henry smith. john the nba says they want donald sterling to sell the team. is it going to happen? >> well, adamilver is take this personally. >> i am personally distraught that the viewed expressed by mr. sterling came from within, an institution that has historically taken such a leadership role in matters of race relations, and caused current and former players, coaches, fans, and partners of the nba so question their very association with the league. >> all right. so del, two things seem to need to happen to force this sale. number one, 22 of the 29 other nba owners have to vote to approve this sale, and by adam silver's remarks yesterday, it seems he feels he already has that support, and they have to weather the storm if donald sterling decides to fight this in court. >> and that's the question everybody is asking right now is will he fight? >> he is a lawyer by trade. he spent the better part of his adult life in various courtrooms either trying cases or defending himself in other cases, one in discrimination in a renting lawsuit. he also has owned this team for 34 years, so i would say i

henry waxman is delivering his opening statement in today's hearing over the gm safety recalls. we expect to hear from gm's ceo mary barra and we will bring that to you live. staying with us is adamitt, one of the lawyers involved in a class action against general motors over the faulty key system. i want to read you a little from msnbc.com. there's additional documents that show a gm engineer actually approved ignition switch changes. this internal document which was obtained by nbc news shows that a general motors engineer signed off on a change to ignition switches in cars that have now been recalled, even though he testified last year he was not aware of the change and didn't remember approving the change. how extensive do you think the duplicity, i guess you could call it, has been among general motors representatives, people who have been charged with giving information to capitol hill and to regulators about the state of these cars? >> i think what i've seen so far has been a very carefully worded, carefully staged practice of the new ceo, ms. barra, fall on her sword as often as possible but also very carefully saying what people were and were not aware of. i think that w
