do you believe that julian?> we've taken security precautions to ensure i'm not in danger, or our other volunteers or employees. there was a period early on where some private signals coming out of the u.s. administration were not too pleasant. the public messages were not so bad. there does people to be a mergener the private and public rhetoric. so what we're hearing now, at least last week, just before this material came out is a bit more reasonable. we're having quite a few surveillance events. there was according to a canberra national times report and a former diplomat, a request by the united states, formal request by the government of australia to try and seize or aggressively investigate us in australia, that our request was largely rejected. so there is some sort of significant pressure coming on us as an organization. however, i think it's being seen now in part from statements like the one from daniel that it is not politically feasible to interfere with us at a high level. >> could i comment on that

the problem is, the workers forgot about him and julian missed his connection. to make matters worse he's a vegetarian and he was only given a hamburger to eat. united says it will reimburse the parents the child-care fee. >>> we now turn to money and some special guests at the new york stock exchange. nbc bay area's business and tech reporter, scott bud man is here with that story. >> reporter: wall street can be a place of harsh reality. so who better to ring in the new trading day than starless of a reality tv show. ringing the bell that help to make new york famous, some of the people making new jersey famous. that's the cast of "jersey shore" showing off their tans at the new york stock exchange. their appearance worked well. they have lots of confidence, but consumer confidence is down because of job concerns. that kept stocks in a narrow range today. dow up, nasdaq lower. a big deal going down linking silicon valley to the happiest place on earth and disney said it will buy the social gaming startup said to be woirt $563 million puts disney smack in the v

country that publishes information that governments don't want seen and of course this is part of julian's mission that's you know his entire quest in life is to eliminate bad governance and hold corporations and governments accountable for violations of human rights and other so-called human rights abuses he essentially runs this entire website from his backpack he's always on the move when we had him here in our studios a few months ago when the collateral murder video came out he went straight into the green room and started doing all of the work on you know we can weeks and it didn't didn't waste any time with that and so the web site and this entire new i guess a rino of journalism really rests on him and being able to evade governments that are after him in a few minutes the authorities in russia who are almost literally on a witch hunt. the law is aimed as an article printed in magazines like this one which is called oracle and it is literally chock full of people who claim to begin to heal or tell the future using mystical abilities. reports on rusher is predicting the end of the l

[applause] not to tell stories out of school, but when i first got sworn in and thought i knew a few things, we sat there, myself, sophie and gavin, we voted over and over, and we weren't going anywhere. mayor brown gave me no plan b, so i kept voting that way. mayor brown doesn't tell you plan b, you have to stick with plan a, which is what i was smart enough to do. but one challenge that exists for our city to think about as we celebrate accomplishments is that san francisco cannot be a great city without strong black leadership, and it has dwindled in the past

wikileaks founder julian assange could soon find himself at the heart of a criminal investigation. >> the battlefield consequences of the release of these documents are potentially severe and dangerous. >> reporter: defense secretary robert gates hasn't ruled out asang could be a target after his website posted more than 70,000 secret papers. gates has asked the director of the fbi to join the investigation. the army is also trying to track down whoever downloaded the afghanistan war documents. officials are looking closely at private bradley manning, who's been charged with leaking other materials to wikileaks. the 2 2-year-old is being proved from a prison in kuwait to a brig at quantico. he says he didn't put anyone in danger by leaking the document. top military officials say that's not the case. >> they might already have on their hands the blood of a young soldier or that of an afghan family. >> reporter: along with exposing military tactics, they show the names of afghan informants. their lives are in danger. >> will people whose lives are on the line trust us to keep their ide

>> well, the founder of wikileaks is a man named julian assan. he's 39 years old, an australian, and he heralded letting out all the documents at the beginning of the week. he was questioned about it when it came forward that there were names of afghans in there who he had said that they had gone through the documents and they had taken out. well, in fact, you can't go through 90,000 documents and take it out. and he basically said that it was collateral damage. i think he said it on "the today show," that it was collateral damage. and he started blaming the military for perhaps a misclassification of the documents. but i can tell you, all of those documents that named afghans said "secret" on them. so they were not misclassified by the military. now, private first class bradley manning is accused of leaking a combat camera video a couple of months ago in may that showed an apache helicopter, i believe it was, with hell fire missiles killing a reuters cameraman. two reuters cameramen, i believe. so he is charged with that. the man who turned him

you say more than ninety thousand documents is something quite extraordinary what happened was that julian assange the founder of wiki leaks released this information ahead of time to three nice papers one here in london the guardian one in germany and also to the new york times they then looked at that information and assessed what they wanted to write about and whether the information was genuine and he then held a media conference. and talked about it and one of the things that he said was he was pressed by journalists on war crimes whether he thought there was evidence of war crimes hair and eventually he said that he felt that it was for a cool it's of course to decide what constitutes a war crime and whether this did but he's looking at the documents that he has seen felt that there was evidence of war crimes having been committed during this war some of these documents are about civilian deaths going on reported. to pick out one that says that he. was difficult to do that he said it's the continuing. war that we don't necessarily know about when you read about him in these places th

the two sailors, members of a team training afghans, left their base at camp julian near kabul in an s.u.v. for the relatively short drive to camp eggers. yet their badly shot-up vehicle was found 80 miles south of kabul. why they strayed so far and why they drove into taliban- controlled territory by themselves-- a blatant violation of security procedures-- remain unknown. a statement posted on a taliban web site said they ambushed the s.u.v. in an attempt to capture the sailors alive. when the two men fought back, the taliban opened fire, killing one, but capturing the other alive. the only other american serviceman known to be in enemy hands is specialist bowe bergdahl, who walked away from his outpost 13 months ago and has since been seen only in taliban videos. >> i'm scared. i am scared i won't be able to go home. >> reporter: cbs newsman jere van dyk, who was held captive by the taliban for 45 days, can tell you exactly what it feels like. >> you are constantly afraid the door is going to open up, and then that door is going to be a man with a black turban, and he is going to

the head of wikileaks, 39-year-old australian julian assange, who has been outspoken against the war, told "the today show" he blamed the military. >> every week, another 100 or so people are killed in afghanistan and that number is increasing. so, we shouldn't let these rumors about whether there are additional names in there or not, which may be serious or may not be, eclipse the bigger problem. >> amateurs like wikileaks either don't care or don't know how to protect sources and how to protect lives. >> reporter: the pentagon is going through all of the documents, as well, and local commanders will certainly try to do what they can to help those afghans who are at risk. but diane, because of the massive amount of reports, there's no guarantee they can get to the people in time. >> get to them and to their families to get them to safety. thank you, martha. >>> and now, a milestone in the oil spill in the gulf. it is now 100 days. 100 days filled with images we'll never forget. the loss of life on the burning rig. those first pictures of helpless birds. the dead turtles in the sand.

julian assange has the whole world buzzing over the leaked secret documents about the war in afghanistan posted on his website, wikileaks. today president obama said he's concerned that leaked battlefield information could jeopardize troops or operations. but he said the disclosures don't change the war strategy. >> the fact is, these documents don't reveal any issues that haven't already informed our public debate on afghanistan. >> reporter: and strong reaction from admiral mike mullen in baghdad today. >> i really am appalled by the leak, condemn the leak, and i believe that there's potential there to put american lives at risk. >> reporter: i asked assange about that. does that concern you at all? >> well, whenever we release material exposing embarrassing actions or abuses of crimes by an organization, there's always an attempt to underplay it or distract from the message. though we believe in fact that the strength of this material is that it's from people on the ground. >> reporter: assange is clearly an advocate and opponent of the war. wikileaks' mission publishing secrets. from
