0 brian? >>brian: are you tougher than a boy scout? steve and i will take on that challenge. we'll see if we can be weeblows at that point and see who gets the "fox & friends" merit of honor, if anyone. we are not forceed to hand out if we are not worthy. who starts the fire? "fox & friends" starts. who starts the fire? i'm done. >>steve: the boy scouts starting that fire out there did it the old-fashioned way. >>gretchen: they have a reality show coming up? is that what we're talking about here? they're going to put you guys to the test to see how you guys stack up against the boy scouts. i'm sure you'll be fantastic. >>brian: you could drop me on a mountain with nothing but my wallet, and i'm fine. >>gretchen: your wallet on a mountain? exactly what you need on a mountain? >>brian: i could survive with anything. >>gretchen: pay off a billy goat for a ride down. >>brian: exactly. >>steve: we have two tasks. one, start a fire. plus one of us is going to have to carry the other one off with a device we concoct in less than 90 seconds. they are going to beat us bad. how bad? stay tuned for that. >>gretchen: we start with your headlines. the star of the controversial mtv reality show "buck wild" has been found dead. >> my parents, if it wasn't for them, i wouldn't be here. >> shane gets wild and crazy, but he loves his job. >> police found shane gandee, his uncle and friend in a ford bronco, last seen sunday around 4 a.m. leaving a bar to go four-wheeling. >> the cause of death is still under investigation. no foul play is suspected. >>gretchen: mtv saying we are shocked and saddened by the terrible news. shane gandee was 21 years old. >> courthouses and prosecutors getting around the clock protection as police search for who murdered the mcclellans. police are turning attention to a white supremacist gang. >> she made the statement to me she didn't think that was going to be all the killings, the guy that got killed over there. i said what about mike? do you think he's safe? she said i'm not really worried about mike. >>gretchen: a warning about the white supremacist group saying they may target police and prosecutors, in december. the man suspected of killing colorado's prison chief should have been behind bars, but because of a clerical error he had been released. in 2008 he pleaded guilty to assaulting a prison guard and sentenced to four years on top of the eight he was serving. but the sentence was put in the computer system wrong, so in january he was free. he was killed in a shootout with police in texas. the gun found at the scene was matched to the crime scene in colorado. >> a former american radical convicted of killing three people now holds a prestigious position at columbia university? according to this morning's new york post, he is an adjunct professor in the school of social work. she was the get-away driver in an armored car robbery in 1919 that left two cops in a brinks car dead. she was released on parole in 2003. those are your headlines today. >>steve: i remember that case. new overnight, north korea threatening to restart activity at its main nuclear complex just as a u.s. naval destroyer capable of intercepting and shooting down missiles has been sent to the region. kelly wright has been scrambled. he's live with the very latest. >> steve, good morning to you. brian and gretchen as well. tensions are very high right now and there is concern that north korea's actions could spark some sort of conflict. the latest provocative act from north korea state tv showing something that is very disturbing. it shows north korean troops conducting a live fire exercise. you're looking at it. targeting cutouts of u.s. soldiers as targets. north korea continues to make daily threats against the u.s. and south korea. the north is threatening to carry out a nuclear strike on the u.s. and go to war with south korea. the united states is sending more military assets into the region. the pentagon confirms the u.s.s. john s. mccain, a navy destroyer ship, has been deployed to the region. this ship can shoot down missiles, and add to that u.s. f-22 rap tor fighter jets are already in the region now participating in joint military exercise of south korea's military. the white house is keeping a close watch on north korea's actions and commanders if the north carries out any attack they are ordered to respond immediately. >>brian: we have to find out where this is going. it costs us ao lot of money, sending a lot of people over there to do these exercises. i thought we were out of money for the defense department. >>gretchen: do you know it is national financial capability spending month? apparently it's the president's mission to make sure that everyone knows how to budget responsibly. >>brian: young people especially. >>gretchen: he wants to teach them how to -- let's see. help people make sound decisions in the marketplace like budget responsibly, saving for college, open a business or opening a retirement account. the only problem is when you juxtapose that against the average amount every household is paying for the national debt since he took office which is $53,377 per household, some people might scratch their heads about budgeting responsibly. >>steve: the irony is delicious. $53,000 per household all across the united states in america just since he's been president of the united states. the interesting thing is while he's trying to teach us how to budget responsibly, the president and his team actually have not submitted a budget to the congress as is required. he's two months late. maybe some guys in the west wing should actually go on to their website to find out how to budget responsibly. they're trying to teach us how to do it but they are not doing it. >>brian: there are links to how to get the most out of your credit card, also how to manage debt and credit. sadly the president is on the record saying i'm not going to hurt the budget by overemphasizing cutting down on our deficit which has gone up 53% since he went to the white house. young people, do as they say, not as they do. >>steve: we've heard from this administration that the economy is turning governor cuomo's poll numbers -- >>steve: he's steugt on a decision -- still sitting on a decision of whether or not to frack. they have studies that show it is safe to frack. he doesn't want to anger his left base even though jobs would certainly be welcome. >>brian: and it would anger yoko ono and if she gets angry she'll cut another album. >>gretchen: let's talk about a happy ending or not so much for march madness, the cinderella story. florida gulf coast, the 15th seed, the lowest seed to make it to the final 16 in the tournament. guess what? their coach is going to take over the job at u.s.c. he's 43 years old and he's moving on to bigger opportunities. i mean this, bound to happen; right? >>brian: nothing wrong with this. it's called moving up and out. in this case he could have waited a couple of weeks. a $157 thousand a year salary. they were trying to have fund-raising to get him to double his salary to $300,000. u.s.c. cut him a check nor $1 million and guaranteed him six years. they are going to have a huge athletic department behind him. you can't fault him. this guy was a self-made millionaire in new york city. he said i wanted to become a basketball player. i'll coach, grab a job with an unknown school and turn it around, which he did in florida. then take your model wife, three kids and your million-dollar salary and go over to u.s.c. it is what is america is about. >>steve: he didn't need the money. in the movie, he would have stayed with the little school. now instead the cinderella coach is going to hollywood. >>brian: you mean like "the mighty ducks." >>gretchen: i think it's emblematic of what happens in america with capitalism and working as hard as you can and keep reaching a new pinnacle if that's what you want to do. apparently he does. >>steve: the ratings for the entire tournament have been higher than they have been in something like 20 years. >>brian: we'll update you on the player in louisville as he gets set to go home to atlanta to watch his team try to win a national championship. >>gretchen: a closer look at our top story, who's targeting law enforcement in texas?
