i think very similar to new york. >> very similar. i'm... from what i know of new york. i mean, i was always, like, sort of dreamed to come here and study here but it was just easier to go to london. >> jon: what did you... oh, you mean studying acting? >> yeah, to go to acting school. >> jon: i went to an acting school here, and you can see it's not very good. (laughter) you made a much better... (laughter). the choice that you made to study with the masters. whereas i came to new york and... >> jon: what did you study? >> jon: where or what? >> where. >> jon: i studied at a place called h.b. studios. and i can say this now because both teachers are dead. herbertbergoff and uta haggen very talented... >> oh, wow! >> jon: yes and for $5 you could sit in the class and have herbert in the back eating candies going "really?"

sharyn alfonsi, abc news, new york. >> and i traveled down to city hall today in new york to talk to mayor bloomberg about the firestorm he created and the critics who call him the nanny mayor. so, i wake up this morning and i read "nanny mike" and i read "soda scrooge." >> i don't know if those are derogatory terms. at least it gets your name in the paper. and the old adage, as long as they spell your name right, it's good publicity. >> reporter: should the government be doing this? shouldn't the government stay out -- >> all we're doing here is educating. if you want to order 32 ounces of soda, in a restaurant, that we supervise, they must give you two 16-ounce glasses. and what's likely to happen is, you'll drink one and not the other. that was the size of the popcorn that i used to get, not the drink. >> reporter: we went in and asked for 16-ounce, they gave us a 21-ounce, said it was a 16-ounce. and this is medium. just to show everybody. so, you are not looking at this as a government prescription. you are looking at it as education? >> it forces you to see the difference, in t

here at 30 rock in new york city. the obama campaign's attack on mitt romney's business record ran into a road block. bill clinton. president clinton praised romney's background at the investment firm bain capital. >> i think it will affect some people who relate well to businessmen. and i think he had a good business career. the -- there's a lot of controversy about that, but if you go in and try to save a failing company and you and i have friends here who invest in companies, you can invest in a company, run up the debt, loot it, sell off the assets and force all the people to lose their retirement and fire them. or you can go into a company, have cutbacks, try to make it more productive with the purpose of saving it. and when you try, like anything else you try, you don't always succeed. not every movie you made was a smash hit. >> that's for sure. >> i don't think that we ought to get into a position where we say this is bad work. this is good work. no question that in terms of getting up and going to the office

as "the new york times" puts it, mr. obama has avoided the complication of detention by deciding to take no prisoners alive. it's brilliant. he doesn't have to worry about habeas corpus because after a drone strike, sometimes you can't even find the corpus. (laughter) the only problem is, the only problem is, folks, occasionally our drones quill civilians. but you know what they say? to make an omelet, you got to kill a few civilians.
