arianna huffington, are we a sleep-deprived nation? >> guest: we are. there's a real crisis of sleep deprivation, and it's affecting every aspect of our lives.ev it's affecting our health, first of all, with an incredible cost in terms of our health care provision but also in terms of how we feel about our life. because we now know through this amazing new finding of sleep science that literally sleep deprivation is affecting every aspect of our health from obesity and diabetes to cancer and heart disease, and now we find out alzheimer's. because what we've learned in the recent years is that contrary to what was believed, sleep is a time of frenetic activity for the brain. that's when all the toxins accumulated in the day get washed out and cleaned up. and if that doesn't happen, the consequences are dire. so my hope with this book is to help shift the culture and give ourselves permission to do what nature intended, which is for the majority of us according to all scientists to get 7-9 hours of sleep. there's a tiny percentage who are known as short s

(laughter) okay. okay. all right. okay. for our home audience, okay, i know the word is blurred for you guys, so let me just tell you, but it rhymes with "lock." it starts with a "c." and it is [bleep], okay. so the word, the word is [bleep], is what it is. that's right, c

(laughter) >> trevor: i like that you're on brand. when you start a conversation about sleep, for most people, this is not what you would write a book about. most people read books to fall asleep, and you have written a book about sleep. the sleep revolution, in fact. >> i would actually consider it a personal victory if you are reading my book in bed and you fell asleep reading it. (laughter) >> trevor: i like that you use "revolution," though, because it seems like the opposite word for "sleep." like a very sleepy revolution. i'll do it tomorrow. >> no, when the revolution succeeds, it will actually be amazing because right now we're living under the collective delusion that sleep deprivation is essential for suc

joining me today on studio 1.0, arianna huffington. cofounder of "the huffington post." hank you so much for being here. ms. huffington: thank you for having me. emily: verizon which owns aol and the huffington post say they will bid for yahoo!. do you believe verizon has a longtime content strategy that include yahoo! and the huffington post and if so, what is it? ms. huffington: verizon has decided, and that is, of course, the reason why they bought "the huffington post," that the future for them has to include a very robust media technology company. yahoo! would fit very well in the strategy. there is competition. so there is software and maybe google, so we will see what happens. emily: what are the synergies you see with verizon and the huffington post? ms. huffington: verizon has huge distribution potential for us, especially since we are moving more and more into video. they have launched go 90 which is their mobile video play and has produced and paid for great content from many providers. so this is fantastic for us, because it gives us great distribution. emily:

when you look at founder, arianna huffington, she made it very clear, she has editor's disclaimer talking about the fact that donald trump is serial liar or rapist and plus, on msnbc arianna, said connection with clinton foundation, that whole issue quote, unquote, doesn't matter. there is clearly a bias from the top down. i think it is very reflective how the coverage is in the "huffington post." deirdre: it is indeed. i want to ask you about another controversy. this one surrounds a documentary, this is about gun violence. news anchor katie couric, she picked up the bulk of price of production, she and her producer faced criticism for heavy editing. she has since made a statement, quote, i take responsibility for a decision that misrepresented an exchange i had with members of the virginia citizens defense league when i was screened an early version of the film with the director, stephanie, i questioned her and the editor about the pause. i was told that a beat was added for, as she described it, dramatic effect. i went back, reviewed it and agreed those eight seconds do not accurately
