fighting back. any weight loss supplement you think is safe and okay to take? >> not a single weight loss supplement on the market that is legal and has been shown to lead to weight loss in humans. you ever think if possible the strongest person you would know would be a little girl? >> i honestly didn't know what true strength was. i didn't think a 4 year old was going to come along and show me. alex rodriguez was greeted by cheers. he is off the juice now so probably just thought -- >> this morning's eye opener at 8:00 is presented by subway. i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah. duke reined supreme. the fifth championship in duke's history. the team overcame a deficit to
8:02 am
the wisconsin badgers. >> still walking on air after that game. the celebration began on the court. players joined coach mike krzyzewski in cutting down the net. freshman pious jones scored 23 points named final four's most outstanding player. >> they believed in me and trusted me all year. there has never been a moment where they doubt me. they trusted me to make a play and that's the biggest thing about this team is we never want to let one another down. >> they did not last night. jones said he texted coach k last year and said that would not happen again. >> jones could be one of duke's so-called one and done players. players must be out of high school for at least one year before becoming eligible for the draft that means some duke freshman might turn pro. wisconsin coach said he doesn't
8:03 am
like the one and done approach. >> every player that has played through the program we don't do a rent a player. you know what i mean? try to take a fifth year guy or whatever. that is okay. if other people do that that's great. i like trying to build from within. it's just the way iam. >> missouri senator entered the controversy tweeting congrats to duke but i was rooting for the team who had stars that are actually going to college and not just doing a semester tryout for nba and then apologized but wrote i understand why it is happening but i don't have to like it. >> national title is the fifth for duke and its hall of fame coach mike krzyzewski joining us now from indianapolis. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. really happy here man. >> there is much to talk about in terms of this victory and the team that you say that you loved as much as anyone. just playing off of what we just
8:04 am
said. do you do rent a player? >> who doesn't rent a player? we -- duke doesn't rent a player. when we recruit a young man we recruit because of things because he has the talent to do well and has great character. all the guys on my team fit that description 100%. in today's world you have to adapt to what is happening. throughout college there are many kids who don't go even the whole four years because of opportunities, business opportunities that are available and they are not just athletes. and so if the opportunity arises for a youngster to leave early from school whether he or she is an athlete or not. it's their opportunity to pursue
8:05 am
it. so i think we're living in the dark ages when we say it should only be done one way. >> how would you change it? >> i would allow really a youngster to go straight out of high school if he was good enough. they only have the earning potential of about a 15-year period as a player. and you can get a better contract. if they did go to college i would like to see them there for two years so they would be half way towards a degree probably half way with summer school. we have to adapt to what the nba is doing and the nba players association. it's not our responsibility. i wish it was, to determine that rule. and we have done well. all of these kids charlie my guys are great. they go to school. they love duke. they live with the other students. and the rent a thing is kind of
8:06 am
harsh. >> coach k, i love duke too. my son went to dub. i am wearing duke blue in your honor today. >> thank you. >> you're welcome, sir. it was such a great night. i was cheering you on from the bedroom. there were so many heart stopping moments during that game. i heard you say at one point we were dead in the water. what did you think to turn it around with the freshmen on the team? >> you know i have the most together group i have ever had. they love one another. they're brothers. it was that way from day one. they have come back before. and we coined the phrase a couple months ago that eight is enough. we only have eight schsholarip players. four from our freshmen. we have confidence in all of them. grace on the defense jefferson and matt jones combined for two points in 42 minutes or 43
8:07 am
minutes but their defense on decker and kiminski in the second half was huge for us to get back because they gave us stops. >> the lead kept changing. it was ready set go and full throttle the whole game. it was nerve racking watching that game last night. >> it was nerve racking coaching. wisconsin is a heck of a team. their coach is a great guy. really we felt that they were the best team in the country coming in. and so to win this we felt we beat a great basketball team and a great program. >> you thought they were better than kentucky coming in? >> i thought they were more experienced. and they probably won over 70
8:08 am
games together these two years and lost just a handful. they were old together and have kiminski and decker two guys who would be in the first round of the nba draft. they're talented and they played together for two straight years which is uncommon in a college game. >> coach, it was interesting to learn and tally up the numbers afterwards to learn that every point scored in the second half was by one of your freshman players. >> it's amazing. i have four great freshmen. but they're led by a great senior in quinn cook. quin set the table for these kids where they always felt comfortable and like they had a big brother there for them. our mvp for this team is quinn

i'm brian vickers, nascar® driver. i'm kevin nealon comedian. and i'm arnold palmer, professional golfer. know what we have in common? we talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto®. me, when i had a blood clot in my leg that could have traveled to my lungs. that's why i took xarelto®, too. xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. i took xarelto® for afib... an irregular heartbeat that can lead to a stroke from a blood clot. xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. hey, well i'm glad we got together. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. i tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine and dietary restrictions had me off my game. tell me about it. let's see, golf clinic, or blood clinic? ooh, that's a tough one. not this time. not with xarelto®. anything else? i'll have another arnold palmer.
8:12 am
ok. make mine a kevin nealon. really, brian? hey, safety first. like all blood thinners, don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking xarelto® you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle-related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve, or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u.s. and that number's growing. like your guys' scores. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring, and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto®. you may be able to get up to

overweight. $2.5 billion spent on weight loss programs. dr. holly phillips is here with a new johns hopkins study. good morning. >> good morning, gayle. >> they looked at three diet programs. i i'm thinking weight watchers or jenny craig. >> those came out on top. they looked at three different groups of diet programs. 11 diets in total and focused on those that have at least a year's worth or could show effectiveness over the course of a year not just two or three months. we know short term weight loss doesn't have many health benefits. if you stretch it out over a year you are in business. the headline is the two they deemed most effective were weight watchers and jenny craig. when they compared people who did those diets those people lost 3% to 5% more weight over a year than people who tried to diet alone. nutrisystem is also in that
8:16 am
group of diets. they didn't have enough research to show it lasted over a year. >> the question is what she said. why? what is it they had in common? >> this review didn't really assess why but we know one thing that those diets do very well which is they integrate teamwork. they integrate a group approach. a lot of people do it in the work place or bring in colleagues friends partners and go into a place and meet other people in the same position as you. we know the only diets that work are those that you stick with. and if you have some companionship along the way you are more likely to do it. >> they give you structure, though. those group meetings i went to the wedding and had some cake. i like having the structure. that is what i think is so important. >> since you have done this before -- >> many times. >> how do you separate? what made a difference for you? >> i need the structure where they say you can eat this this
8:17 am
this, this. that's what works for me. >> i just can't do it by myself. >> that is a very important point. one of the other groups of diets replacement systems where they can track a significant amount of weight loss during a few months but couldn't say it lasted for a year or longer. >> you have to go back to eating normal. >> those are really hard to sustain and expensive. they can be $600 or $700 a month. >> you are really excited about this study and what is shows. why? >> every single day i am in the position to tell people for your health we need to focus on weight loss. of course, these programs are advertised at nauseam. patients say what works and what doesn't? i haven't been able to give an answer. these researchers looked at 4,100 studies to try to comb through the data. i feel like i can say jenny
8:18 am
craig and weight watchers have real proof behind them and some of the others don't. >> i think weight watchers -- >> put that on your fork. >> easier said than done. >> i think weight watchers is good because it teaches you something, portion control and how many points different foods add up to. >> you can stay on it forever. that's a really important aspect of it. >> thank you so much. top government officials cited her flawed reporting to help make the case for war in iraq. former "new york times" reporter will join us here in studio 57 answering critics of her stories leading up to u.s. invasion ahead here on "cbs this morning." cbs morning rounds sponsored by k 9 ad vantx ii. an just a pet. so protect them... ...with k9 advantix® ii. it's broad-spectrum protection k ills fleas ticks and mosquitoes too.

8:24 am
leaving the default password you might as well leave the door open. >> how do you know you have been hacked? >> in this case the camera was moving around and heard music coming through it. if you see unusual behavior you should probably check into it to make sure it is secure. if you are talking about something like a door lock it is harder. >> what are companies doing to protect their products from these hackers. we talk about your home becoming more digitally wired. >> we are seeing companies no longer rely on default passwords that are easy to guess. we are seeing more and more with pass words built in. >> i was going to say i thought maybe

8:35 am
you can how you look at this and what you did wrong and what you did right and what you regret? >> that's the book. i wrote the book because i wanted to look at the events that had taken us to war and the role of the media and my own role. and to examine what stories were right and what stories people said were wrong that turned out to be right or partly wrong. but more than that i wanted to look at this mean, this narrative that so many americans believes we were lied into the war. people were pressured into giving estimates they didn't believe in. people like me were spoon fed information. and in my experience none of that was true. i couldn't find individuals having been pressured. >> did dick cheney quote an article by you saying we have to go to war because there are
8:36 am
weapons of nuclear mass destruction in iraq. >> he was quoting our article based on intelligence he was getting when president bush asked his cia director are you sure there are weapons there? you are confident? if the president of the united states is told yes we have these weapons there is the "new york times," the "washington post" or cbs supposed to say no. what we are supposed to do is try to examine the claims. i did the best i could to do that. most of my stories are filled with people going on the record saying we believe this is true. we believe this is a threat to the nation. >> what did you do wrong? >> i think what i did wrong was i wasn't prevented by my paper to look at the stories when we had more information. i went to iraq. i spent four months with soldiers who were top secret embedded looking at the hunt. when we didn't find weapons i
8:37 am
said wow. what happened here? we had a massive intelligence failure. i wanted to look at that. i wasn't permitted to do that. that is what we do wrong. we are all going to make mistakes. when we don't look at the mistakes and correct them that's what is wrong. >> why do you think your reporting was singled out? you collaborated on a lot of stories and other stories were later disputed. why do you think you were singled out? >> i was responsible for covering in general and covering iraqi weapons for a long time. soviet nuclear weapons. second of all, since i wrote a lot of the stories with male colleagues i don't know maybe being a woman had something to do with it. the aluminum tube story quoted was written with michael gordon, a superb reporter. >> when you look on the episode because with the front page piece with you and michael gordon that talked about iraq's

efforts to secure aluminum tubes to build a nuclear weapon it was on sunday morning it came out. the vice president of the united states went on meet the press, cited your story as evidence as proof. then you also had condoleeza rice on cnn that same day saying we don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud. all of the intelligence at the time, though was that they were five to seven years away from a nuclear weapon. that was the current intelligence from the cia. what the times and what i read suggested there wasn't enough in what was put on the front page. editors made mistakes noting qualifications saying this doesn't show that. do you regret any of that? >> i don't. five days later michael gordon and i and i was the one pushing for this wrote a story saying
8:39 am
you know that aluminum tube story there is a big debate in the intelligence community about this. many people don't believe this. that's the kind of follow up that i hoped others would do and draw conclusions. i certainly wanted to go on doing it. had i been permitted to i probably would still be at the times but i had to go to jail. >> and more rigorous in the sources that you had? >> i couldn't have been. i talk in this book about how i went to an analysts house. i paced up and down. i felt like a journalistic cliche. there i am with my little note book. he said i can't talk to you about this. most of my sources were on the record. >> this is serious. "wall street journal" has an excerpt quoting you about suggesting that special council in his prosecution of scooter litty induced you to give what
8:40 am
you now realize was false testimony. that's a serious charge against a federal prosecutor saying he induced me to give false testimony. >> what i'm saying is that he had information that would have helped jog my memory about something which i hadn't considered very important at the time which is who leaked information about cia agent. i was more focused on how the heck did we go to war on the basis of a faulty intelligence estimate that was 100% wrong? when i heard about this other story i wasn't really concentrating on it. my notes were very very unclear. mr. fitzgerald who had a lot of time to prepare this case had information that could have perhaps jogged my memory and he didn't give it to me. when i began to look at this case i realized a lot of information that they needed to make the best case they could. i realized that prosecutors are supposed to get convictions but

the truth shouldn't be a victim of their pursuit. >> you describe yourself smart, fearless relentless to now pushy, warmongerer you said you laughed and cried. >> i have been called worse. and you have to take the blows. but i think what was most disappointing was my paper's effort to deflect attention from the prewar reporting that it claimed was flawed to one or two individuals that in this case me. i don't think it was fair and i don't think it was right. >> thank you. and the story goes on sale today. a wife ignored doctors when they said it might be time to give up on her husband. >> fought for me the whole time. and if you really know the reason i'm here today. >> the couple's unbreaka
