bbc's eileen the has this report -- >> the town of ferguson has come together in a case that's had reverberations across america. there's not just sorrow, but outrage. michael brown, who was 18, had been unarmed. police said he tussled with an officer over a weapon. eyewitnesses say he had his hands raised. police say shortly before michael brown was shot dead, this happened. it appears to show a man handling a store worker, then stealing cigars. police later admitted the officer that killed him didn't know michael brown was suspected of robbery at the time it happened. after days of pressure, that officer was named. >> the officer that was involved in the shooting of michael brown was darren wilson. he's been a police officer for six years. has had no disciplinary action taken against him. he was treated for injuries which occurs on saturday. >> it's a travesty. my cousin was murdered, he was executed. we're just tired and we want peace in the community and we want justice to be served. >> hand up, don't shoot, the slogan that's come to symbolize this case. americans were shocked further in rece

. >> ellenwood says designers like eileen fisher that produce their own fabrics often get a better result. >> it's thinner than the double night ponty. it has a lot of elasticity to it. >> to protect your wardrobe there are some tools that can help. we used a sweater block, something called a gleaner, even a fine tooth comb to try and pull away the pills, but by far this electric fabric defuzzer worked the best. >> reporter: i think you're restoring my dress. >> aren't you happy? >> reporter: yes. once you remove the pills take a close look at your closet. make sure to store your dresses with enough space between them. if they're packed in too tightly, that, too, can cause the fuzzies to come back. we reached out to all the designers of my dresses. representatives for amy amy motto -- amy mat toe new york. they offered to replace the dresses with problems. ray feinberg told me they also test their materials and admit there just will be some pilling but avoid using strong chemicals to keep them clean. all the pilling on my dresses occurred before they were laundered. to show you the differ

eileen far lan is a infectious disease specialist. we know you have not seen dr. brantly, but as a specialist you know a lot about this. give us a sense. when you saw that video of dr. brantly walking on his own out of the ambulance into the hospital, what did that tell you about his current condition? >> well, i was very encouraged to see that. hopefully it means he's well on the way to recovery. he's apparently been infected as early as a week or more ago. this must mean that he's in fairly stable condition that he's able to walk. it is an infection with very high mortality. so it's important to remember that although this particular strain can cause 80% mortality, some people do survive. >> we know there's no vaccine. we've heard talk about a serum, that there's one serum on the ground there. and the missionary we're waiting on her arrival back in the u.s. took that serum. what is the course of treatment at this point? >> right. so for her, it's important to remember that that serum is experimental. and theoretically, it should give an advantage to help to clea

and i really hope that you will go and read more about them in books like eileen wellsome's book.jonathan marino has a book on the experiments, the human irradiation experiments. it has a lot more detail. one of the lessons is that medicine and the quest for knowledge has to be looked at in the specific social, and economic context. it just can't be understood if you take it out of the context. these radiation experiments started in the context of a world war, and continued by and large in the context of a cold war, which turned quite hot on occasion. which was characterized by secrecy, which was characterized by fear that these weapons could be used against us. nonetheless, some of the features that came out of these experiments continue to this day. the penchant for large-scale research, for big research, for the idea that if you want to do a big project, that you can get government funding to do huge, big protocols. even smaller scale protocols have a lot to do with the era that this comes out of. the idea of doing studies that go across several different hospitals, for example

eileen melson breaks the story. decades. and there are many cases the one that is -- that is the most analogous to the iraqi war would be the vietnam war. i have a chapter on that which kind of comes right after the prologue. and, of course, you look at the reception. we basically were provoking in instigating and invading the air, water, and land ruffian on for months before they attacked us. they get a resolution for war. basically the defacto equivalent within six days. there are only two dissenting u.s. senators. that became the declaration of war. the truth of all when was it officially, formerly emerging? 1971. think of this. we have operation rolling thunder in 64. the early part of 64. in the fall of 64 lyndon johnson is left with the landslide. one of my key close, will never go nine dozen miles to be in them. anyway, some he lied. he was planning everything and just said. these are examples. there are all listed in carefully analyzed, tobacco, the first city in the world of tobacco the was conclusive, notable, and

contributor and managing editor of post politics.com and "the new york times" pentagon correspondent eileenper. thank you both very much. krirks this has become, as is everything, so politicized. the people have been criticizing the president for not doing enough, not getting involved now that he is getting involved, they are taking shots at him. how does he find his way through this. >> politically speaking, it's virtually impossible. that has almost nothing to do really with his party. any president, i think, given what we know about the american public, would struggle with this. the american public is supportive of sort of a humanitarian aid avoiding a genocide. they are in favor of intervening in those circumstances but it's a very narrow definition of intervention. both times the president has spoken publicly about this in the last five or six days he's reiterated there will be no u.s. troops. no u.s. troops. because he knows there's zero appetite for american forces elsewhere. he was elected at least in part on ending the wars in iraq and afghanistan. so from a political point of view

eileen, thank you for joining us. give us the buzz around buzzfeed.an washington post" and "the l.a. times"? >> a number of reasons. there were lots of rumors that disney was close to paying upwards of $1 billion last year. legitimately because of how much attention it gets from its audience. it has 150 million unique visitors every month. it does roughly about 120 million people in revenues. drives it is the demographic between 18-25-year-olds. and how much time they are spending on the site. you make a comparison to traditional media companies. "the new york times" is valued at about half of that business. in addition to being news or coverture content, people are valuing it like a technology company. >> that seems to be the secret. no matter what business you are in, if you get yourself a year as a technology business, you get those high valuations. [laughter] it relies on social media networks to get in front of people, to get in front of people. facebook and others. is that a strength to the business model or a hindrance? >> i think is a little b
