good morning. weiner's woes. anthony weiner dumped from two dumped from two jobs on the same day his wife announces she's leaving him. the question now could this lead to a new investigation. double whmy. two big storms churning in the atlantic, both expected to intensify today. why she's opening up now, what she thinks about owen labrie's sentence and the cam she hopes will bring good from her

hollywood and the world paying tribute to the great gene wilder. his characters indelible, his natural charm unmatched. >> don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted. >> what happened? >> he lived we'll look back on the life, the legacy and the laughter today, tuesday, august 30th, 2016. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie. >> good morning, everybody. welcome to "today" on a tuesday morning. that line from "willy wonka" gets me every single time. >> i have three children and have probably seen "willy wonka and the

times. he's great. >> so much love and warmth for him. we will start this morning with politics and the personal. morni third sexting scandal. the ramifications reverberating throughout the political world as hillary clinton's closest aide, huma abedin huma abedin. we have two reports this morning and we will start with kristin welker. good morning. >> reporter: savannah, good morning to you today. the clinton campaign is grabbling. anthony weiner. hillary clinton and abedin are so close at one point she referred to her as a second daughter. this morning anthony weiner seen in this photo from daily mail.com on his own and out of work.

leave from new york one as the new york daily news says it will no longer publish his opinion columns. the news coming hours after huma abedin announced her split with wiener saying after long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, i have made the decision to separate from my husband. adding the two remain devoted to doing what is best for our son. it follows a new york post report that wiener sent messages to a woman online including a picture of wiener in his underwear laying instead to a toddler who the post says is his son. wiener saying he and the woman have been friends for some time insisting their conversations were always appropriate deleting his twitter account on monday. donald trump trying to capitalize on the news saying in a statement huma is making a very wise decision. i know anthony weiner well and she'll be far better off without him. trump also

have had access to classified information from his wife. clinton's campaign firing back at trump. we're not dignifying that with a response. the saga began in 2011 when a text sing scandal cost wiener his house seat. >> it is a shame. >> two years later his comeback bid for new york city mayor was derailed by more revelations of inappropriate behavior online as abedin stood by her husband. >> it took a lot of work and a whole lot of therapy to get to a place where i could forgive anthony. >> reporter: behind the scenes a documentary filmmaker captured her private pain. even as wiener told savannah he was a changed man. >> i think that with help of my wife, with help of professionals -- >> reporter: now it's abedin's turn to move

abedin's turn to move on. >> we reached out to weiner so far, and wiener. he returned here to manhattan once the story broke, and abedin continues in the hamptons. >> thank you. andrea mitchell joins us now with more on the fallout. how did this play out behind the scenes? >> behind the scenes what changed everything, despite their long troubled marriage, friends say this was coming for a long time, and what changed was the picture in the child, for the child to be included in an inappropriate message on line to this woman really broke it. yes, he was in the hamptons and they were trying to continue with this facade of a marriage.

with this facade of a marriage. she was devoted until the second episode and documentary which was devastating. they were hoping to at least get through the campaign through the election. but then it became untenable. >> deeply personal situation. it's a family situation. but she is also a top aide to hillary clinton. is there a political fallout that we can expect from this as well? >> of course there is. there are so many tensions involved. she is the most powerful figure political figure and personal figure in hillary clinton's circle. and there are people who fear her. there are people who respect and adore her. the inner circle certainly. there are criticisms this led to hillary clinton not getting other insights, not having press on the plane, not having press conferences they say those interviews are more controlled situations and the fact she needs to

this coming just as they're preparing for those debates. this is a problem. it resurrect all of those old conversations that some voters might be having especially swing voters. the those moms in superba. there's a lot of love and affection from huma. also a concern about the campaign. >> andrea mitchell, thank you very much. let's stay on politics and turn now to the mounting backlash against a top trump surrogate to tweeted a cartoon of hillary clinton in black face. he's now apologizing for that post but standing by his criticism of clinton and her outreach to black voters. hallie jackson joins us now with that part of the story. >> reporter: look at the timing of all of this. it's as donald trump is trying to deliver more hallie, good morning to all of you. >> he only has about 1% support from that group right now according to our latest poll. tho

closer look at the controversy surrounding one of his top surrogates, but first a warning about the tweeted cartoon. viewers may find it offensive. an apology from a top trump surrogate, pastor mark burns. >> the tweet was not designed to anger or stir the pot like it did. >> that tweet showing hillary clinton in black face, and now deleted, burns saying he is sorry live on campaign. >> the campaign is not making me do this. ns who leads the trump campaign's outreach to the african-american community. >> didn't you do the opposite of what donald trump says he's trying to do? >> the picture is designed to draw attention to the very fact that hillary clinton do pander to black people. she do pander. policies are

african-americans. >> burns a frequent presence at trump rallies where lately the gop nominee has been aiming his message at black voters. >> what the hell do you have to lose? >> but it's a message delivered in front of mostly white audiences. that will change this weekend when trump is set to visit detroit with dr. ben carson and speak at a predominantly black church. 2012 gop contender herman kaine campaigning with mike pence. >> we don't have a race relations issue in america. they do. >> reporter: and this morning we have a look at our new nbc news survey monkey online tracking poll numbers showing clinton's lead over trump has narrowed from eight points down to six in just the last week. and among registered independents who don't lean toward either party, trump is ki

clinton's lead from 12 points to 4. savannah? >> hallie jackson, thank you. let's turn to trouble brewing off the east coast. floridand facing the threat of really heavy rains and heavy winds. dylan is in for al this morning. what is going on. >> all of a sudden the tropics got extremely busy. hurricane gaston is out over the water, but tropical depression number eight and number nine. those are likely to become tropical systems later on today. number nine already produced rainfall over cuba, and we will see this most likely develop into a tropical storm today, and then by the time we get into thursday producing several inches of rain, and some areas, especially near tampa, could end up

rain that could lead to flash flooding. and we have tropical storm warnings on the outer banks of north carolina, and it's looking like it should produce rough surf and we could see one to three inches of rain and gusty winds and it's the storm in florida that could bring us the biggest flooding threat. the fbi is telling nbc news that russian hackers were behind two recent attempts. in one instant data from as many as 200,000 voter records were stolen in arizona, but in arizona the attempt was unsuccessful. the russian government may be trying to interfere with the u.s. presidential election. now to a dramatic rescue that was caught on camera, several motor errists jump into action to save a woman

car fully engulfed in flames. ca. a pileup on a highway in upstate new york. you can see a tractor-trailer plow into several vehicles. a white car on the left of your screen bursts into flames. several people rush over to try to pull the door open and free the driver. others attempt to put that fire out. eventually they break the passenger side window and pull the woman to safety. incredibly, she suffered only minor cuts and bruises. an investigation into the crash is now under way. some high drama in rhode island yesterday after a bucket truck overturned on a bridge leaving two workers dangling over the river below. look at that. the workers were in the bucket inspecting the bridge's underside when the truck fell over on its side. rescuers brought in another bucket truck and pulled workers to safety. there were no reports of any injuries and the cause of that accident is now under investigation. a public firestorm over the

skyrocketing price of epipens has led to mylan saying they will produce a generic version for half the price. tom costello is in washington with more on this. >> this may be both a pr move and financial move as mylan pharmaceuticals found itself in the bull's eye of controversy over what many believe is excessive company drug pricing over its epipen. mylan pharmaceuticals say it will offer a generic version. rather than 600, 300 for the generic. a 50% discount but not the common 90% discount with generics. the evidence, say critics, two moms in two different

keeps three epipens on hand for her son. >> two years ago my son had a reaction to watermelon. it was seconds that his throat started to close up. >> the price $600 each. meanwhile, in canada -- >> all dairy, peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, wheat and chicken. >> his family keeps six epipens on hand. the price at the pharmacy, $100 each. >> to me it doesn't make any sense for such a difference in price. >> it's one of those things that make me very happy to be canadian. >> they negotiate prices because there are drug plans so they buy in bulk and governments negotiate prices so they try to bring prices down. >> epinephrin has been around for years and cost just $3. the plastic auto injectors

last week mylan ceo heather bresch blamed it on middle man. >> our health care is in a crisis. no different than the mortgage financial crisis. this bubble is going to burst. >> mylan makes a billion dollars a year on epipens. this morning it says generic could be on the market in a couple months but consumer advocates say many anxious parents may avoid the generic and stay with the expensive brand that they trust. tributes are this morning tributes are pouring in for gene wilder. as nbc's joe fire explains, no matter what role he played, watching him work is as though

they snagged that golden ticket. >> entire courses would be built around gene wilder. >> from "blazing saddles" to young frankenstein, to the producers, he did some of his best work with mel brooks. he blessed me with his friendship. that magic extended to wilder's chemistry with the late richard pryor. >> i love him. >> one of his off camera loves, gilda wilder. ♪ ♪ no life i know ♪ >> more than any other role, he will be remembered most for

playing willy wonka. >> there was never any mr. president wilder, and must have been pretty. >> don't forget what happened to the man he suddenly got everything he always wanted. >> what happened? >> he was very happy. >> more so that the countless young children that would smile or call out to him, there's willy wonka would not have to expose reference illness. >> do you have a favorite movie? >>

you are going to say "blazing saddles." >> "young frankenstein." >> we talked about the tropical systems, and we have some flash flooding. there's a cold front moving in and it could trigger some storms, they are not severe, but could produce a lot of rain in a short period of time. your forecast is coming up in 30 seconds.

good morning. headed on out to the bus stops for the kids back in school, temperatures in the upper 60s and low 70s now, and it's going to be another hot day today. afternoon highs in the upper 80s to near 90 and tomorrow even warmer, up to 93 tomorrow and that should be the last of this particular heat wave. we will turn a little cooler just in time for the holiday weekend, and friday, turday and sunday and monday look great. >> and that's your latest forecast. >> dylan, thank you. the young woman at the center of the high profile prep school rain case comes forward and shares her story for the first time ever. >> a recent plot hatched in prison brings drew

asheville. discovery, inside and out. 7:30 on a tuesday morning. the 30th day of august, 2016. sun shining down on a nice crowd out on our plaza. we'll get outside in about half an hour and say hi to them. first, let's look at the headlines this morning. anthony weiner has lost two jobs and hillary clinton's top aide, huma abedin has left him. donald trump wasted no time getting a dig at the hillary clinton campaign and hillary clinton questioning her judgment. two big storms are brewing in the atlantic. both could become tropical storms later today. one expected to intensify wednesday making landfall in

up to a foot of rain in some areas. the otherould impact the carolina coast later this week. >> one of the best times of the year. the u.s. open kicked off in new york monday night with a performance from rock 'n' roll hall of famer fill collins and alison keys winning at 1:49 a.m. in the coming days here, novak djokovic and serena williams looking to dominate after disappointing showing at the olympics. when owen labrie went on trial for rape last year, the case attracted attention nationwide. by law, his accuser was shrouded in anonymity even while testifying. but today for the first time she's revealing her name and face and telling her story for the first time publicly. up until now this is how chessy

a voice disguised in court. >> i felt like i was frozen. >> this is the first time you've come out and said publicly what happened. >> yes. >> why did you want to do that? >> well, it's been two years now since the whole ordeal, and i feel ready to stand up and own what happened to me. i'm going to make sure that other girls, other boys, know that they can own it too and they don't have to be ashamed either. >> the story starts on the grounds of this beautiful campus in new hampshire. a school where her father, alex, had graduated and her older sister. it was just before graduation when she accepted a date with popular senior owen labrie. a date that she says went horribly wrong and ended with

trial ensued. she faced the defendant and testified for three days on the stand. >> although it was scary and although it was pretty difficult, i wouldn't be where i am today without having been able to speak up for myself during that time. >> what was it like to go through the court process? >> we had been prepared to just receive an apology. we had been prepared to just move forward with our lives and let them move forward with their lives. in the pursuit of justice, i would have done anything. >> one of the things that came out in the trial was that there were messages afterwards and they were friendly messages. >> that brings me to the effects of the crime itself, too, which not a lot of people talk about. a question that i was asked on the stand is, well, why were you so hazy during that period. i looked at the defense attorney

raped. i was just trying to go smoothly and not cause any waves. >> on one hand he was convicted of misdemeanor sexual assault, which means the jury believed that a sexual assault took place. on the other hand, there was a more serious charge that he was not convicted of. how did you feel about the verdict in this case? >> well, they said that they didn't believe that he did it knowingly. that frustrated me a lot. he definitely did do it knowingly. the fact that he was still able to pool the wool over a group of people's eyes bothered me a lot and just disgusted me in some way. >> what do you hope happens to him now? do you ever think about that? >> i don't. i hope he learns. i hope he gets help. that's all i

sort of process like this. if he doesn't learn, he'll do it to another woman. >> she was adamant about returning to st. paul school. what happened when you went back to school. >> everybody knew. none of my old friends that were boys would talk to me. they didn't even look me in the eyes. they were uncomfortable or what. i don't know. and nobody was talking about the issue in itself. they weren't trying to prevent it from happening to anyone else. >> chessy eventually left st. paul's and they filed a civil suit against the school saying it failed to meet its most basic obligation to protect children entrusted to its care. we talked with chessy's family as well. the school obviously denies the allegation in the lawsuit. some will say, oh, a lawsuit. is the family trying to get money. what's the real motive here? why not just let it go? >> we're

we kneel an obligation that this not happen to any future kids at the school. >> you think the campus would say we need to talk about what's happened. we didn't see that happening. and if ever there was a family to work with, it would have been our family. we loved the school. my husband had a great experience there. our oldest daughter had a great experience there. unfortunately it seems like the school's reputation became more important rather than supporting our daughter. >> st. paul says we catego categorically deny there ever existed at the school a culture of tradition of sexual assault. you have an idea of how you can take something terrible that happened to yound

something good for others. what are you hoping to accomplish? >> we have been talking a lot about a woman's bill of rights. i want other people's input. i want other people to feel empowered and just strong enough to be able to say i have the right to my body. i have the right to say no. and i wanted to bring this initiative that would be a hashtag i have the right too and have people contribute to it. >> your family has been right there with you all along and a lot of people don't have that. i can only imagine how helpful that's been. >> somebody has got my back. somebody is going to believe me. somebody is going to help me. even when i get panic attacks and i lock myself in my closet because i don't want my little sister to see me like that. she comes into my room sometimes and she'll come into

when i'm rocking on the floor and punching my legs trying to get myself calmed down, and she'll try to give me the biggest hug and say, chessy, you're okay. chessy, you're okay. and it just -- i can't imagine how scary it is for other people to have to do this alone and i don't want anybody else to be alone anymore. i don't. >> to find out more about chessy prout's new campaign for survivors and her hashtag i have the right too go to today.com. you'll find the full response from st. paul's school including a list of changes the school has made since this happened. she is a very determined young woman. >> she's in another state and another school and applying to college this fall. >> amazing interview. thank you very much. let's get a check of the weather let's get a check of the

weather. dylan is in for al. >> we will see the warm temperatures we have been dealing with the last couple of days start to subside. we have a cold front dragging down cooler air, and the temperatures will run five to ten degrees above average, and 83 in chicago which is still above average for this time of year, and watch what happens as we get into the end of the week, especially by thursday and friday, and temperatures in the mid to upper 70s, and almost having that fall-like feel to the air with the low humidity, too, as we get into september, if you can believe it. and in the northeast, temperatures in burlington 72 by friday, and even washington, d.c. will go from lower 90s on wednesday down to lower 80s by friday. that's a look at the weather across the country, and now's here a peek out your window. >> sunshine on a tuesday morning, and a good-looking day today and no chance for rain today or tomorrow. the next chance for a few showers comes up on tda

shenandoah valley to the low and mid-70s around town, and upper 80s to near 90 degrees, and good weather for grilling out in the backyard tonight. and tomorrow, back up in the 90s, and cooler weather just in time for the long holiday weekend. >> that's your forecast. up next, the drew peterson case revisited. nearly ten years after the disappearance of his fourth wife a. new twist after these messages. see me. see me to know that psoriasis is just something that i have. i'm not contagious. see me to know that... ...i won't stop until i find what works. discover cosentyx, a different kind of medicine for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. proven to help the majority of people find clear or almost clear skin. 8 out of 10 people saw 75% skin clearance at 3 months. while the majority saw 90% clearance.

>> he's a psychopath. >> patronizing con man. >> he'll spend the rest of his life in prison and that's exactly where he belongs. >> it's been close to a decade since drew peterson, a suburban illinois police sergeant came into the national spotlight. after his 23-year-old fourth wife, stacy, went missing. >> drew, obviously murdered my sister. she didn't run off like he said. she's not at a beach. she would never leave her kids. >> volunteers joined in the extensive search while stacy's disappearance captivated a nation, so did the behavior of peterson. >> in october of 2007 when stacy peterson disappeared under suspicious circumstances and drew peterson did not exhibit innocent behavior. >> the missing person's case prompted investigators to revisi

peterson's second wife found dead in a bathtub years earlier. he spoke to matt lauer. >> can you look me straight in the eye and tell me you had nothing to do with the death of your third wife or the disappearance of your fourth wife? >> i can look you in the eye and said i had nothing to do with either of those instances. >> a second autopsy on katrihy showed evidence of a struggle and drew peterson was charged with murdering his third wife and soon after convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison. >> it's frustrating for him being in prison because he knows his trial wasn't fair. on the other hand, he makes the best of it he can. he's got books he's reading. he works out a lot and just tries to pass the time until hopefully can he get out. >> stacy peterson remains missing to this day. her case unsolved. body never found. will county

happened. >> he killed her to make her unavailable to testify in the trial. >> i know i'll find her. i won't stop until i do. >> just last month peterson, now 62, was back in court sentenced to an additional 40 years in a murder for hire plot to kill the prosecutor who put him behind bars. the plot uncovered in recorded prison conversations between peterson and an informant. >> so how long before you think you're going to get it done. >> it will be done by christmas. >> it would be a nice christmas present. >> if you say it's a green light, it's a go. >> i didn't conceive he would be foolish enough to hire someone to kill me. >> drew's biggest weakness is he should keep his mouth shut. shut up. there's an old saying in our

walks. >> drew peterson will be eligible for parole at 127 years owed. >> there's no competent evidence. whether you think he did it or not is different than if he was proven guilty. he was not proven guilty. >> for "today," blake mccoy, nbc news, chicago. >> both of peterson's convictions are under appeal. his defense attorney tells us he remains confident they have a solid case. as for peterson's children, they're being raised by his eldest son. the families say they are forbidden to see them and pray that one day they'll be united. coming up tomorrow on our series, the spotlight is on robert chambers. what led to the so-called preppie murder. just ahead for us this morning, "pop start." carson in the original room. the

>> what if you really want to go green and do you get penalized for that from energy companies? >> no. in fact you get deals for that from energy companies. if you put things in new insulation or if you put in energy saving appliances, sometimes they'll give you a deal for that. sometimes even just for going to an energy audit with your provider. >> one of the things you want to talk about is an expensive that a lot of people deal with every single month. that is wireless. it's a problem in our household, every household. >> the average wireless bill is $73 a month. a very big expense. one thing you can do is think about abandoning the big four. they do all of the advertising but there are companies that buy capacity from the big four like boost mobile and cricket wireless and they can cut your costs. >> if you're streaming a lot, you think i have to go with those big four. >> so they can reduce the spe

it's not going to affect the video streaming but it will affect the downloading of things like attachments. be very conscious of how you use it. >> when you see the bill, you want to crackdown on your kids. you say crackdown on data instead. >> there are plans that provide these services, verizon called family manager, where you're allowed to allocate from your pool of data so johnny knows he gets 6 gigabites and when they're gone, they're gone. i've used this with my kids. it's very effective. >> a lot of people are not good at going in and finding ways around high bills or fighting for themselves but you say there are resources available. >> you heard me countless times say pick up the phone every six months. call your provider. ask for a deal. the reason for this is plans change all the time. i just saved $10 on my bill and got four extra gigabites by doing nothing but pick up the phone.

these bill cutters will do this for you. they will charge you 50% of the money that they save you in the first year. >> real quickly. sneaky ways we're spending too much money each way. >> subscriptions. if you signed up for services in the past and you just don't remember that you've done it, these two services true bill and asktrim.com can go through your monthly statements and figure out for you where your subscriptions are and ask you if you want to cancel. >> i was looking over your shoulder because my wireless bandit just walked into the studio. i'm not going to call him out. find all of jean's advice on today.com. let's head over to carson. >> coming up next, sean "ditty combs" stops

out. definitely look for patchwork with your denim. the biggest trend when it comes to jean for fall. >> velvet. >> this can be any old velvet. it's back in a huge way. the reason velvet is back when you think of fall, you want to be able to touch it. it has a lush feeling to it. feels cozy. >> love this hat. >> you can also do it with tiny detail on the back of the shoe here. i love a pump. chokers are back in a big way from the 90'90s. see it has movement in the sleeve which gives it a '70s vibe. ties at the waist. and carry shoes forward into fall and they pair nicely with velvet. definitely pick up velvet for your style this fall. >> we have two more. >> micro pleats.

tucked in. all about the ankle boot with this length. very important for fall. and then last but not least, one of my favorite ways to update a denim jacket. show us the difference between a classic. your arms peek through. it has a drape and drama to it. it's the perfect update for fall in a solid and a broach on the color. >> coming up next, the more you grow. simple seasonal recipes straight from al's garden on the go. first, this is "today" on nbc.
