for a screen play detailing letterman's sexual relationships with female staffers and saying letterman's world is about to collapse around him. halderman had had a relationship with a woman who worked for the late show host. thursday night, the late night funny man made a remarkable admission. >> i have had sex with women who work for me on this show. >> reporter: according it prosecutors, during two sting operations on september 23rd and 30th letterman's attorney wore a wire and met with halderman at new york's essex house hotel. the attorney gave halderman a phony $2 million check during the last meeting, which he allegedly deposited the next day, the day he was arrested. >> my concern is extortion and

that's what we're focusing on. >> reporter: halderman reported lir ly had to pay $6800 a month in child and spousal support, but prosecutors wouldn't say if financial problem were a possible motive. so what does allletterman's image and career some joining us now belinda and a cripple defense attorney. mekky, i want to start out with you because this is just fast nature to go me. halderman's attorney came out and said you have not heard the whole story. there's so much more here. but he wept to cash that $2 million check. we're learning that so many other details. if you're his lawyer defending him, what else do you need to prove that in fact he was not trying to extort $2 million from david letterman? >> there must be something programs in that package claiming this will be shall documentary, something like

that. his slaur one of the best if not the best in new york city so he's got on to have something am new mission wise. and letter letterman didn't hide behind lawyers and broke the story himself. >> one other thing i want it bring up while we're talking about the defendant is we're learning more and more about a woman who is now his ex-girlfriend who was allegedly involved with david letterman at one point. is she going to be the key witness here? >> i don't think so. the key witness have the videotape they have and the check given to him and deposited in the bank. they've chronicled this the best you probably can. >> you can overcome that as a defense attorney? >> you're certainly coming from behind the eight ball but if anybody can do it, jerry can. or at least make a palatable deal. s it's not a crime violence, but clearly a little bit deranged.

>> when with you look at what's mix for david letterman it's not the first time he's been targeted but we don't tend to hear about to jay leno and conan o'brien. what makes him a target? >> i think he's always been just a little weirder he's always had that strong streak of self loathing so in that case that really helps him. did we want the mental image of david letterman chasing his assistants around his desk? i think not. but it doesn't hurt him as much as perhaps upright morally fibrous members of the media. so i don't think this actually hurts his image that much. >> there's been so much discussion how he's going to handle upcoming sex scandals because this is prime fodder for late night hosts. jay leno weighed in a little bit last night, conan o'brien. let's take a quick look.

>> if you came here tonight for sex with a talk show host you've got the wrong studio. >> man, i would hate to be on opposite letterman tonight with all that sex stuff going on. that's got to be tough. >> no comment. sgr >> moving forward with david letterman continue to joke about this suv? >> i think there's two ways he can go. he can take the route he took after he kind of bombed at the oscars and continue to make jokes about himself, which is a lot of material for him for a while, he was using that for quite some time. or he can go the other way. it's not just him involved. he has a son, i has a wife. >> and it's not bombing at the oscars. >> i don't think can he help himself. i think he is absolutely compelled to make jokes about things. it's just his nature. and people will be watching. it's a ratings boost. the question is how many other shoes will drop. are any women going to come forward who will say the negative things about him, that they were coerced or

intimidated, that there's a quid pro quo? that's the only really negative thing that will happen perhaps. >> it will be great if late night tv because you'll be tuning in to to letterman and conan o'brien to see what he's saying about let'ser man erletterman check, check leno. >> good to have both of you with us. much more to come out i'm sure. and hari sreenivasan standing by with another look at the rest of the morning's news. good morning. a chicago area man was arrested for putting secretly taped nude pictures of espn reporter erin andrews on the internet. the fbi says the pictures were taken through peep holes. michael barrett is due in court today. they're krelt brating this morning in rio and mourning in the windy city.

rio was chosen over clig for thehicago for the summer games. dean reynolds has the reaction. >> reporter: the words took six seconds to say. sxwrt city of chicago having obtained the least number of votes will not participate in the next round. >> reporter: but the words took another beat to register throughout the city. chicago was out. the first to go in the sweepstakes that was ultimately won by rio de janeiro. >> if you get second place that's something, but whun you get last plate, it's like sheesh. >> reporter: the rejection was all the more painful given that the president the first lady and even oprah winfrey had lobbied the international olympic committee on behalf of the wendity city. to no avail as it turned out. >> we thought we had a wonderful pid and we tried very hard. we feel like we did everything we can do to win. >> reporter: some here including elected officialses said chicago's rejection was due to anti-american sentiment and possibly mean spirited international poll tirks but

chicago's mayor, richard daily, said daly, said it's file for everyone to get on with their lives. the death toll in indonesia has climbed over 700 and is expected to go much higher. much of the port city of padang has been definite investigation stated. 59 least 20,000 homes and buildings were destroyed. thousands are missing. several nations are sending in supplies and financial aid. and items he beene it's been a long time since we heard anything new about winnie-the-pooh. but a new book suggests all is well with christopher robin and his friend. mark phillips has the latest chapter. >> reporter: officially it's known as ash down forest, but most of the world knows this place as the hundred acre wood. the place where a boy named christopher robin had adventures with a slow-witnessed bear named winnie-the-pooh. >> it's a very special place and pooh is one of the reasons for

it. >> reporter: it's been 80 years since a.a.miln wrote the pooh stories. the new book, the first authorized pooh sequel isn't out until monday, but here's a sneak preview. >> one moment there was a wind in the tree the krou of a bird then cat rumor, christopher robin is back. all right. >> reporter: in the new stories, chrisser to robin who was original hi based on his son, runs home from school to renew his friend ship with pooh piglet, the bouncing tigger and the depressive ayore. and the new author has added a new character. the pearl wearing lodi the otter. we wept to pooh sticks bridge immortalized in the house on pooh corner. this is where he actually in-

inventsed the game. it still draws visitors. the appeal of pooh and his animal pals goes far beyond this quaint little corner. that winnie-the-pooh is still the world's favorite bear is what the publishers of the new p on ooh stories are counting on. mark phillip, cbs news, london. it's about 13 after the hour. time for another check of the weather with ira. looks like it's almost sunny out there. >> how are you? it's awfully noisy because we have the nicest people on the plaza. the baby show is a two day event. tomorrow is international pickle day. and on monday night, the vikings are taking on the green bay packers. lovely people here. we'll talk a bit about our weather. rain is still anticipated for the eastern part of the nation although we're seeing patches of blue sky and sunshine here in manhattan. thunderstorms in the south. a lot of sunshine in america's middle. and rain moves in to to the

pacific northwest. ññ and that's your latest weather on a saturday. this morning up next here, the david letterman scandal, why do so many powerful men risk it all? a sigh. >> caller: guest has some interesting answers. you're watch willing "the early show" right here on cbs. some people don't like added sugar in their juice. so say hello to ocean spray 100% juice. and goodbye to added sugar. i thought we weren't adding any sugar. oh. okay, nobody use these cranberries over here.

david letterman has revealed

sexual relationshipses with women who work for him at his company, worldwide pants. a spokesperson for the company says the affairs all took place before letter er manletterman's marriage to his wife last march. the question is why do they risk it all? joining us there boston this morning is a sex educator who teaches psychology at columbia university and here in new york with us us is a relationship expert. thanks for joining us this morning. i'll start with you in boston. are you surprised by this? >> surprised by this? i'm surprised that we're talking about -- david letterman, right? i thought for a minute we were talking about jimmy kimmel. but david letter han oig having sexual relationships with people he works with is not a surprise at all. because the little bit that we have known is that letterman

has -- he met his wife through work. he met his girlfriends in the '80s at work. and now this new name is floating around of the women who he potentially was involved with at work. and we certainly saw her on the air flirting with him quite a bit. and him flirting with her. so, no it's really not surprising. it would be surprising if this does turn into a bigger scandal some terms of a sexual harassment scandal though. and. case it would also show his very poor judgment with having relationships with a subordinate. >> matt you've been open about the cheating that took place when you were married and what did to your marriage. first of all, why did you do it? >> i was young and immature and stupid. i didn't understand exactly what the reproceedeceed kupgss of my actions would be. but david letterman, it really doesn't affect him because he is

a celebrity. and the celebrity masks and protects him from who are things. and the way that he delivered -- came clean on what did he was basically genius. he told the public before the media could get a hold of the story and he did it in a comedic relief kind of way. and that's the letter hanneman -- letterman way. >> are who aremore powerful men are more likely to do things like this? >> sure, because they often feel insecure and they like that reassurance of the young attractive woman making them feel all 3u6r78ed up and feel like they really are in charge. also they might have a accepts of entitlement. but the situation with letterman is not some big sex scandal. is he not spirit zer havetzer with a

prostitute or jon cheating on his mate and eight children or whatever the scandal is. >> i think it's still adultery it's a horrible thing. >> he wasn't married at the time. he may have had a girlfriend, but we don't know the details of his situation. >> exactly, but i still think that the way that he behaves was -- you don't sleep with somebody that you're working with when you're a public figure. you're somebody that people look up to. >> it's certainly unethical if it was someone younger and if he helped her with her career in a way that he wasn't helping other young people at work. >> we could continue this discussion all morning long. final question. in 15 seconds does it make a difference a comedian versus a politician? >> yes. >> absolutely. you can get away with it and he used his -- he's a comedian. he made it acceptable in the public. >> thank you both this morning.
