o.j. simpson. >> yes. >> trevor: you alluded to the fact that o.j., you think, was partly responsible forme and reality tv. >> absolutely. you look at the rise of court tv and trials and, you know, that was the trial of the century and it was fascinating to watch and kellie ripa is on the show and she was on "all my children" at the time the o.j. trial was happening and they were preempted every day and she realized this is going to be the end of the soap opera because what's happening in the courtroom is so much more interesting. >> trevor: so if that started the thing we now have today, can you explain how we have donald trump?

o.j. simpson, but it's huge. and, you know, most cases result by plea, otherwise the system would collapse. we have plea-bargains all the time. that being said, this case will probably be a trial. it will be a huge trial. and i think given that he's had all of these civil cases and kind of the steady drum beat for justice against bill cosby, i think that it will be very prominent, high profile trial. and his lawyers have always been denying the charges and actually sued women for defamation. so we can see a vigorous defense, for sure. >> i want to go back to something i talked about with ari. there are a number of nondisclosure agreement that's have been signed between bill cosby and some of these women who have made these allegations. how might some of the nondisclosure agreements affect a criminal trial? >> well, the fact is a third party went in and challenged nondisclosure in a sealing of documents in that deposition where he admitted drugging women under oath. that's a big deal to have an admission like that

o.j. simpson, a traumatic and racially polarizing event. over the past two decades, blacks and hispanics have always ad more negative views on race relations in the u.s. than white. following the election years of mr. obama in 2008, the majority vieweddemographic groups race relations in the u.s. as fairly good. in february 2012, a volunteer eighborhood watchman named george zimmerman shot and killed 17-year-old trayvon martin, then series of unarmed killings of chicago, in cincinnati, and beyond, have parked outraged protests and significantly diminished views f race relations among all racial groups, according to this poll. a little bit more from this article is in the latest wall street journal nbc news poll, 26% of african-americans, 33% of hispanics viewof race relations as very or fairly good. in the same poll, 22% of democrats said the debate and of force by the use police was one of the most personally important news pieces of he year, compared to 7% republicans. call from with a davonne in greensboro, north carolina, in our 30 sxur

o.j. simpson type situation. he went to trial and was exonerated of every allegations.s completely cleared. i would like to know who ms. allred's clients like 40 years ago. did they go to parties where drugs were handed out? why did they approach mr. cosby? what did they get out of the relationship? they need to get investigated and they have to be questioned to find out what happened and what didn't happen. this is 40 years later and they are all making these accusations. something seems wrong to me. >> listen, tom -- >> it doesn't seem wrong to me at all. >> there are about 50 accusers now. surely they can't all be looking for money. >> well, they're -- most of them are not going to be able to sue it's too late. what are they looking for? who are they? what were they like 40 years ago. what do they intend to get from their relationship in how did they behave? >> drugs were being handed out in parties and clubs left and right. people were using them freely. it was a different society then. i'm not involved in this case. but i'm skeptical of this many women jumping on t

o.j. simpson all over again, isn't it?> it is, everybody learned a lot of lessons, good and bad from the o.j. simpson trial. that's why judges have to decide whether they allow cameras. and we've seen where judges don't allow photographs and everybody is sketching the players in the game. that's ago argued by both sides, is the world going to watch this unfold in real-time? >> wendy, i think you've got a job for the next decade commenting on this trial. it's a shocking thing, frankly. >> we appreciate it. >> happy new year to you. >> coming up, a new gun law in texas, people will be able to carry their guns in plain sight. strapped to your side, show the world. how about that? an air india plane forced to turn back, why? an unwelcomed passenger on board. no, it's not snakes on a plane. more varney in a moment. this is the one place we're not afraid to fail. some of these experiments may not work. but a few might shape the future. like turning algae into biofuel... ...new technology for capturing co2 emissions... ...and car

o.j. simpson. you have two rock star black american personalities that really had a lot of crossover appeal. a lot of commercial appeal. and there's been stuff that's been going on. remember o.j. would be pushing his wife for a long time. nobody said anything. he had been punching his wife. he had fame and fortune, got away with a lot. but then the law comes down on you eventually. and you know, is black america going to rally to this guy, cosby? like they rallied to o.j.? i don't think so i really think they're different people, times have changed. and it's just, it's sad for cosby. but it's even sadder for all the women he allegedly abused, if that's true. >> did you d that soften ittal all for you. >> whoever is doing his pr needs to be fired. if you're accused of something like this and you're claiming you're innocent. i didn't do it it's horrific. america thinks i'm a monster for 52 years. he looks like he's spouting out words and it made him look more guilty to me. >> what's interesting to me,

o.j. simpson deal. no one was murdered here, but one of the things that has come up is that race plays a factor, even with the jury and how this goes forward. what do you think? >> i think that's something that people say often, is that really a factor when you have jurors? more of a factor here will be his fame and the ability he had to possibly conceal it. the prosecution is going to say he paid victims off. the victims are going to say -- mind you, the victims were of many races. so the race specificity of the victims is not really an issue. but the victims will say, we felt we had to either be, you know, subject to some sort of confidentiality agreement, because we were going to get nowhere. we tried to go to the police and no one listened to us. so the fame aspect is a bigger aspect for bill cosby and may work against him. >> one comparison that struck me with thinking of the priest abuse cases in the catholic church, and a lot of the comments based from men years later reflecting back on abuse fro

o.j. simpson when he was running down the freeway with the police chase on. it was that compelled yesterday. i was compelled because i think a lot of us have families in southern california. my dad is in a rehabilitation center right now battling cancer and was only 10 miles away. they were on lockdown. our hearts go out to everybody. >> absolutely. >> prayers, definitely. >>> good morning, everybody. as you are heading out the door this morning, we have our live hi-def doppler radar picking up no precipitation. there it is. the cold front is moving very rapidly on the bay area and if our timing serves us correctly we are expecting rain around the north bay the santa rosa area around 9 a.m. 50 in san francisco. it's going to be blustery today. south winds 10 to 20. gusts up to 45 miles per hour along the coast:and in the higher elevations. 50s and 60s. we'll get the complete timing of the system coming up at 18 minutes after the hour. >> we are going to start off were live pictures of the golden gate bridge. 101 flowing well just a gorgeous shot right now of

o.j. simpson in court standing before a judge professing their innocence. i mean, you're going to have bill cosby, my understanding they don't allow cameras in the courtroom here in montgomery county, but you're going to have a 78-year-old tv icon, movie legend, fi laphilanthropist act standing before a judge saying he's not guilty of sexual assault. that's a really big deal, kristen. >> craig, great perspective. rosemary, i want to give the final point to you. you are from philadelphia, i'm from philadelphia, i'm your former colleague there at wcau, bill cosby was a hometown hero for pennsylvanians. what is the reaction there? what does this mean for the people there? >> reporter: kristen, as you well know, he was a popular celebrity here. very much so on temple university's campus. he served on the board of trustees up until this time last year when he resigned, a very welcomed face, welcomed guest at the commencement every year. especially for that temple community. this has been very difficult to process. a hometown hero, somebody who has contributed to

o.j. simpson, and she's going to be under a lot of stress and a lot of media spotlight. and so, the government has to support her in the sense of keeping in touch with her, doing their own investigation, in regard to corroborating her statements, when she told her family members, follow-up conversations with cosby, because her mom is going to be a key witness. her mom had followed conversations with cosby, and if you believe what's in the allegation or in the charge, he made certain ambitions to her. so you've got to stay close to her, even though she's in canada, you've got to support her and empower her and make sure she gets on the stand, tells the truth, and prepare her for cross-examination. she does well in that regard, the jury is going to have a hard time not believing her. >> a. scott bolden, criminal defense attorney and former new york city sex crimes prosecutor, thank you for your time tonight. >> thank you for having me. >> bill cosby's arrest today is complicated. and there is more on that ahead. plus, the growing fight among the republicans who want to be

o.j. simpson trial, that was topic number one. issues like hurricane katrina.much better than american students know the rest of the world. everything that happens here is watched. we set an example. and it's an important part of foreign policy. foreign policy is not just what the state department does. it's who we are as a society. >> what feedback do you get? >> the campaign makes people incredibly uneasy because so much of the rest of the world is dependent upon us for security. >> about the possibility of donald trump being president? >> not only that. they watch the debates and look at the level of knowledge about foreign policy and it -- >> they're not comforted by ben carson's command of foreign policy? >> there are a lot of things that are said including mr. trump and dr. carson and others that make them uneasy. they wake up every day and they're dependent upon us. they depend upon our reliability and seriousness and this makes them uneasy. >> harold. >> two hard-core examples. you had the ambassador on the other day. he said four years ago if a differe

o.j. simpson-type situation. he went to trial and he was exonerated of every allegation, ten felonies and four misdemeanors. he was completely cleared. i would like to know who were her clients four years ago. did they go to parties where drugs were handed out? did they bring drugs to those parties? why did they approach mr. cosby. what did they want to get out of the relationship? this is 40 years later and suddenly they're all coming out making these accusations. something seems wrong to me. >> is that the kind of stuff which defense attorneys are likely to come up with in this kind of case? >> absolutely. and, you know, it's kind of a scan dard old script line. i could have predicted that pretty easily by defense attorneys as one of their theme songs for the defense. but the reality is that in the united states, victims have a right to both file a civil lawsuit seeking damages. that's their lawsuit where they are the plaintiff. and/or also go to law enforcement which andrea did, and seek stof the case criminal

o.j. simpson, because he had the money, he got acquitted.l if he kills somebody -- if you kill somebody, you should be executed. it is called a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye. i am an italian and a firm believer that if you hurt somebody you should be hurt. if you kill somebody, life in prison or executed. if you have the money, like oj, you get off. if you are ted bundy, you get electrocuted. i don't know, it is a screwy system. if you hurt somebody, you should be heard, if you kill somebody, you should be killed. that doesn't make it right because it is the government or the state. if you hurt somebody, you should get hurt. i don't know. host: if i can add a thought from twitter, this is jen saying that one good thing the governor of illinois did was stopping the death penalty. how are governors responding to this question on a state-by-state level? --st: what we are seeing is there are a number of states moving away from the death penalty. some of them are doing legislatively, repealing the death penalty this year. governor tom w
