and the online playbook. for final discussion, and what you think of the online playbook and any recommendations and the next question is an area you are most interested in if you are willing to serve on a small committee to help us flush out the best promising practices, policies and programs around nation. first online playbook. chris coleman. you are not chris coleman. >> it is always great to have an online playbook, just to suggest an addition to it which is almost a chat room we can kind of have a continual conversation to say what is working or have you tried this or whatever but we do get stuck sometimes and we don't always break through those barriers. i was actually since mayor rollins brought up his cowboys, vikings fans, i have no where to go on this at all other than my closest analogy, adrian peterson and someone who can hand the ball and put it down the field, it is an example how as the community even though we can't just focus on that one factor, it is as a team we are able to build. one of th

so here comes the playbook to stop all the bleeding. the house republican conference put out a coaching memo for members so they know how to talk about unemployment. let's see. they have a pattern of doing this. we've had a playbook on how to talk about it to women. we've had a playbook on how to talk about immigration reform. now we have a playbook from the republicans on how to be compassionate when it comes to unemployment benefits. it tells republicans to address job loss as a personal crisis for the person in their family. how touching. the memo pushes the point saying washington has lost its priorities if it is more focused on making unemployment easier to tolerate than it is getting people back to work and restoring independence all together. independence, this is what it's all about. giving people an opportunity to access something they have paid into their entire career and dip into it when they fall into hard times. finally the playbook says if the democrats can produce a fiscally responsible plan, the house is going to consid

understanding what is in your game plan, the playbook, and articulate it, and perform it. the hotel business, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, you have to get it right every time. >> i know your family is a big football fan. why do you like it? >> a play contains the course of a game. happen.r know what will it is exciting. the fans get involved. people are aspirational when it comes to their players. that puts more pressure on us to make sure the product we are putting on at metlife stadium is the best that it can be. with technology today, it is easy to sit in your man cave, woman cave con and watch a game. we want people to come out and experience it live and sit in the stadium. we want them to say was an enjoyable experience, and you sat in traffic and may be snowflakes fell on your head, but that is part of the experience. >> coming up -- >> some of the best games have been played in severe weather. ♪ >> filling all 82,000 seats at metlife stadium is no easy task. the stadium is in new jersey. it is just across the hudson city from new york. metlife

what governor cuomo did was the playbook of the progressives. let's appellant the broadbrush for candidates and people. it is a fake retraction. who cares about his apology? i understand that ed cox calls for a apology and so should other people in the state, but let's look at the policies and what he's really doing in the state. >> what ed cox told us yesterday on the program, if you don't get an apology he believes that is what the governor thinks and feels. how many people voted for dpof goff romney. >> one- third of new yorkers voted for governor romney. and so apparently governor cuomo in a free country can't decide where americans live. it is a typicical playbook for cuomo. he's simply playing to his base. he has 33 million and he wants to run for president and bill diblasio in new york city which is the anchor because of population, he is the new hero for the progressives and cuomos is playing his political cards. >> i hear you sighing? >> it is distorted by conservatives saying he was saying that anybody who believes this shouldn't live

it's good to crack open the playbook and see how it works. the strategy you buy one put and sell a lower strike put of the same expiration to reduce costs. you do that when you are bearish, you want the stock to go to the strike of the put you selled. that's where you make the most money. that's also where your profits are capped. mike, walk us through. >> i'm looking specifically at the march 23, 19 put spread. i was looking at these today. you could buy those 23 puts for about $1.20 then sell the 19 strike puts against it for 20 cents. that creates a net debit to the buyer of the put spread of 1. you know, i would point out these gaming stocks, carter and i talked about these in early december, we were bullish at the time. they moved almost 20% to the upside. you will notice, that the strikes have chosen pretty much are looking at that movement over that time frame. so you know, looking at these things fully valued, i'm trying to make a relatively inexpensive bearish bet. and shorting stocks, as we always know, unlimited risk. >> scott, you

jcpenney is following the classic playbook turnaround stock. what you need to dop in the process.de comps positive, changed management, brought back coupons and promotions, customers love. they have $2 billion in liquidity. we'll see was the cash flow looks like. my guess is that's going to take a little longer to turn positive, but all in all, they're following the playbook and i think this is not a one quarter, two month turnaround. i think it's more of a one to two-year-type turnaround. >> you need conviction. mike, it's been tough owning jcpenney and appreciate you comen on here, but what is it you gee not to belittle the point in jcp making you hang on? >> comps weren't went positive. that's very good. the ceo came out and said, look, our fourth quarter is living up to its expectations. a lot of retailers are not living up to expectations they laid out there. the marketen getting whipped up because they don't know what the profit levels are. my guess is they're nowhere near profitability yet. that's probably a couple quarters down the road. if i look out two years i think the

he has a look at the playbook. ther debt fight around the corner. where do both parties stand on the issue, and is it still an issue that's the center of the conversation? >> willie, over the next week, we'll hear a lot of patting themselves on the back from both partying. we'll have the president's state of the union tomorrow, where he'll talk about progress ahead, what he's already done. the republicans have their retreat coming up at the end of the week. they're going to talk about unified they are and how smart politically they are. but here's a reality check. the hard issues are all being ignored this year. next month with they have to raise the debt ceiling, the republicans are going to ask something for it, we heard on the shows yesterday. mitch mcconnell, senator ted cruz, saying they want something. but, willie, they're going to ask for changes to obamacare, not anything that would deal with long-term drivers of the debt. >> politico's mike allen, thank you very much. coming up, matt lauer sits down with ja

paul, as part of the gop rebranding effort to women, this does not fit into the playbook that party leadersg to follow. >> reporter: there has been a controversy over these comments since he made them yesterday, but mike huckabee, remember the former republican senator who ran for the white house in 2008. he was trying to say that democrats have furbished this war on women and they are the bigger supporter of women. this comes as the gop is trying to rebrand the party to reach out to more female, minority and younger voters, but the inartful way in which he said it, the use of the word libido, that's what's caused this minor controversy and gave democrats instant ammunition to say republicans haven't changed one bit. in fact, that comment coming from debbie wasserman schultz, a woman, of course, and the chairwoman of the democratic national committee. listen, all this comes, of course, one year, or little over a year after the presidential election. take a look at the exit polls. this is 2012, the presidential election. you can see the democrats doing much better. 55% of the female vote goi

it's the same playbook as it was last year, scott. if people are sitting on the sidelines waiting to get on this big correction they're going to miss the boat again. a lot of big mac kro data has gone away. it's about where you want to be. in our opinion, stick with the ones that were wing last year, the technology names, financials. bank of america came out with great numbers yesterday. goldman sachs will be reporting tomorrow. upgraded, today, those are the names winning. you have to be pragmatic in this market. you have to have a little bit of cash on the sidelines. you can buy some of the stocks going through earnings which you're going to fail a little bit. be long. >> doc, what about technology? >> technology is taking the flag and it's leading the charge this far. nasdaq 100 best two-day gain in three months. >> is tech the place to be? >> it's one of the places to be and why i have two of my five stocks are tech related names in the playoff playbook. the reason i did that, judge, was i do see tech continuing to work here. i tho

he did not see the crisis coming . playbookrevolutionized monetary policy and the federal reserve itself. bernanke has two ways his term, delivering what is expected to be his final speech as chairman. randy krasner is a former fed a professor at the university of chicago. the final chapter has not been written. at this point, what do you think we can say about ben bernanke's legacy? positive viewry of the chairman. as you said, we took a lot of risks in doing things that had not been done. when the fed in the 1930's did not do anything after similar shocks, things i did really badly. we never repeated the great oppression, we had a contraction but nothing like the one third job in gdp, 30% decline on price level and unemployment we had in the 1930's. the chairman gets a lot of credit for that. do we like at your or the bank of japan and perhaps the bank of england to recognize the wisdom of what ben bernanke and other members of the fomc decided they had to do. if there were an alternative to monetary easing, someone would be

like any team in trouble, he tends to go to the playbook and run the same play. when he's deeply down in the polls and not very popular, it's like he does the old clinton maneuver of let your enemies define you. find an enemy, go after them, and he's done it before and he thinks somehow this is going to benefit him by blaming a network that is just giving both sides. >> one thing i will say. look, cable news does set the trend for reporting during the day. it used to be the "new york times." now cable news is sort of dominating the 24-hour cycle. >> don't you think that's morning joe more than any other -- in terms of a policy debate, setting the agenda? >> i think "the five" helps contribute to that. >> but that's not until later in the day. i happen to know that michelle obama has watched the show. she would not put this up as necessarily her happiest show, but -- and i sit here day in and day out, and you have some problems with obama. i can understand obama's frist frustration. the problem is there's no end game here. >> it is like republicans, though, who tr

as i said, during the playbook playoffs i said i think the stock carried 75. to be perfectly honest i was being conservative. i think the stock has more upside. if you look at what they said on the quarter, if you look at the ad dollars coming in, we don't know how high that can get or what percentage of the market they can get. so i think you stay with facebook, ride facebook. i think 75 is higher than that. >> track all the moves the traders make and perform maps by going to cnbc.com/2014/playbook. also tweet us using the #playbookplayoffs. >>> netflix is fighting red tape after morgan stanley admitted it was long by slapping a sell rating on the stock. th capitulating a bit today. over the last week or so he's not the first analyst on a specific stock to say, you know what, maybe we were wrong, change course. >> kudos to him for that because when any of us get it wrong and i get it wrong frequently, to have him turn around and then take off that rating, i think kudos to him or her, whichever analyst we happen to be talking about that day that makes that mov

i think he's deeply in troubley and like any team in trouble, he tends to go to the playbook and run the same plays. when he is deeply down in the polls and he's not very popular, it's like he does the old d clinton maneuver of let your enemies define you. go after them, he's done it before and he thinks somehow this is going to benefit him by blaming a network that is just giving botthh sides.ing >> one thing i will say, cable news does set the trend for reporting during the day.s it used to be the "new york times." sort ofnow ws is dominating the 24-hour cycle. >> yeah, but don't you thinkou that's more than -- in terms of a policy debate, setting the p agenda? >> "the five" probably helps contribute to that.hink >> but that's not 'til later in the day. >> if you're -- i happen to know michelle obama watched this show several times and she is not -- she would not put this up ass necessarily her happiest show. and i sit here day in and day d out and you have some problems with obama, i can understand obama frustrations. the problem i got is there is n end game here. >> it is like rep

that's the playbook. >> the long-running massachusetts casino debate came to a close on november 22,atrick signed into law a bill allowing casino gambling in the bay state. the new law allows for construction of three casinos in separate regions of massachusetts. echoing many other governors around the country, governor patrick sayst th casinos will put people to work and strengthen the massachusetts economy. well, that's our edition of 60 minutes on cnbc. i'm steve kroft. thanks for joining us. >> working in a prison is really tough. it is not for everybody. >> when you have gangs involved, if you don't do what you're asked, then you would get beat up. >> the biggest prison in the state of idaho is also the toughest. the idaho correctional center, the i.c.c., was so violent that employees and inmates had a name for the place -- gladiator school. >> and that was because of the assaults. and that's why they called it gladiator school, because of that rea

up next, the political playbook. rst, bill karins -- >> mika, i didn't get caught up on the beaver. >> when are you predicting the big problems for atlanta to end and the southern parts of the country? >> tuesday morning i said 1 to 2 inches in atlanta and it started snowing at 11:00 a.m. >> the issue was the ice too along with it. the temperatures. >> the sleet and snow. it was well-predicted. they can't complain about the forecast in atlanta. birmingham, alabama, that forecast was a bust and not calling for too much snow and they got 2 inches and they are not getting a lot of attention but they had people stranded on the roads also. >>> it's still freezing in the deep south. this is the coldest morning you'll have for a long time. ice and snow on secondary roads but we are watching improvement. by afternoon a lot of it should be gone. today in the 30s and 40s so that will be very helpful. we do have a snowstorm for you in minneapolis this morning. it's much warmer but your morning commute is going to be treacherous.

reinvented the playbook. he was on the case 24/7.ship. >> he walks out basically, i don't believe the crap that i'm preaching. is it a money-making machine or do they preach what they believe? >> for the most part, people believe what they're preaching. for the most part, they were very sincere. >> what was the self-help book or seminar that most helped you? >> i took a fear of flying class and that actually helped me. >> what was the weirdest thing you did? we mentioned you walked on hot coals. >> i did walk on hot coals. it is more impressive than it sounds. they insulate you. people get hurt if they standstill, but it is very difficult to burn yourself. >> how did that help you? >> it takes a lot of bravery to walk on hot coals. >> you felt inspired. >> i felt powerful. it was short-lived. >> wait, wait. it was short-lived, the gain you got from risking the soles of your feet. >> a short-lived gain is still a gain. >> it absolutely is. >> it was from here to there, six feet. it is more of like a symbolic walk. >> we'll take that.

so are republicans kind of stealing a page of the democrats' playbook and isn't it therefore hypocritical for the demes to be so critical. >> this is nothing sure in policy and this is a case of it. democrats have a big agenda in 2006. they passed a cap and trade bill, minimum wage increase, fair letter act, but when it came to run again and maintain the majority they toned things down because in part polls showed people were weary of what the liberal agenda -- what was being passed in congress. so they had a low-key year leading up to the agenda. they picked up 21 new seats in the elections so republicans were not able to make any ground in regaining the majority, they lost seats to democrats. so this plan, it works. >> let me ask you this, speaker boehner has now hired a well-regarded expert on immigration policy named rebecca talon. everybody on capitol hill knows her. is that a sign he and the republican leadership are sincere and serious about reform of immigration this year? >> well, it depends on how you define reform. what is interesting here is both parties define reform very dif

look at the last two market day action, it's out of like a pop warner football playbook. y right. we so easily forget about the anemic jobs report last friday of 74,000. i think the market obviously saw a nice rally today, caught some shorts. everybody thought yesterday was the move down but i'm very defensive up here and i'm very cautious, because we talked about this last year, larry. 2014 is the year of volatility. i know the vix is not showing it but volatility is back and this could be dangerous up here. >> jack, straighten him out for me, would you? tell him that in fact, the lousy jobs report on friday was a weather fluke, that retail sales are stronger than anybody thought. i want to look at industrial production, i want to look at inflation. i think the fundamentals, jack, are still very solid. >> that's it. the economy's accelerating and the nfib survey, you know, don't even pay attention to the s&p stuff, just look underneath the surface at small business, and we see this groundswell. i have clients who own businesses and the biggest problem i hear is over the l

but no, emerging market volatility, it's right out of the playbook. when the fed changes policy, emerging markets tend to struggle. the weakest links are exposed. that's what's happening. it's not a reason to get bearish on u.s. equities. >> you mentioned a very interesting statistic before we came on air. in one previous crisis, which was started by the thailand currency, the emerging markets index. tell me what it did. >> in july of '97, we had the crisis that spread through asia, the asian index dropped 50% from july to the fall of '97 and during that period, u.s. stocks rallied 10%. so there was a movement into u.s. stocks. i think that could happen again. >> stay with us. we will go back up to e.c. >> in today's yahoo! finance question of the day, we asked how you're planning on investing in the middle of this emerging markets threat. let's take a look. those are the questions. invest more in the u.s., a balanced portfolio, short emerging market etfs, go to finance.yahoo!.com and vote. i guess we will show the results later this hour. all right. w

. >> you're thinking about the plays, going through the playbook, watched a lot of videotape on the opposingr pretty confident? >> you're pretty confident. i mean, you played very well to get here. and you have -- we have to rely on the experience and say, hey, look, we earned the right to be here. we belong here. we want to be world champions. everybody has to take the same approach. as a quarterback, you're just thinking about doing your job. if you try to do too much, that leads to a lot of problems. i have been in both situations where if you just do your job, you're fine. if you turn around and try to help guys out, make too perfect a throw, it doesn't work out that way. both of these quarterbacks, one very young, one very experienced and legendary in his own right, are going to put on a great show. >> quite a matchup, that's for sure. it took a lot to get them to where they are, to get them on sunday, like me and my awesome team, the san francisco 49ers. that's why i'm going to go for denver. you see it differently. who do you like? >> i like the seahawks. i'm picking seattle. the reas

billion increements then we might be able to say the fed is panicking i think they're following the playbook. liz: right. >> this all started with the negative chinese pmi number last year. we'll get the official, that was the hsb-c estimate. we'll get the official pmi tonight. that will be a number i think we should pay attention to. we haven't had a 10% correction since october of 2011. it is about time. david: john, the fed is not panicking perhaps but it is under new leadership. it is struggling to kind of find its way. of course the question about tapering, we had richard fisher on here about three months ago. actually it was in december, excuse me. beginning of december. he said back then he would have preferred a $20 billion a month taper, about twice as much as they're tapering now. let's play that and i will ask you a question related to it. >> i actually argued and i can only speak for myself, i argued for 20 billion. i think the market could have digested that. david: that was the first, this was the first time that richard fisher has voted in the fed for two years and yet he vote

happening help us foreign intervention and so on and so forth it is a very basic tactic from the rebellion playbook being implemented throughout the world in georgia and elsewhere in the ukraine in two thousand and four of all things so i think the protesters are trying to make a point that they're to ones that decide what gets done and who initiates the violence as evidenced by mr klitschko statement that we will hold him to live until the negotiations are over but we have the power to actually go on strike and initiate attack and he's he's directly again saying his foreign supporters are saying the government is responsible for this it's not it's a protestors. ukraine's ministry of internal affairs says protesters have been hoarding weapons in case of city administration building meanwhile police say they've seized a range of weapons when they detained or gang in the capital their arsenal included two assault rifles four pistols and hundreds of rounds of ammunition authorities say they have added and that the gang was involved in kidnappings and supplying arms to the protesters. well we've been f

. >> i think jpmorgan is writing the playbook on this stuff. people are willing to put it in the rear-view mirror and look beyond it. it could be incrementally higher than what it is. but for the most part, people are looking backwards. >> i think bank of america is a strong value. but i was concerned about the mortgage orangeation numbers. that is a bread and butter business for bank of america. with rates go up, you see less mortgage originations. they're a solid long-term growth story. you're going to see small business lending in 2014. >> and the merrill lynch side of the equation with bank of america. the stock explodes 20 cents through the 52-week high. big turnover. $325 million turned over today, versus normal of $80 million. i think the stock goes to 20 by the end of this quarter. so, i think you've got more upside. we'll have to see whether or not the market plays along. >> major short coming is what i heard from the street. and my prime brokers in december, because of the litigation. the stuff gets out of the way, i think the street w

argentina ticking off a fourth box from the playbook as well, subsidies. tina's total bill on subsidies on energy like for the total half of 2013 rose by 62% from the previous year. this isn't the only form of government support. according to the world bank, argentina is one of the world's most protectionist countries meaning that it imposes the most restrictions on global trade, shielding its favorite sectors. now that brings us to our final category, becoming a dictatorship. argentina is, of course, a democracy, but president cristina fernandez has displayed worrying symptoms. between her and her late husband, they have ruled argentina for a decade. in recent months cristina fernandez has clamped down on the pedia, floated rumors of amending the constitution, to run for a third term. she's building a cultive personality. >> ♪ don't cry for me argentina ♪ >> fashioning herself after evita, the widow of the former president, made famous on stage and screen. argentina's attempt to mirror a failed state like venezuela tells a larger story. look at this map of

. >> luke, it was the playbook in 2012 and how barack obama was able to beat mitt romney. when you look at the exit polls, one of the things that hurt mitt romney is voters were saying his policies would benefit the rich, and not the middle class or the poor. it seems that democrats going for minimum wage increase, going for unemployment benefits, other things to kind of hit at this income inequality, where when the economy seems to be getting better, but a lot of people say, hey, the economy isn't benefitting me. democrats want to pinpoint this. the open question is whether or not this ends up taking away from the health care law. the republicans definitely want to press on that. it does seem democrats have found the narrative they want to stress. >> an interesting story out of wyoming. liz cheney, the daughter of former vice president dick cheney, has announced she will not continue her campaign, citing family health reasons, not pertaining to her father, but her children, saying that's why she dropped out. this probably alleviates a headache that could have been playing

you can't take out the 2010 playbook which says keep bristol myers. things are better. we are worried about china and china is a concern but that's where i want to look three days from now. >> don't lose sight of the fact that the u.s. economy is today very different, very strong, and so what is going on in these other countries, whether it's argentina or whatever, doesn't -- it matters, but it doesn't -- it's not a cause for -- >> exactly. '96-97, you had an asian contagion. anyone who says don't worry about it gave up 5% to 8% in the financials, maybe 12% to 15%. that was worse than this. in terms of the contagion, europe, really bad because they are such great trading partners. listen to what howard schultz said this morning. europe is much better, okay, china, the companies are actually doing business there, are all saying it's up. i know it's a down tick from 7.74 to 7.25. i understand argentina being a concern but that's a political risk country. it's not a systemic risk country. our systemic risk is off the table. >> we will have you back in a moment to talk more

it is a very basic tactic from the rebellion playbook team get implemented throughout the world and in georgia and elsewhere in ukraine in two thousand for top of all things so i think the protesters are trying to make a point that they are the ones to decide what gets it done and we initiate violence that as evidence by mr briscoe statement that out we will hold until this untill the negotiations are over but we have the power to actually did go one striking initiate attack and he's he's wrecked again seeing this point supporters are saying the government is responsible for this. it's not it's the protesters. ukraine's ministry of internal affairs has for casters have been hoarding weapons in kyiv city administration building meanwhile police say they've seized a range of weapons when they detained again in the capital. they are still included two assault rifles for pistols and hundreds of rounds of ammunition authorities say they have evidence that the game was involved in kidnappings and supply arms to the protesters now when men following the riots in ukraine since they kicked off

don't care what you do, i think, as long as you come to work prepared and in shape and dissecting the playbookat roger goodell's comments? the nfl is not known to be at the forefront of pushing the cultural envelope. he didn't say we're going to sanction it but opened the door to it. did that surprise you? >> it did. there always seems to be a disconnect between the players and the league. it shows me roger is getting a little more compassionate about what those guys go through and maybe understanding there are consequences to that violent product on the field and not everyone can just go home and say i don't need anything, i'm fine, pain follows you off the field. some guys medicate with pills. my personal belief is weed is just not as harmful. >> it's interesting that you couch it under the sort of rubric of pain because the nfl has come under a lot of fire lately for pain, injuries, concussions. you talked about the violent product on the field. what do you think about the sport right now? and what do you think needs to be done to address that question? >> i love the sport. i love the dange

i want to know what you think about the online playbook. is there an area that you are most interested in if you would be willing to serve on a small committee to help us flesh out some of the best practices and programs around the nation? i think it is always great to have an online playbook. maybe just suggest an addition, if there is a way there is a chat room we can have a continual conversation amongst ourselves to say what is working or have you tried this or whatever. i do think we get stuck sometimes and we do not always break through those barriers. i am a vikings fan. i got nowhere to go on this at all. it is an example of how was the community, we cannot just focus on that one factor. it is the teams we are allowed to build. one of the things we overlook sometimes because it is harder to measure -- i appreciate the desire to measure. -- emotional skills >> you can see all of this on our video library on c-span. we will take you live to the white house. jay carney is getting underway with today's briefing. >> later this evening, th

christie may not have put the worst of the traffic scandal behind him but he's certainly followed the playbook by those long advised on how to quell a firestorm. find out all you can as fast as you can. that's how christie spent yesterday. second you take action including dealing decisively with those responsible for the misconduct and apologize without reservation and take all questions. no matter what your defenders may say about the wrongdoing, you don't try to minimize it which is what christie seemed to be doing until today. this may have been a four-day traffic jam on to a bridge in new jersey, but this is no ordinary bridge. the george washington is the most trafficked in the world, and it's part of interstate 95, the main north-south artery of the east coast. millions of americans who don't live anywhere near new jersey or new jersey have traveled across that bridge and few can forget what an unpleasant trip it is when traffic is light, which is almost never is so this is a scandal many, many people can imagine easily affecting them. the verdict on christie's handling of it after the d

some day a president will actually follow through on the idea of throwing out the playbook, but i thinkthat president, it will have to be your first state of the union where you do it. >> really, why? >> well, because of what my bush colleague just said, because of the expectations, which are overpowering those expectations. and it's certainly true that the state of the union is a recipe for a bad speech, because a good speech, you know, has a theme, it has a point, it makes that point, it supports that point. it's not a list of things. so if you're going to throw it out, start early. start early. >> hendrick hersburg, jonathan horn, we'll all be watching tonight, thank you so much. >> thank you. >>> checking the news this morning. >> what is congress afraid of? nine out of ten americans support background checks. >> former congresswoman gabby giffords appearing in a new ad appearing before and after president obama's speech tonight. giffords says congress is afraid of the gun lobby and urges america to tell congress it's too dangerous to wait. >>> an oklahoma state lawmaker is proposin

what bitcoin advocates have picked up is the washington playbook. there is a way in the town that ensures your asset will not be unnecessarily attacked. it going has grabbed onto this. they have hired lobbyists and have trade groups. this is a really interesting way of doing things. it is almost as if they have figured out how the industry's work in this town and are now mimicking it. the problem is it is not one of greed upon group. what we have seen is lobbyists to want to grab the issue and help lawmakers understand it, lawmakers are intrigued by the issue and want to know how it works and it are is a danger there. what you have right now is people trying to get in front of a move from congress or regulators to restrict this before we have a full understanding of it. they are following it. how effective it will be is how effective it will be over the next few months. >> thank you. what do ces mean for media companies? we have talked about gadget companies but we will not talk about the way tech is changing the way you watch television next. >> wel
