spike lee -- >> he doesn't like inter racial couples? >> he said he wanted to shoot white people and caught on tape talking how he hates harlem is becoming white. spike lee works for nba radio. you can strangle somebody in the nba and not get suspended. there was a suspension on the bench during practice and given a one-season suspension. ron artist charged into the stands and beat people up and given a one-game suspension. >> what about the domestic allegations we sue in professional basketball and football and other sports where women are getting beat up, thrown down stairs in certain cases and where is the shoulder to shoulder condemnation by that and the players and league? where does it stop if we condemn bad behavior, do we have to do it in every case? are the consequences going to be? >> bad views, too. one thing i talked about is the fact that so many players, in the last year, at least five players have been fined for using the f word to describe gay people. not one suspension among them. they can do that but donald sterling say

filmmaker spike lee has said the attack on magic johnson is crazy and he has to go. >> for him to say how he's helped minorities and then try to juxtapose that with what magic is doing is ludicrous. and this thing is getting volatile now. the wife says i'm not selling. she has 50% of the team. the other day lebron said -- and i think he was thinking for all the players. if the sterling name is attached to the team, it's going to be crazy. >> spike lee there talking with our anderson cooper. >> sterling had, believe it or not, a lot more to say. he talked about the clippers players, the media. stick with us, that's still to come in the next half hour. >>> a sad and surprising defendant in the state of north carolina. one of the candidates, keith crisco was found dead in his home. he was 71 years old. crisco was in a race with clay aiken. final results were expected today. aiken tweeted out that he was stunned and deeply saddened by crisco's death. >>> we're going to take a very short break now. just ahead, a new study has a grim assessment of glacial melting in the antarctic. >> what i

spike lee called me. i mean, look, we help each other. and you know, what we try to do is band together to see how we can better our community. we also give the information, because i'm successful, tyler is successful, on and on, on and on. we go back and educate the others on how they can become successful. so it is not just about giving them money it is about giving them the tools so that they can be successful in the african-american community. we work very well together. reverend sharpton, you have different people who always work together to make it better for the others and that is what we do. so it is a shame that he doesn't know what he is talking about. he didn't educate himself before he actually came on and talked to you. >> is this the donald sterling that you know? you only have talked to him a couple of times, hung out with him a couple of times. his wife indicated in an interview with barbara walters that perhaps he has early onset dementia. does this seem like the donald sterling you talked to earlier, without him saying t

. >> you were later discovered in an nightclub by spike lee. you are from brooklyn. he is from brooklyn. you get this major role in "do the right thing." how much of that performance was derived from your own life, if any? >> i think it was deroofed from my life from me observing all of the traps that a lot of girls fell. you know, of looking for the valuedation outside of the home, of early teen pregnancy, frustration of not getting what you want out of life knowing that you deserve more but not having the wherewithal to go get more. and for metion my personal life of, you know, spike was like, i need you to get really angry right here. i go, that's a walk in the park. >> you had that at your disposal? >> i had it at my disposal. so even though yes have, you know, an acting lesson in my life, i, you know, i felt like i was always acting, always protecting myself, always escaping into different realities. so it was surprising to me how easy it was >> i have stephanie knee cy. we are talking to actor and coriographer rosie perez. we will have more in just a minute. >>

so the video is directed by spike lee and all from the pov of debbie, an actress playing debbie. she's not stalking him, but trying to reconnect with him and eventually they hug at the end. it is touching, but it portrays debbie as not -- she's drinking a lot and smoking a lot. it is kind of an apology, but also kind of -- >> some mothers do. >> that's true. that's true. it gets to -- >> has she said anything about -- >> i don't think so. i don't think she said anything. i think he -- it is a step forward for him. >> any kind of reconciliation. >> not a warm and fuzzy fellow. >> no, you don't have tea with eminem. >> no. >> kim k. is having a bridal shower. >> kim k. had her bridal shower at the peninsula hotel in beverly hills. >> you missed it by a week. >> i love that hotel. >> you can just roll down, you know, during breakfast. hey. >> not having anything at the beverly hills hotel anymore, the bel air. >> i know. but the wedding shower and her sisters were there, her mom, sierra, who is like crazy pregnant still, i don't know why she's still pregnant. she's been pregnant for

the comedy written and produced and directed by spike lee. >> nominated for best original screen play and best supporting actor. the movie tells the story of a brooklyn neighborhood's simmering racial tension on the hottest day of the year. >> don't start. all right. >> vito's down. vito's down, all right? >> vito's down. >> yo! >> scuffed up his kicks. "do the right thing" launched spike lee's career and often called one of the greatest movies of all time. rumor has it that the movie was one of obama's first dates. that's where he took her, wow. >> great movie. >>> finally a movie that explored the age-old question can men and women be friends. >> "when harry met sally" stars billy crystal and meg ryan as new college graduates who make the drive from chicago to new york. it doesn't go well but they meet up in new york five years later, once again realizing they cannot be friends. >> years later they take another stab at it and it's that friendship that results in this hilarious, ironic, iconic scene in the deli in manhattan. the topic of the debate, do women fake it? >> yes, yes, yes

filmmaker spike lee joins me tonight to talk about all of this. overall what do you make of donald sterling? of what he said? >> why they let him speak. who is around him -- >> that's an interesting thing. there was no lawyer there. no pr person there. it seems like it's just kind of him. >> i'm amazed. i don't know -- >> for the record magic johnson has the magic johnson foundation. his business life invests in inner-city communities. his foundation has given millions on hiv/aids education, on overall education on scholarships to people, on, you know, working communities. so for 20 years he's -- >> this attack on magic is crazy. he's messing with the wrong brother. and magic is loved by everybody around the world. and to talk about some other stuff that has nothing to do with nothing is ridiculous. and the whole what jews do and what blacks don't, that's insane. anderson, i did a documentary which was nominated for an academy award called "four little girls" it's about the bombing of the baptist church in birmingham, alabama. and i interviewed ge

spike lee called me. i mean, look, we help each other. you know, and we -- what we try to do is ban together to see how we can better our community. we also give the information, because i'm successful tyler is successful, on and on, we go back and educate the others on how they can become successful. so it is not about just giving them money. it is also about giving them the tools so that they can be successful in the african-american community. >> that is magic johnson with anderson cooper rebutting those smears from donald sterling that he has done nothing for his community. we also tried to fact check mr. sterling's characterizations. and we couldn't find one, but we did find a reporter writing for buzz feed. he has a new book out called "good advice for bad people." life advice for hypocrites, i understand. >> there is a vast portion of america that is predicated on targeting low income minorities and ripping them off with financial service products. and virtually across the board in every facet of that industry you will find magic j

and i thought it was tnt, but i think spike lee just corrected me, it was hbo that had made the original tuskegee airmen, not redtails. the original with laurence fishburne, cuba gooding jr. for me it was an eye opener because i thought, wow, there really is a moment, an opportunity for african-american military movies. so i decided to research and write a screenplay, the harlem hellfighters. and there wasn't a lot back then. you know, the first book i bought off a new web site called amazon.com was, like, this big. but then i found this amazing book called from harlem to the rhine, and that wasó1&cbz7qr anl memoir of a guy who actually fought. so i read that. i got the, a cd recording of the original music from the regimental band from james reese europe, some of the most amazing jazz lyrics identify ever heard. war -- i've ever heard. war lyrics, poetry. and i also got a documentary from the 1970s called men in bronze, i think one of the last two hellfighters left alive. so that was sort of my core research material. and i went -- i wrote the script, i went to tnt. no. nobody wanted i

you know how spike lee is for the knicks? that is what billy crystal is to the clippers. his heart is in it and i'd rather have a boss who is a fan and heart is really into it. >> i agree with you on that one. how about larry ellison? $50 billion, he has deep pockets. you could get raise? >> no. >> not good? >> okay, well his bid? case you're wondering might include oprah also. she has given show audience cars. what would she give an employee? >> she would get a lot of eyes and publicity and goes a long way and that will get you paid. >> i agree with that one. music and show biz insider david geffen is another possibly. worth more than $5 billion. >> i would like that. i would like him. he would be cool. >> so you're going to be here and people, i guess, you guys can all tweet don and let him know your pick for the night, right? see if anybody agrees with you on oprah or anybody else? >> i'm not just sloughing off here. i have an outfit i'm going to change into. >> you're handling the correspondents dinner. >> i will be wear a tux late. >> pretty fancy. do you have time l

lee just directed me. it was hbo that made the original tuskegee airmen. not read tales. the original tuskegee airmen with troop including judy. these movies came out within a year of each other. it was an eye-opener because i thought this is a moment, and opportunity for african-american military movies. so i decided to write a screenplay, "the harlem hellfighters" and the was a lot back then. the first book i bought off a new website called amazon.com was like this big. but then i found this amazing book called from harlem to the rhine. that was an original memoir of a guy who actually fought. so i read that. i got a cd recording of the original music from the regimental band them one of the founding fathers of jazz, so most amazing jazz lyrics i've ever heard. war lyrics, poetry. and i also got a documentary from 1970s called the men of bronze, one of the last two hellfighters left alive. that was my core research material. i wrote the script, went to tnt -- know, nobody wanted to tnt didn't want it. no

lee is picking a fight with the wrong person. this is not magic johnson's battle. in is donald sterling's issue, and i thought that magic handled it with grace and dignity and class, and it seems to be be the opposite of what we are hearing from donald sterling these das.s >> and we kept hearing at the beginning of this that some people, especially those like you in the press were not greatly surprised and you were aware of his background and even the lawsuit that he settled with the housing discrimination and perhaps some other things here, but are you surprised at this level of how far he is willing to go? >> i am a little bit surprised, and when you talk about public relations di ssasters, i think that even since the audiotapes were released that one late friday and early saturday and since that happened, there has been a series of p.r. missteps on donald sterling's part and the continued comments that the players love him and want to play for him. it is not helping to quell the situation among the nba whether it is owners or

spike lee called me. we help each other and what we try to do is band together to see how to better our community. we also give the information, because i'm successful, tyler is success phi successful, we educate others on how they can become successful. it's not just about giving them money, it's about giving them the tools so that they can be successful in the african-american community. but the problem is, he's living in the stone ages. he can't make those comments about african-americans and latinos. he just can't do it. >> spike lee last night was saying that he's messed with the wrong brother. >> well, you know anderson, i'm always going to fight for myself and my people. i will never change. so when he attacked me personally i have to speak out about it. >> good opportunity for magic johnson to speak to the ignorance of the statements that came out in donald sterling's interview. it is unfortunate he got hoisted to the middle and yet while it answers some questions it raises new ones because there'

. >>> he's worked with director spike lee in a video about the relationship with his mother rose and he tells of a promise he made his mom when he was just 9 years old. he said he would buy her a pink cadillac escalade when he made the nfl. >> the video ends with teddy making good on that promise. pink is appropriate because she is a breast cancer survivor and her name is rose. >> i love it. that's a great story. >> there's our robin robinson. you wonder how she even remembered it. >> you know what? moms remember. i remember saying things to my mom when i was very little. she still brings them up. like the fact that i wanted six kids. where is the rest of my grand babies? >> there you go. how about them grandkids. >> coming up, a 47-year-old mom goes home with her newborn triplets. 47 years old. why doctors call this a miracle family. >>> and putting dinner on the table while spending just $5. saving money never tasted so good. you're watching "world news now." >> announcer: "world news now" weather brought to you by swiffer sweep and track. i'm sinora and this is my son, chris. i'm

i thought it was an interesting analogy that spike lee put on after the anderson cooper interview, you know, they still love me in spite of it. that's like that racist plantation owner's mindset. >> love me because i put food on the table. >> for me as a player, i always knew he was cheap, always kind of like the clip joint, nobody wanted to play for the clippers because they were cheap. now it's coming full circle. elgin baylor was not crying wolf, he got it right. all of this stuff is being exposed. >> malik, great point. this didn't happen just last night. there have been people around this guy for years that have been hearing this and have done absolutely nothing. >> one interesting point i want to get your point on. he said a whole lot of things we were not expecting him to talk about, right? where should we begin. the one place, the one topic that he's wanted to be tight lipped was about the legal strategy going forward. he had that line down. when anderson asked him if he thought they were going to kick him out he said we weren't there yet so why should i address this issue. i d

stock was up a percentage point and there you see the spike afterwards. >>> and general electric, ge aviation is working on its first jet engine made up of parts from 3-d printers. melissa lee got exclusive access to ge's facilities in cincinnati. >> reporter: so how do you turn this into a jet engine part? walk us through? >> well, we start with a very fine powder and load this material into what we call an additive metal machine. >> and this is effective, this is very, very fine powder but is very heavy. >> what this material is capable of doing is resisting high temperatures. very high strength, so yeah, this is actually metal material just in powder form versus in a plate or bar form. >> reporter: more than 6,000 of ge's jet engines have been ordered by customers like boeing and lockheed martin, by 2016, they will contain a fuel nozzle that is lighter, more efficient and could save companies big bucks. >> the beauty of what we're doing is we take what would have been 20 different components that would have been machine welded together. and now we're growing just one. >> it is abo
