the new york fed had a lot of leverage. a lot of leverage to negotiate a reduction, but instead the fed took goldman sacks' position and settled it fully with taxpayer money. mr. geithner, under normal circumstances, goldman sacks would have had to sue aig in court to recover the disputed $2.5 billion to and settled for something less. isn't it true that they gave goldman sacks a better deal than they could have expected. any market player at any other time. >> if we had the ability like we have for banks to put them into an early process, we could have done many things. under the laws of the land, we did not have the ability. we faced a simple choice. let aig default or prevent it. there was no way financial, legal, or otherwise we could have imposed haircuts, selectively default on any of the snugdss without the risk of downgrade and default. that is the only reason. they give a better deal than was delivered. at the same time giving no financial relooefr whatsoever to millions facing a foreclosure crisis. if that doesn't

many people think of new york city and the new york city metropolitan area as new york. but upstate new york is an area that has seen economic depression and real challenges over over the past few decades whether the country or the city of new york is experiencing a boom. and toward that end it will be critically important that upstate new york have access to high-speed rail in the first instance. louis slaughter hails from my area and represents a part of my town i think it's something it will really benefit a whole swath of communities across upstate new york. and then leading westward toward chicago. so i implore you to have that when you have your plan. the second thing i would like to identify is the importance of universities and colleges as economic engines in the rochester area the university of rochester is the largest employer in the county. part in the city of rochester and the part in the city of brighton. and the infrastructure is inadequate to accommodate the university's planned growth which not only delivers medical, bio medical, bio tech types of researc

that's what the new york fed did. the government gave goldman sachs more than goldman sachs had any right to expect, while at the same time giving no financial relief whatever to millions of americans facing a foreclosure crisis. if that doesn't illustrate what the new york fed thought it was working for, or who it was working for, i don't know what does. you may respond and then my time is expired. >> cookman that is not true. it is unfair to the public servant -- >> what's not true? >> what you just said. >> what is not true? >> it's not true that the actions we took on a.i.g. were for the benefit of anybody but the millions of americans who at that point were suffering from the worst financial crisis since the great depression. the only way to help reduce that damage, protect that damage, was to fix the system and prevent catastrophic failure that would have made that crisis worse. that is the only motive that underpinned those actions. >> i thank the gentleman. my time is expired. mr. duncan. >> mr. secretary, you

i think we'll see more of that , probably not at a paper like the "new york times", but at smaller newsorganizations around the country. the "miami herald" now on the bottom of each story include both an invitation to subscribe to the paper in print and an invitation to donate for good journalism at the "herald". >> brown: and bill mitchell, staying with you, the other side of this is advertising. when do we know about how advertisers feel about these kind of paid-for subscriptions? >> it's a very risky calculation. the critical challenge the "times" faces is not chasing away so many of its online readers that it really diminishes the number of eyeballs it can deliver to advertisers. on the other hand, advertisers appreciate the intensity of relationship that's reflected by people who are paying to actually read the news and are staying commit to the newspaper. >> brown: gur, do you want to weigh in on that one finally? >> one of the things we found at the ""wall street journal" online" which had a subscription model indicating back to 1996, i believe, is that advertisers in many ways v

those guards were mostly young americans from new york, and i mean new york city. but also from minneapolis where the trotskyist had put down roots along the teamsters organization. it was the only place where they had a falling among what trotsky called proletariat. some of the teams came to serve as guards and some less successfully than others. the teamsters it turns out were not all cut out to be guards of trotsky or anybody else. despite diego's generosity the shortage of funds in the trotsky household just to run the household but also for his protection is quite shocking. one of the things i discovered in researching the book there were always running out of money. the guard fund runs out of money and they are asking natalia for from this, please don't tell trotsky and back and forth and all around. also when you sort of get what you pay for when you see is the poor quality of some of the guards and there's quite scandalous as well. you can believe it. reading the documents or reading the book that this is the best the great trotsky could attract or the most

bishop of new york. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from new york's recognized. mr. bishop: thank you, mr. speaker. let me start by thanking my friend, mr. lynch, for his remarks with respect to this legislation. let me also thank the gentleman from illinois for his remarks and his support of this legislation. mr. speaker, i rise as the proud sponsor of h.r. 3250, and i thank the leadership for calling up this bill to name the united states post office located at 1210 west main street in riverhead, new york, in my district on eastern long island as the private first class garfield m. langhorn post office building. it was a journey of hard work -- of a hardworking american family looking for an opportunity and a better way of life that brought the family of private first class garfield langhorn of the united states army from cumberland, virginia, to new york. his mother still lives in this close nit community. her name is mary, where she raised her son who proudly answered the call of his country during the vietnam war. he distinguished himself as a radio operator and

and he woke up in a hospital in new york. and he claimed am these ya.laughter] army officials thought it was laughable. they, they, they thought he had gone awol just to escape staying in the army. but robinson wanted to get out of the army. he wanted to fight again. he thought that if he stayed in the army much longer, he was going to start losing some of his skills. which, as we now know, certainly didn't happen. but there were many, many sports writers in new york, there were eight or nine newspapers, and many sports writers and many of those sports writers had gone to war. and when robinson was honorably discharged, there had been stories about him leaving the bare ax and being -- bare acts and being found and being taken to the hospital. he told the doctors he didn't know what happened, he didn't know how he got on the street. well, these sports writers, they really came after him. they called him a coward, and they absolutely thought he was faking and that he was lying. and that did haunt him for years. >> host: do you think some of that had to do

>>> hello, everyone, i'm don lemon, reporting live tonight from new york. we are tracking a developing weather story this hour with temperatures 5 to 25 degrees below normal across two-thirds of our nation. it is not just cold air. check this out. new england is getting wallops by heavy snow this weekend, and all of this is snarling holiday travel around the country as well. our jacqui jeras hard at work at the cnn severe weather center in atlanta. you see she's checking on the conditions now. we will check with jacqui in just a few minutes. >>> first, we want to get to the terror threat now and some tough talk from president barack obama today. he is making a direct connection between the suspect in the christmas day terror attack on a u.s. airliner and al qaeda forces based in yemen. in his weekly remarks, mr. obama said the group al qaeda in the arabian peninsula has attacked u.s. targets before and the u.s., he vowed, is fighting back. >> so as president, i've made it a priority to strengthen our partnership with the yemeni government, training and equip

again, all this directly from the new yo"new york daily news."ghtforward when it's laid out that way. >> yes. but unfortunately it wasn't all laid out inside the national counterterrorism center which was, david, as you know, created after the 9/11 attack, years after, on the recommendations of the 9/11 commission, as a clearinghouse, where all the intelligence from around the government would all come to one place, analysts would look at it and they would take action, they would authorize further investigation. what i find incredible here is that the embassy in nigeria has claimed that the state department has claimed the embassy in nigeria wasn't aware this young man had a multiple entry u.s. visa which he has used which was active at the time that his father came in november. and they didn't know that. it had been issued -- because they said it was issued by the u.s. embassy in london. this is mind blowing that any embassy around the world wouldn't know who has a u.s. visa. mind blowing. but the big question of the moment is, not just who's he

they took it over and it relied on photography in a way the new york press just didn't. even though the daily news was the daily picture newspaper its photographs were ugly and the ink ran off in your hands. i am holding the newspaper from 1940 to, 67 years old, and notice how well it still holds together. it has been in plastic but i have no danger of that in running off on my hands. when you look at the photographs they still reproduce well all these years later. similarly for the art that appeared. there was a dr. seuss cartoon in this paper. here it is. i think you can recognize dr. seuss's style by looking at the cartoon. this was the perfect venue. no other newspaper would give an artist that much space on the page as p.m. was willing to do. it was a great place to be if you were a writer, artist or photographer. the other thing that made it different from the rest of the new york press was how totally committed it was to anti fascism as a political credo. that was nowhere near more obvious than in the period from when it came into existence in june of 1940 until tw
