Lauderdale over the weekend, demanding tighter gun control laws. Other groups are planning a series of protests across the country during the next several weeks. After that weekend rally, 100 students plan to visit floridas Legislature Tomorrow to call for a ban on assault weapons. Adriana diaz spoke to four survivors of the shooting at marjor Marjory Stoneman douglas high school. Reporter the students told us theyre fighting for change for the 17 victims memorialized here. Thats why theyre getting on buses tomorrow to go to the state capital with petitions in hand. Most of them have never known a World Without School Shootings. But they want theirs to be the last. They say that tougher gun laws do not reduce gun violence. We call bs. Reporter never again. Thats the rallying cry from student survivors fueled by the loss of their peers. If all our government and president can do is send thoughts and prayers to the victims, be the change we need to see. Reporter Emma Gonzalez is one of the teens calling on politicians to pass stricter gun laws, along with delaneytarr and david kasky. What do you think is the one thing about your generation that can spark change here . The fact were getting shot. I hate it took hitting me right at home for me to get involved with this but i have to forgive myself for that and keep moving. As much as i would love to be worrying about prom dresses and College Acceptance letters, in my mind, i cant think about anything now except change. All i can think about is the 17 faces. Reporter theyre taking their movement nationwide with a march on washington next month. How does a march bring change . Think of all the things that happened since the first womans march. Weve had the me too movement. Along with those women, its our turn and its the grieving students turned to put an end to this and be heard. Were going to make ourselves so loud, so brazen that they wont be able to ignore us in the white house. This is all about gaining a platform so we can discuss with them creating commonsense gun laws and stricter gun legislation. We want assault rifles off the market. Automatic, semiautomatic has no place in civilian society. Reporter is it a slippery slope . Do we start with ar15s and more gun rights are taken away from people . We have a right to live. At this point. What does it mean to have rights, to have guns . What were on right now is a slippery slope that were getting to the bottom of. This needs to be where we stop and we start to stand up. Reporter and they expect millions to stand with them when they march. We ask how they could effect real change if many of them arent old enough to go to the polls. They said, we cant vote, but we can be heard. And theyve got their eyes on the midterm election. Norah. They are being heard, thank you so much. The family that lived with nikolas cruz tells a florida news paper they had no idea the gunman was capable of such a crime. Other agencies apparently missed a number of warning signs. The Florida Department of children and families investigated cruz in 2016. And Police Records show deputies went to his home more than three dozen times. Manuel bojorquez is outside stoneman high in parkland. Manuel, good morning. Reporter good morning. As you can see, this memorial outside the high school continues to grow and documents obtained by cbs news paint a picture of a troubled young man and a mother who tried to prevent him from spiraling out of control. They also show Law Enforcement and social services had opportunities to intervene. In september 2016, nikolas cruz and his mother linda received a visit from floridas department of children and families, after allegation of medical neglect. The investigator learned cruz suffered from depression, adhd and autism, cut his arms in a snapchat post and once plastered a racist message on his backpack. Cruz even says he plans to go out and buy a gun. Dcf closed the investigation after finding no evidence cruz was being mistreated. The dcs secretary said Mental Health services and supports were in place when this investigation closed. They tried to make him part of the family. They wanted him to feel that way. Reporter attorney jim lewis represents the family that took cruz in after his mothers death in november. They have no clue Something Like this was ever going to happen. They never would have taken him in and allowed him in their house. Reporter Broward County Sheriff Department records show linda cruz summoned deputies to her home 39 times since 2011. In 2013, she told police nikolas was throwing objects across the room. The next year, she claimed he punched a hole in the wall. Sheriff scott israel told a local tv station his deputies didnt have many options. This isnt science fiction. Were not allowed to arrest on what a person thinks about on crimes. He said, im going to kill you, im going to hurt your family. Reporter junior dana craig says she told School Security about threats cruz made against her after she advised cruzs then girlfriend to leave him. These things were being reported. When people were being targeted. They could have done more. Reporter the fbi has also apologized for mishandling a tip it received in january from someone who was concerned about cruz, his ownership of guns and the potential of committing a School Shooting. That tip never made it to fbi agents in the field. On average, the fbi tip line received about 2,100 tips a day. The more you hear, the more disturbing it is. Thank you, manuel. One of the missed warning signs is important. Because of that selfmutilation, harm to ones self, he could have been involuntarily committed. Had he been involuntarily committed, he would not have been able to purchase a gun. You say see something, say something. Many people did and nothing happened. Very tragic story. There will be funerals today for two more shooting victims, 14yearold alaina petty and 15yearold luke hoyer. Services will be held for five more victims later this week. 14 students and 3 adults were killed in wednesdays shooting. The community honored 14yearold alex schacter, 14yearold amy guttenberg yesterday. Beigels students say he tried to shield them from the gunman. The best teacher ever. Automatically made you smile no matter what he said, you know. He always had a comeback to everything. He was a great man. He was a hero to a lot of people. Four other people are still in the hospitals today. The Broward County sheriff visited 15yearold Anthony Borges who was shot five times. A go fund me page for his family says that anthony used his body to protect 20 of his classmates. President trump is turning his focus to school safety. He visited victims at a Florida Hospital friday. This wednesday, the president will hold a listening session with High School Students and teachers. And on thursday, he will meet with state and local leaders on school safety. Mr. Trump lashed out at the fbi during the weekend tweet storm. He wrote, very sad the fbi missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida School shooter. They are spending too much time trying to prove russian collusion with the Trump Campaign. There is no collusion. Errol barnett is traveling with the president and joins us from west palm beach. Errol, good morning. Reporter good morning. On twitter, President Trump appeared to be attacking everyone but russia, which the special counsel is accusing of waging Information Warfare against the u. S. This morning for the first time, the white house says the president is opened to improving the background check system, but its mr. Trumps tweets about the fbi and the School Shooting here in florida attracting the most attention. The reality of it is there are two separate issues. The president should be staying out of Law Enforcement business. Reporter republicans responded to President Trumps criticism of the fbi after he seemed to link the parkland shooting with the russia probe. In a flurry of tweets, the president criticized democrats for using russia as an election excuse. He called claims of Campaign Collusion a hoax. And said that the russia investigations were creating chaos in the u. S. Russias clearly tried to advance their agenda into the United States. Reporter the president s outburst followed special counsel Robert Muellers indictment friday against 13 russians for using social media to disrupt the u. S. Election. As you can see with the fbi indictment, the evidence is now really incontrovertible. Reporter the president S National Security adviser, h. R. Mcmaster, applauded muellers efforts. But President Trump shot back at his aide online, saying, quote, general mcmaster forgot to say that the results of the 2016 election were not impacted or changed by the russians. Now, we should note, muellers charges made no judgment on whether russian interference swung the election, but it did say russias efforts were designed to bolster mr. Trumps candidacy. Thank you very much, errol. This morning, the kremlin says theres no significant evidence that russia meddled in the election. The comments come as we learn more about russias socalled troll factory that generated fake social media posts. The special counsel says they were intended to undermine Hillary Clinton while supporting her opponents including donald trump. Elizabeth palmer is outside the building in st. Petersburg thought to be the center of the russian influence operation. Elizabeth, good morning. Reporter good morning. This rather ordinarylooking Office Building behind me was the headquarters of the troll factory, the by now infamous Internet Research agency named in the indictment. Which also says it was controlled by a kremlin insider and oligarch called evgeny prigozhin. Thats him with president bush during a state visit here in st. Petersburg in 2002. Several young activists filmed video inside the Internet Research agency. We spoke to one of them, lyudmila savchuk. She says she was shocked by the scale of the operation. As for the operation that targeted the u. S. , she says not only the 13 people named in the indictment should be prosecuted, but so should hundreds of others who were involved. The indictment says that in the runup to the u. S. Election, the Internet Research agency was working around the clock employing hundreds of people and spending more than 1 million a month. Norah. All right, Elizabeth Palmer in st. Petersburg, thank you. The cdc says there may be sign flu activity is leveling off but the threat is far from over. Most severe flu season in nearly a decade has taken a heavy toll. Its killed 84 children. About three quarters of them were not vaccinated. Our dr. Tara narula shows us how the virus can quickly turn deadly. Good morning. Tell us why the flu can become so dangerous. A lot of people wonder how can it be deadly . One of the mechanisms is ma kno pneumonia. Either by the flu virus itself or the bacteria that get into the small air sacks, cause inflammation, fluid. You can no longer Exchange Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide there. You have low levels of oxygen in the blood. What about sepsis . Sepsis is when you have an infection somewhat in the body. That infection can get in the bloodstream and spread throughout your body. Your Blood Pressure drops. You dont profuse your body with blood. You dont get it to critical organs. That can cause tissue damage, organ failure and death very quickly. I know you say sometimes with the flu, its almost like the virus or your body can have a reaction against your own body. One of the thinking is for young people healthy who suddenly died from the flu. Your body releases chemical messengers as part of the defense system. The problem is for some people, we dont know why, their reaction is too much. Its an overwhelming immune reaction. It causes damage to healthy tissue. Now you have almost like Collateral Damage in a war. And those healthy tissues in the lungs can fill with flow wuid. If im sick, how do i know when i should take action . Shortness of breath, rapid breathing, rapid heart beat, lethargy, confusion, youre Getting Better and suddenly you get worse. Get to the hospital quickly. Is it getting any better . Is it leveling off, as they say . We think it may be. But we still know theres time to get the vaccine. If you havent gotten it. Even though the effectiveness is about 36 overall against in this flu season, in children, six months to eight years, for age 3 and 2, it was about 59 affected. So please get the vaccine. Its worth it, yes, thank you, dr. Taraure narula. The u. S. Is struggling to keep up in the medal race at the Winter Olympics. Theyre one medal behind the olympic athletes from russia. Norway leads with 28. Its a far cry from the last four Winter Olympics when the u. S. Finished in the top two. Ben tracy is in pyeongchang, south korea, with how team usa is hoping to turn things around. Ben, good morning. Reporter good morning. Theyre certainly hoping to turn things around, add some more hardware to that medal count in the second and final week of these olympic games. And those medals could come courtesy of our athletes on skates. The dance party has gun. Ice dancing kicked off with three u. S. Pairs, including brother and sister due you mike ya maya and alex.

But the olympic are now over for this russian curler. He won a bronze medal but has tested positive for a banned substance. Its a big setback for russias hopes to rebound from its doping scandal, which led to most of its athletes being banned from these games. As you might imagine, doping is not something that is normally associated with the curling world. The head of russias Curling Federation says that it is possible his athletes food or drink had been spiked with a banned substance. Gayle. All right, ben tracy, thanks. John just said that at the table, why do you curling . You need strength for curling . I dont know. Thank you, ben tracy, in pyeongchang, great minds thinking alike. Push that thing down the ice. Lebron james says he will not just shut up and dribble.

Be cytoki say does that star spangled banner yet wave thats former black eyed peas singer fergie getting different reviews for her rendition. She gave a jazzy raspy voice. She shifted keys throughout the song. Some looked like whats happening. Many slammed the nontraditional performance. I saw one tweet that said expected her he to break out into a rendition of santa baby at any time, which i think was pretty good. Shes clearly trying something jazzy but she can sing. Shes trying something different. Not everybody appreciated it. It definitely struck a different tone but i applaud her trying to do it differently. She took a risk and we applaud risktaking. So glad she didnt sing the long version. Right. Youre right. Fergie can sing. All right. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Three things you should know. Richard gates expected to enter a plea deal.

Nba super star lebron james squaring off with a fox news host who told him not to speak out about politics. Last week, laura ingram criticized him for making comments about donald trump. She told him to quote shut up and double. We have a reporter here with how the champion is responding. Reporter lebron james never shies away. He campaigned with Hillary Clinton and last year called President Trump a bum. So, when laura ingram told him to shut up and dribble. He declined. The number one job in america, the point of person is someone who doesnt understand the people. Weal dont fgive a about people. He offered an unfiltered opinion of president donald trump. Must they run their mouth like that . Laura ingram called the comment barely intelligible and ungrammatic cal. This is what happens when you attempt to leave high school a year early to join the nba. Or as someone else said shut up and dibble. That means too much to the youth and so many kids that feel like they dont have a way out. Critics called ingrams comments racially charged. Stars spoke out like stefan cur r cur ray. Black leases in a box. Last nights nba all star game, the threetime nba champion addressed the issue. It would have been the same to tell Jackie Robinson to shut up and slide into home base. I cant do that. Because its so many people looking up to me and so many to come after me. In a statement, she defended her comment saying in 2003 i wrote a bestsellerle called shut up and ling. I ha sing. I have used that for years. There was no racial intent in my remarks. In december, she used the same expression to criticize comedian jimmy kimmel. Shut up and make us laugh. He said he was proud of the way james handled criticism and speaks out on social issues, james said he will continue to do so. In a tweet. Ingram invited him to play on her court and be a guest on her show. Lebron put an instagram picture saying im more than an athlete. John carlos, this is not new athletes speaking out. I have a feeling he will graciously decline her invitation. Graciously . Maybe not so graciously. Shocked if he goes. Also leaving aside the question of sports we have a president who came from a nontraditional place and people said stay in your place and a lot of people rallied behind him. Different place in politics. A major republican donor in florida is threatening to cut off funding to politicians who oppose a ban on assault weapons. In the wake of the shooting at Stoneman Douglas high school, he sent an email to other gop donors urging them to support a ban on assault weapons. We sat down with him at his florida home. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Longtime gop fundraiser and wealthy Real Estate Developer said he literally helped build this community but after last weeks deadly shooting he says his dollars and influence will now be determined by one major issue. When you first heard about that shooting, at a school, another School Shooting, what was your initial reaction. I was incredulous. I dont believe it. That feeling led 83yearold republican donor to stop contributing to his own parties candidates unless they support a change in the gun laws. I will not write a check for anyone who does not propose a ban on assaultstyle weapons. You were quoted as saying this particular shooting was the end of the road for you. Thats right. Why not a sandy hook . Well i have been after so many politicians to adopt legislation and always the answer is that well were working on it and nothing changes. The original federal assault weapons ban was passed in september of 1994 but expired ac after ten years. There were at least 17 attempts to renew or replace the ban, but none made it to a vote. And an effort to pass a permanent ban after the 2012 sandy hook massacre failed to get senate approval. Last friday hoffman wrote a l letter asking them to follow. I would support fiscally conservative person who supports the ban, and at this moment in time, i really dont care whether its a republican or democrat. Do you really believe something will change as a result of the parkland shooting . I dont know. I hope so. Just a start right now. I think we need to build the movement, and time and the lord willing, well accomplish something. Reporter hoffman says he also sent ant email to Florida Governor rick scott who is considering a senate run. He did not comment on the email but last week released a statement saying we have to make sure Something Like this never happens again. Gail . All right. We all hope something will change. Thank you very much. A womans job may be in jeopardy over an online video of her berating others about a crying baby on the plane. Ahead, how the passenger now regrets what happened.

We are in parkland, florida, thank you very much for joining us, this is painful and difficult and will continue this week. You are hailed a hero. You saved students at your own peril. Reports you were grazed on the cheeks by a bullet. You saw nikolas cruz reload his gone. What did you do and realize when this was not a drill . When i saw it was not a drill, first thing i yelled to the kids was to get to cover. When i was in the middle of the hallway at the time, and i saw him point his gun at one of my former students, and i saw him go down, and i grabbed all the kids i could and pushed into the the doors have an alcove, and i put them in there because it was the only cover i could find, and four, five shots later, it stopped, so thats when i looked saw him reloading the gun or something, to told the kids to run and left as fast as we could. You must be proud of your kids today, mr. Ross, people said this shooting feels different. These students are speaking outing and they are speaking out in ways we have not heard before. The kids at Stoneman Douglas have been terrific, not just the kids you heard speak, but i personally witnessed one of my kids holding the door, his name is peter wang, holding the door, pushing kids through the door with bullets coming at him. I dont know many adults who could have done that, let alone a 14yearold boy, and the response from our students who are still around and still able to talk, they are taking that opportunity. They are empowered, and they are angry. The president said hes going to have a listening tour in the wake of this. What would you want to tell him about your students and what youve experienced . Id want to say to the president that we have great kids. We have more great kids. We have 14 great kids who needed protection that we couldnt give them. I lost three kids in my class. I couldnt help them. I shouldnt have had to. Its one of those things that as a lifelong gun owner and hunter, im not saying we should stop the second amendment. Im not saying we should take guns away from people. Theres no point to somebody having an ar15, and if somebody wants to argue with me on that, thats cool. If you want an ar15, well go to the range. I get to shoot at you, i get to graze you with a bullet and catch you with fragments like i did, and then after that, if you still wanted to buy said weapon, cool. Then ill have you talk to a psychologist. That gun is just designed to kill people. The round itself is unstable and tumbles. Thats not normal. Thats in controversy of the Geneva Convention or a way around it. People need to know that and realize, especially the president , because he has the most power in the free world, in the world, and we need to do something to save these kids and protect our children. Not just my kids, but i have a 17 month old son at home. I dont want to have to send him to school facing this stuff. Im a 36yearold man having trouble dealing with it. I can only imagine what the kids are dealing with. We all are. Thank you for what you do as a teacher and joining us today. We appreciate it. Thank you. My pleasure. Thinking of you. President trump spent part of his weekend on twitter condemning any suggestion his president ial campaign colluded with russians. He wrote yesterday, quote, i never said russia did not meddle in the election. The russian hope was that the Trump Campaign colluded with russia. It never did. The president s commentings stem from the special counsels indictment on friday, accusing a dozen russians of carrying out a complicated meddling scheme to influence the 2016 election. The document alleges russians posed as americans and used social media to influence the vote. Two former Trump Associates were imp kated in the propose last year. Paula reid is following the developments. Good morning, palla. Good morning. The dust settled since friday, what do the indictments mean . Whats the most important thing to take away from this . This is different from the indictments and charges we have seen against others because no one here is likely to go to jail. Highly unlikely the russian government extradites their own citizens to face the charges. Legally speaking, the significance of this indictment is that it lays oh in specific details how the russians meddled in these elections and what crimes were committed under u. S. Law, because when you say they meddled, what exactly does that mean . Here Robert Mueller lays it out specifically. Sometimes its laying out messages on social media, engaging americans to engage in Political Activities or set up rallies. This is at the heart of the what he was tasked to do. When you look at it, and it surprises everybody, do you see tip of the iceberg or iceberg in what more he has to do . Tip of the iceberg. Hes laying the ground work here, explaining to the American People what happened, and theyll continue to investigate whether or not any americans knowingly participated in this. The Deputy Attorney general was out of it. He said theres no evidence in this indictment that any americans knowingly participated in this. We know from the indictment that the russians did work with americans. They paid people to do this. The big question now for investigators is, did anyone knowingly participate . Well, the president took to twitter saying, basically, hes been cleared, that hes out of the clear. Has he been cleared . Hes not been cleared. He also tweeted this began before his campaign the thats true. Theres no evidence or claim of collusion in this specific indictment, but this is one of many, and we know from sources that the investigation continues, specifically into whether there were Financial Transactions between the Trump Campaign and russia and question of obstruction of justice. Last week, investigators were talking again to steve bannon, trumps legal team and former spokesman. Investigation continues. Nobodys in the clear. The news this week is rick gates was a Business Partner of paul, likely to enter a plea deal. What does that mean in terms of his handing over information to the special counsel . Really turns up the heat on paul maniford, giving no indication hes expected to cooperate. One is expected to provide information about him, they were charged together and codefendants, all part of the strategy because, ultimately, they want maniford to cooperate and provide information on people higher up in the food chain. Thats really the goal. This is a way to turn up the heat. A lot of conversation about Robert Mueller keeping this top secret. None of this leaked out, which is extraordinary when you can be sold out for a bag of chips and a coke. Absolutely. If i could get this information for a bag of chip and a coke, i would do that. This is a man full of secrets and surprises. A lot of these charges are the indictment on friday came out of nowhere, people did not know. One way he does that is keeps all the teams in little silos, in little groups so if anything leaks out, he knows where it came from. Thank you very much, paula. Secretary of state tillerson said the United States is using large sticks to respond to the north korean threat. On 60 minutes he said efforts continue until the first bomb drops. He asked tillerson about reported disparaging remark about the president. Did you call the president a mor moron . Im not going to dignify the question. We have so many bigger issues we could be talking about. Im not from this town. I understand this town likes to talk about a lot of things that are really not important. Secretary of state also responded to reports about his potential resignation. He said, quote, the only person that knows whether im resigning or not is me. It was an excellent interview from start to finish. It was. Black panther is having one the biggest Opening Weekends ever, but this supe good morning. Dont let the sunlight fool you, it is a cold and windy day. The wind is not helping the chill factor. We have the cold arctic air that has arrived and it sending the temperatures down below average.

I mean, the outfit helps, but pretty great. Some spectacular crashes at this years Winter Olympics are raising questions about whether the games are becoming too dangerous. One example happened last week when a 16yearold japanese snowboarder suffered a scary collision in the half pipe competition. He avoided major injury. Dana jacobson is in pyeongchang to explain why some believe the olympics are pushing the limits too far. Dana, good morning. Good morning. Sean white needed four revolution this is year. A 1440. 12 years later in order to get the gold. Its also the same trick that earned him 62 stitches during a practice crash. Have they pushed the boundaries now too far . Broke my jaw really bad in two places. Ruptured spleen. Collapsed lung. Bruised heart. After nearly dying in a back country snowboarding accident, Mark Mcmorris feels lucky to do what he loves most. Catching air and soaking in what he calls ultimate joy. What is the first thing you remember from after the accident . When they took me out of the coma and everybody was standing there. They can talk, but they gave me a pen and paper. I wrote do i have brain damage and can i go to the olympics still . Not only did mcmorris make it to the olympics. He is the snowboard slope style bronze medalist. Its scary to try some of the tricks again. I need to remind myself, i got hurt in the back country hitting a tree. He didnt get hurt trying those crazy tricks. The Winter Olympics have most definitely gotten more dangerous. Historian david has attended every winter games since 1992. Lets face it, its good tv. To see people risking their health, their lives is great television. Sorry. The british journal of Sports Medicine studied the Winter Olympics and found that nearly 49 of all aerial skiers in those games suffered an injury. Many of the most dangerous sports akorkd ccording to the s are extreme sports, which made their debut in 2006. The International Olympic committee several years ago decided that they were losing the youth audience. Not a lot of americans watch biathl biathl biathlon, but they will watch snowboarding, and so they just kept adding these. I think theyre going to get harder and harder until at some point somebody suffers a complete paralysis during an Olympic Event or actually dies. 24yearold mark mcfor is says his sport has skyrocketed in complexity since he started competing. , but he doesnt believe his sport should change. Mark mcmorris says its the passion for his sport that drives him to keep trying new tricks. We should point out, there has never been a death during olympic competition. Our request to the ioc for comment went unanswered. Gale. All right, dana jacobson. Thank you. Very different way of looking at watching the olympics. I just want to see good competition. You mean not if someone is going to die . Thats not top of mind for me. I just think im marveling at the ability they have and how they pull this off. Another way to look at it. Thank you, dana, reporting from south korea. Coming up next, did Kate Middleton send a message about the me too movement with the dress she wore on the red carpet the other day .

And the wall street journal reports that Toy Companies want to cut production times like some fast fashion businesses. Toy Companies Like mattel and hasbro are scrambling to capture social media trends seen in internet memes and viral videos. Rapid turnaround times help them profit on fastmoving fads. The u. S. Toy industry only grew 1 . Illegally buying advertising. The Russian Organization employed hundreds of people and had an annual budget of millions of dollars. The russian propaganda included ads like this one by the socalled army of jesus linking Hillary Clinton to the devil. The special counsel says russians also organized events like this anticlinton rally called down with hillary. Facebook estimates 126 million americans have seen russia linked posts. Cbs news contributor Nicolas Thompson is editor in chief of wired good morning. How much to blame is facebook for having disseminated a lot of this propaganda . Complicated question. Clearly russia used facebook extensively. Should facebook have caught that still under intensive debate, and you can argue from the details of the mueller indictment. You could argue it was well disguised. Whats fas naurting if you dive into this indictment, what they did with facebook, they were organizing rallies. They made up these groups and people showed up to the rally. Theyre organizing rallies, and theyre targeting purple states, right . Theres a fake account created in the name of a fake american who is emailing Tea Party Supporters saying we want to organize in purple states. Lets get a rally going. Purple states meaning battleground states. We know that Hillary Clinton lost essentially the electoral vote by about 80,000 votes in key battleground states. It was a very close election. The question is did this make any difference in that . We should note that Facebook Says to your point about cooperating that they are continuing to work closely with the fbi, the department of homeland security, and other companies on better ways engage more actively in democracy. Its not all the social media platform. Can dhe say that, or are they just too much on the defensive . I just wrote a story about facebook. One of the people is quoted as saying the problem is not facebook. Its people. Right . And there is truth to that. Right . We should not have been susceptible to all of this garbage. Absolutely. Of course, the emotional things that the russians played on facebook hopes to use those emotions to keep people locked in. I mean, right. The most incredibly sophisticated platform for the most emotional way possible because thats what makes advertising work. Its also what makes political propaganda work. That suggests that people who are not smart were open to this type of propaganda, there was a twitter account called ten under score gop, which reported to be tennessee republicans. Everyone from Kellyanne Conway to donald trump jr. To Michael Flynn all retweeted these fake twitter accounts that were made by these russian trolls. People packed across the country to see the new superhero movie. The film has raked in an estimated 192 million in the u. S. And canada. That makes it the fifth highest grossing Opening Weekend in hollywood history. Tarika duncan shows how the black panther is making its mark as a cultural phenomenon. The big cat is out of his cage and pouncing on the big screen. Black panther is the latest in a long line of marvel superheroes turned movie stars, and this one has fans in a feline frenzy. Fantastic. Easily the best matsrvel movie. I was so looking forward to the movie the trailer came out. Typically movie superheroes, whether men of steel, gods of thunder, or dark knights are white. When those audiences intersect, theres super excitement. I would love this country too. The film holds special meeting for many longtime fans and particularly for Ariel Johnson. I feel like i might actually leave the movie comatosed. Its one of the first black women to open a comic bookstore on the east coast. She opened amalgam comics and coffee house a little more than two years ago. Shes been waiting for film like black panther since she fell in love with comic books as a girl. When did your love for superheroes begin. I always liked superheroes, but it wasnt until i was about is 11 or so that i was actually introduced to the xmen and the thing that really grabbed me was storm. Something clicks whether you see yourself reflected back at you. This isnt the first time a black comic book hero was the lead role in a film. The threepart blade series beginning in the late 1990s started wesley sniepz. Like in hollywood terms. But usually when the movie is a black movie, white audiences dont see it. But thats not the case with black panther. The box office tells the tale of the film success. This weekend it brought in nearly it00 million, and it set the record for a live action superhero movie on Rotten Tomatoes with a score of 97 . I knew for a fact that it was going to be a huge success. John jennings is a professor of media and Cultural Studies at the university of california riverside, and he is the coauthor of black comics returns. The fictional wakonda. A lot of these films that weve seen before, like 12 years a slave or precious or Something Like that are dealing with heavy subjects that are depositing bhak suffering as essential mode of existence. A celebration was at the end of that trauma. This is about black joy. It would be in the season. For cbs this morning, jarika duncan, california. Thats why its so exciting. I thought Ariel Johnson made a good point. Normally when its a black cast and black crew, its designed for black addences. Its a black movie, no question. Its a great movie. This shows this. Thats important. Reporting from the back seat of my sons car with his friends, it was a huge debate about vibranium. They loved the movie and whats inside of it as much as his sister loved the message. Im assuming your son is white. Yes. That makes a point. Its just the first weekend. Thats whats so exciting, nora.

Team usa is looking to sweep the mens free ski halfpipe competition at the Winter Olympics. The event mads its winter debut at the 2014 olympics in sochi. Qualifying rounds begin tonight. Torin yater has a cool name. Torin yaterwallace hopes to make it onto the podium. Don dahler shows us how he overcame lifethreatening obstacles on his journey to the olympics. Don, good morning. Good morning. Time and again torin yaterwallace has defied the odds on the halfpipe but its not the life and death sport thats brought him challenge. Two years ago he was on the brink of death due to an illness and he fought back and now he is chasing redemption. The freedom and just the expression of yourself that you have when youre essentially just kind of creating your own path. Just that feeling of accomplishment when youve landed the perfect run. I mean theres nothing like it. Whether its just tricks or just catching air off of a little cliff. Torin yaterwallace knows how to catch air and float in control as he flies off a 22foot high wall. His deathdefying tricks on the halfpipe makes him one of the most decorated skiers on the run. Yaterwallaces packet to gold seemed inevitable. But days before the game, his mother was diagnosed with cancer, and following an accident during a routine treatment he suffered a collapsed young. Yaterwallace finished a disappointing 26th place. Your most lifethreatening moment didnt happen on a mountain. It happened because of a tiny little microbe. But you almost were gone. You know, its often a hard time to think about. To do a dangerous sport that people have lost their life in competing in. My biggest life event was an infection to my internal organs. I was on full life support and really was on the brink of death. Reporter in 2015 yaterwallace developed a rare infection in his liver and gallbladder that put him in a tenday medically induced coma. Did you know at that time you were so close . I was in and out with a few doctors at the time and they said, you have a flu virus, hears tamiflu and things got worse and worse.
