i want is, speaking of the fbi just briefly, my previous book on the fbi reveals how the fbi breaks into homes and offices to plant bugging devices without getting caught and shot as burglars. this is something that is employed on any major case whether it's terrorism, organized crime, political corruption, and with the agents do is two weeks before the break-in they of course case the joint and they determine who goes in, goes out. who works there. on the night of the break-in the agents will watch it though for those individuals to make sure they don't go back into the premises. they could even be in a busy. and if they do, the agents will divert them. they were police officers stopped him, give them a ticket. they will even have a traffic accident. they may even open a firefighter in the xml and can go back to the area. they also will take a photo if any dog that might be on the premises and show that two of the today was on contract to the fbi, and the veteran will prescribe it just right amount of tranquilizer. because of course they don't want any barking dog. at the end of the bre

i covered the fbi at the "washington post," and the editor thought i knew what fbi agents looked like but there was a ring on my bell, and in maryland, a very quiet place, very few people ring the bell if opened the door and there were these two very intense looking young men with narrow ties and white shirts, and i said, well, where have you been? i've been expecting you. come on in. and they looked at me strangely, a little scared, and they held out these pamphlets, the watchtower. you might have thought i'd planned the individual who ran across the white house lawn to get into the white house to get publicity for my book. that's not true. on the other hand, in my book, i did predict a lot of the scandals that we see now, based on the corner-cutting and laxness of the secret service. it's not the agents who are actually brave and dedicated and will take a bullet for the president. it's, rather, the management that has created a culture that rewards agents for keeping their mouths shut and perpetrating the myth that secret service is invincible and pun u-s agents as who point out pro

the fbi, is asking the american public to tell the fbi any information they have about any american who is planning to travel to syria to fight with isis what may have traveled there already. any information, no bit of information is too small. but again, tonight, they have expanded on that specifically toward this one target. they apparently believe this is one of those dozen or so americans or at least north american whose joined the fight with isis. again, he's seen participating in killing people in this propaganda video. the fbi is analyzing this particular piece of tape for weeks now but again the breaking news tonight is that as part of the investigation, they have taken the remarkable step of reaching out to the american public specifically in the hopes somebody can identify him. >>> joining us now is nbc news justice correspondent pete williams. pete, thanks for helping us with this. appreciate your time tonight. >> you bet. >> how unusual is it for the fbi to take a case like this to the public. we know about the ten most wanted lists but specifically on a counterterrorism

that is the fbi. i was one of those who fought against dividing the fbi into an mi-5 and scotland yard after 9/11. i thought even though some thoughtful people on the other side had different views, i thought it would be a mistake. i thought there were great strengths from having those authorities and those responsibilities of the national security side and the criminal enforcement side in the same place. i also thought it was very important that any national security organization that focused here in the states be chalk full of a culture of a adherence of the rule of law. so i think one of the things that the commission for the right is that the bureau should not be split up and instead the bureau should work to transform itself to be better at accomplishing especially the national security mission, but all of its missions. so that is my picture of the fbi today. i inherit an fbi about bob mueller worked very hard to begin a number of missions. so i believe we are the best in the world and i've told

here's what fbi did. they violated copyright law, trademark law, they violated state and federal law that prohibit using the internet to commit a fraud or to pretend to be someone or something other than you are. does the associated press have a cause of action against the fbi? can they sue the fbi for the inappropriate use of their trademark? absolutely. will they prevail? i think they will. >> really? >> yes. >> what sort of judgment could you get against an entity like the fbi? >> well, you have to demonstrate what your loss was. >> well integrity. you don't have anything if you don't have that. >> correct. especially in the news business. so the loss of sbeg xwintegrity loss of reputation in the news business, how you put a dollar figure on that, you know, experts will testify before a jury as to what it's worth. here's what the fbi will say. the fbi will say we have qualified immunity, meaning we were engaged in legitimate law enforcement and this is -- this was an accidental byproduct, this injury,

you said the fbi does not do interceptions without a warrant. i was puzzled by that because i can think of at least a few situations in which you guys are authorized to do interceptions without a warrant. is there some policy that you have adopted that you do not do surveillance without a warrant, or were you incorporating various exceptions into remarks? >> a fair question. i thought i gave a fair and accurate answer, the people gave me feedback that said it was insufficient, should have been longer, and what about the exceptions? i wish i had thought about it in the moment. it remains true in the over, over, overwhelming number of our cases, we have courts' authority to collect the content of e-mails or telephones, but there are exceptions to the warrant requirement. one is consent, where someone gives us content to monitor, we can read the content of e-mails and calls a two consent of parties, and, second, where there is collection on a non-u.s. person overseas, under section 702 authorized by the court, if an american is communicating with t

what the fbi thinks. ameriprise asked people a simple question: in retirement, will you have enough money to live life on your terms? i sure hope so. with healthcare costs, who knows. umm... everyone has retirement questions. so ameriprise created the exclusive confident retirement approach. now you and your ameripise advisor.... can get the real answers you need. start building your confident retirement today. >>> dow just turned positive. ibm itself is down about 7% and is dragging down the dow. the dow would be much higher if not for ibm's drag. >>> for nearly 130 years the dow jones industrial average has been the stock market index most referenced. the dow takes lumps with many complaining because of the way it is built one or two stocks could artificially move the index like today. it should be way up if not for ibm. about 21 of the dow 30 are higher so it is a good day for the dow but you would never know it. herb greenberg back with us. a lot of people say because it is a price weighted index that

the fbi branded him the unabomber. despite an investigation that spans 8 states. 35,000 word manifesto written by the unabomber brought an end to the reign of terror. the investigation was hampered by complex layers of bureaucracy and institutional pride and individual egos. today we talk to three fbi agents who were charged to the case by cutting through the procedures and breaking free of bureaucratic restraints. their new book the unabomber, how the fbi broke its own rules details the investigation into the unabomber and how these three men worked together and in the agency. jim freeman was the special agent in charge of the multi-agency una bomb investigation and over saw strategic management. began as a special agent with the fbi in 1964. following the unabomber investigation he retired from the fbi in 1996 and joined charles schwab and recently retired as senior v.p. as global security. >> max knoll served as investigator on the unabomber task force. ultimately concentrating on montana. served as an agent for 30
