but as ben was talking, i was thinking, ben, you sound as crazy as the leader of north korea. actually sitting here saying that the ceo of sony is responsible for fighting terrorist threats? let's keep in mind that sony -- hold on a second. well, but -- but this is a terrorist threat, guys. where the north koreans have made not an irrational decision, a very calculated one. that moves and works to their strategic advantage to keep their country isolated, to make the leader look like he is a feared dictator that the u.s. will bow down to. it plays right down into his strategic hand and when this happens to sony, the white house didn't step in. the media was more focused on the salacious details of the e-mails instead of defending and calling out this terrorist attack for what it was and i think it's ridiculous to say that -- >> hold on ben. >> -- that sony is the one that needs to fight this. >> ben, before you jump in, let me bring in gordon chang, too, as part of this discussion. and let me ask you this. how would hollywood have reacted, gordon, before 9/11, because it change

in the ben ali era, there were five television stations today there were 17.y are owned by political parties and businessmen with close ties to the parties. >> to deal with that the government set up a new regulator, the high-end authority. it set new recommendations for media coverage during the electoral campaign but struggled to assert authority. two of the three privately owned channels refused to comply with the new regulations and are, in effect operating without licences. >> translation: it's not hiker against journalists or freedom of speech. that's not what we are about. this is between a minority of media owners that had privileges during the rein of ben ali and wanted to act outside the regulatory framework. >> ostensibly the conflict boils down to money, influence and what many see as a sense of entitlement of media that exists under ben ali. hiker says it's trying to separate media and politician by removing the money. they can't own, fund or advertise on television. in an election year politicians need it. in the new commercially driven market th

while there are many men and women women ben made a public statement and he and elevated this issue and in fact one that is so pervasive that there's a consensus not even subconscious often talked about on daily talk shows that harassment is not a big deal in fact women who raise their voice and speak out against sexual discrimination are over reacting woman are told that cat calls are seen as compliments and we should be flattered and even when this flatter y is degrading. i remember i was no more than 11 years old and it continued throughout middle and high school and i remember not being able to understand why men spoke to me when i clearly was not of age to be listening to be listening to those types of comments. and it impacts every single female friend that i had. ben called this reaction what it was sexist and critics wondered why he chose to go back to retrieve his wallet they claimed this would not have happened if he had just gotten a cab but people are missing the point every human being regardless of whether they are a man or woman should be able to walk on the city streets

i spent some time with ben garner, eric's father, who is in unspeakable pain. and it's a very hard thing to spend time trying to comfort someone you know is beyond reach of comfort because of what he has been through. i can only imagine, i couldn't help but immediately think what it would mean to me to lose dante. life would never be the same after. things will never be whole again for mr. garner. even in the midst of his pain one of the things that he said so squarely was there can't be violence. eric would not have wanted violence. violence won't get us anywhere. he was so sharp and clear in his desire in spite his pain, i found it noble. i can only imagine what it took for him to summen that. no family should have to go through what the garner family has had to go through. the tragedy is personal to this family, but it has become something personal to so many of us. it has put in stark perspectives relationships between police and community, issues come to the fore again. we have to dress them. we have to dress them with all of our might. we can't stop them.

they'll force you offer onto the ben franklin parkway.river drives if you're trying to get west. if you're trying to get east i would bail pretty early on your journey on the westbound vine and start using the city streets to work your way, maybe south street. of course we'll continue to watch that situation. we're also watching flooding by rosemont college along montgomery avenue right by ithan avenue. stay up on old gulph road or down on 30 lancaster avenue to get around that. on the pennsylvania turnpike eastbound side just past fort washington there's a crash. vehicle favoring the wrong way but the good news is it's all off to the side so the lanes are opened and in cupsville. the police are directing you around. that what is santa's favorite exit on the schuylkill expressway, yes, indeed it's the cons ho ho ken. schuylkill looks okay at this point. no words. >> i needd that. thank you. >>> a car crashed into a home in chester and police think it was because the driver was focused not on the road but rather on trying to shoot out of t

ben carson is here with me this hour. we have lots of questions for him from ferguson to immigration to president obama, a whole lot more. we'll get his take. >>> hello. i i'm wolf blitzer. wherever you're watching from around the world, thanks very much for joining us. let's begin with the tensions in ferguson, missouri, and an apology from the stepfather of michael brown. louis head now says he's sorry for his outburst after learning that the police officer, darren wilson, would not be indicted for killing michael brown. the ferguson police chief says authorities are investigating whether head intended to start a riot when he said this -- >> burn this bitch down! burn this bitch down! burn this bitch down! >> [ bleep ]. >> in a statement obtained exclusively by our don lemon, head blamed the outburst on raw e estimations but he said it's wrong to blame him for the looting and arson that erupted. head also said, quote, i screamed out words i shouldn't have screamed in the heat of the moment. it was wrong and i humbly apo

. >> to discuss, let me bring in ben ferguson, cnn political commentator and host of "the ben ferguson show" and maria cardona, cnn political commentator and democratic strategist. maria, let me start with you. does it seem too soon, maria, to make a comment like that? that we have 1,750 troops in iraq, defense secretary hagel says we're sending 1300 more. is the president speaking out too soon on this? >> i suppose it's always a risk to make that kind of statement but i think the president was speaking to i think the talent and the sacrifice of our men and women in uniform who have spent more than ten years focused on making america safer and so i think in that context he has a right to be applauding the troops that have been essentially putting in blood and treasure and americans are a war-weary country. it was something he promised to do during his campaign and it's something that he has now accomplished that frankly our troops have accomplished. so i think the focus is on turning over a country to the afghans, who are the ones who now have to have responsibility for that and the tr
