elizabeth macdonald reports on the new fbi high alert, we are not out of the woods.t may be a target ourselves. >> that is right, neil. a state of heightened alert. there is talk in the agency of fears and concerns about a potential terrorist attack over the holiday season. they are prepared. there is no specific threat as of this moment. talking about individual foot traffic where a lot of people go. they are talking about football stadiums, shopping malls, restaurants. we know the giants stadium had heightened security. the other thing they're talking about, too, the training that is going on preparing for various scenarios. after the mom by 2008 attack where people were killed and more than 300 wounded here and that took 10 militants over four days to execute 12 coordinated attacks. they are basically training for that kind of scenario, neil. they are working also with local police and fire department officials. the nci has about 10,000 cases of domestically and internationally terrorism cases. they charged 60 u.s. citizens here. basically being sympathetic with i

charlie gasparino and elizabeth macdonald. charlie: not sort of scripted.ing about your issues. your private issues. drug addiction has touched everyone. it is an issue. my one critique of this is when it becomes scripted. here is where they are missing the voter. the american voter right now, particularly the republican voter, is worried about the future. worried about jobs. worried about the economy. believe that the economy has been ran by the committed aggressive, which he is, president obama. they want somebody who is tough. that, i think, underscores the appeal to donald trump. i will come near and i will fix it. you do not see much in voting from donald. liz: i think people want a leader. they want to vote someone that has legislative authority. people do want to be able to identify with the humanity of the struggles here. really, it comes down -- this is not about character or trustworthiness. this is about, from the candidates part, to reach out and get the voters to identify with them. people right now want a leader. they want someone who leads th

elizabeth macdonald. i think isis investigations that are going on. what are they about?they are in all 50 states. four dozen. about 50 of them are considered really big cases that while more monitoring and more surveillance. you know, that is what we are hearing from law-enforcement. there is concerns for copycat killers. there is no connection between any activity here in the united states. more worried about long wolf attacks from people that have been radicalized over the internet to be sent to isis. also coming out with really interesting statements. none of these that he has found want to be seen as aiding and abetting psychotic killers. they are saying that there really is no technical obstacle with these companies and giving law enforcement what they need. he said it is more about their own business model. also loretta lynch weighing in there. twitter and facebook have been very helpful with regards to alleged terrorist supporters. the conversation between silicon valley and law-enforcement are becoming even more productive. they get what they want via a court ord

elizabeth macdonald has this story. liz: smart tvs watching what you are watching.king at you sitting on your couch. youtube videos. anything you watch. what happens is when you buy one, from lg or samsung, your software is turned off. it does not track it. visio product is saying the software has are ready turned on by default. it is already spying on you whenever you turn on the tv. you have to opt out. the fact that this is going on is so serious. it takes your internet address and it adds to your smart phone device. that is why it is a big deal. the privacy laws have not caught up here. we wonder when regulators will step up and do that. stuart: very good. thank you very much. reporting about bacon causing cancer. it could have a climate agenda. just a small section of that. the cancer warning. it seems particularly well-timed. we have a good writer joining us now. a much bigger agenda behind this. the production is causing climate change. if you eat these needs, you'll get cancer. >> right. that is what it looks like. a report earlier this year. physically targ

this is based on our reporting by elizabeth macdonald.uld the fbi be doing in focusing on the 50 people, something that was-- that maria asked earlier, but i think that that might give people in this country even greater confidence in our law enforcement. >> well, law enforcement is doing everything they can and the fbi, within their counterterrorism buros and-- bureaus and dealing with physical surveillance and electron electronic surveillance. and we can look at france prior to the day of the attack, where there was no credible threat in the attack. because the individuals involved in the attack hadn't raised their profile to this level. at some point we need to have that addressed on the individual citizen level being aware and having focus and seeing what's going on around us and setting ourselves up for success to be able to deal with it when it happens. >> matthew, thank you, thank you for your insight this morning. we'll see you soon. >> the radisson blu hotel saying that 124 guests and 13 staff members are still inside the hotel b
