on her side in the street. >> reporter: connie hoagland was her best friend. >> connie was laying on her side curled up in a ball. i rolled her over, there was glass, there was shrapnel, there was shards of metal everywhere, everywhere. >> reporter: teddy knew all the hoagland family cell phone numbers, and she was the one who broke the news. >> i was driving and she said there was an explosion and my mom's truck blew up. so i immediately pulled over, stopped and called my dad, asked him what's going on. what do we do? >> reporter: what did he say? >> he said, i just heard, too. i don't really know all the details. >> reporter: the hoagland family gathered at uc san diego county medical surgery. >> we got to see her rushed from the hallway into surgery. it was probably ten seconds. and i just remember telling her, i love you, and her being awake but kind of being out of it. and then that was it. >> seeing her like that and all the wires coming out of her and the bags hanging and the blood and all that, it was very, very shocking, taken aback. i almost felt sick. >> reporter: what did

>> connie did call 911 and a s.w.a.t.m surrounded the house, but dwight held his son hostage and wouldn't leave. >> my wife started this -- >> after an hour long standoff, dwight finally surrendered. >> so as he walked out, the child was physically in front of him. >> like a shield? >> like a shield. he was inconsolable. i mean, as a mother to see your child in that distress, it's -- it's pretty devastating. >> dwight was arrested and connie filed for divorce. often that means the end of something. instead it was just the beginning of the worst chapter in connie's relationship with dwight jones. >> coming up, connie reaches out for help. >> i had people full-time on the school where the son goes. if connie went to work, there was somebody with her while she was working. >> but would even that be enough to protect her from dwight? >> he told me that he would wait until my defenses were down ask th then he would get me. >> when "dateline" continues. it has it has you know if your plan is then he would get me. >> when "datel

connie: we were e-mailing. tom: from that moment on, connie ones one of us. connie: we were e-mailing back and forth and he said he had a story. nice and i have no memory anymore. i forgot it. i had to develop a little repertoire because there were so many of these things coming out every day read one time, i have to tell you roger mudd reminded me, he called me and he said, new york times, let's see, another one. at the time was working for la times. before he came to the post. i was i think at the biltmore hotel in philadelphia on the phone, on a phone. the old-fashioned payphone with the accordion glass door. in a big black payphone estate. so i was sitting there. i was actually talking to somebody who had been dating. they came up and pressed their noses against the glass and they were harassing me, that they were harassing me. they pushed their way in. i was sitting here, i could see the belt buckles. they were at that height. so to get rid of them, i pulled the flies down. [laughter]. roger said to me, did you do that. and i went, i think so. edwin: on

connie: i will start.you quickly find your cohort, to a persondition that the women felt was our main supporter, she went to bat for us on every issue that she could, even though she was not herself as well treated as she should have been, but we really did not know that at the time. findso were able to cohorts elsewhere. this is the 50th anniversary of a lot of things. we actually made a mark, we .omen 2019 and 2020 mark the 50th anniversary not only of mayday but of the african-american , theral center, the house ,sian american cultural center the latino group. groups, the music groups. you know, this is how we survived. we found our people, as it were. you find your people and support your people and vice versa in the larger sense, and the good and in the micro sense, you find your friends. that is how you survive. think, that we to and thee run-up the reunionunding of the first women which took place this past september -- this last september, the 50th anniversary of our arrival at yale, was that we re

connie and elizabeth, i'm looking at the time now. i thought maybe what we could do is have elizabeth tell us a little bit about your group and the sisterhood in the peace marshals -- these marshals and then turn it over to mark to field some questions from the audience. that piece marshal role at yale really was quite remarkable and i love the story of how you all were trained. >> the challenge, and we're seeing this again today with the black lives matter protests. the challenge is when you organize peaceful protests, that people come in who are intent in disrupting it in a variety of ways. sometimes, i'm just going to call them outside agitators, are simply opportunistic and they want to loot a liquor store because they want some liquor. but more often, the outside agitators are deliberately trying to turn the peaceful demonstration violent in order to discredit it. this technique was well -- it had been used a lot in the anti war demonstrations were peaceful anti war demonstrations have been disrupted by violent right wing extremi

sen connie mack. successful banking career where he served three terms before running for one of florida's seats. insert to terms before running for reelection. upon returning to the private sector, at the in florida . [inaudible]. rated i will handed over to begin the conversation. and go ahead and present your questions through the chat feature. connie mack: think you very much and is such a joy to have this conversation the man i admire so much. and read the book connie it is great book. the new york times today had an article about the bookstores that i thank you so worth mentioning because i mckenna god but every time i read a book, a candle and by ten books to be able to send to friends. i think important to be able to really focus on the fact that as a nation we need to be literate and we need to be supporting authors across the spectrum. i'm a big fan of yours a big supporter of this equipment ten books. i read on kindle. i got ten blocks that i will buy and help other people do that as well.

think about it connie. in 2000 if you are on the ticket georgia would have one by more than 547 votes. i think there was a lot of agony for a lot of people. and it would've been a great partner with him for sure. it's interesting you think about it. whether your decision process was your own. you were considered someone that special to be a vice presidential nominee. as a it is a reflection on your service. full of consistency. and you happen to be a very popular senator in a really important state. no question about it. i've two more questions. there was a chapter in the book there was a chapter in the book in the prayer breakfast. describe to me how important that was in your life and how you moved towards it and how it became integral in your service. as you mentioned earlier. we are both catholic. i grew up as catholic. i was an altar boy. the spiritual religious perspective was always a part of me they were a leading force in what i was engaged in. i find myself in the senate. two of my good friends. a

connie: think the accusation of thank you's hearts. enters those of us who believe in the force and believe and in what we are doing and that we pursued a worthy profession and we were after we were trying to right the wrongs of the government or society, social ills, and we considered it an honorable profession. and even though others don't consider us pursuing an honorable profession, think there are plenty of reporters today, who are in still have that mindset. i mindset and credited there is a whole section of people who don't. and they engage in opinion in the engage in biased reporting. but honestly, mild friends, my old colleagues, the people that i knew, were honest people who are just pursuing the truth. tom: just the one thing, she's been very wise and eloquent but i guarantee, if anythin anybody i2 and treated connie the way that some of these fake news criers today, she would have flattened them. [laughter]. [applause]. tom: and do you have any final words. ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming. [applause]. connie: tom

think about it connie. in 2000, if you are the tickets, george 11 by more tha 547 votes >> for that story before. back. >> he would've saved a lotf agony for a lot of people. and you would've been a great partner with him for sure. to think about your decisio process was your own. for two election cycles in a row, you will consider somebody at special unit a vice esidential nominee, this reflection on your service which was full ointegrity. full of consistency and you happen to be, and veryopular senator and really imptant state. >> is a great life. there's no question about it . >> empty wl questions. one, thereas a chapter in the book about a breakfast. this a prayer breakfast. describe to me how important that was your life and howou kind of moved towards it and how it became interval in your service. >> were both catholic. so the group as a catholic. i was an altar boy. so spiritualeligious perspectives were always aart of me. but they want aeading force in when i was engaged in so i find myself in the

i'm-- i think-- i don'know if there was a before connie and an after connie moment, but most of my experiences wit you are that yo are just, you know, you're-- you have a relationship with a higher being that is werful. >> there's another aspect to it, but i appreciate you saying that. but the-- i think one of the most important things for each of us is to understan who we are, you know. lots of people have ideas about who we are, but it's really important to try to understand what it is that makes you tick. why do you do the things you do. who are you? and you know, and that makes a difference, but, you know under is calm and cool individual, there's a lot goi on, jeb. okay, that's good to ow. >> one final question and then we're going to open it up for questions, is the book reads in some ws like a love story. it's a romantic love story. how is priscilla doing? >> well, thank you for asking about her? very, very special, she's gone throh some tough years, the last five, six, seven years, medical issues, and her back and i severe pain. she's worked through all of that. we have found procedure

i don't know if there was a before connie and after connie moment, but most of my experiences with you are that you are just you know you have a relationship with a higher being that is powerful. >> there's another aspect to it. .com. i appreciate you saying that. i think one of the most important things for each of us is to understand who we are. lots of people have ideas about who we are, but it's really important to try to understand what it is that makes you tick, what you do the things you do, who are you? and that makes a difference. under this calm and cool individual there's a lot going on, jeb. >> that's good to know one final question and then we will open it up for questions to the book reads in some ways like a love story, a romantic love story. how is priscilla doing? >> thank you for asking about her. she's going through some tough years you know the last five, six, seven years medical issues with her back in severe pain, but she has worked through all of that. we have found procedures that address that pain and she has come back strong. she had two cases of meningitis if

. >>> and i see connie ford. would you like to come up and present? thank you, chair ronan and supervisors. my name is connie ford. the first thing i want to say is i highly recommend win mah. she is exemlary in exemptlary. in the bierpg o beginning of the 20th century, this country made a good decision to decide to include education, k-12 for every citizen in the country. that was really a wonderful thing. during a lot of that time, if you got a high school degree, you had access to the path into middle class, working class jobs so you can thrive. in the last couple of decades, things have changed. and now that is not adequate. you get a high school degree and it doesn't mean much. you need to go on. and so the -- so that's really what started the whole discussion of free city. and president obama started it during his term in 2015, saying that he thought everybody should have access to a free community college. and then a few states took that up. tennessee, portland, oregon, and minnesota, i think, and it was at that time that we at san francisco st

i wanted ask something to the point about life for connie. because she really, one of the things about them that perhaps is different from now is this was at the dawn of the let women in age. in 1972 saw the arrival of three people. one, and absolutely sightless correspond as cbs2 was just marvelous especially in new hampshire and laid at the convention, michele clark who was lost in a plane crash the last year. >> she was african-american, and when i was hired the equal employment opportunities commission was pretty great pressure on networks to hire women and minorities. and so cbs news, which was into the end of fall years, and still kind of is -- [laughing] hired four women in one fell swoop, and black woman, michele clark. me, a chinese person. lesley stahl, a nice jewish girl with blonde hair, and sylvia chase, i should start with blonde hair. [laughing] >> it looks like one of those tickets in the old new york democratic party for you. you had one of everything. that was one of the woman, a third woman that you're in 1972 who broke thr

i think connie has more perspective than i do. i lost you a little bit there and then we bend over backwards. >> but honestly when you are a normal reporter we all want to be fair. and then to push our personal bias out of the way and at that time with what spiro agnew said we tried very hard just to be objective. we are all products and to be subjective and we try not to be. i didn't know many nixon or agnew people. after the first speech and build from the grave. arguing about who wrote it. but then to come up with other phrases and that this is more of a game than something serious. and that is bending over backwards and tough as possible and then to be on the campaign trail with this intermediary layer and not getting from the news and in the intermediary. in the newsroom and for those are on the front lines following the campaign. but as a consumer this is what i like. take a 24 hour period. get it all to streams of events and the thing that has the circle with the lines in it that he could only write 150 words or something.

connie chung, last but not least, so delighted connie chung has come down from new york to join us. a true pine or, only the second female coanchor to coanchor a network newscast as part of cbs evening news. also an anchor and reporter for nbc, abc, cnn and msnbc. that is in demand. timothy crouse said that connie chung disrupted the cluby mail world of the boys on the bus by always showing up ill prepared, bright and early with microphone ready and never hung over. >> never what? >> never hung over. >> right. >> a real advantage. >> i will tell you about that. >> any way. if you could tell us briefly how you came to be on the campaign in 72. >> given most of my career since that date, i joined in 1960 out of columbia journalism school at the tampa bureau three days after i was assigned there a spot opened up in the new orleans bureau. i figured new orleans has to be more interesting than tampa. i didn't know they were about to desegregate the schools there and for the next three years i covered a lot of desegregation, mostly the end of it that was legal. in june of 1963, a brief te

connie, we'll see the airing of the interview sunday. acknowledging it is the president and not "60 minutes" breaking with precedent. could "60 minutes" have handled this differently or do you think they were best, following usual practices? >> clearly this was not leslie's decision. as a correspondent, we all will weigh in but it is the management's decision of what to do. we used to call them the suits, you know, and whatever the suits decide is what's going to happen. i heard yesterday when you were interviewing bill carter of "new york times," he used to be the media person, he said he did not understand why cbs didn't release it because it is news and that it could clearly effect the debate that's coming up. in other words, what was it that caused the president to walk out on the interview. i think i would have released it because both the white house and cbs seem to be playing a game of chicken. we have nothing to hide. you know we as reporters and the media have nothing to hide. why not just put it out. but it is a management deci

before we get to this connie bernard thing.board member seen online shopping at the meeting. i have to ask you about your passionate plea to rename the school. you suggested that to other names of prominent black leaders from the state, why is it so important to do right, right now? >> i think as long as we have monuments to white supremacy we are walking backwards as a country. it's not enough to wake up and know barack obama and michelle obama lived in the white house. we need to know that there were people centuries ago that were advocating for us and doing things. and the truth is, the folks th got elected in the 1800s, were the impotus of the jim crow laws. they put laws in place that prevented that progress for 150 years. and then they began to honor those people by naming buildings and in baton rouge, we have entire streets and subdivisions named after the people. you know, we are either going to be progressive and move forward or be like connie, don and scroll on the internet and pretend it's not happening while peopler

[laughter] started to hone in awkwardly making passes in connie's direction. i was struck first of all how calm and cool she was that she really didn't notice the guy. he did not understand and he kept circling again coming back. and finally he was coming back and i started to get up out of my chair to shoo him away but then connie gave him one of the most withering stairs i have ever seen in my life and said a line that has stayed with me forever. honey look you don't want to go to bed with me you will just be horny 20 minutes later.

how do we get beyond that and back to connie mack philosophy? >> again, there's a saying at alcoholics anonymous called -- this is one of those terrible moments when -- it's putting principle over personality. and so where i'm going with that, the two words i would use is right now there is hate dread on one side and there's anger on the other and everybody media outlet, including all of us that go around with an iphone that can either take pictures and send information, we're all focused on how much ager and hatred instead of talk putted what issues that are important to the country. as individuals we have a spent to look through what we're seeing and hearing from the media today and look at the issues that are facing the country whether that it broad economic issues or local issues in our communities. getting involved, by getting involved you'll change things and so i think lot of us need to quit getting focused on anger, hate and fear, and start talk about the issued that are important to us. >> you bring up a good point. we're a bottom-up co
