bethea: a huge change came about when mayor shirley franklin became the mayor of atlanta. we're having to choose how to spend our money. i named myself "the sewer mayor," and i wear that title very proudly, because, without wastewater infrastructure and drinking water infrastructure, the economy will stop. we did a major outreach. we trained an outreach team, who went to every community meeting, to educate people on how bad the crisis was. not only did i tell people that we'd have to raise rates, i told them we'd have to tear up the city to repair this infrastructure. man: you can't simply say, "i won't use any water, it's too expensive." we have about 25% of our population that's at or below the poverty line, so you have to look at rate structures that are tiered so the people can pay their bills. franklin: we would love to have something like 75% federal money. we do get some federal aid and we are thankful, but on the other hand, we're paying for this primarily with new rates. we have increased our rates to among the highest in america. but not nearly as much as if we h

and how about the shirley sherrod controversy?red, but it was taken out of context, but he is not apologizing. he told me last year that he is trying to right the wrongs of corrupt journalism and people are listening and clicking on the web pages to the tune of 3 million unique viewers everyday. so who is he going to go after next? well, only andrew breitbart knows. >>> just ahead n the xyz, houston, we have a problem. i will explain next. [ artis brown ] america is facing some tough challenges right now. two of the most important are energy security and economic growth. north america actually has one of the largest oil reserves in the world. a large part of that is oil sands. this resource has the ability to create hundreds of thousands of jobs. at our kearl project in canada, we'll be able to produce these oil sands with the same emissions as many other oils and that's a huge breakthrough. that's good for our country's energy security and our economy. the morning after the big move starts with back pain... and a choice. take adv

out that the person behind this is andrew brightbart, who's made a practice of targeting democrats, shirleynotoriously, and his stories tend to fall apart on close inspection. here, anthony wiener doesn't seem to be ending the story. >> dana, if we called the capitol police and asked them to look into it, they would do that, right? >> absolutely. that is the protocol here on capitol hill. i talked to law enforcement sources, and they said that if -- it would not be unusual for a member of congress who felt that their account was hacked if they called the capitol police to please look into this, i want to know who did this, they would do it. and a spokesman for the fbi, who would also be a potential place that would investigate, they also said that congressman wiener has not called to ask for an investigation. he said that it was a prank and wants to move on. but it was just a little odd that he wouldn't answer that question. >> it's also far from clear that even if he was hacked, there was a crime committed here. as far as i'm aware, there's never been a criminal prosecution based on impers

the single individual who has received the greatest settlement from that is shirley sherrod. shirley sherrod, the former usda employee whom the secretary of agriculture, tom vilsack, hired three days after she received news shah she was going to receive $13 million in her claim against pigford. that was on a july 22, he hired her on july 25, and later on when a speech that she gave before the naacp came to light, then the secretary fired her like that. i don't believe that that was an act that was his decision alone, i find the secretary to be a wise, smart and a careful, well prepared man. however often i disagree with him. i believe that order came from the white house. and he tried to hire her back. it didn't work until some weeks ago. now she's back on the payroll, having filed a lawsuit against who? the guy who published the truth, andrew brybar. these are all things this congress needs to get to the bottom of, mr. speaker. this congress needs to, if we have to, subpoena the records, go through the 94,000 applications, sort them, chart them, evaluate them, bring people u

the circus, the only thing could have trumped it was if shirley charade had showed up in the audiencement of vindication. it's not surprising that andrew breitbart showed up and sort of tried to take the spotlight upon himself when given it be opportunity. i do think though, he had a five-minute window where he could have worn the gloss of legitimacy. he managed to shrug it off by standing up there and making it about him. when in reality this is about the career of an elected representative. >> to be fair to andrew, he was asked by the reporters stand at the microphone -- now, of course the reporter it was self-serving for them and for us. we got great video. andrew breitbart and a microphone, the media got great stuff out of this thing today. but going forward here, there's a very interesting journalistic moment here in our history. abc news went into business with andrew breitbart. one has a fair reason to assume that some money changed hands. that andrew was paid for his services, consulting to this story. >> right. there is a huge -- look, there is a huge question about stories l

the top christian authority saying this, giving shirley of the okay to act outside of the common law when you have people like that in the positions of authority if only he since the downfall and the american people completely in the dark and it many cases do not know this is going on. if they did they would be outraged and that is why i wrote the book. >> host: we have a director in the community talking to my wife about this when she was clearing him on supposedly the interfaith counseling that is going on today and she said what about the muslim brotherhood? what about some of the assaults against the christians in egypt and elsewhere and the reaction of was furman and episcopal priest well, it's their time. i mean, they, the willful blindness, and this is your term in the book to me is what may undo this country. if something catastrophic happens here we will be accessories after the fact if not full co-conspirators. estimate of their rental back on this generation and curse this generation and shake their fists at a loss for what we didn't do as this threat was rising to just ac

>> i think that clearly we look at the whole incident around shirley sherrod that he was a part of and initiated and even a.c.o.r.n. all of us have fought him. on this one he ends up having to look right in terms of what happened here. whether he made -- he ends up on this one right. does that erase the past? it won't for many of us in the progressive community. it is what it is. but i think on this one he looks like he was not doing something that was not -- that was baseless. >> the element of sadness here as a liberal, as a talker, i've stheen guy, we all have, go up on the floor and fight for health care. fight for benefits, fight for the downtrodden, give a voice to the voiceless. he has been a great liberal progressive and a democrat that's true to what the party platform has been. can he come back? can he still be effective? can he be effective now? >> i think that what he does in the next coming days will tell us that. we've seen people come back from criminal prosecutions and other things. i think that the opportunity to come back is there but the question will be can he rise

but it was the same andrew breitbart who last year posted an edited video that falsely indicated shirley sharrod an agricultural department employee had discriminated against whites. she's now suing him. that episode illustrates a problem. blogs can be a law unto themselves. there doesn't seem to be any way that anything catches up with bloggers or any way of addressing when a blogger really does something or says something that's not true. >> it's their community. the community in the web in general will actually correct facts on particular blogs if they feel they're not factual. believe it or not those are actually the least desirable blogs from a business perspective. >> reporter: and business is what drives many blogs. with all of broadway gearing up for tonight's tony awards, no one is paying closer attention than robert diamond, founder of the website broadway world dot-com. >> they will have several blogs going simultaneously on tony night from back stage with the winners, from behind the scenes, from rehearsals as well as at the broadcast itself. >> reporter: while his main websi

for grabs because this huge piece of legislation passed, shirley parsifal, extremely unusual in american history and makes it susceptible to john. there have been attempts to national elections in which health care was an important issue. in the second case i would say the central issue. first 2008 work president obama defeated senator mccain. he won the democrats, democrats one congressman. it again huge issue in 2010. republicans won a huge issue running against obamacare. we had won election on each side. 2012 is the rubber match. and probably will determine the future of health care in this country one way or the other. so this is really, an unusual moment in american politics. over the last 20, 30 years. it we it we have on these rare moments when this kind of a fork in the road. a fork that a substitute or important. health care is a huge issue. 16% of gdp. 30% of the federal budget and two different visions of how to reform it. this is not sort of one party is for doing a little more and one part is we're doing a lot more in the same direction, and this is not one of these mighty

you remember shirley sherrod, she had been forced out.excerpt of her speech had appeared on his website. it appeared she had been discriminated against a white farmer. that was not the case. >> he ended it with a political purpose, making it sound like she was saying one thing and she really wasn't. we saw how that all blew up in everybody's face. we haven't heard a lot about wiener's wife. we can just imagine what she is going through, how she is feeling. we are sort of, i guess we are wondering what she is going to do next. we noticed that she was not there at the news conference. she wasn't the woman standing by her husband's side. we also know she is a very close friend of hillary clinton, a close aide to hillary clinton. can had hillary clinton went through a sex scandal of sorts. i wonder if his wife called her for advice. there is an interesting dynamic there that we are curious to know more about. >> she is someone who you see her constantly by the side of secretary of state, hillary clinton. she reportedly started working for mrs
