7:04 am
we had a sneak preview of the cover of this week's charlie hebdo. predictably it is provocative. many conservative muslims believe any depiction of the mohammed is blasmm s. he is holding the banner that has become simable of charlie supporters. the survivors of the staff produced it in borrowed offices. the cartoonist who drew the cover, there are almost 15,000 extra police and military on duty in france guarding what the government calls sensitive sites while a huge manhunt is underway to track down what police believe are the terrorist accomplices. this morning france paid tribute to the three police officers who
7:05 am
were killed last week. all were awarded the nation's highest decorations, the legion of honor while france president offered what comfort he could. the merabet family appealed for calm. the men who killed him were not muslim terrorists they were terrorists pure and simple. we learn this morning a frenchman hold in bulgaria is linked to one of the kouachi brothers. officials believe she is now in syria. holly williams is in istanbul with the latest on that story.

7:07 am
alarms. police believe she was radicalized during her relationship withamedy coulibly. last thursdayamedy coulibly began his violent rampage shooting and killing a french police woman. on the same day turkish authorities say cell phone records show boumeddiene crossed into this border. hayat hayat boumeddiene slipped the fingers of the authorities. u.s. officials have told us it's normal to scale back surveillance of suspects if they are not considered important and they say that is always a difficult judgment call.
7:08 am
>> thanks. this morning officials say it was a mistake not to send a top level american official to sunday's unity rally in paris. critics blasted president obama for missing the rally. the french ambassador said there are no hard feelings. >> reporter: president obama never considered going to paris and the white house couldn't say if he watched any of the historic antiterrorism unity rally on television. the secret service told us it was never asked to put together a travel plan to paris for any senior white house official. >> it is fair to say we should have sent someone with a higher profile. >> reporter: the white house admitted when the world was watching it was missing in action. >> we want to send a clear message that american people stand shoulder to shoulder. sending a high level, highly visible senior administration official to that march would
7:09 am
have done that. >> reporter: from the president not a word about his absence from paris, tough tabloid headlines or scorching criticism on twitter but there were plenty of jokes about washington and sports, the first dealing with a recent decision to halt sales of a new kind of underwear. >> thank you for saving america from laced under garments. >> reporter: later unsolicited advice to the san antonio spurs. >> if you guys need tips on winning back-to-back you know where to find me. >> reporter: texas republican senator ted cruz called roll of missing officials. >> where was the secretary of state? the attorney general who was there. >> reporter: eric holder flew to paris to attend meetings but
7:10 am
skipped the march. secretary of state john kerry was in india but could not reach paris earlier than thursday. one reason kerry could not alter his travel plans was an unannounced visit to pakistan. one stop was visiting a school. that visit meant to under score solidarity with those terror victims had to be cancelled due to weather. an isis logo is still on the youtube page. hackers broke into the youtube and twitter accounts on monday posting threatening messages aimed at american troops and their families. >> reporter: after having two of the social media accounts turned into propaganda platforms for isis the central command has
7:11 am
restored the twitter account and trying to restore its youtube account. the more than 100,000 followers of the twitter account were suddenly presented with this image and a warning. american soldiers we are coming, watch your back isis. the group calling itself the cyber caliphate claimed it penetrated networks and know everything about you, your wives and children. at the same time youtube channel where videos are posted began showing isis propaganda videos. in both cases pentagon officials say commercials, social media sites, twitter and youtube were hacked. the hacks happened just as president obama was announcing plans for tightening cyber security.
7:12 am
>> if we are going to be connected then we need to be protected. >> reporter: the hacks which lasted about a half an hour included a link to an out of date roster stamped for official use only which gave names and e-mails up to and including joint chiefs chairman martin demp dempsey. central command said it plans to identify every officer whose personal information was compromised. central command called it a case of cyber vandalism which had no impact on military operations. the fbi has opened an investigation in an effort to determine who was behind the attacks. >> thank you. there are significant delays for commuters on washington, d.c.'s metro after smoke poured into subway cars. the smoke from an electrical fire killed one person

some of the crowd in columbus. after last night's game ohio state dominated oregon. what a game, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. it was a game that would not have happened if it were not for the new college football format. on monday the championship was proof the playoff system works. the oregon ducks and their record-setting offense got off to the perfect start as marcus mariota takes his team to a 7-0 lead just 2 1/2 minutes into the game. the buckeyes quickly responded with a score of their own. >> to the end zone! >> reporter: and then another. >> touchdown, ohio state. >> reporter: and then another. oregon wasn't able to capitalize on four ohio state turnovers.
