and it sort of goes to his unsophistication, i think. >> reporter: forces tell abc news rahami is not initially failing to even give his name. tonight they're searching his home. sources telling abc news police have found evidence of bomb-making. >> based on the information we have now, we have every reason to believe this was an act of terror. >> reporter: they say there's no evidence rahami is part of a terror cell but they are dissecting rahami's life online, they say to make sure he was acting alone. police hope they have their man, praying now that the threat is over. but taking no chances. for "nightline," i'm pierre >> our thanks to pierre thomas for that report. >>> up next, whoopi goldberg takes us inside the lives of transgender fashion models. >>> later, robin roberts is in the kitchen with both chef currys. econds... and the acid reducer lasts up to 12 hours in one chewable tablet. try duo fusion. from the makers of zantac. hold onto your forks. endless shrimp is back at red lobster. that means you get to try as much as you want... ...of whatever flavors are calling your n

place right now, but when you look at this in totality, there seems to be a certain level of unsophisticationn the bombmaking and placement of the bombs, but also the fact that he was sleeping in a doorway of a bar near his home. so i mean, this doesn't seem to be extremely well planned as we think about how terrorist cells like, operate maybe in europe, in the middle east. so i think with all of the information that we know as the public, and what's being put out from law enforcement sources, you know, the jttf and the task forces that are operating have a ton more information, and they're just running this down. i think over the next 24 to 48 hours, we could see a pretty good wrap-up of not only what his involvement was here, but also other individuals that were involved. >> maybe not sophisticated, maybe not well planned, but goes to show without sophistication, even with a lack of sophistication, you can do something very, very dangerous. >> still very deadly, yes. >> 29 injured. could have been much, much worse. bob bair, one specific question for you. if this man was identified -- you'r

but it's unsophisticated. that's what makes it difficult for the new york police and the fbi, is run the devices down. if it were somebody who knew what they were doing, they would tell you quickly who did it and probably why. but the fact that almost anybody can sit down and make one of these bombs. it doesn't matter to them whether they all go off. if they have a series of bombings, it's going to have a devastating effect on new york city or wherever these things occur. >> what does it tell you, bob, that no one has claimed responsibility, as far as we know, in new jersey or in new york city? >> well, a lot of these bombings we don't see responsibility claimed. sometimes, the homegrown ones, a sign on the internet, if it's on the deep net, is these are the days. we'll launch an offensively. somebody like the islamic state wouldn't know who is acting in its name or carrying the acts out all together. there is so much that go on in encrypted apps and the rest of it, that the fbi and national security agency ju

some were very -- very unsophisticated, too, moving up into sophisticated devices. so you know, we are just concerned about if he had help or not, and i believe that's where the investigation is at it stands right now. >> are you doing a postmortem now to find out, he traveled several times back to afghanistan, relatively understandable. his parents were from afghanistan, he was born in afghanistan. presumably still had relatives there and wanted to see his homeland if you will, but the separate trips to pakistan, including for almost a year, not that long ago, when he came back to the united states he had a secondary interview arriving in the united states, but no one spotted anything wrong. are you taking a look to see if some evidence was missed that potentially could have prevented the four bombings that occurred over the past few days? >> naturally, homeland and the fbi are going back over, you know, those interviews now, and to look to see if there are any indicators, but at that point, he went through the process. there was no indication that there was an iss

and also receiving introductions to do, carry out these attacks through sophisticated means or unsophisticated means. >> he was scheduled to be in virginia court this morning and quite frankly we thought it would wrap up but as soon as we get update on sentence, we will update you, jenna. greg: hillary clinton and donald trump getting ready for monday's big debate. right now we are checking out new research by a harvard professor that suggests the news media is bias against hillary clinton. well that analysis clinton has underdone negative news throughout the campaign. donald trump insists it's the other way around. let's get to the bottom of it with media panel, author and fox news contributor, lynn with the chicago suntimes. context is everything. it turns out that all of the negative stories were dominated by hillary clinton's e-mail scandal and 91% of those stories were negative. well, of course, they were, it's a scandal. there's nothing much positive to say about a scandal. >> actually as i read that study, greg, it said that 11% of the stories were actually devoted to the e-mail scandal

it's not unsophisticated but it's not something 2458d narrow down for me the pool of people who couldis. all right. it's going to be a large group of people still. so without physical evidence, pictures, as i was saying earlier, is there evidence on the bodies of those now in jail -- in the hospitals in terms of shrapnel. all of those will have to be investigated. so unfortunately, this does not -- this image alone tells me this is two things. this is purposeful. the these things don't just get made. there is some discussion of writing. obviously, everyone's very curious about that, what does that say, what language is it in and other issues that we'll be focused on and reporters will be looking into but unfortunately, it doesn't narrow down anything. that's the challenge about -- that the nypd is facing today is in a world of soft targets and the capacity to build makeshift weaponry, let alone weaponry that already exists, they have to go on other types of evidence. i just want to add one more thing quickly. you're looking also because it was not detonated, there might be finger prin

he is sweating and this is a very unsophisticated political pundit prodigy. >> the iq part of it.l connection. >> and kennedy smiled and i said to myself, maybe i really was made for this profession. i said he's just won the election. in we now know that nixon hit his knee and pledged to campaign in all 50 states which he did. he was tired, and haggered but appearances count for something i want to say one last thing. what i thought was an ugly remark about obama when they debated. hillary clinton, you're likeable enough. i must say, she in person in the limited conversations i've had with her, is literally funny, charming, relaxed and -- >> as are you. >> thank you. >> people wouldn't know. >> but she doesn't come that way in the medium of the tv. >> i hear you. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> this rumble with the refs got you roaring. after this. ♪ 3, 2, 1 test. test. test. test. test. >>> i want to take you to the white house where the president has arrived after vetoing the 9/11 legislation that allows families to sue saudi arabia. that could be overridden. the president

these are unsophisticated students that have a great deal of risk.ow, that's not true across the board with for-profit education, but certainly when we're talking in the context of corinthian. >> smith: corinthian. that's the for-profit chain that included everest college. it's the school those three nursing students had attended. we looked one of them up, martha salmon, and found her living in southern california. martha had paid back the $28,000 she owed in student loans, but at a cost. >> that was money that could have gone towards my house or for my kids. it could have gone a lot of different ways. but i just wanted to get rid of it. >> smith: her degree from everest never resulted in nursing work, so she was forced to start over. >> i got my r.n. from citrus college. it's a community college in glendora. and from day one, the start of that school was totally different from everest. there's really no comparison. for our psych rotation at citrus, the r.n. program, we went to a psych hospital. and we were there for four weeks, and we were able to i

campaign trail, already, we've seen a number of moments in which he's actually been financially unsophisticated when he's spoken about the debt markets, the federal debt, the federal reserve and monetary policy, fiscal policy. there is a large degree of ignorance around someone who is saying that his experience as a business person qualifies him for the oval office. and i think what he has been successful as, as a businessman, isin self-promotion.f- he's a very self-assured, self-promoter, but that's very different from being a great entrepreneur. he is not a john re john rockef, henry ford, steve jobs or mark zuckerberg. he's essentially a p.t. barnum, and there's a real skill and street smart approach he has around keeping himself in the public eye,e keeping a certain perception about who he is front and center with the media, with his political opponents, and with voters. but the reality is there is -- there is a very wizard of oz truth about a lot of the things surrounding donald trump, that when you just look at the fact pattern around his track recordo as a business person and pull the cu

other two bombs, these would be sophisticated triggering mechanisms by an amateur unsophisticat unsophisticated bomber. in the hands of a practiced bomber, these are sophisticated. the cell phone could be used as a timer or to call and detonate the bomb as a power source and packed with ball bearings or bbs and the explosive pillar. >> we know that there was shrapnel or some sort of bbs and we saw some of the people who got hurt in chelsea with pieces of metal coming out of them, commissioner. is there a sense there had to be training either traveling to a place like afghanistan or connection to somebody if this is -- >> i tell you, it's pretty mature to say right now, but as your guests says, "inspired magazine" and the other isis training manuals, they have all this stuff in there. the material is not hard to find. not hard to put together. but like i said, i just think you're going to find more than one guy doing this involved in this plan. >> would you agree with that? do you think, jim, that this indicates when you have this many devices in these different locations, the likelihood is that

the size of the device, the placement of the device, the unsophisticated nature of it indicates thatou never know -- the good news is -- the other device found on 27th street, that was intact. it seems that those two may be related, that bomb did not explode so frenically, i think that should prove a treasure trove of evidence for the inspectors. sorry, abby. >> that's all right. we had rudy giuliani and asked whether or not he thought it was terror rel what he told us. >> you don't know who did it, how they did it, why they did it. i can't -- unless he has a lot more information than it appears he has, it seems to me premature to say it is or is not connected international terrorism but a bomb almost by definition, when you explode a bomb in a crowded area, that's an act of terrorism. i believe you lead from the front. i'm sort of mcarthur patton kind of leader, you lead from the front and you're there and tell the facts you know aebt don't avoid things by trying to sound you've mystic because nobody will -- to say it is islamic terrorism is jumping too far. to say this was an act o

unsophisticated hacker, what's the big deal? they do not tell anyone in government. they do not tell anyone in law enforcement. but this case, which is a real case, they did do the right thing and they worked with the federal government. and if they hadn't done that, what they would never have found out is that at the other end was not some low-level crook or criminal hacker, but instead, it was a guy named freearizi, a koo extremist who had moved from malaysia, from malaysia had hacked into this company. and what he was doing with the personally identifiable information, he was not only looking to make a buck, he was providing it on the back end to one of the most notorious cyber terrorists in the world at the time, a man named junade hussein, a british-born citizen who had moved to raqqah, syria, where he was at the heart of the islamic state of the levante. he wasn't cashing in, instead he was combing through that list -- >> so, bitcoin extortion was fueling isis in raqqah? >> worse than that. so, it's not just that the extortion can fuel isis in raqqah, he was go
