he ripped ali off.- he would argue that he made more money for ali than he ever could have ripped off the genius of staging these bouts in zaire and manila, that he made great fortunes for everyone involved. >> when we say of ali at one point that he was the most famous man on the planet, is that true or hyperbole on our sinatra. >> i think it's true. -- on our part? >> i think it's true. before the internet, he was the only guy you could see live around the world. used to talk about it, 17 billion people watching me. if you put them all in one place, that would stretch out over the course of three countries. he would go crazy. he loved thinking about how all these people were watching him at the same time. i think it's true. he was the most recognizable face in the world. >> yeah. what is to your mind after having done this book, his -- his abiding legacy? >> i think ali's legacy is that we have a responsibility to speak up to power, that we have a responsibility to be free and to fight for freedom. an

it isdo silent and then be audible gasp it is ali. then they start to change it. ali. ali. then we have forget it all of the horrible things he had said even if we thought he was a traitor. there his he is shaking he cannot light the torch the flame keeps leaking we are worried he cannot pull off and the crowd begins to rorer then he has rediscovered even the press coverage in next day he is the teddy bear. but we don't want to remember him as babette further the uh warrior that he was. but that is not why he matters today. not only to interview his wivess and brothers the have been working on this for more than three years before he passed away. i did meet his wife and they told her the same thing why they should talk to me. and i wanted this to be the book that the children and grandchildren would read. in said yes he should meet him. so i gotgr back i wrote lonnie a letter and in the my daughter to do was lie that the time after she could write a letter. and then said my daddy really loves you. do you love my daddy? [laughter] so i stick it in the envelopepe. and lonnie

that is a mohammed ali joke. it is important as a biographer to recognize you do not have much in common with your subject usually. the job of a biographer is to understand the subject the best you can, often from a distance. that means really paying attention to the facts, doing your research. i did 600 interviews with 200 individuals. i interviewed many of them over and over. i counted the number of times he was punched. i worked with speech scientists to look at how they affected his speech rate. i dove as deeply into his life as i could because the biographer's job is to help you understand a person's life and how it was shaped and how it shaped us as a country and the people. with mohammed ali, one of the most important men of the 20th century i would argue, was a huge responsibility. the really important piece of biographer has to keep in mind is empathy. you have to try to empathize with your subject. doesn't mean you have to always celebrated more excuse him. the job is not to glorify were pretty him up.

they decided to give ali a chance to fight.art because she showed she wanted to. >> ali would get check by neurology and she wouldn't have any reflexes. they had to talk with us about maybe withdrawing care. >> very next morning the girl walks in -- lady walks in to do reflex test again and ali kick her in the face. >> really? >> yup. >> reporter: it's now been over year since ali left the hospital and although she has a long journey ahead her parents are inspired every day by her fighting spirit. >> life is different. it really is. but we have her and she works hard every day to get her recovery as far as she can. >> reporter: turners also experienced how the overwhelming love and support ali received makes a major difference just fight is now a non-profit organization so that other families who hey mott have the type of support they received can still get what they need. >> whether it be the first week in the picu or two years down the line then need therapy equipment we want to be that foundation that can say, hey, you know,

ali is a slower fighter. i counted all the punches he took he probably took about 200,000 punches if you include his amateur fights but by this point he's actually training to take those punches. he believes he can build up resistance and nobody cannot come out. like calluses you taken a punches and you will be immune to a knockout. the left george foreman the strongest man in heavyweight boxing pound away at him until his arm start to get tired and then he begins to fight back. foreman told me that he believed he was drugged before that fight by his own manager. he also gave 25000 cash to make sure was a fair fight and later found out ali's people gave more than that. then this manager said that's ridiculous that's the stupidest thing i ever heard really give them 10000. >> take it for what you believe. but it beats george foreman and becomes the heavyweight champion and elisha calls him and says you've done it all it's time to retire. devote the rest you life to your religion family. after this he divorces

i'm ali velshi. all eyes on the white house awaiting white house press secretary sarah huckabee sanders to start today's briefing. the big questions likely about the latest details on the u.s. soldiers killed in niger and this eye-opening exchange between president trump and puerto rico governor ricardo row say rocello. pleading for equal treatment for all the ravaged u.s. territories including puerto rico and the u.s. virgin islands. >> with your commitment, and team support, mr. president, we will be able to come out of this together in the long haul together with puerto rico, give the citizens of puerto rico the adequate resources same as citizens in florida, texas and elsewhere and come out of this stronger. >> and a request, listen to the president's response. >> there has been corruption on the island and we can't have that. we're sending a lot of supplies. i know your folks are working 0en that very hard, but we just can't have it, when it comes to texas as an example and florida, you know how

for now, ali velshi from new york. >> good afternoon. i'm ali velshi. this hour the president presents the medal of honor to an army medic served during vietnam and saved numerous lives. this as the white house faces critical questions about the deaths of sour soldiers in niger, and the president also is facing scrutiny how he handled one death in particular. the death of la david johnson. johnson's widow myeshia spoke about his death and that phone call from the president. >> he couldn't remember my husband's name. the only way he remembered my husband's name, because he told me he had my husband's report in front of him. and that's when he actually said la david. i heard him stumbling on trying to remember my husband's name. and that was hurting me the most, because if my husband is out here fighting for our country and he risks his life for our country, why can't you remember his name? >> let's begin at the white house with nbc's hallie jackson. we heard from the president with singapore's prime minister a little while ago but he didn't take question

they closed the curtains and would not allow ali arkady they closed the curtains but allow ali arkadyy scene. at first ali arkady felt conflicted and he admits he obeyed commands by the unit's officers to strike detainees. but the more he saw, he realised he had to tell a different story. i did not have any option, to try to stop this violence, but i thought, in another way, i can, i try in the future to stop what these forces are doing for the civilians. and if i can get more evidence, approval, that i can show, maybe we can stop what they did. now in hiding following death threats to his family, he says his film has already produced results. the judges described his film as truly ground—breaking journalism. "ali couldn't challenge what he saw," they said, "all he could do was shoot the material and get it back." the winner of the news features award was olivier sarbil‘s film. the erstwhile children of saddam's iraq, now in the battle to save iraq. he lived alongside a unit of the iraqi special forces for five weeks as they pushed into isis territory. thejudges praised its raw emotio

it'll be difficult at this point, ali. not only because there are not a lot of fans of trump's proposal for a border wall, but the facts go against the need for one across the entire southern border. it's been pointed out by john kelly, former secretary of the department of homeland security, now chief of staff for president trump. the number one fact everybody should think about is apprehensions along the southern border. that's the measure of people actually crossing from this side, mexico, to this side in the united states. it's near historic lows right now. for fiscal year 2017, about to end next month, it could be an all-time record low for people crossing from mexico into the united states. donald trump is going to have to take all of that into account when he ultimately goes back and makes the final pitch, both to mexico and congress, to pay for the border wall. all he has now are these eight samples and it won't stop anyone, ali. >> i would assume the samples meet a standard, of not being able to climb over it and

back to you stephanie and ali. >> ali, you know, the president has said fake news, misinformation.ong tried to tell us it was misinformation. we were talking to our own teams on the -- >> i have to confirm the reporting that mariana and others have done for us is actually true. whether or not the federal government only is to blame or the puerto rican authorities shoulder some responsibility, it doesn't matter to that puerto rican particularly a rural puerto rican without power, medicine, water, and the ability to get gas and cash. >> and of course the president will be reminded there's not a they in this a case. it's an us. puerto rico, a u.s. territory. and soon we'll see president trump on the grount there. we don't know exactly where he'll go, but he will certainly see the real story. mariana, thank you. >>> iconic landmarks across the globe went dark overnight as a tribute to the victims of the mass shooting that took place here in las vegas. the empire state building switched off its lights leeing a rotating orange halo as a beacon shining a light on gun violence. >> in paris

ali reza tolu regularly meets with his daughter's lawyer.esale tolu's trial is set to begin on october 11th in istanbul. her lawyer is worried, because she says that right now judges are ruling largely in favour of the policies of turkish president recep tayyip erdogan. she can only shake her head at the charges against her client. in 2015, mesale tolu attended the funerals of two left-wing extremists belonging to the outlawed marxist-leninist communist party, who were killed by police in istanbul. the same year she also attended a memorial service for a member of the kurdish militia ypg who died in the fight against is in the same year she also attended syria. >> the events were an expression of freedom of speech. they took place under the supervision of turkish security authorities and ended peacefully. now they're being denounced as terrorist propaganda and attending them implies you belong to a terrorist organization. >> it's time for serkan to go back to his mother. ali reza tolu hopes his daughter will be released in october, after her

>> thanks for having me, ali. it's a concern for me as an american, it's a concern for me as the governor. let's remember, the people in puerto rico are americans. i was there the first day and now it's about five weeks later and it's amazing how little progress has been made. after one month, still have 75% or whatever figure you want to use without power. people who are drinking water that may be dangerous. so i believe that puerto rico has been treated as second-class citizens. we are better than this. we know how to do this. we do this all around the country, all around the world, and i think puerto rico deserved better response, faster response and more effective response, frankly. >> when you look at the recovery that is still undergoing in places because of sandy, in new york, you mentioned yesterday in puerto rico that there should be a rebuild that takes into account the fact that it's a place that another hurricane could hit. they had a weakened infrastructure and need to sort of get to a place that is b

go to ali arouzi in tehran. it's important to understand what the possible range of reactions could be from tehran. particularly since this wasn't a deal everybody in iran or everybody in the iranian government was, in fact, in favor of. there are risks that the iranians could react in a way that's detrimental as well. we've heard from hassan rouhani. how are iranians feeling about this? >> reporter: well, that's right. as you know, ali, there's two tracts here. there's hassan rouhani's government, more modern, open to tehran and the west, want better relations with the west and the world at large, and then you have the very hard-line elements in here, parts of the irgc and ruling elite here very hard-line. that are very, very skeptical of any relationships with america. now, they didn't necessarily -- weren't necessarily in favor of the deal, but right now they're not necessarily in favor of it falling apart, but if it does, they'll take it and they'll use that advantage. they'll use that advantage to clobber t

very quickly very down ali ali very quickly of course this is a time when you have now a growing nuclear crisis with iran but also one with north korea two growing emergence. yes and i think the effect of what president trump is doing with the iran deal is that the north koreans would look at the situation and they would say what's the point in dealing with the united states you know you agreed to give away most of your nuclear capabilities in return for sanctions relief that is much less than what has been promised then as soon as the administration changes washington goes back on its word and the size to negotiate another deal so i think the north koreans would have absolutely zero incentive to settle the current standoff with the united states in a diplomatic way well thank you very much to our guests three real experts on this subject early virus daryl kimball i'm a star for cautious chairman thank you two for watching you can find plenty more stories about the iran deal you can even watch this program again if you want on our web site al-jazeera dot com and if you have strong views

ali. >> casie, thank very much for that. casey hunt for us on capitol hill on the fast unfolding story. i want to bring steve kornacki in which i tried to do 34 minutes ago. and nothing has stopped since then. in the arizona republic, the interview -- i know that jeff flake has said a lot more since then. want to get your comments on that very emotional, detailed speech. he said here's the bottom line, the path i would have to travel to get the nomination is a path i am not willing to take and i cannot in good consciencic at that. in the end of his speech he said i will not be complicity or sigh lend. this is a reality that's facing jeff flake and other people. >> it is the reality facing every establishment republican. the path he is talking about is the path of trump im. he mentioned two specific issues. he mentioned immigration and he mentioned trade. that seems to be the fault line. that gets to a cultural demographic fault line that trump has brought to the fore in the republican party. the trump message in the republic

>> well, i think, ali, we'll look at that. i mean as they develop how this person got his firearms if there is a loophole or a problem or a an across state lines issue or an ammunition problem as well as mental health all that needs to be evaluated. and if there is a problem then it needs to be addressed. but we don't know that right now. when you talk about a premise that it is an existing law that's the problem you don't know that yet. so it's a little tough to have that discussion. >> why is it that we don't know that? i mean we reason is seen much out of congress following the shooting tragedies in orlando at the pulse nightclub, sandy hook elementary school, newtown, connecticut. and now here we are, i mean a gun man opened fire on 22,000 people and was able to fire off shots at such a rapid pace over 500 people were injured. that doesn't seem egregious to you? >> well, i think it does, stephanie, but the part you are leaving out is someone who would do that is not someone who is going to be deterred by an additional regu

. >>> i'm ali velshi. >> i'm stephanie ruhle. president trump calling for the biggest tax overhaul since the '80s, with a key vote in congress, republicans are poised to release the much anticipated tax bill. >> anticipated by us at least. the details are only starting to trickle out of capitol hill. already generating some debate. let's start there. >> the house followed the senate's lead and passed a budget resolution by a narrow margin earlier this week, with these votes in place, republicans can now get a tax bill through with just 50 votes in the senate, effectively sidelining democrats. but the math behind tax cuts that would add $1.5 trillion over the next ten years to the national debt will be difficult. some republicans are already saying they need to close $4 trillion worth of loopholes to make things work for them. so slashing the taxes on businesses will need to be offset somehow as will eliminating the estate tax. both are pillars of president trump's tax plan. ali, we understand the argument for tax cuts for busines

let's go to ali aruzi. pretty frightening times since this developed, ali, what do you know? >> reporter: that's right, alex. at about 2:20 local time, about 9:00 eastern, a car careened off the pavement, off the road into the pavement, crashing into several people. we don't know how many people were hit and how many people have been taken to hospital or the extent of their injuries, but we know this car crashed into a bunch of people. let me set the scene for you there, alex. this is an area called south ken kensington. there's several museums there. on a saturday afternoon in london, this will be teeming with people. families will come, groups will come, many with children, to visit the museums. it's on a major thoroughfare in london. if you follow the road, it depose to heathrow airport. in the opposite direction it goes to the famous harrod's shopping store and there are multimillion pound houses in this area. that's why it's made people very nervous very quickly because we've seen a number of these sort of attacks in london over the course of this year involving cars on

the why, to answer your question, ali, is still illusive. >> yeah. it's so strange. this far after an event not to have more clues as to why. i know you and other members of the team are working on it. pete williams thank you for that. >> this bump shots, what is the rationale behind why they're even available? >> we talk about how you can't buy a machine gun in america if you're not law enforcement or military. but this essentially makes it into one. we can stop calling it a machine gun. we haven't been doing that but it's the idea that you press the trigger once and that's the bump stock and it uses the recoil of the gun to cause the next shot to happen. >> what's the argument for why the common person should be able to purchase this? >> that's a good question. there are arguments why there should be higher capacity magazin magazines, why there should be stronger guns and a lot of it comes from hunting. but nobody hunts with a fully automatic weapon. >> this is what i don't understand. >> this is part of the discussion that we need to have. some people say it's not

i'm a big fan of ali smith, especially the way she writes.our times and has never won until 110w. four times and has never won until now. i can't help wondering, if she did win tonight, would it be a case of right author, wrong but? is this her best? i don't think it is, and i see that with a degree of reservation because i love the book andi reservation because i love the book and i think it's a terrific achievement, considering she wrote it in about eight months or less. i think it is beautifully lyrical. it is perhaps not the crowning achievement of her career, but i think there are echoes of her previous work in there, so she would bea previous work in there, so she would be a worthy winner. it is beautifully written. another topical book is exit west by mohsin hamid. he was short listed ten years ago. this is a book about refugees and migration, and people move around the globe through a series of mysterious black doors, some degree of magical realism here. did that work? i think the magic realism is the least successful part of the nove

ali arouzi is in tehran. i imagine that the iranians are deeply unhappy about this. >> reporter: that's right, katie. that would be an understatement. they are very, very upset about this. they were anticipating it. there were anxious apprehension amongst ordinary iranians who were hoping to see the fruits of the nuclear deal. but the regime was anticipating this. they've been talking about this for days. there's been a big buildup here today. the president of iran is due to give a speech any moment now to address what president trump just said. but the revolutionary guard have come out firing. if there was any encroachment on them, if they're labeled a terrorist organization, if there are sanctions, their response would be crushing. a senior commandser from the guards came out today and said we've buried many like trump. we'll bury them again and we're used to fighting america and we'll defeat them. this is language that we hadn't haef heard for a while. the iranians feel they needs to ratchet things up and

today i rise for my constituent, ali. because we should not be playing politics in congress with women's health choices and with the family decision making rights of all americans. last spring ali and her husband were thrilled to learn that she was pregnant with their second child. a few months later they found themselves heartbroken in the doctor's office, in order to terminate a pregnancy that they had so badly wanted. everything had gone smoothly until about 12 weeks when a routine test returned with extremely abnormal results. ali and her husband hoped for the best and waited several more weeks until they could perform an annio. the results were unbearable. they found that the fetus had grown from a compromised cell line. there were multiple genetic anomalies that would result if the pregnancy continued to term and a child with physical, cognitive and developmental problems. the news was crushing and the decision agonizing. but ali knew the path forward for her family was clear. she would become part of the tiny group
