new york in ben's eyes is the hardest market in the world.s not ready to close the door on germany. he might be able to bring the company back home once it is firmly established. a couple of days later, i meet annika in an upscale restaurant. she's nervous. today, she's signing on with her new manager. >> hi! big day today. you get to sign the contract. are you excited? >> i am. >> his name is robert bloom. she met him through a friend. he's sure she's got a real chance. already, she's started her next performances. finally, annika signs the dotted line. >> ok. >> you feel different? >> yes. >> not quite like a marriage contract. >> annika is relieved to have found a manager like robert bloom. he's already helped a lot of new come kerse -- newcomers get their start. >> now that we're signed their first thing i have to do is we have to get her a work visa. i know one visa that will allow her to officially work and get paid. >> first, annika will have to return to germany for a few months to apply for her work permit. as soon as it's issued, sh

when giuliani was mayor, he was admired further away you got from new york than new york itself. then he became a hero in 9/11. but the crime rate began to go down under the administration and people were worried about giuliani. and a lot of people were worrying, what was going to happen after giuliani was gone. >> then crime continued to drop and dropped even further. now new york is even at its early 1960's rates of crimes where people my age remember when there were little kids, and the way we looked at the street then. it's a remarkable change. david, roberta brought up the roaring economy of the 90's. and the mayor's two firms coincided with those sometimes. did that help shape the way people felt about him now that he's about to leave city hall? >> it did, indeed. he said in his farewell speech that he said he couldn't believe that he had the fortune of being mayor of boston during it's best decades. we have strong hospitals, universities, and you can't underrate the value of those things. i also think that business is revaluing the city. in this information economy. the de

we'll go into new york here. see manhattan pop up on the map and here is the hudson river and then spuyten duyvil up the hudson river and where it meets harlem river is the curve we've been talking about that the train has been going around and has a reputation for often times being a very perilous curve as those trains come around at high speeds and train itself we've seen those train cars kind of dotted along here where the train tipped over. we were talking about the divers that were in the water potentially looking for some victims. the water temperature there was right around 43 degrees. it takes about 30 to 60 minutes in water of that temperature for your body to start to break down and for you to lose your coordination and then after that about an hour or two hours before it is potentially lethal to be in water that temperature. the air temperature at the time of the incident was right around 38 degrees so it was definitely on the cool side in the area of the accident. in fact, 34 degrees at the time of th

we've never had any incidents in new york, new york state does not do pollution well.shut it down immediately, stastandards out the door are highest in the world. so we're confident that the excellent track record that exists in new york will continue, under this new program, we just need the program out the door. and that is the problem the governor is playingolitics with science. he has harmed people, i mean about a hundred jobs lost, a hundred million dollars of investment, i have land owners calling me of day telli me they lost their farms and their in foreclosureecause they can't lease their minal rights, it is a tragedy 92 thomas before i lead you go, not that lawsuit is proceeding is there a timeline, we may get a answer on this? >> well, we have done is commented a summary proceeding, return able third week in january on merit, this not a protracts litigation, we go before a judge, we toil the story in our paper -- we told him the story in our paper we'll ask him to compel new york state to finalize the standards, new york is only state that shut do as not embr

for those of you who don't live in new york, it's in the bronx. basically, it was about to pull into the station, a time where you would expect the train to be slowing down. instead, it was going so fast that it literally, as eric said, flew off the tracks. we're being told that the train was headed into grand central station from poughkeepsie and there are multiple reports of injuries and fatalities. laura ingle rushing to the sk n scene, joining us live on the phone. what are you seeing and hear sng. >> i'm several yards away from the station in which this train was expected to arrive this morning. and we are just surrounded by a variety of emergency response vehicles. i have just seen one man being brought out on a stretcher, being loaded into an ambulance. he was talking to emergency responders. they had him sitting up. another man was seen brought up. they were holding an ice pack to his face. he was not walking very well. he was stumbling a little bit. looking to gain his balance. we're being told the governor, governor cuomo is here, survei

at the end of the day new york city gets a cut of financial transactions and it behooves new york citywall streeters in the city. >> all my wealthy wall street friends in a panic, redistribution socialist was going to become mayor and all of a sudden dramatically change the makeup of new york city's economy was misplaced. there's, a, only so much a mayor can do and, b, only so much he will do. he has strong relationships with developers and wall street, as you should. you should be a mayor for everyone, not just the 1%. where this film is very powerful is what you see. artists and what street photographers have been able to see is often what new yorkers weren't able to see, what often society doesn't see, those living at the margins. same thing, we want a mayor who sees those parts of new york that are struggling, not just the parts doing well. >> cheryl, i would go back to you on that. so much of street photography is showing people the unseen, which is poor people, people living on the fringes. this was a multi-year project. that work is very much reflected in the film. what did you

new york times published snowden write. the government directly go in and punish the new york times for doing it after publication but you know i don't think it's going to happen and when it does happen. it's going to be a real constitutional battle but i think the press will probably win well and that's that's i'm curious how you think the the your case the new york times case pentagon papers case how that has changed american journalism over the last forty years and is there a straight line or even a. this squiggly line between that and we can leaks and and what snowden did with you know working with glenn greenwald and the guardian in those releases. you know what all glenn greenwald we all know he's the former blogger to whom snowden leaked right i mean he's the sort of the modern day new york times in a way so what is there a straight line between the pentagon papers case and what happens today i think the straight line goes like this that if you're going to publish something like the snowden leaks. you'll probably go

c-span: when did you go to work for "the new york times"? >> guest: i went to work for "the new york times" full time as a staffer in 1955. january 19, 1955. and i had spent seven years doing general assignment reporting and feature writing for other newspapers, and i was a stringer on women's news for the times for about a year before i came back to new york. i was in london. and there i was with all that general experience behind me, and i was immediately sent to the women's page to cover fashion. because that's where women went in those days. c-span: there are all kinds of crazy little things that you learn when you read this book. i mean, crazy maybe not to the audience -- [laughter] but for those of us -- >> guest: not for the women. c-span: be let me tell you what i'm talking about. you married a man named stan levy. >> guest: that's correct. c-span: and his son is bob levey? >> guest: that's correct. c-span: that's what i mean by things you learn in this book. >> guest: yes. c-span: you married stan levy when? >> guest: in 1961. c-spa

we had one of the best ones in here and i'm talking from new york city here in new york state and what did that what does it do it means when there is a source for a story a reporter doesn't want to disclose the reporter doesn't have to do disclose it and that's pretty much the rule in the states but in the federal courts you know we have state courts we have federal courts. in the federal courts there is no such statute i think there should be one. there was a pretty good pie the way hang around before obama came in and he messed it up by putting in national security exception in it and i think we will have some point on that it may not be tomorrow. i've. created a distinction perhaps only in my own mind to get your take on it between journalists and acts of journalism it seems that if you're trying to craft a shield law or anything that has to do with journalism and you end up trying to define who is a journalist and this is what dianne feinstein has been trying to do in my view you you are dancing all over and around to maybe right through the first amendment saying well this person

once they get in new york and get it out of new york, do they convey that back >> guest: here is the dramatic part they're able to listen. people get to see and say what's going on heading north where we had it? a great then they would go upstairs and pan a letter and go to the location he penned his letter after the beginning in invisible ink and it was very precious stuff they invented or brought to the states. >> host: let's talk about the ink. how did it work? >> guest: the way it was they called it a sympathetic stain and when you do is you would write -- and i've tried this -- imagine writing and not be daniel to see the letter prior that you wrote it is really confusing. i don't write great anyway. it vanishes as you write and you are writing all this stuff down and put it inside a book and it comes off as a white page or 76 in the middle of a book, i don't know what that means. that means you go to 76 in the journal which and the page might be blank that was a message to washington if he wanted to bring it to life on long island devotee go to page 76 and that's where you'll f

to some extent, the new york fed and tim geithner, the president of the new york fed recognized that the system was changing and that it needed closer oversight and some fixing. he initiated before the crisis efforts to make the derivatives markets more robust, more transparent. he saw that there were problems and there are speeches that he made noting there are problems. i think part of this, taking a step back, this is about the evolution of the financial system from a bank-centered financial system to one in which has banks and nonbanks and the nonbank piece of it, the securities markets, the securitization markets or p markets, how that stuff is financed becoming more and more important over time. i think to a considerable extent, the regulatory system, oversight, did not evolve with the evolution of the system. the legal basis for oversight did not evolve with the evolution of the system. i think the new york fed saw actually some of these, some of the weak points, but the legal authority, the political backing, the general recognition wasn't there. >> the new regime basically s

to key members of the spy ring. >> host: how do they get the information to york it out of a york and convey it back to the americans? at. >> guest: they are able to listen now i listen if fear of people talk loud and other times people say what is going on? where are we headed? great. he would go upstairs a and write a letter and go to the location in and write it in invisible ink. it was precious that john j. invented or brought to the states for off. >> host: talk about that. how did it work? >> guest: they call the sympathetic. i tried this. imagine writing in not be able to see the letter prior. it is very confusing. >> host: it vanishes? >> guest: as you bright. you write this down and it is inside a box or of the white page or you right 76 in the middle that means go to 76 in the "journal" book the pages blank that is the message if you want to bring it to light to go to 76. jumping ahead they got more sophisticated afterwards when they said nobody goes white page to white page so right between the lines. so they went to the printing press guy who owned the does said they would

washington said i know when they are coming back to new york. so they come back to new york city and he says you can't face them. you can' can to be can't beat td so he has to use espionage and the guerrilla warfare. he has to be smarter bandanna. so it's only logical that we bring it to he needs a spy force, he needs his own cia and then you find out that he has a huge espionage background. he is noted from the french and indian war. to brush up on those skills so he tells the others this is what we are going to need to do. we need to find these people to help me out. >> host: to fill in the background tell us briefly what he did in the french and indian war. >> guest: i know that he was an officer where he had a chance to work with the french and find out what were they thinking here and there. he was able to pick up working with the british and they also made mistakes. he was a aggressive as a colonel at that point and he learned from that. that is another thing which i found fantastic about george washington who was on the side of a mountain

and when you did to new york it wasn't at an office here. it was by buying capital new york.bout the reason you decided to acquire as opposed to just start something is here? >> the reason we waited, and i think people did wonder why we waited six years to make any expansion. when you're in business, you're always tempted. wow, we've done something right. we can do anything right. you're tempted to overreach. when you overreach the core of what you built becomes weak. when it becomes weak, someone else will come in and disrupt you. we wanted to make sure that the foundation was strong. >> reporter: and then you could start thinking about expanding? >> we were there last year and started thinking, where do we want to do in terms of expansion? we were ready to expand. and then everything in life, it's all about timing. why it did you buy capital new york instead of just start politico new york which, trust me, we thought about it for years. it turned out they wanted their take on a buyer or take on a cash infusion, they came to us and it was an easy call from our end and ultima

the "new york times" article also says this. a fuller accounting of the attack suggests lessons for the united states that go well beyond libya. it shows the risk of exz pkting american aid in time of desperation to buy loyalty. it also suggests as the threats and militants around the region have multiplied, an intensive focus on combatting al qaeda may distract from safeguarding american interests. who, if anyone, can we trust? >> that's an example of something they got right and that actually contradicts other parts of the same article. you read the passage that you just read, and of course, the word that comes to mind is syria right off the top. but what that passage also shows is that it's very hard to identify in concepts that westerners understand exactly what the nature of the enemy is. that's the way al qaeda operates. that's the structure or non-structure they use. i think it's a real lesson to us on a much broader basis that shows what happened in benghazi has still not been taken into account in american policy. we we
