the final stretch of the clinton campaign is focusing on. let me take you through what the strategy probably is. what the clinton campaign is lookin at is basically if, if there is some sort of doom's day scenario where this fbi thing, there's a reaction that mov against her in the last week and if she starts losing all of the toss-up states on the map. and again, this is a huge if. there's a lot of reasons to think clinton can still pull out wins in a lot of these states. but if it all breaks against her in the toss-up states, you see wh t donald trump would then be one state away from the presidency, and so what the clinton campaign is thinking is let's prevent him from getting, if all else fails, that one state. so what are they doing? they're in michigan with ads, they're in colorado with ads, they are in new mexico with ads, they are in virginia with ads. their super pac is in wisconsin with ads. how about this, hillary clinton now on friday, she is going to be going into michigan. she is going to be going into detroit. they're going to try to get the african-american vote out in

the idea there is if everything else goes wrong, protect those blue states and you're still safe. >> and she has the resources to spend that money.> well, her closing message seems to be let's turn this back to donald trump. you heard her in peter's piece talking about staging an intervention. she's trying to make him unacceptable. all of her high water marks in this campaign has been when she is on the offense with a disqualifying comment from donald trump. he has given her all of her offensiv argumes, wther it

missuniverse, and she's trying to turn the attention bac to all of his disqualifying but i he he's also found very strong closing argument with obamacare and a change message. >> steve, let's talk about where trump is spending his money and his time. thels pol are showing a much closer race, so he loves the polls again. does it make sense where he's going? i think he's got three stops in florida today. >> florida today, although yesterday where was he? he was in one of those blue states we were talking about, he was in wi wisconsin is one of those states where if you have cast an early ballot you can actually go and change your vote. he's actually talking about that right now. actually i think one of the things i am looking for today, this whole question of a last-minute bluetate strategy for trump, we're goingget the gold standard poll out of the state of sconsin. it's going to come out early this afternoon. i am very curious to see since th fbi development, this is one ofhose state if we get a poll out of there today that says this thing is suddenly a dogfight, that's what the trump

is fearg. ?? >> he needs one of those states. >> yep. >> they will acknowledge that @ all of those blou states look really tough for th. the one where they feel the best, they're down two, and that would be new hampshire. so that would be e manmanna fro heaven if they're close or ahead. >> paul ryan did an interew and he was talking about casting his ballotar he said that he was supporting or he had supported the entire republican ticket andev name donald trump. it's like vi ggest story aft electn the y. should donald trump win or lose frankly. the spotlight wl be on paul orta relationship ay a very between pl ryan a donald trump. there ar a lot of republicans alread askingbo whether that e it m thaten h earshi aisle, for

knows ellen likes to scare her guests and jake fell victim to one of her pranks a few years ago. >> i like those characters because they're fun to play but i also think there's an opportunity for -- oh, my god. what the [ bleep ]! >> jake said it's hard to watch that clip back because he was actually terrified. well, this week he returned to ellen's show and spent ten minutes hiding out in the bathroom in his dressing room but he never even went in it because he knew something was up. so when ellen revealed herself, he told her, "i knew it!" >> jake gyllenhaal, 1, ellen a million. let's head to al in cleveland standing by with a couple of guests. al. >> that's right. in fact a superfan, if you will,

but she's always had this philosophy of being greedy for life and i think she exudes that and people are drawn to her. of course the love of baseball, people can resonate with that. >> and the indians. >> yeah. >> we'll have what you're having. whiz your birthday? >> may the 9th. >> we're going to put you on that smuckers jar for that 105th. >> okay. >> god bless, we love you. all right. let's show you what we've got a it's going to be spectacular. again, when we talk about the west, they need the rain in southern california. they're not getting it. they're getting it up in the pacific northwest where we may see a few inches of rain before it's all over and some mountain snows. we'll see some showers moving into northern california and there's another storm system coming in on saturday, so very active, but they can't get it where they need it further down south. that's what's going on around

four generations of family here all because of nana, god bless, we love her. all right, matt. oscar winner warren beatty is a hollywood legend and he's back in a very big way with his first movie in 15 years, writing, producing, directing and stars in "rules don't apply." he plays howard hughes, who helped make or break careers

>> these guys want to have a face-to-face meeting with me and then be able to say i'm crazy and then i'll have to give up control of twa to them. it's just -- >> well, maybe you'd teach them a lesson if you just gave it to them. >> then they could sue me for a whole lot of money and then they may come after my daddy's company, so i can't afford to let them make me a psychiatric case. i would leave this country and never come back. i'd leave this country and never come back. i'd leave this country and never time actually too. >> two more times. >> warren, it's great to see you. >> good to see you too. >> it really is. normally i would say welcome back to an actor like you, but i would generally say that to someone who kind of went off not by their own choosing, who fell into disfavor in hollywood. the opposite is true for you. you kind of went out of the public eye and you correct me if i'm wrong, because life was just too great to stop living.

>> the best thing that's ever happened to me was annette and having four kids. i like to joke that they are my four small eastern european countries. we negotiate. you know, i've never made a lot of movies. i always have kind of had something in the back of my mind, and then finally i guess i have to face facts and get around and do it. >> let me talk about this. right off the bat that this is not a bio pick. this is not a movie about howard hughes. how do you describe it? >> howard hughes, of course, is an important character in it but, no, it's not a bio pick at all. it's more about hollywood that i came to 10,000 years ago, 1958. and the movie themematically i

have to call american sexual puritanism that pervaded in the 1950s and then the rise of feminism and other factors started to kind of break loose. >> just to drive home the point, you said this to "the new york times." stop calling it a howard hughes movie, call it a movie about hollywood in 1958, old hollywood. warren beatty's hollywood. warren beatty's old hollywood or old warren beatty's hollywood. tell me about warren beat old hollywood. >> i think old warren beatty's hollywood, i was impressed and i was -- you know, i was kind of young. i got lucky. >> several times from what i heard. >> oh, no, don't go there. but i had a great director on the first movie i did, kazan. not only did i pick up a lot about directing, i picked up a

i went out there, i was very lucky to be kind of welcomed by some people that might seem from another time. >> so as a guy who's in the later part of his 70s, what do you want your role to be in the business now, in hollywood now, i don't mean in a movie role, in the larger community of hollywood? >> i always have an idea in the back of my mind, and i always try toid but i'm leading a very nice life with my marriage and my children. >> you can't talk about where you are in live now without talking about annette. this is the first time i think you direct her in a movie, is that true? >> it's the first time i've directed her, yeah. it's not the first time she's directed me. but yeah. >> what was it like? >> well, i think there's no

annette. you should see a movie that she made called "20th century women." she's very, very good. >> do you think in some ways, warren, your marriage, was it 25 years now? >> mm-hmm. >> do you think you surprised a lot of people in hollywood, that people expected it to go the way of some other high-profile hollywood marriages? >> it didn't really surprise me. i always felt that -- i wasn't trying to avoid marriage, i was trying to i had no doubt when i met annette that it was time to get married. >> what makes it work? what's made it work for 25 years? >> respect. >> i read somewhere where you said that it's hard enough for children to grow up with one famous parent. >> that's right. >> and you are two wildly famous parents.

known. so i completely respect their privacy. you know, i could go on and on and on and on talking about them, because they're brilliant and fun, but, no, i think it's -- you've got to give them a break and they have their privacy. >> i would imagine one of the great gifts you've ever given them is these past 15 years. >> well, it's a gift i hope they feel the same. >> let me just end by asking you a little bit -- you've always been someone who cared about politics in roles and in life. have you been following? >> here's my answer to that. it is three words. don't start me. >> don't make me wait 15 more years. please come back and see us. >> if you'll be here?

all right? it will be good for both of us. warren beatty, what a pleasure. "rules don't apply" hits theaters on november 23rd. get this, it's a joke, dr. oz, chef john best and gigi hadid walks into a bar. we're going to have a great segment. actually they're all separate. we're really looking forward to a big half hour coming up next after a check of your local

what greases the gears in washington? money. and ron johnson fits right in. six years ago, johnson took a shady $10 million corporate payout, went to washington, then voted to protect $21 billion in tax breaks for the world's biggest oil companies. $21 billion.

that's ron johnson. that's washington. and he fits right in. end citizens united is responsible for the content of this ad. good morning, everybody. it's 8:30. it's wednesday morning, the 2nd of november. we have a beautiful crowd out on our plaza. let's take a nice weather too. i love your coat, that's so cute. anyway, we're so psyched to be here. hi, charlie. >> this is a fun crowd. >> oh, my goodness. where's matt? >> i'm here. >> he only listens to you and olivia. >> i've got the treats, that's why.

we've teamed with dr. oz. we've commissioned a survey that shows 6 in 10 have not talked about prostate cancer screenings with their doctors. that is not a good thing. dr. oz is here hopefully to change those numbers. also coming up supermodel gigi hadid is here. if you haven't seen her on magazine covers and runway, maybe you've seen her on instagram because that girl owns it. >> she's so sweet and beautiful. feel like standing next to a supermodel right now. she's adorable. also coming up, we've got a thanksgiving match made in heaven in our kitchen. martha stewart and chef john are here teaming up for the ultimate feast. >> first let's send it back to al for a check of the weather in cleveland. hey, al. >> hey, guys, here at the winking lizard brew pub and having a great time, although these kids are not having any alcoholic beverages.

so they're all hopped up. let's show you what's going on. again, we're talking about if the game goes into late late innings tonight for game seven, we could see some showers. otherwise it's going to be a nice night. cloudy skies. oh, that was yesterday's forecast. anyway, we're looking at some showers and 70 degrees. now, for today record warmth through the southeast, gulf coast. we're looking at some stronger storms. those storms in illinois will make their way into ohio in th in fact tomorrow you can see wet weather in the northeast in new england. record highs down through the gulf. unseasonably mild through the plains and a flood threat with

if the indians win tonight, school -- no school for anybody. all right. official school day off. only kidding. much. now to our no shave today campaign. as the stubble continues to take hold here in studio 1a, we partnered up with dr. mehmet oz for a closer look at big health issues facing men. this morning we're focusing on prostate cancer and the debate over screening and treatments. take a look. >> hi, i'm clark howard. >> for nearly a decade, clark howard has been living with prostate cancer.

doctor and decided on using what's called active monitoring. that means that because his cancer is slow growing, he opted to monitor it closely rather than have surgery or radiation. the prostate is a walnut-sized reproductive gland found only in men. more than 180,000 american men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. more than 26,000 will die from the disease. besides a rectal exam by your doctor, historically the only screening for a prostate specific antigen test, usually known as a psa test. it's a simple blood test that measures a specific protein produced by the prostate. if the psa level is elevated, it could indicate the patient has prostate cancer. active director ben stiller recently credited a psa screening for saving his life. >> i learned that i was someone that had a case that could be treated. there are a lot of people that

late. >> in stiller's case, his doctor watched his psa level rise over a year and a half before sending him on for ultimate testing. ultimately he had surgery to remove the cancer and says he is now cancer-free, but treatments vary. a landmark study published in the "new england journal of medicine" followed more than 1600 men with diagnosed prostate cancer. the men fell into three groups, those who had surgery, those who had radiotherapy and those who actively monitored their after ten years, researchers found almost no difference in death rates between the groups. >> this study shows that there were serious side effects of treatment in terms of sexual, bowel and urinary function, but there were side effects on the men on active surveillance too, because the risk is the tumor will grow. >> for clark, active monitoring was the right choice. >> that i'm sitting there just watching it drives people crazy. but i think i'm crazy like a fox.

right thing to do. >> dr. oz joins us now live in the studio. good to see you. i was shocked by the numbers, over 180,000 cases will be diagnosed this year, 26,000 men will die of it. this needs attention. >> well, it's common cancer. men are confused. in our big sur va that we did together, we found that 54% of men don't know what a psa test is and 61% want the test. the c because people don't understand in the medical community how powerful this test is. >> so what's your recommendation, who should get the psa exam and at what age should they start? >> the reason the u.s. government and major medical groups don't get along on this is because people think you'll overtreat the psa. if you're thoughtful about it and don't get rushed into doing procedures on yourself, then middle-aged men it makes sense.

makes you at higher risk and you should think about it. here's the thing, most men think the psa test will tell you if you've got aggressive cancer or some type of cancer, not true. 75% of the time it's going to be a false positive. so don't get biopsied and aggressively treated because the psa doesn't tell you that. >> you're in a doctor's office. the doctor walks in and says, mr. lauer, i have bad news, you have a psa of x level, you have prostate cancer. what is the first thing you want men to do o >> let me blow your mind with this. this is the data set from the survey we did together. 79% of men think that if they have prostate cancer and don't have surgery, they will die. that is completely wrong. that is not what happens at all. in fact this is changing the paradigm of how we treat all cancers. most men with active surveillance don't pay a penalty. even lifetime change can make a difference so don't think of it as something that you have to get out of your body

more aggressively. men should have the information because it's power in their hands but do not get roped into getting biopsies and other invasive procedures. active monitoring is probably the better way to go. >> all right, doc, thanks very much. we appreciate it. coming up next, supermodel and social media sensation gigi hadid. but first, this is "today" on nbc. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. she's a slob. she ate like a pig. a person who's flat chested is very hard to be a 10. does she have a good body? no. does she have a fat [expletive]? absolutely. do you treat women with respect?

8:40 now. we're back with today's style. at just 21 years old, gigi hadid has already conquered fashion runways in new york, london, paris and milan. she starred in music videos and become the face of brands like versace and tommy hilfiger and has nearly 25 million followers on instagram. thanks to a new collaboration, she can add footwear designer to her resume. gigi, it's great to see you. >> thank you.

the "today" show. >> it is. and i'm such a big fan. i've watched it morning my whole life so it's great to be here. >> i was looking at some magazines and you're on the cover of every one. >> it looks like my mom's living room on this table. >> you've got vogue, bazaar and the "wall street journal." >> my dad was excited about that one. it's amazing. i get to work with the people i've looked up to my whole life. people a cover, but each one has so much experience and such a story behind where were shooting and who i was with. >> you and your mom had a five-year plan. when you started to model, you decided what you wanted to do. it seems like it came true in about a year. people call you that phrase that they use too often, i think, "it" girl. do you like it or hate it? >> obviously it's an honor to be called that. i think that something that i've just really paid attention to is

like to work with. i think that if you really touch someone on a personal level, they'll be the ones fighting for you the next day at a meeting or pushing for you in a campaign and that's something i try to stick to. >> you have probably learned by now that not everything written about you is true. she's still nice, responsible and respectful. is that true? >> i mean that's what i do me a conscious effort to do so i hope so. >> savannah walked up and said she's so nice, she really is. >> thank you. >> you hang out with some pretty cool people. what was halloween like? >> halloween was really cool. we were all working, so my friend had just a little like girls night at her house. >> just a flend general? >> taylor. we had like chips and guacamole and pizza. i had a really, really intense costume planned and then i was

shirt in japan at a vintage store and i made a costume out of it. >> that's cool. creative. i'm sure your instagram followers, 25 million, will love that picture. there's another picture that caught my eye. can i put a picture up ofou that was taken i believe yesterday in the streets of new york. so you're walking. you know from watching the show i am a germphobe. look at your coat dragging in the streets of new york. do you think what's in the et >> this will make you feel better. the coat came off the runway like already dirty, right, so it's long. so i got it as that piece. then i walked across the street for coffee. i only walked across the street. like that's literally the farthest i went all day yesterday. >> because there is not a dry cleaner in the world that is good enough to sanitize that jacket or coat. >> but it was already like dirty. so i either don't wear it or i just do wear it. >> let's talk good stuff. let's move on.

stuart whitesman, great shoe designer. you created these for all the right reasons. talk about it. >> yeah. i started with doing the stuart whitesman campaigns and i am a huge supported of pencils of promise. 2013 was my first gala. stuart has a partnership where he has made a financial commitment to building three schools, one in guatemala, one inha boots come in three colors and proceeds will be part of that fall 2016 commitment to building three schools. >> wow, that's called an "it" girl doing right by the term. >> thank you so much. >> what are you going to say to your 25 million instagram followers about your experience here this morning? >> that i love this show and i'm so excited that i'm on it. >> gigi hadid, it's great to have you here. thank you so much. up next, we're kicking off

>> be generous, it's thanksgiving. >> don't worry about it. >> this is so good. you put this in the pan on the rack, and then you put your turkey upside down on the bread. >> now why upside down? >> this way you're going to have a really moist breast without doing the -- oh, i have to try this too, without doing the more complicated cheesecloth method 101 that i'm famous for. i love that one too. but i make three or four >> savannah, you know what's funny? gigi is down here chowing down on this turkey. she said you know what i have to do after this? i have my fitting for the victoria's secret show. >> gigi, that's so funny. me too! >> a little bulge won't hurt. >> you might not want some of that oyster dressing. >> just a few seconds, we've got to see the upside down thing.

the bread. now, your oven is preheated to 425. put this right in. here, john -- >> you're a strapping young man. >> put that in and then bring me this turkey. this has been in for 45 minutes at 425. >> that's all? >> yep. and now we flip it. see, we flip it. it's a little hot. >> well, be careful. >> and then are we adding our jus here? >> and then we butter it a little bit more. >> i've got to get to john for his dressing. >> flip it, put a little more butter on the breast and put it back in the oven. make sure you pour some turkey stock. >> how long in the oven? >> another two hours. >> great. >> and this is what it looks like. >> it looks gorgeous.

good, right? >> juicy. >> okay, so oyster dressing. what you would call stuffing, up north we call it dressing. >> and you don't put it in the turkey? >> we're not putting it in the turkey, just serving this on the side. so you've got to start with a little bacon. so we have bacon rendering, onion, a little garlic. we call this the trinity of creole cooking. it's very simple, some green onions, onions, bell pepper. just a little bit of bacon. we'll just saute this up nicely like that and add in just a little bit of cayenne pepper, some garlic powder and some smoked paprika. >> so that's going to have a little kick to it. >> oh, it will, it will. >> great. >> so i will turn this off. this is an old family recipe. perfect to make ahead like a day or so. i love doing these dressings well in advance. this is everything that you see

minutes. >> what kind of bread are you using there? >> just like day old stale bread. >> like french bread? >> french bread is great, some of that ciabatta is wonderful. >> we're going to set that back there. and so you've got to have a little smoke in the kitchen. >> get to the oysters, everybody wants to know about that. >> nothing like martha stewart shucking oysters just take some of these oysters from either coast. i love these big southern oysters. toss that up with a little salt, a little parsley. >> how did you prep those oysters, just a little butter? >> no, just raw. fresh. >> what we want to do is pour that right into our casserole. >> i think that paprika -- >> that's really so good.

i just did. >> how did the baby like the paprika. how does it taste downstairs? >> just a little bit of green onion. you want to bake that 350 for about an hour. that's what we have here. serving it with martha's incredible upside down roast turkey. >> come to mama. okay, great. thank you so much. john besh, martha stewart, for these recipes. >> john, would you like a little? >> i want some of that turkey. >> recipe john is back tomorrow and will cook with kathie lee and hoda. taste testers, thumbs up, right? >> thumbs up.
