7:04 am
executions. they posted the evidence of those horrific killings on the internet. now, the circle was retaken by these u.s. backed syrian forces last night and yesterday we witnessed them on the streets of raqqa celebrating. they were in a victorious mood after a full month long battle. it is a bizarre feeling to be here, because during the three plus years that isis was in control of raqqa, if i had somehow made it into isis territory i would almost certainly have been taken captive and very likely killed. now, there are thought to be isis fighters still lurking and building in buildings and in tunnels here in raqqa and it could take months until the city is finally cleared of explosives that were laid by isis. then they will somehow have to find a way to rebuild this shattered city. where there is hardly a building that is unscathed. some buildings like this one over here have been left pulverized by fighting. others like the one behind me have been fen

ford has been repairing the police cruisers at no cost, but the issues are separate from the complaints in civilian models and are due to modifications of the vehicles after they were purchased like responding emergency lights. responding to the call for recall ford says the company is confident in our current methods for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues so instead of a recall ford will be sending letters to owners of 2011 to 2014 ford explorers to bring their cars into dealerships for possible repairs. the wifi network in your home may have some dangerous curt problems. ahead the newly discovered flaw that opens almost every wifi

8:13 am
courage. it's an excruciating choice, but i realized that my career, my american dream of 27 years of hard work was going to come to an end and it wasn't my choice and i decided that i had to speak up. if i didn't, who was going to do it and i didn't want my children to face the same indignities that i had faced. >> you also say that many women -- any woman who has spoken up and it's not just tv news, you said it crosses all kinds of businesses where there is an issue, but you point out in your book that any woman who has spoken up is no longer in her chosen career. i thought that was very interesting and surprising. >> isn't that shocking and horrifyi horrifying? it's an equal opportunity epidemic. i started hearing from thousands of women and they were waitresses, they were bankers, teachers, flight attendants, many of whom have thanked me over the last year because they have all faced this pervasive issue. this is a silent epidemic in our country. >> but the perpetrators are still in place. >> bau

culture to silence the victims either with settlements where you're gagged from ever saying what happened to you or enforced arbitration which is a part of employment contracts now and here's the key, it's secret. so these are the ways in which we've chosen to resolve sexual harassment in our country and we need to understand that. >> explain that for those of us that don't know about these arbitrations. >> so contracts now a clause that means that you're giving up your 7th amendment right when you sign it to go to an open jury process. listen, when we start new jobs none of us expect to get into disputes. i know i didn't, but if you do it's going to be resolved through arbitration but here's the key. it's secret. you can never tell anyone what you're doing. no one will ever know about it. 20% of the time only the employee wins that much. >> you say silence is the most powerful weapon of the harasser. >> guess what happens then? the woman gets fired. she never goes back to her
8:15 am
is left in the work place to continue harassing. >> which is the case with your settlement. >> the case with my settlement is that i can continue to talk about this issue which i've been doing so much work on it for 15 months. i just can't dell you the nitty-gritty details but you can look at it online what my complaint is. >> when you spoke out some of your colleagues publicly doubted your stories and they defended roger ales at the time. this guy is doing 8 million things a day. you really think he's chasing her around? i know you can't speak about specifics but were you prepared for the reaction from even women that you worked with? >> yes. >> you were? >> yes. because look at how we react when women have the courage to come forward. we need to change this and we are. look at what's happening with the harvey weinstein story. >> you call that a tipping point. you call that a watershed moment. why? >> because women are putting their names and their f
8:16 am
it's not just anonymity anymore. i really believe it's horrifying as those revelations were that i'm optimistic that the hard work i've been doing for the last 15 months is paying off and the gift of courage is contagio contagious. it passes along one woman at a time and look where we are. the #metoo trending for the last two days and now men are putting out their own hash tags to say, they want to be on board. and we need men to help us. >> that -- that is very important that they're part of this conversation. there's a great article in the hollywood reporter by crista vernoff. she said this entire culture is come police sit. we make this all about harvey we've already lost and i've heard many people say we're focusing on that but please look at the bigger picture of what is happening in all industries. do you agree with that? >> i agree with that because the thousands of women who reached out to me, those stories were r

8:18 am
to also come forward. >> i've heard people say we knew he might have been a brute or a bully when it came about his movies. we might have known he was a philanderer but we didn't know that. i've heard many people say we didn't know it was that extreme. >> i'm sure that other people knew that. i'm sure that they did because this is the way in which it works and this is how we cover it up. >> you watched when the billy bush cape tape came out during the campaign. you watched this with your kids. >> the first time i didn't watch it with my kids. i felt it was imperative that i showed my 12 and 14-year-old kids that this is not how you treat human beings and i think it was a teaching moment for millions of parents across america. at least i hope it was that they could show their children that this is not how you respect women because look, its starts with our kids young. this is why i have an entire
8:19 am
should parent our kids in an equal fashion because it's really more about our sons. how are we raising them? to respect women when they eventually get into the work place and that video tape, i don't care what your politics are, sexual harassment is apolitical and everyone should care about it. they don't say are you a republican or a democrat? they just do it. and this is why we should all care about it and human decency supersedes any policy in my mind. >> you went through a rough time. was it all worth it when you look back at it? you didn't hear from people you expected to hear from. you felt alone many times. as you sit here today, was it all worth it iffer you to go through this sf. >> it was, gayle, because if there's one constant thing about me, i always take on a challenge head on and i never give up. and i know that i have been a voice for so many women who never had one. and now i'm seeing that something good is

salaries in south dakota. we drove all of the economy in the local area. gold was booming 44 years ago. when cbs last visited the mine in lead. but after years of increasing production costs and declining prices, the mine shut down in the early 2,000s. hundreds of people lost their jobs. including luke scott. >> so when you heard home stake was closing, how did you process that? >> it's pretty hard to process that. i mean, it was -- it was tough. because then you got to try to find another job, you know, but there isn't a lot of jobs for miners in this area. >> another mining town with a shutdown mine. lead could have taken a dive. but it

8:37 am
you had equal knots of matter and anti matter they should have met and annihilated each other, so why are we here? >> rather than shrinking, lead is now growing. all on account of some masterful repurposing. >> the next stage of the underground lab, exploring these concepts will be conducted here where we're heading. >> exactly. >> over the next decade a new billion dollar international physics project will be built half a mile from the first lab. in another part of the old home stakes mine. >> the next phase of this cutting edge research will actually unfold on the other side. >> correct. >> just about 200 feet away. >> reporter: and another influx of scientists and visitors will be expected in lead, which is still trying to fill empty store fronts and revive

8:45 am
shoouser. >> it's so great to see the history that crosses all genres but let's talk about leonardo because you describe him as a man of eye catching brewteauty a genius, but a different kind of genius. >> a wonderful drawing. you said that was his self-portrait. >> it fits his description totally and it is an icon of connecting art and science. this is a drawing in which you get every proportion exactly right. 230 measurements to get it right but he also does something of unnecessary beauty as he's standing there naked in the earth and in the universe figuring how do we fit in. >> how is this genius different from other geniuses though? >> some people like mozart say great genius but in a particular field. what's interesting is when you can cross
