nancy grace.ou? >> nancy won't yell at you. >> when she zeros in on somebody, zoom. >> she's got good focus. >> right. >> nancy has great focus. >> she's here this morning. >> you know what the secret is? she's watching you, harry. she's a little bit of a softy. but you didn't hear that from me. >> she's got a brand-new show. called "swift justice." and nancy is not just the judge, she's the jury. that's right. >> look out. >> all right. so we're going to talk to her about her brand-new show in just a minute. >> also ahead this morning, it is so difficult as a parent to decide how to punish your kids. you're just getting to this stage right. i'm navigating it myself. harry is old hat now. you can't ground them the way that any of us were grounded because it just doesn't work anymore. they need to have things like their cell phones, the iphone, their facebook, they're so ahead of us technologically that this is their lifeline. so could you digitally ground them. >> starve them digitally. >> ah, but

the jury pool is constantly affected and infected by nancy grace, law-and-order. it is constantly being polluted -- i truly believe this -- by the media. it sounds silly but it is not. i really believe in the power of media to influence people. that is why i got in it. so we have to use it to our advantage. you have got to be in it to win it. if we are not controlling our image, someone else is. so you have got to start thinking about the way that the image of the public defender is going to be portrayed, either in dramatic television -- over which you will have a lot less control. or certainly, in news media. years ago, i got a phone call from a public defender in san francisco. he had a case receiving a lot of media attention, and he wanted me to come to cover the case for 20/20. some of his colleagues thought he was not to. what are you bringing a barbara walters in to cover a case at the san francisco public defender's office? they turned their noses up at him and thought it was silly. jonathan mentioned, it is a martyr complex, it is egotistical. some people

justice with nancy grace."also host of "nancy grace" on "headline news." thank you for joining us this morning. i know you're familiar with cases like this, personally and professionally. dr. petit was so strong when he testified on tuesday. but yesterday was too much for him and for many members of the jury. just breaking down, looking at the gruesome pictures. i know you've seen many cases like this. but it still takes your breath away. >> it really does. and i think there was one moment in the trial yesterday. in fact, i've never seen this happen where the jury is so disturbed and distraught the judge actually recessed for the day. and that was after they saw the photo of an 11-year-old michaela, in her pajamas, tied to the bed. her lower torso, waist-down, hanging off the bed, having just been raped before her murder. the jury was so upset, they had to go home. and as to dr. william petit, i imagine he was the way i was when i was a witness. you're numb. i don't know if it's so much being strong. you're jus

boss at cnn weekend ken jautz, formerly running hln "headline news," and then he hired glenn beck, nancy grace, joe behar. more opinionated, some say more tablo tabloid. what could that mean for cnn? >> i think that's the concern. everyone want to know what is he going to do with cnn and what is he going to do with these shows that he didn't develop and now has to shepherd to success. i would say that i think that the -- john klein's departure is the one that's sort of unexpected and that i don't know that we know enough about. if you lost confidence in someone like john, why let them establish the shows in your primetime and then get rid of him? it seems like an odd move to happen right now. both these men, jeff zucker and john klein were men that people speculated might lose their jobs long before now because they had such troublesome tenures in. john's case, cnn has been doing badly in primetime for a while. people are wondering what is nguyen going cnn going to do to shake things up and then it's hiring eliot spitzer and piers morgan and people are asking questions. >> rome hartman, he's a

year, and isis want to acknowledge jenny horn, rose mary jacobs, and i thank you, mary grace cohan, patricia gray, nancy, and suzanne, who helped us this year in choosing our fabulous teachers and principals. they deserve a round of applause. in addition to everything you are receiving, you are also getting certificates of honor from our major, from a single woman, senator, and supervisor duufty, so all of your guests are in your back acknowledging the fabulous work you have done. when we started this program, we wanted to be able to a knowledge not just one teacher, but a teacher for everyone because we have so many fabulous features, so it is too difficult to choose one. when i say she is representing september, she is actually representing the entire year this year as a teacher of the year. trudy osmond is our kindergarten teacher.

i think that nancy pelosi has handled her position thus far with a great deal of charm and dignity and grace. and that republicans run in fear from somebody like nancy because she is in possession of something that they all fear. that would be intelligence. i'm -- i have been very disappointed in the obama administration from the very beginning because of his cabinet picks until yesterday. you mentioned the appointment of elizabeth warren, i think this is the best thing that's happened thus far. it tells me something about our president obama. i think he is starting to read the writing on the wall. i think that this is going to be so helpful and i have good feelings between now and november. host: what do you think about the way he chose about the special adviser having to go through confirmation hearings? guest: caller: i think he did that for a reason. i think it makes more sense than anything. she is in possession of more knowledge about this position that she is going to go into. when you see that people like tim geithner and larry summers and folks of this iling their hackles are raised
