time warner knows just two things., how to pump out blockbusters and two, how to make the most money out of the blockbusters by keeping production costs lower than just about everyone else. time warner made "the hangover" the highest grossing r-rated comedy ever in the united states, and a cramer five to boot even though i swore i wouldn't like it going in. how about the "harry potter" franchise? how many times can kids watch it? over and over. latest movie grossing $150 million first five days in july. a new strategy, fewer films into a crowded marketplace focusing on bigger movies especially those with comic book tie-ins where there are huge cross market opportunities and low cost production. there's that strategy again. time warner is focusing on churning out blockbusters, cutting back on films that don't look like they'll make as much money. i know that doesn't sound visionary. it's common sense, but there hasn't been a lot of common sense in that industry. cnn, huge franchise, both on air and online and online it

margaret warner has our lead story. >> warner: the trial of 100 people accused of post-election violence began on saturday in tehran. but today, the wife of one, former vice president mohammad abtahi, charged his televised+ confession had been coerced. abtahi alleged opposition leaders conspired to misrepresent the election results as fraudulent. >> ( translated ): the slogan of cheating was a slogan that immediately came up after the election. i think that this change of stance was because of (an understanding that the political elites, including myself, for a few days made a great mistake and i stress that that mistake inflicted heavy blows to our country. >> warner: in her statement, abtahi's wife told the associated press: another leading reformer, former deputy interior minister mohammad atrianfar, was shown confessing the protests were a foreign plot to topple iran's government. in a 2006 interview with the newshour in tehran, he described the regime's belief that the u.s. wanted to engineer its ouster. >> since the u.s. brought up this axis of evil slogan and talked about regime c

>> warner: yeah, they were confident of that.hat i'm told is interestingly, the north koreans in the due diligence phase, when they were figuring out, is this for real, were not insisting at all is there be some link. of course they turned around and told their people that president obama had sent a message, which the americans insist is not the case. but, no, i don't think they're worried about that. and they have also taken pains to make sure the other partners in the six-party talks knew of this in advance, understood it is not undercutting the whole nuclear united front they're trying to present in any way. >> so this is not necessarily an opening for everyone to return to the table because now we have had this great breakthrough. >> warner: well, that's the question. does it mean on the north korean's part-- after all, they're the ones who walked aeye from the talks and took all these provocative steps-- does this mean they're ready to come back? the u.s. hopes it does but they have absolutely no idea. in the meantime, they'

margaret warner talks with senator jim webb. >> warner: for more than two years, the southeast nation of myanmar, formerly burma, has shut its doors to top american officials and journalists. most americans' clearest images of myanmar filmed pictures of the government's repression of dissent. this was its violent crackdown two years ago on buddhist monks who protested against the regime. the u.s. and european union have maintained economic sanctions on myanmar for more than a decade, but china is investing heavily there. the country has been so closed off to the west that after last year's devastating cyclone which killed more than 80,000, it took immense international pressure to get any foreign aid into the country. yet the burmese junta, which has been ruling for more than 50 years, did welcome democratic senator jim webb of virginia ten days ago. in quick succession, webb met with w t regime's reclusive leader and then with nobel peace prize winner and leading semi-ziing a vis kyi. kyi. aung san suu kyi. kyi was arrested once again and her house arrest extended. the government imp

and that's no way to secure a population and win a counterinsurgency. >> warner: is that the way youee it, and in fact, does that mean more troops are or aren't the answer? >> i agree with tom that the forces that we have in afghanistan do need to be redistributed and focused on areas where the population is extremely vulnerable. and where the insurgency is strong. but i think even if you do that and he gets the troops without caveats outside of the wire, we will still need more forces in afghanistan because the population of afghanistan is large. it's roughly $340 million people and we simply do not have enough troops there to create the kinds of dense forces needed to secure the small neighborhoods all throughout afghanistan where the insurge ipteds are fighting. >> and many in very rural areas. so fit this in with the theme of your piece this weekend that afghanistan is today's vietnam. i mean in vietnam there was a steady increase in the number of troops. is that the parallel you fear? >> well, i think -- yeah, it is. let me give you a number. in both vietnam and afghanistan thes
