[0:05] Tonight on Night Line, Rachel Ray, how

[0:09] she went from this

[0:10] >> rat tattooy pasta. It's one of her

[0:12] favorite things.

[0:13] >> To this, how cute is that?

[0:15] >> And builds a multi-million dollar

[0:17] empire. The deals, the controversies,

[0:20] and those pictures. It's a Night Line

[0:23] exclusive. Plus, winter blast chaos as

[0:27] commuters get stuck on a train for

[0:29] almost a day as the storm strikes and

[0:32] the east coast gets buried. And bringing

[0:35] a baby. The grown-ups aren't the only

[0:38] ones coming in for an adjustment. But

[0:40] would you [music] take your

[0:41] four-month-old to the chiropractor?

[0:45] >> From the global resources of ABC News

[0:48] with Terry Moran, Martin Basher, and

[0:50] Cynthia Mcbaden in New York City. This

[0:53] is [music] Night Line, March 2nd, 2009.

[0:58] >> Good evening. I'm Cynthia McFaten.

[0:59] Tonight, an exclusive look inside the

[1:02] world of popular daytime cooking queen

[1:04] Rachel Ray. Her empire is worth tens of

[1:07] millions of dollars spun around her

[1:09] ability to make easy, breezy, fast, and

[1:12] inexpensive meals and convince viewers

[1:15] they can do it, too. But a ride to the

[1:17] top hasn't been without turbulence. One

[1:19] famous chef likened her paid endorsement

[1:21] of Dunkin Donuts to selling crack to

[1:24] children. And then there are those

[1:26] sexually charged photos. Well, tonight

[1:28] she tackles it all in a revealing

[1:31] interview.

[1:32] >> Beef Brutus

[1:35] is Caesar salad with sliced steak.

[1:37] >> Guess who this is.

[1:39] >> Croutons out of a box are going to taste

[1:40] like the box.

[1:42] >> That's a 29year-old Rachel Ray circa

[1:44] 1998. Our next ingredient, we're going

[1:47] to jazz up our Alfredo a little bit.

[1:49] We're going to add some pushcido.

[1:50] >> Taking her first shot on local

[1:52] television.

[1:53] >> People think that it's it's very hard

[1:55] and it's not. It's really easy.

[1:57] >> Oh, how times have changed.

[2:02] >> Today I'm using my noodle.

[2:07] I got a [music] kick.

[2:11] >> And here we go, baby.

[2:14] Oh, no way.

[2:16] >> Oh, yes. [screaming]

[2:21] >> Over the garbage. Oh,

[2:24] >> staff.

[2:25] >> We're backstage in the prep kitchen of

[2:27] the Rachel Ray show.

[2:28] >> What are you doing? You're peeling me.

[2:29] >> I've done too.

[2:31] >> Where Ray herself is clearly in charge.

[2:34] >> I haven't reinvented the wheel. I'm not

[2:37] a chef. I haven't created any new

[2:38] technique in the kitchen. I'm not a

[2:41] rocket scientist. I think I'm good at

[2:43] writing accessible, fun, and affordable

[2:46] meals

[2:47] for the average American family. That's

[2:51] what I think I'm good at. [cheering]

[2:55] >> Hi everybody.

[2:57] >> And she's making a fortune whether you

[2:59] like her or not.

[3:01] >> Let's talk. It reported $18 million a

[3:03] year.

[3:04] >> I have no idea.

[3:05] >> Well, let's just say it's a lot. You'd

[3:07] stipulate to a lot.

[3:10] more than I used to make. Yes. You know

[3:12] why I really don't look? It makes me a

[3:14] little sick.

[3:16] >> Makes my stomach flip. I'm not

[3:17] comfortable with it because

[3:19] >> I don't like to think of my life as that

[3:22] far away from me. She came from humble

[3:24] beginnings and worked in a specialty

[3:26] store in upstate New York where she

[3:28] thought maybe the reason people weren't

[3:30] buying the groceries is that they didn't

[3:32] know how to cook with them. So she

[3:34] started her own little instore classes

[3:37] which led to a local TV gig.

[3:39] >> So we're going to do a little rat tattoo

[3:40] to eat pasta. It's one of her favorite

[3:42] things.

[3:42] >> Which led to the Today Show.

[3:44] >> Rachel Ray, author of Comfort Foods,

[3:46] Rachel Ray's 30-minute meals, is here to

[3:48] show. You got very excited when I said

[3:49] that.

[3:49] >> Yeah, it's cool. Always here to show us

[3:52] how to make one pot dishes.

[3:54] >> Yeah.

[3:55] >> And the Food Network.

[3:56] >> Hi there. I'm Rachel Ray and I make 30

[3:59] minute meals.

[4:00] >> Oprah saw something special [music] in

[4:01] her and voila.

[4:03] >> [laughter]

[4:06] >> A daytime star was born.

[4:09] [cheering]

[4:11] >> In those two notebooks on your lap is

[4:13] the empire.

[4:14] >> Yeah. And I always thought empire is a

[4:16] really evil word. But this is how

[4:18] ridiculous it is. This is this is really

[4:21] it.

[4:21] >> This is it.

[4:22] >> This is where I doodle

[4:24] >> dishes. This is where I write for every

[4:26] show. And there's little codes like just

[4:28] on the very first page of this book,

[4:29] you'll see all these different recipes.

[4:31] And then then there's a code for them

[4:32] >> like what?

[4:33] >> 30mm is 30-minute meals. EDWR is every

[4:36] day with Raay magazine. DTS is daytime

[4:38] show.

[4:39] >> Rachel, you could now afford bigger

[4:41] pieces of paper.

[4:43] >> In fact, she can now afford whatever she

[4:45] wants.

[4:46] >> Her empire includes a daily talk show.

[4:49] >> Please help yourself, Swifty. two hit

[4:52] Food Network shows, 15 best-selling

[4:55] cookbooks, nearly 2 million subscribers

[4:58] to her self-titled monthly magazine, her

[5:01] own foundation promoting healthy food

[5:03] for kids called Yumo. Then there's

[5:05] Rachel Ray dog food, olive oil, and did

[5:09] I mention a line of pots?

[5:10] >> But this is why I made a spaghetti pot.

[5:13] >> Uh

[5:15] because spaghetti and linguini is long.

[5:18] The daytime show is about to tape its

[5:20] 500th episode and there are 190,000

[5:24] people waiting for tickets, she tells

[5:27] me. [applause]

[5:30] But it has been, as the world defines

[5:31] it, a pretty steep climb. It certainly

[5:35] felt like a rocket ship ride to me.

[5:37] >> When I need to get charged up for a gift

[5:38] shopping run, I head to Dunkin Donuts

[5:41] and I [music] grab a cup of vanilla

[5:42] spiced coffee. Then I'm good to go.

[5:44] >> There have been a few rough spots for

[5:46] the girl next door. for ads for Dunkin

[5:48] Donuts for one

[5:50] >> delish. Do you regret doing the Dunkin

[5:52] Donuts?

[5:53] >> I do not regret Dunkin Donuts because

[5:55] Dunkin Donuts got rid of all their trans

[5:57] fats. They came to me and they said, "We

[5:59] want to make healthier food for America.

[6:02] You drink a lot of coffee. You grew up

[6:04] on Dunkin Donuts. Have a cup of Dunkin

[6:06] Donuts on us." They gave their support

[6:10] and their money to Yumo. They've been

[6:12] very supportive of me. I don't regret a

[6:14] thing. I do eat a warm doughnut

[6:16] occasionally. I especially enjoy a cider

[6:18] donut when I'm [clears throat] apple

[6:19] picking and I don't think there's

[6:20] anything wrong with that.

[6:21] >> So, when Chef Anthony Bourdain says that

[6:24] you this was evil on your part and this

[6:26] was like pedalling crack to kids.

[6:28] >> I absolutely love Tony Bourdain. I have

[6:30] an enormous amount of respect for him.

[6:32] It's a free country and quite frankly

[6:34] without me explaining my mindset I think

[6:37] that that's a very fair thing he said

[6:39] and I have no problem with it.

[6:40] >> All right. I have to ask you about those

[6:42] pictures.

[6:42] >> Which ones? those the sexy ones with

[6:45] >> FHM. Bring it.

[6:46] >> Oh my god, we're going to use those.

[6:48] Yeah.

[6:48] >> First of all, when FHM called, I thought

[6:50] it was um food and home. I didn't even

[6:53] know what FHM was.

[6:55] >> And I got the request from

[6:57] >> uh I was like, oh my, that's

[7:00] >> the PR person at at Food Network called

[7:02] me and said, "We actually had an unusual

[7:05] request for you for press from FHM

[7:07] magazine. This magazine has

[7:11] as young as 17, 18 year olds in hottie

[7:14] bikinis, and these are all actresses,

[7:18] models, pinup girls. I don't belong to

[7:21] any even remote club of theirs. And I

[7:25] thought, if I'm gutsy enough to do this,

[7:28] this is a good thing for everybody. This

[7:30] is the every woman. Here she is. I

[7:32] wouldn't change a thing. I do it again

[7:34] tomorrow.

[7:34] >> Now, I heard your mother told you not to

[7:35] do it. My mother was furious, remains

[7:38] furious. You don't have to do that kind

[7:40] of trash to do what you do. You don't

[7:42] need to sell yourself that way. Blah

[7:44] blah blah. And I was proud of it. I

[7:46] would do it again. Even though my mom

[7:47] would really be mad at me, I know she

[7:48] still loves me.

[7:49] >> Hi, honey.

[7:51] >> What do you want to do for dinner?

[7:53] >> As for her personal life, she's been

[7:54] married to John Kuzmano for three and a

[7:57] half years.

[7:58] >> What did I make today? I made uh creole

[8:00] turkey meatloaves um and smashed sweet

[8:04] potatoes. I could bring home extra prep

[8:06] from that. Hello.

[8:10] Okie dokie. We can go over to Mexico,

[8:12] but then Izzy will be home alone

[8:15] >> for a long time.

[8:16] >> Izzy is her beloved dog, a frequent

[8:19] visitor to the office, a guest on the

[8:21] show, and the light of her life.

[8:23] >> I love you. I love you.

[8:25] >> Talk to me about kids for a minute

[8:27] because you have said famous you have

[8:29] said famously that you're too busy for

[8:31] children. Is that

[8:32] >> I'm not too busy for children in

[8:33] general. Well, I love working with them.

[8:35] I love hanging out with them. I love

[8:36] cooking with them

[8:37] >> and sending them home.

[8:39] >> You know, I think that I'm 40 years old

[8:41] and I have an enormous

[8:45] uh amount of hours that have to be

[8:46] dedicated to work. I feel like for me

[8:49] personally, I I would need more time to

[8:53] feel like I'd be a good mom to my own

[8:55] child. I I just I feel like

[9:00] a a borderline good mom to my dog. So I

[9:03] can't imagine if it was a human baby.

[9:05] Plus I literally don't think I mean John

[9:08] knows this is true. I can't imagine

[9:10] anybody giving me three six months off

[9:13] to go physically have a child and take

[9:17] even a baby pardon the pun a baby break.

[9:20] You know there is too much momentum and

[9:22] I just feel it would be unfair not only

[9:24] to the child but to the people that I

[9:25] work with.

[9:26] >> Do you think you're missing something?

[9:29] >> I don't feel like I am. I really don't.

[9:31] For all of her real girl down home

[9:34] humor, for all of her success, she does

[9:37] have her detractors.

[9:38] >> Doesn't it hurt your feelings a little

[9:40] bit?

[9:41] >> No, it really doesn't.

[9:42] >> It doesn't.

[9:43] >> I mean, why should it? They have their

[9:44] right, their opinion. And quite frankly,

[9:47] much of what they say is true. Um, it's

[9:49] been quoted to me in interviews. I mean,

[9:51] I don't go home and read it, but it's

[9:52] people certainly have fun reading it to

[9:54] me. I mean, yeah, I have a ridiculous

[9:56] voice. I don't make my own perogis. I

[9:58] can't bake. Blah blah blah blah blah

[10:00] blah blah. They're all right. I mean,

[10:02] you know what? How am I going to fight

[10:03] them? I mean, do you call them up or,

[10:05] you know, hey, you like me or else? It's

[10:07] a ludicrous argument. Ridiculous.

[10:09] >> She doesn't need to worry about the

[10:11] people who don't like her. There are so

[10:13] many who do. In the economy, she's not

[10:16] worried about that either.

[10:18] >> We're built for a recession. We've

[10:20] always tried to write affordable,

[10:22] accessible, friendly food that helps

[10:24] families eat better for less. when

[10:26] you're going through tough times or when

[10:28] you're living on a tight budget, it

[10:31] improves the very quality and and and

[10:34] feeling of your life as a whole to be

[10:37] able to provide for yourself and to to

[10:41] share good food with with those you

[10:43] love. The reason I think you should cook

[10:45] is because it feeds your soul more than

[10:46] your stomach. [applause]

[10:48] >> And if you can do it in 30 minutes, all

[10:50] the better.

[10:52] We'll see about recession proof, but as

[10:54] Rachel told me, she likes being beer in

[10:56] a bottle, not champagne in a flute. When

[11:00] we come back, good medicine or bad, good

[11:02] science or fad, would you take your baby

[11:05] to the chiropractor?

[11:09] >> ABC News Night Line, brought to you by

[11:12] TDmeritrade.

[11:19] >> [music]

[11:22] >> The way the stock market's been acting

[11:23] lately, you may wonder if you've been

[11:25] doing the right thing. Is the advice

[11:27] you've been getting helping or hurting?

[11:29] Are the fees you're paying really worth

[11:31] it? TDM Trades fees are fair and

[11:34] straightforward. Their research is

[11:36] independent and unbiased. Their

[11:38] investment consultants are knowledgeable

[11:40] and there when you need them, so why not

[11:42] talk to one? Call today to schedule a

[11:45] free investment checkup or visit a TDM

[11:47] trade branch.

[11:49] >> I'm taking an anti-depressant, but I

[11:51] think I might need more help.

[11:53] >> Approximately two out of three people

[11:55] being treated for depression still have

[11:57] depression symptoms.

[11:59] >> I'm on an anti-depressant, but I'm still

[12:01] not where I want to be with my symptoms.

[12:04] >> If your [music] anti-depressant alone

[12:05] isn't enough, talk to your doctor. One

[12:08] option your doctor may consider is

[12:09] adding Ailify. Only Ailify [music] is

[12:12] FDA approved to treat depression in

[12:14] adults when added to an anti-depressant.

[12:17] Learn more about Ailify. Call your

[12:20] doctor if your depression worsens or

[12:21] [music] you have unusual changes in

[12:22] mood, behavior, or thoughts of suicide.

[12:24] Anti-depressants can increase these in

[12:26] children, teens, and young adults.

[12:28] Elderly dementia [music] patients taking

[12:29] Ailify have an increased risk of death

[12:31] or stroke. Call your doctor if you have

[12:33] high fever, stiff [music] muscles, and

[12:35] confusion on Ailify as these may be

[12:37] signs of a life-threatening reaction or

[12:39] uncontrollable muscle movements as these

[12:41] could become permanent. High blood sugar

[12:43] has been reported with Ailify [music] in

[12:44] medicines like it. In some cases,

[12:46] extreme high blood sugar can lead to

[12:48] coma or death. Other risks include

[12:50] [music] dizziness upon standing,

[12:51] seizures, impaired judgment or motor

[12:53] skills, or trouble swallowing.

[12:54] >> Adding Ailify has made a difference for

[12:56] me. If an anti-depressant alone isn't

[12:58] enough, talk to your doctor about the

[13:00] risks and [music] benefits of adding

[13:02] Ailify. Are you in your gray hair facing

[13:05] an identity crisis?

[13:06] >> My hair says experience. My hair says

[13:09] energy.

[13:10] >> Touch of gray. The best of both. Combs

[13:12] away a little [music] gray. Never too

[13:13] much. Just right.

[13:14] >> Now I look like I know what I'm doing

[13:16] and can still do it.

[13:17] >> Touch of Gray. He broke Melissa's heart

[13:20] and asks Molly for a second chance. Now

[13:22] in his first postbachelor appearance,

[13:24] Jason will face Jimmy. I hope that you

[13:26] do get married, but I'm pretty confident

[13:27] that you won't.

[13:28] >> Plus, loss of Angeline Lily and New Kids

[13:30] on the Block. Jimmy Kim Alive coming up

[13:32] on ABC.

[13:34] >> Next Monday, it's the Dancing with the

[13:35] Stars live 2-hour premiere event on ABC.

[13:40] >> There's one [music] place you can go to

[13:43] live smarter, to eat better without

[13:45] spending more, to fill up for less,

[13:50] to find [music] thousands of things you

[13:51] need most and save every day.

[13:56] to [music] get well, stay well, and to

[13:59] live well for less. All with one

[14:02] powerful little card. Safeway [music] is

[14:04] the smart way to shop. Safeway,

[14:07] ingredients for life.

[14:12] [music]

[14:17] There are those who believe the hands of

[14:19] a chiropractor hold the key to lifelong

[14:21] health, while others are deeply

[14:23] skeptical. Tonight, a report that

[14:26] parents are taking their children as

[14:28] young as 4 months old to a chiropractor

[14:30] in the hopes that it may help their baby

[14:32] avoid teething pain and bedwedding.

[14:35] Intrigued, David Wright has the story.

[14:39] >> Let's just see how you moved in that

[14:41] area. When I began work on this story,

[14:43] all I knew about chiropractors was this

[14:47] and this.

[14:49] >> All right, good.

[14:50] >> And of course, this. Here you go.

[14:54] >> Now, come and get them.

[14:56] >> So, you can just imagine my horror at

[14:58] the thought of infants and toddlers

[15:00] coming in for an adjustment.

[15:04] >> This baby is just 4 months old. Dr. Beth

[15:08] Forgosh works in the trendy Soho

[15:10] neighborhood in Manhattan. She's an

[15:12] experienced hand with moms.

[15:14] >> Hold hold

[15:15] >> and kids.

[15:16] >> Okay, kiddo. Relax your leg down.

[15:18] >> She's quick to point out that kids are

[15:20] not her specialty, but she has a gentle

[15:22] touch and the moms keep bringing them

[15:24] in.

[15:25] >> You're not bending them like a pretzel.

[15:27] >> Not bending them like a pretzel. Not

[15:28] doing anything that's threatening them

[15:30] in any way. It's just a very nurturing

[15:33] application. About the only thing that

[15:35] doesn't look very nurturing is that

[15:37] metal tool there. Kind of like a dentist

[15:40] syringe.

[15:43] >> This is a tool. It's called an

[15:44] activator. It was developed by a

[15:46] chiropractor.

[15:47] >> So, light tap in here.

[15:50] >> Every time I click that, it's creating a

[15:52] neurological reflex into the muscle

[15:54] systems and allowing for the bone to

[15:56] reorganize itself.

[15:58] >> Does it hurt?

[15:59] >> What do you think, Raven? Does it hurt?

[16:02] I don't think so.

[16:04] >> Raven is four and a half.

[16:06] >> That's like one, two, three.

[16:09] >> Her sister Nia 2 and a half. Their mom

[16:12] is 9 months pregnant.

[16:13] >> The early stages of a child's life from

[16:15] birth to four or so is really formative

[16:20] for them uh in many ways uh physically

[16:23] as well as mentally.

[16:24] >> And how soon [clears throat] after you

[16:25] give birth will you come back in here?

[16:27] >> I mean, I would say if we could have Dr.

[16:29] bed at the birth and have her adjust the

[16:31] baby right after. We would do that hands

[16:33] down.

[16:33] >> At times it seems almost mystical this

[16:36] laying on of hands.

[16:38] >> Toddler lies on her mother's belly.

[16:41] >> Dr. Beth says she can feel through the

[16:43] tension in the mother's arm where Nia

[16:46] needs an adjustment.

[16:47] >> It seemed very gentle.

[16:48] >> Yeah. Yeah.

[16:49] >> Much gentler than I imagined a

[16:50] chiropractor's office to be like.

[16:52] >> Yeah. Yeah. Very, very gentle.

[16:54] Completely completely safe.

[16:55] >> The other big question, does it help?

[16:58] Dr. Beth insists it can with all sorts

[17:00] of problems.

[17:01] >> Everything from collic to ear infections

[17:04] to constipation problems to um even from

[17:08] the birth process have seen cranial

[17:11] malpositions that can be released in

[17:13] order to balance out the shape of the

[17:15] head and the symmetry of the face.

[17:18] >> Some other chiropractors even say these

[17:20] types of adjustments have been known to

[17:21] help with teething, asthma, and

[17:24] bedwedding. Many medical doctors are

[17:27] skeptical.

[17:27] >> I have no doubt that chiropractors have

[17:31] found children have benefited. We just

[17:34] don't know yet the risks.

[17:36] >> You probably won't find a more

[17:38] open-minded physician than Dr. Lonnie

[17:40] Zeltzer. Her pediatric pain program at

[17:43] UCLA employs all sorts of alternative

[17:46] approaches. We have acupuncture and art

[17:50] therapy, music therapy, ayangar yoga,

[17:54] meditation, hypnotherapy, bof feedback,

[17:57] craniosacral therapy. Um,

[18:00] >> so all the touchy feeling California

[18:02] stuff.

[18:02] >> You're [laughter] right.

[18:03] >> But no chiropractor.

[18:05] >> Not yet. Not for children.

[18:06] >> She says there simply haven't been

[18:08] enough studies done to prove it's

[18:10] effective.

[18:11] >> What kind of impact would that have on

[18:12] an infant?

[18:13] >> Well, could paralyze the infant.

[18:15] >> Dr. Beth says she has never injured a

[18:18] child. She clearly takes great care to

[18:20] do no harm.

[18:21] >> Another light tap here.

[18:23] >> The parents who bring their kids to her

[18:25] have no qualms, but they are aware of

[18:27] the skepticism.

[18:28] >> Well, my parents were in shock, of

[18:30] course, and they thought that it was

[18:32] like child abuse. So, I think they

[18:35] thought it would be more harmful and

[18:37] beneficial. After the first visit, it

[18:39] was a completely different baby.

[18:42] >> He he was all relaxed. He was all come

[18:44] with a completely different look on his

[18:46] face. The face changed and he slept

[18:48] through the night.

[18:49] >> And Dr. Beth, she acknowledges

[18:51] chiropractic care is not for everyone.

[18:54] >> Nobody's forcing anybody into

[18:56] chiropractic care. It's just it's an

[18:58] available tool.

[18:59] >> But she encourages people, including the

[19:02] parents of young kids, to keep an open

[19:04] mind.

[23:14] >> Night Line continues from New York City

[23:17] with Cynthia McFaden.

[23:20] In the east, weather dominated the day

[23:22] as snow and ice fell from Georgia to

[23:24] Maine. Here in New York City, schools

[23:26] were closed for the first time in 5

[23:27] years. And for some, this last blasted

[23:30] winter may seem a bit overblown. But as

[23:32] John Donin reports, if you live on the

[23:34] East Coast, there was no other news

[23:36] today. If it were Minnesota, it wouldn't

[23:39] even be news. Two or four or 6 ines of

[23:42] snow. Ah, that's nothing in the northern

[23:44] Midwest. But here back east, well, the

[23:47] storm that everyone was talking about

[23:49] for the past 24 hours.

[23:51] >> Every time we think it's over and we

[23:52] could see the light at the end of the

[23:54] tunnel, we have another snowstorm.

[23:56] >> I have a 14-year-old who should be out

[23:57] here shoveling himself, but he's in bed,

[23:59] probably with the TV on.

[24:00] >> Couple other crews been out since

[24:02] midnight.

[24:02] >> Morning commute will be uh something of

[24:05] a challenge for people.

[24:06] >> We'll do our best so the morning commute

[24:07] can be in as best condition as possible.

[24:09] >> It's wonderful. It's glad to see some

[24:11] snow. We always need at least one day of

[24:14] snow. It looked like this in the

[24:16] satellite imagery and it whitened up the

[24:18] coast from Alabama to north of

[24:20] Massachusetts. It was a train stopper.

[24:23] Seriously, this Amtrak arrival in

[24:25] Newport News, Virginia came in this

[24:26] afternoon more than 16 hours late, all

[24:29] dressed up in ice.

[24:31] >> From 2:00 until about 8:00, we just sat

[24:35] there in the middle of nowhere. No cell

[24:38] phone access, no nothing. That's Wayne

[24:40] Carter, a reporter for WVEC who met the

[24:43] train and did such a good job cataloging

[24:45] its mishaps, we thought we'd just let it

[24:47] play for a bit.

[24:48] >> Somewhere north of Richmond, a CSX

[24:50] freight train derailed. The Amtrak sat

[24:53] in freezing rain, started rolling again.

[24:56] But more trouble, the switches on the

[24:58] tracks froze. Then wind knocked trees

[25:00] down. The Amtrak's engine hitting them

[25:03] over and over again till finally the

[25:05] train just stopped.

[25:07] >> Okay. Well, good thing there. Nobody was

[25:08] hurt in the train episode. It's not that

[25:11] there were not more serious incidents.

[25:15] More than 50 cars in a ditch beside one

[25:17] stretch of Maryland highway. An accident

[25:19] in North Carolina that backed up traffic

[25:21] for 15 miles. This and some other

[25:24] southern states had near record

[25:26] snowfalls of 3 in. A late winter storm

[25:30] marches [music] up the east coast

[25:32] >> from the Carolinas to New England. It's

[25:34] dangerous.

[25:34] >> It's not that it never snows in the

[25:36] east. But of course it snows in the east

[25:38] as New England knows. But even then,

[25:42] this time and always, we tend to make a

[25:44] big deal of it when it gets to New York

[25:47] City, which happens to be where all of

[25:49] these news people work. A lot of weather

[25:52] news today, even if this is what it

[25:54] amounted to in many places. Not very

[25:57] Michigan cool of us, not very Montana

[26:00] stoic, and thoroughly unalask.

[26:03] And speaking of states, we wonder if you

[26:05] are in Arizona and this was the weather

[26:07] in Arizona today. Do you really care

[26:10] about the weather back east? Well, maybe

[26:12] only if you needed to get here, which

[26:14] today mostly you could not do because it

[26:17] snowed. Not, however, like it used to,

[26:19] according to Bill Cryanti, who's been

[26:22] plowing snow in Walton, Massachusetts

[26:24] for 60 years.

[26:26] >> Up this territory, it's not that unusual

[26:29] really. We have gotten it a few times

[26:31] before. Um, I remember the year 56 they

[26:36] were supposed to have the St. Patrick's

[26:37] Day parade in Boston and three weekends

[26:40] in a row they got a blizzard and it was

[26:45] it was into the first week in April when

[26:47] they got snow that year.

[26:49] >> And that's the news and the weather.

[26:51] Sports is next with Cynthia McFaden.

[26:54] >> Uh, from a man who always knows the

[26:56] score, John Donan with the weather has a

[26:59] nice ring to it. When we come back, as

[27:01] the Dow sinks again, is America
