Sony lost tens of millions of dollars after pulling the movie the interview. Major garrett is at the white house with new details on how hacker caused so much damage. Major, good morning.

Response at his end of the year News Conference scheduled for 10 30 a. M. Pacific right here in the briefing room. Sources tell cbs news the sophisticated and damaging cyberattack occurred in north korea and flowed through a vast array in other countries, that in an attempt to hide its origin. Senior Officials Say iran is another suspect although others may have been involved. And evidence is still being sifted. The activity that were seeing here is destructive with clear malicious intent. Reporter in addition to finding the source of the biggest shot fired so far in a cyberwar on his watch, president obama has been reviewing retaliatory options. Top Officials Say they would be proportional but not necessarily noticeable. We believe that, you know, destructive activity merits an appropriate response. I would acknowledge an appropriate response is not something thats always obvious. You want us to kill the leader of north korea . Yes. Whaaat . Reporter the biggest casualty, the canceled Christmas Day release of the interview, a slapstick farce in a plot to kill north Korean Leader kim jongun. Arizona senator john mccain called the cyberattack a wakeup call. For government and business.

Reporter California Republican ed royce, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs committee, faulted hollywood for failing to stand with Sony Pictures.

At no time Officials Say that the state Department Officials dictate changes to the script. Norah . All right, major. Thank you so much. Were going to bring you the president s News Conference. In a cbs news special report. It is scheduled for 10 30 this morning pacific time. And well also have live coverage on our cbs News Digital Network cbsn on cbsnews. Com. Hollywood is sounding off. More stars from tv and film are slamming the studios movie. Elaine quijano is here with how many are concerned with the Chilling Effect that that could have. Elaine, good morning. Reporter good morning. In tinseltown the reaction is mixed. Some stars are voicing their concerns over whether this decision will set a dangerous precedent in hollywood, with major consequences for expression and personal liberty. While others say sony had no other options. The billboards for sonys the interview are gone but the outcry over the studios controversial decision to pull the film is really just beginning. When you really start to think about it, the ramifications of this, wow. As an artist in this industry i feel awful that any kind of creative expression has been shut down. In any way, shape or form. Its something that just shouldnt happen. Im so disappointed. I wanted to see the movie. I think this is the wrong thing to do. Thats it . So kim jongun gets to decide what movies we make . Were going to north korea reporter the film was slated to debut in thousands of theaters nationwide on Christmas Day, but that changed after five major theater chains canceled their screening. I am the great kim jongil reporter in an apparent show of defyiancedefiance select theaters announced they would replace the world with Team America World police, another film that depicts the north korean dictator.

For now, sony has dashed hopes of a video on demand release option. Neither of the stars of the movie, seth rogen or james franco, have cometed on social media since the films release was canceled. Charlie . Thanks. A scathing report this morning says the u. S. Secret service is starved for leadership. An independent panel says the agency needs to make immediate changes to the white house fence. Bill plante is on the white house lawn with concerns about protecting the president. Bill, good morning. Reporter good morning. And good morning to our viewers in the west. Its been a pretty rough patch for the secret service. Charges of misconduct some embarrassing security lapses like that fence jumper who made it into the white house last fall. That 7 1 2 foot fence around the white house grounds is all too easy to scale. The report recommends replacing it as soon as possible with a fence four or five feet higher and carved at the top. On november 19th, suspect Omar Gonzalez made it over the fence and into the east room of the white house before he was apprehend. The agencys acting director Joseph Clancy addressed that incident and a host of other issues the agency faces at a hearing last month. I openly acknowledge that a failure of this magnitude, especially in light of other recent incidents requires immediate action and longer term reform. Reporter but, say the panelists, the problems exposed by recent events go deeper than a new fence can fix. What the secret Service Really needs, says this latest report is new leadership. Because its too insular and needs to strengthen the culture of accountability. The rank and file and very senior members do not have confidence that discipline is imposed in a fair and consistent manner. The Panel Recommends that the next director be someone from the outside but with a Law Enforcement or military background. Both the Uniformed Division that protects the white house grounds and the agents who protect the president and top officials are shortstaffed. The report calls for 200 more uniformed officers and 85 agents plus increasing regular, on the job training which has now fallen below acceptable levels. The panel made many other recommendations about technology and operations which are classified. They also suggested candidates to take over as the new director. And an appointment thats expected very soon. The report notes that some of the changes were suggested years ago. And not acted on. Homeland security secretary jay johnson says this time must be different. All right, bill, thank you. Important report. Sources tell cbs news three isis leaders were killed in iraq. One of them is identified as hazi mutazz a highranking official in the terror group who used to be an iraqi army colonel under saddam hussein. Attacks over the past month also killed the head of isis operations in iraq and a midlevel commander in the Northern City of mosul. Defense officials believe the strikes significantly weaken the isis leadership in iraq. This morning many u. S. Businesses are making plans to get into cuba. Theyre hoping for a big boost in trade after that historic decision to restore diplomatic relations between the two countries. Adriana diaz is there. In havana right now where cuban also expect great things from closer ties with the u. S. Adriana, good morning. Reporter good morning. While American Companies can look forward to one day doing business with cuba an unbrideled sense of optimism has unleashed on the streets of havana, where the future now looks more promising than ever. Oliga hernandez owns a restaurant near the center of havana. For Business Owners like her, the gravity of raul castros speech is starting to set in. Its such a huge step, she said. For cuba, it will be very good. With a business dependent on dollars, he shops more will visit cuban shores once travel restrictions are lifted. We started off with room for 25. Now we can seat 50 and maybe in a few years well seat 100. Its not just cuban entrepreneurs that are optimistic. Major American Companies including mastercard, cisco, marriott, pepsi, and Major League Baseball have all shown interest in doing business in cuba. Its a move that could rapidly transform a country virtually frozen in time since the u. S. Embargo was imposed in 1960. The u. S. Embargo has hurt cuba tremendously. It has hurt the average cuban on the streets. Reporter this man remembers cuba before the embargo. Were really grateful to the u. S. Government, he says, to president obama and president raul for improving relations. Here in the market, shoppers have a sense of relief. Knowing half a century of ams noty may come to a close. More clothes, more food. Much cheaper. For the majority of cubans who have become accustomed to life under the embargo, this weeks news provided hope for future. Its a new beginning because the u. S. Is such a close neighbor, so powerful, so wealthy, so large, and this provides cuba with an opportunity. To begin a new stage in its life. Repairing relations strained by more than 50 years of cold war tension wont happen overnight so for now the embargo remains in place. For that reason many cubans remain cautiously optimistic but take comfort knowing change is finally within their grasp. Stocks are higher again this morning after a big turnaround in the market. The Dow Jones Industrial average is trading around 18,000. It has been a wild ride this week. The index saw big drops before surging wednesday and thursday. It jumped 321 points yesterday alone. Cbs News Business analyst Jill Schlesinger is here. Good morning. Good morning. Whats behind this . I think its A Janet Yellen rally. The Federal Reserve says theyre not likely to increase the Interest Rates any time soon. If youre really parsing the statement, it looks like somewhere in the middle of next year and that was a greats relief to investors who were worried they were going to pull it forward into the first quarter. Were also seeing a little bit of calm around the oil market. Although oil has plunged. Janet yellen said something really important in her press conference. She said Oil Price Drop is transitory meaning its going to be okay, everyone relax about it. And finally yesterday morning, Vladimir Putin actually helped markets i cant believe im saying this because he basically said the russian government would intervene and help prop up the russian currency. That, together gave us a fabulous twoday rally, on track now for a real santa class rally. Boy. We heard him talking about bears that this is affecting the stock market here. So whats your suggestion for investors now . I think its hard. If you bailed out at some point in the last few years, its hard to figure out how to get back in. I would say if you can, develop some sort of game plan and force yourself to get back on track. Now, heres the thing. If youre a longterm investor, these gyrations, who cares. Youre in it for the long term. You dont worry about it. It is part of being an investor. Its interesting what its doing to states across the country texas, which theres talk about a recession in texas. This is interesting. Oil prices plunging 45 in six months. I think a lot of people have predicted oil prices would drop. But its two factors. A slowdown in places like japan, china, europe. But its the production side here in the u. S. Thats huge. And if some of the Big Oil Producers decide to cut back on that production it could hurt big Oil Producing states like texas and north dakota. I thought it was interesting, what you said about the texas realtors association. They came out and said next year, if Oil Prices Stay at these levels next year, oil prices could drop 12 in texas. For homes . For homes. This is really important about this, i dont want to be look at the dark side of this because overall lower oil is good for most consumers. Its not good if you live in texas or dakota. Thank you, jill. Good to see you. This morning one of the late night tvs most original characters, that would be Stephen Colbert, is gone. He ended a nineyear run last night with a final burst of truthiness with some very famous friends. One of them is at the table. Its not you, jill. Hell take over the theatre next year.

Reporter but colbert will shed that character when he takes over the late show from David Letterman who plans to step down next year. Obviously im thrilled to be taking over. Im thrilled as well. Reporter Stephen Colberts final show may have lacked the emotional goodbye many expected. But it featured many of his piercing sarcasm his fans have grown to love. And if all we achieved over the last nine years was to come into your home each night and helped make your difficult day a little bit better, man, what a waste. Reporter David Letterman will be leaving the late show in late may and leaving behind a number of traditions that began late in the 90s. And one of those traditions will end tonight.

Time to show you some of this mornings headlines. An investigation by usa today finds Police Across the country have stopped pursuing accused felons because they fled their state. Police told the fbi they stopped chasing nearly 79,000 accused fugitives in the last year and a half. The suspects are wanting for serious offenses including Sexual Assault and burglary. Authorities usually give up chasing fugitive because they do not want to spend the time or money needed to get them back. The boston globe reports on the marathon bombing suspect first appearance in court in a year and a half. 21yearold Dzhokhar Tsarnaev appeared in court. Jury selection is scheduled to begin january 5th. The Washington Post says major security flaws threaten billions of cell phone users. It allows hackers to listen to your phone calls or intercept your text messages. A Global Cellular Network designed in the 19 0s is said to be riddled with vulnerabilities. The Arizona Republic says a Court Decision will let immigrants known as dreamers apply for drivers licenses starting on monday. A federal judge ordered the state of arizona to stop denying the license to dreamers who have the right to work. Politico covers the dismissal of a petition by the federal Communications Division dismissed a petition claiming that the Washington Redskins name is obscene.

They say marijuana is overflowing into other states. Businesses in the windy city this morning face a growing threat blowing through their doors. Robbers are using a tactic called crash and grab. Their target chicagos upscale shopping district the magnificent mile. Dean reynolds in in chicago with the video. Good morning. Reporter good morning. And good morning to our viewers in the west. Well, as youre about to see, crash and grab burglaries are not terribly sophisticated. They involve blunt force and a big pay off. They certainly give new meaning to the term breaking and entering. As these surveillance videos show, all you need to pull off a crash and grab is a stolen car and the determination to drive through glass storefronts or even brick walls to get what you want. The heists have taken place at Louis Vuitton noom neemp marcus and other expensive store, usually overnight when theyre closed, and foot traffic outside is minimal. Teams of thieves basically grab anything they can get their hands on before stealing away. Are they causing immense financial damage . Right some retailers have lost in excess of 100,000. Reporter the cook county Attorney Says about a dozen high end, as well as low end establishments, have been hit during this Christmas Holiday shopping season. Its tough to catch people because they dont spend a lot of time. Even if there is surveillance video, like i said, many times theyre disguised. They have the mask over their face so you really cant identify them. Reporter its expected the thieves will attempt to resell the stolen merchandise. Tania trish is with the Illinois Retail research association. Good oldfashioned crime and theft is still around. People are trying to be more creative, being a little more brazen, taking a lot more risk to gain more. It doesnt matter if theyre located on the magnificent mile or in the neighborhoods. Everyones taking precautions and doing what they can to make sure shoppers and employees are safe. Reporter so far there have been only two arrests and while no one has been injured, as long as thieves are using cars as a weapon, Law Enforcement believes its only a matter of time before someone is seriously hurt or even killed. Its absolutely true. Im amazed at how bold and brazen they are when they know theyre being videotaped. Nobody seems to care. And that you cant trace that car back very easily to the suspects. Its only a matter of time. Theyre going to get caught. Dean, we thank you. Police in los angeles this morning are looking for whoever is behind that devastating arson attack. We showed you the flames billowing from this construction site last week. The developer of the wouldbe apartments is no stranger to controversy. Danielle nottingham shows us the painstaking look for clues as investigators try to piece together what happened. Downtown l. A. On fire. Reporter the multistory fire that tore through the da vinci apartment complex last week is now thought to be an act of arson. After sifting through 75,000 square feet of charred debris investigators say theyve recovered sufficient evidence to eliminate all known accidental causes and determine the fire was intentionally set. The structure was destroyed in a matter of hours, causing over 30 million in damage. Arson was suspected early on because of how quickly the flames engulfed the massive 1. 3 million square foot complex. I talked to the crew that went to the fire and upon leaving their quarters which is literally across the street this structure was heavily involved in fire. Thats unusual to have that much fire all at the same time. Reporter investigators are now trying to track down two potential witnesses. One was captured by a surveillance camera close to the scene. The other, appearing to try to climb through a construction fence outside the still burning building. Real estate developer jeff palmer owns the da vinci. His downtown l. A.

Bugger off well, it takes some effort to be a bahumbug as Bridget Jones but our morning rounds offers remedies for the blues. Wall street journal Elizabeth Bernstein polled experts and psychologists in grief and happiness. How to shake it off. Good morning. Whats behind the holiday blues that some people feel . Theres a lot of the regular things, stress of shopping and partying and trying to get your work done, get out of town. Those kinds of things. There are serious things that people dont talk about so much. If youve lost a loved one, if youre alone its a hard season if you see your parents getting older. All sorts of real things. Thats all great. I do have to say, though elizabeth, i realized Charles Manson had a partner and i didnt. Okay. Big problem. That is hard for me to think. Of. On facebook and instagram, everybody is happy. Well behaved children. Avoid it during the Holiday Season because nobody is putting up their real life. Oh, i was in bed all day with a cold. You say there are some things you can help you recapture the joy. And you say, first, cognitive reframe. What is that . Its changing the way you think about whats happening to you over the Holiday Season. So we look at the tv ads and the catalogs and everybody is perfect and everybody is getting a giant suv with a big bow on it. Its not true. Remind yourself, you know i remember when i had good holidays. I remember when i had bad one this is an okay one. You try to remind yourself its not all perfect for everybody. Change your routine. Change your routine. Think about others. Exactly. Think about other people which is a own way to get out of your own head. The one i love is do somethng awesome. This is interesting because theres a lot of research that shows that when you do something awesome and thats like you can look at the mountains, take a walk, by the beach, go to a symphony. When you do something that is larger than life and really beautiful it helps you be more social, it helps you be more empathic. What would fall into the do something awesome . Listen to great music. Go look at the sunset. Do something for others really. Really does make a difference. It makes a huge difference. Even just reaching out to everybody. I reached out to a friend who i didnt usually i did not expect them to be having a terrible thanksgiving and he was and i felt good for saying come with me, lets go. Made me feel better. Great advice. Thank you, elizabeth. Happy holidays to you. Yes. Feeling awesome . Yes. Recapture the joy . Yes. I hope so. Thank you. Only on cbs this morning, vinita takes us inside a Ground Breaking grocer. Good morning. 12 years ago most people had never heard of Online Grocery delivery but now it is popping up in cities across the nation. Coming up inside fresh direct one of the biggest grocers delivering groceries across the coast. And coming up, monday, rewriting the future with new technology. Im John Blackstone in the redmond Washington Lab where microsoft creates prototypes for new hardware. One of the Ground Breaking devices theyve been working on here is called the pen. Well look at efforts to keep handwriting alive in the digital age. Coming up monday on cbs this morning. Cbs morning rounds sponsored by bre you tonight. Ddenly youre a mouthbreather. Well, put on a breath strip and instantly open your nose up to 38 more than cold medicines alone. So you can breathe and sleep. Shut your mouth and sleep right. Breathe right. Its cookie time.

Get your betty on patented Sonic Technology with up to 27 more brush movements. Get healthier gums in two weeks. Innovation and you Philips Sonicare save when you give Philips Sonicare this Holiday Season. Giant retailers like walmart and amazon see groceries as their next frontier in ecommerce but only on cbs this morning vinita nair takes us inside an Online Grocery service showing up at front doors for more than a decade. Shes crowd side our front door at the broadcast center. Vinita, hello. We ordered these growries from freshdirect last night and were able to schedule a delivery during the show. Guys, ill im about to bring you some breakfast. Lets do it. Lets deliver some groceries. Its 6 00 in the morning and freshdirect drivers raymond and jonathan are making their way to new york citys west side. All the groceries theyre delivering were ordered by customers online. Everything from paper towels and cases of bottled water to sushi grade seafood and homemade pastries. Its very deck danlt. Adent chocolate. Its all produced here. Ceo Jason Ackerman cofounded the business 12 years ago. When you first came up with the idea did you say . Even my wife said you know im notice going to be buying this because i want to pick out my own food. A lot of people said we couldnt accomplish this. And now . Well he had an idea what an Online Business should be. Rather than deliver groceries for a supermarket he built freshdirect independently sourcing food directly from farms. Thats kind of what were shooting for. Reporter cofounder David Mcinerney still visits each vendor, and he still leads a team that tastes more than 600 fruits and vegetables. They cut them open taste them and rate them. Its a Rating System that helps customers buy produce sight unseen. Nationwide groceries are a 700 billion industry but online sales make up less than 4 . Brad stone, a Senior Writer for Bloomberg Businessweek says the move online is the next frontier. I think over the next decade the grocery Delivery Market really starts to mirror the ecommerce market. We see it starts small but we see an increasing percentage of these transactions happening online. Reporter its why retailers like amazon and walmart are breaking in. Along the west coast, green amazon fresh trucks have been making deliveries for seven years. Theyre now popping up along the east coast including brooklyn and philadelphia. Amazon charges an annual subscription free to deliver groceries. Walmart has customers can describe up to key of courses and get their groceries. Customers in california and colorado can have a selection of items delivered to their door with walmart to go. Freshdirect also charges a premium, around 6 to 8 per delivery. But for working parents, the added cost is worth it. Weve done the calculations a couple of times and it really is not that big of a difference but its a huge cost savings in terms of the time we spend for a convenience. How do you guys manage to keep that balance between cheaper food that people can access but also covering your heavy overhead . The model we developed was about eliminating every inefficiency that exists. If you go to the Grocery Store everything is precut and laid out because when you go there you want to have a sense there is a bounty of food. We only cut it when you order it. Its made to order and less waste. Reporter its only available in five states along the east coast. Ackerman said the company would love to expand but not at the expense of quality. Thats why theyre constantly monitoring online reviews, even ones from their toughest critics. My wife still says she buys the service because she loves the service, not because shes my wife. Shes very satisfied, so i know were doing something right. In a city like manhattan they tell us parking tickets are something they have to factor in. In the first year they amassed 600,000 in parking ticketet. Its much less now. We made sure they had a nice spot. I brought you guys some breakfast. Look. Its revolutionized. To be able to order online and choose time, it is a bit pricier than going to the store but its helpful. I think its helpful. Are you married to the owner too . He said hids wife uses it because she likes it. Clearly norah does too. To be told you cant do something in business and youre forging ahead. Again and again.

Cant do it. Do you want me to take a new guy on this . Got to learn some time. Peter. My explanation, 20 less likely to pull this off without you. 20 more likely to lose guys. Im sorry. Rupert friend good morning. Good morning. You found a lot of faps withns with this show here at this table. What gave it away the drooling . Its great. So many people i have watched the first couple of seasons. I have not caught up on this season. Everyone keeps saying its the best season to date. Yeah weve had a lot of that, which is great because i think everyone wanted this season to be something of a reboot. And i think, you know killing your lead actor is a pretty brave and potentially scary thing to do. I still havent come to grips with brodies death, to be honest. He hasnt either. I keep thinking hes going to come back you know. Yeah it was just a fake rope. I know. I know. Tell us how you see quinn. I think quinn in many ways is kind of the moral compass of the show, which is a strange thing to say about someone who kills people for a living. But i think when youve lived a life that dark and started to question it youre oddly perhaps more uniquely place to sit in judgment over the actions of what everyone else is doing, particularly in this particular example of a world of drone strikes and how does he see her . Meaning carrie . Yes. I always think those two, theyre just theyre like something you shouldnt want but you do. I mean name your food stuff, your poison. Is it true that you were only supposed to be in one or two episodes and then you got on the screen and they went, whoa . Is that true . The whoa part im not going to expound on. But, no one scene. One scene. And then it was take to North Carolina and you dont know what youre doing. And then i eventually found out youre going to kill brodie and then i wasnt and now im back and now im back again. Had you been watching the show before you got that one scene, so you liked it . Its the only show i watched. Do you watch it now . No i stopped when i came on. Why why, rupert . I cant think of anything id like to do less than watch myself on television or films. Its not appealing to me. Its such a complex drama in so many ways but it also, because of some of the parallels with whats happening in the world. Yeah. Do you struggle with that at all . No, i mean, i think its occasionally incredibly coincidental how there will be events in life that echo the things that weve just been playing out. I dont think its in any way reflective of them. It just seems to be coincidental that its happening. Does amy watch it . No. I think she would find it as weird as i would. Amy is your lovely fiance who is in the green room. Congratulations to you both. Thank you. Would she say youre as ro mabt tick as the characters in the play . You were in pride and prejudice, you were in the the young victoria. Yeah. Would she say that about you . One of the guys died at 40. None of them have really but he kills the bad guy. He does kill the bad guys. Yeah, i definitely would do that. Had you ever shot a gun before you were on this show much less assemble a pipe bomb . No no. So many things have been new. I had broken into a few houses. And what do you attribute the strength of this program to . I mean, clearly the acting is great. Is it the plot line . I think it starts with the great writing. For me what always interested me about the writers is they deliberately paint themselves into corners so they will kill the lead they will kind of bring two people together and then rent them asundayer and do it in a way that leaves you wondering what the hell could happen next. They want that. Protagonists too. Thats true. Listen, you and carrie are alone with no backup thats leading to the finale on sunday. I cant wait to see how its going to turn out. Hes not going to give us anything. I just want you to survive. And her, too. Thank you. Youre welcome. You can catch the Season Finale of homeland sunday on show time, a division of cbs. Coming up surprising story behind a holiday music tradition. David letterman says christmas does not begin until darlene love since christmas baby please come home. Tonight shes going to perform it one last time on davids David Letterman does not retire from the late show until may but tonight he hosts one last performance of a holiday tradition. Music legend darlene love since christmas, baby please come home for the 21st and final time today. She sat down with Vladimir Duthiers at the ed sullivan theatre right here in new york city. Reporter over the past 28 years on the late show with David Letterman, one voice has ushered in the Holiday Season. Tonight darlene love will take this stage for a final time. The energy when you walk in that building to do this show that kind of energy is there all the time. I have no idea what theyre going to do this year. You dont know . I know what im going to look like but thats about it. Fabulous, as always. Reporter it was that Something Special letterman spotted in the 80s when love performed in new York City Club with paul schaeffer. Two nights later david asked paul, are you still doing that showdown town . Yes, yes. That song that Christmas Song that that girl sings in that show is fantastic. She was killing it every night. And he was blown away. He asked her to come on his show. The best thing about the holidaying is a visit from our next guest. Reporter love thought it would be a onetime deal but kept getting invited back again and again. After about five or six years of doing that on the show they started calling me the Christmas Queen because everybody loved that christmas album. Reporter over the years shes performed with everyone from an air force chorus to a flying saxophonist. Your voice, it hasnt really changed. Thats paul schaeffer. He is such genius. In 28 years, this year i will be doing that show we changed keys maybe four times. Then when you see the hairstyles, jesus, keep me near the cross. One thing weve learned is that it doesnt matter what we do because shes going to come out and just wail. You know what, i havent been this excited in so long. I think ive got about three hours sleep last night. Reporter just like the good songs, just like the holidays even the best things sometimes have to come to a close. How will you be feeling . Try not to think about it because i want to be able to sing great and i cant sing and cry. But when the song ends is probably when im going to get very emotional because it is the last time that were doing that song after 28 years. Thats unheard of. The late show is keeping the details of tonights performance uner dewraps but darlene did send us this picture of her gearing up backstage. Norah . Wow. What a great story. How fabulous. 28 years.
