7:13 am
more than one country. >> how does that work? >> what do you mean? >> the information. >> the inform sngsainformation. >> how do you get information with american air strikes and coordinate what you're doing so they're not bombing syrian troops. >> through a third party. it's very clear their aim is to attack isis not the syrian army, and that's what's happened so far. >> the third party means iraq and who else? >> iraq and another country, russian officials. >> russian officials, iraqi officials. >> iraqi officials. >> communicate too you the american intention. >> exactly. the details that i just mentioned now. >> what's the level of that information? is it just about air strikes? is it about other activities on the ground that are taking

7:16 am
state because it has been wiped clean. he said no e-mails reside on the server or any backup systems associated with the server and he pointed out that all of her work-related e-mails as they have long argued have already been turned over to the state department. congressman trey gowdy who chairs that republican-led benghazi panel said he's now going to be consulting with republican leadership on their next steps here although he has long acknowledge thad he does not have the power to compel clinton to hand over her server. democrats call all of this a political charade designed to keep clinton in the news in a negative fashion and they say it's beyond time to just schedule a hearing for her to testify about benghazi about her e-mails as she has promised to do. gayle? >> thank you nancy. have you heard this morning the final four is all set. three top seeds and a seven seed will play for the ncaa men's basketball title. the surprise team is michigan

7:37 am
brother who he says he was under the influence of. but most important is what you found as the way this prosecution is ending last week and today is they're going through the autopsies of the three people who were killed. the jury was moved to tears. people had to look away couldn't look at the photos. the description of the injuries of victim number one was horrific, and i will guarantee you victim number three is going to be that little boy, martin richards. that will be today. >> that ends very strong. what are the chances you think he will take the starngsdnd, dzhokhar tsarnaev. >> he will not take the stand. >> what does he have to lose? >> he may in the penalty class. judy clark began in her opening by saying he did it. it was him. there's no point in prolongs that controversy. she wants to move on and do this at the penalty phase. when you say what does he have to lose, you ask the normal
7:38 am
person's question. you ask the viewers' question. if he says he did it why won't he testify. the reason he won't testify from the lawyer's point of view is he'll get devastated in cross-examination. it's going to be just something that the prosecutors are longing for. beyond that fact what if during the point of cross-examination, whether it's now or whether it's later, at some point he says i'd really like for you to put me to death, i want to join my brother in martyrdom. so if you're the defense lawyers, you do not want him on the witness stand. >> there was a poll last week that showed 27% of bostonians want him to be put to death. so that meaning an overwhelming majority don't want that. do you think that may -- you know that's judy clark's strategy, just to get him life in prison like she got the unabomber and others. at in 2015 is 57%. it's gone up into the 60th that
7:39 am

8:34 am
talk about this idea of the new lincoln concept car. >> you know as a company, we have a real commitment to lincoln as a luxury brand with experience to match. we laid out a plan. we have a lot of momentum. our sales were up last year more than the industry. they're up again this year. and at that plan we announced four cars in four years back in 2012. and the fourth car is a full-size sedan and we're introducing the lincoln continental concept which really signified for us the future. quiet luxury. it's around elegance effortless power and it's around an environmental that's serene and relaxing. almost a place to chill. >> i thought what was so interesting is luxury cars are a smaller part of your market but a bigger profit for the carmaker. >> it's so important to us strategically. you're exactly right. here in the u.s. it represents in any given month between 10% and 13% of the market. in places like china it's about
8:35 am
6% of the market. but it represents a third of the industry profits. so it's really important for us to be there. and we've done i think, a good job growing the ford brand over the last six seven years. so when our customers are ready, if and when they're ready to purchase a luxury car, we want to be there for him. >> she looks very pretty in the picture, i have to say, mark. i heard the chinese had a big influence. how so? >> first we designed a concept car for america and also china. we've been growing -- in america we've been here for many, many years wchl gentlemen uft introduced the lincoln brand to china last fall and every month it's exceeding our sales expectations. so we took the wanton needs from obviously u.s. consumers and chinese consumers. and interestingly, there's a lot more similarities than differences. one of the differences, though, is in china, this full-size luxury sedan, most people that own it that is correct i're chauffeured in it. so there we spend a lot of time on the back seat of the vehicle
8:36 am
and giving them amenities and this quiet luxury experience. >> let's talk about taking over as ceo of a giant automaker. what's the biggest challenge for you? where do you have to take this company? >> i think our biggest opportunity is to accelerate our one ford plant which we've had in place in the last six, seven years. we've been growing the business. a huge opportunity for us is around innovation and driving innovation in every part of our business and we strongly believe that the industry is at an inflection point with a lot of the technology that's available for us today. >> more than technology than being able to abscess the internet and all that. >> it's much more. for example, we're thinking of ous as a mobility company and auto company because we're looking at trends in the marketplace and societal trends and you look at the growth of mega cities. cities with ten or more vehicles. you look at the growth of the global middle class, which is expected to double in the next
8:37 am
15 years, and, of course the first thing you want to do is buy a car. so we want to provide mobility issues for consumers, some some of the society problems an also at the same time help complement our business. >> what does that mean mobility solutions. >> what does that mean? >> when you think about that ford's smart mobility is around using innovation and allowing us to take to next level things like autonomous vehicles mobility, card sharing, ride sharing, i thinks around the cold customer experience p. and we're actually conducting 25 experiments around the world to learn because our overall goal is to make mobility and etan muss vehicles and connect theed cars available to everybody like henry ford. >> it's so fascinating. >> after 15 years hue long will it take before the electric cars are a predominance of the car business? >> well, it will be a
8:38 am
percentage. obviously a lot of that is dependent on customer acceptance of the new technology the electrified technology. part of it is based on the cost of a gallon of gas. clearly our approach as a business at ford is to bribe what we call the power of choice. so we have the widest array of whether it's gas engines, hybrids, conventional hybrids, plug-in hybrids, or full battery electrical vehicles. i can't give you an exact figure. it will be part of the landscape but it would depend on a lot of factors. >> i would imagine you get a big kick out of the matt mcconaughey commercials. when you first heard him say it's not about hugging trees, did you think it was hilarious? >> i thought it was fantastic. we wanted to be differentiating.
8:39 am
we realize there are a lot of luxury brands out there. we're one of the smallest ones. >> have they made a big difference in sales? >> there's a new markets metric over how many times your commercial is spoofed. >> they got spoofed a lot which is incredible and fun. great to have you here. >> thank you, mark fields. go further. do you spend enough time with your kids -- that's their slogan -- jennifer is in studio 57. ahead, a new study why working moms can stop

differences. not in emotional well being, not in behaviors, not in academic performance. it didn't matter what. only a slight statistical difference in adolescents, meaning if mom spent more time, they wouldn't drink as much. >> so working moms, i think, who feel really guilty about this are having a giant sigh of relief. is one of the reminders that quality is more important than quantity? >> i think that's most certainly a reminder. if you don't read with your kid, watch tv, have dinner with your kid seems to make a material difference. can i point one thing out? i haven't been surprised about this. we only have worried about this question since women started working. since women started working we've been spending more time with our kids not less. >> why is that? >> i can tell you exactly why. you want to hear in the 1960s we spent less time with our children. here's the difference. in the '60s we wanted a perfect
