ANNOUNCER: This is CNN Breaking News.

SARA SIDNER, CNN HOST: Welcome to CNN NEWSROOM. Thank you for being here. I'm Sara Sidner in New York. Jessica Dean has the night off.

We begin with breaking news. The iconic Oscar-winning actress Diane Keaton has died. She was 79 years old. The celebrated actress, known for her roles in "Annie Hall," "Baby Boom, "First Wives Club," and, of course, the "Godfather" trilogy. She was called the "La-Dee-Da" dame of Hollywood, and her personality showed through a captivating style and a unique brand of comedic timing.

CNN correspondent Julia Vargas Jones joining us now from Los Angeles.

Julia, what are you learning about her passing and the many people who have come forward both surprised and filled with praise for Keaton.

JULIA VARGAS JONES, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Definitely surprising, Sara. What we do know is that this morning the Los Angeles Fire Department was called for medical assistance at her house, at her address in West Los Angeles. And then paramedics transferred a person to a nearby hospital. We also know from producer Dori Rath, who had been recently working with Keaton, that she did, in fact, pass today.

No cause of death is known at this time, and we did reach out to some of her representatives, as well as the Los Angeles Police Department. I'll say that her death was first reported by "People" magazine.

Now the trickling in of the condolences. I cannot tell you how heartfelt they feel. One of them is by Kadee Strickland, who was in "Something's Gotta Give" with Keaton. She said that that, "was one of my first jobs, and I was privileged to work opposite one of my greatest heroes. Diane Keaton wore the cape the entire time. She was welcoming, kind and so very focused. And of course, so funny. An artist of the highest caliber."

And then the great Bette Midler, who co-starred with her in "First Wives Club." She said, "The brilliant, beautiful, extraordinary Diane Keaton has died. I cannot tell you how unbearably sad this makes me. She was hilarious, a complete original, and completely without guile. One of the-- or any competitiveness one would have expected from such a star. What you saw was who she was. Oh, la, lala."

What a heartfelt goodbye there from one of the greats as well, Bette Midler.

SIDNER: Yes, for Bette Midler to call someone hilarious. I mean, that's quite a compliment because she herself is so funny.

[19:05:03]

Julia Vargas Jones, thank you so much for bringing that to us.

And let's go now to look back at the career that Diane Keaton has had, and her great influence in Hollywood and the American zeitgeist. Our Stephanie Elam with more on that.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

STEPHANIE ELAM, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Skilled at both drama and comedy, Diane Keaton was one of Hollywood's most enduring actresses. Born Diane Hall, the L.A. native landed her first major roles in Broadway productions like "Hair" and Woody Allen's "Play It Again, Sam," a role she later reprised on the big screen.

DIANE KEATON, OSCAR-WINNING ACTRESS: You always think of baseball players when you're making love?

ELAM: But it was another Woody Allen romantic comedy that launched her into stardom. "Annie Hall."

KEATON: Oh, why? You got a car?

ELAM: The 1977 classic was loosely based on her relationship with Allen, and showcased her quirky personality and style. It also earned her an Academy Award for Best Actress.

KEATON: Annie Hall" gave me everything. "Annie Hall" gave me the opportunity to do all the things that I've been privileged to do.

ELAM: She was Allen's muse in several of his other films, including "Interiors" and "Manhattan"?

KEATON: You know, you got a good sense of humor.

ELAM: Keaton made her mark in dramas as well. She played Kay Adams, the wife of mob boss Michael Corleone in the iconic "Godfather" films.

KEATON: There would be no way, Michael. No way you could ever forgive me.

I think that she was not a typical mafia wife. That's the problem. She didn't fit. She was the wrong fit. And I thought that that was what was interesting about my part.

I remember always the door being shut in my face. ELAM: Keaton also gave a powerful performance in the dark, violent

"Looking for Mr. Goodbar," and earned Oscar nominations for her work with then boyfriend Warren Beatty in "Reds" and opposite Meryl Streep in the family drama "Marvin's Room."

KEATON: God, are you that old?

ELAM: Keaton turned to lighter fare in later years, starring in comedies like "Father of the Bride," "The First Wives Club," and "Something's Gotta Give."

KEATON: He knew that I was still in love with you.

ELAM: Off screen, Keaton's attire generated buzz and made her a fashion icon and influencer. Her self-styled gender bending wardrobe first grabbed attention in "Annie Hall" and often featured men's ties, suits, vests, thick belts and hats.

And while she had relationships with a few of her famous co-stars, Keaton never married. She did adopt two children in her 50s, and in addition to acting, directed TV shows, wrote bestselling memoirs, and pursued her passions of photography and preserving historic buildings.

Diane Keaton, a Hollywood original who brought her unique, unconventional style to a host of unforgettable roles.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

SIDNER: It's truly surprising that she is gone. What an icon.

We will have much more on Keaton's passing ahead, but first, we've got more breaking news out of the Middle East. Israel's hostage coordinator telling the families of the 48 people held by Hamas that the hostages release will begin on Monday morning.

Their return is part of the first phase of the U.S. brokered ceasefire deal for Gaza. Tens of thousands of people gathered tonight in Hostages Square in Tel Aviv to celebrate the long awaited deal. And in Gaza, tens of thousands of Palestinians are beginning to return home or to what is left of their homes. After two years of brutal Israeli bombardment, many people are returning to complete ruin.

CNN's Oren Liebermann has the very latest for us from Tel Aviv.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

OREN LIEBERMANN, CNN JERUSALEM BUREAU CHIEF: There is a tremendous sense of anticipation here. After two years of war, the return of the remaining hostages held in Gaza, 48 hostages are set to be released, 20 of whom are believed to be alive as we expect to see the first phase of the ceasefire agreement under President Donald Trump's 20- point proposal play out over the course of the next 48 hours or so.

The deadline for Hamas to release the remaining hostages is Monday at noon. But the timing remains unclear. Whether it happens on Sunday afternoon or overnight Sunday into Monday that has yet to be determined. But still the anticipation here we saw that and we felt it in Hostages Square in Tel Aviv throughout the day on Saturday.

In the morning, there was a crowd of hundreds that were determined to be there and be together, strangers coming together effectively as a family, waiting for the remaining hostages to come home and showing strength in a place that for so long Hostages Square has been a location of mourning, desperation and anger.

A very different feeling there. And as it got into Saturday evening, we saw thousands, hundreds of thousands, according to the Hostages and Missing Families Forum pack the square and the surrounding streets.

U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff was there and spoke, as did President Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Every time they mention Trump, there was a loud and boisterous applause, a sense of thanks that you could very much feel for the person they view as making this happen, as pushing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to come to this agreement, to sign the ceasefire, to end the war, and to bring the remaining hostages home.

[19:10:18]

When Witkoff tried to mention Netanyahu, a very different reaction. Boos across the crowd, loud and for quite some time here, until Witkoff was able to calm the crowd and move on and say he was a part of making this moment happen.

Now, the question, when does this begin to play out? And that's what we are still waiting to see. After we see Hamas release the remaining hostages, again 20 of whom are believed to be alive, 28 of whom are deceased, we will see at some point after that Israel released 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and 1700 Palestinians detained since the beginning of the war. In preparation for that, Israel has already begun to move Palestinian prisoners to locations and prisons in southern Israel from which they will be released, and a number of them will be deported.

The release of hostages, prisoners and detainees is the crucial first phase of this ceasefire agreement. After that comes the second phase, and that includes the international security force that's supposed to move into Gaza, the disarmament of Hamas, as well as the rebuilding of Gaza. But the details to make that happen, crucially, have yet to be worked out. And those will be very difficult negotiations that have to be held in the days ahead.

Oren Liebermann, CNN, in Tel Aviv.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

SIDNER: Our thanks to Oren there.

President Trump, as you heard, set to arrive in Israel on Monday, expected to meet hostage families and Israeli leaders before addressing the Israeli parliament. From there, he will head to Egypt to a summit that will host leaders from the signing -- for the signing of the ceasefire agreement.

For more on what we can expect to see there, we go to our Nic Robertson, who is in Sharm El-Sheikh.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

NIC ROBERTSON, CNN INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMATIC EDITOR: This is characterized as a summit by the Egyptian leadership, which are hosting this and hosted the last round and the sort of final round of talks that pushed the phase one over the line. And there'll be a lot of people here. There will be some sort of signing ceremony.

What's being signed, who signs it, will the Israelis -- will Prime Minister Netanyahu have signed it before the document gets here? None of that is clear at the moment. But what we do know is the leaders that were involved in supporting this from Europe, the French President Emmanuel Macron, who just in the past couple of days has hosted a meeting to kind of hammer out the after day one things that are required, humanitarian steps, rebuilding steps for Gaza. He'll be here.

The Italian prime minister, the German chancellor, the British prime minister, the British prime minister says he's going to come here. He'll praise the Egyptians, the Qataris, the Turks, all who helped mediate this, or praise President Trump for what he did. But he'll also say, look, we have to focus. And this is what you were raising there on phase two. We have to focus, he will say, on the -- on the force that will oversee the disarmament, that will oversee the ceasefire and international security force.

Well, the Hill say we need to focus on building that and also discuss, you know, the details around forming this transitional government. Also at the summit, you'll have the leaders of what's been called now the New York Eight. Those are the eight Muslim majority and Arab leaders who met with President Trump, who listened to his 21-point plan, became a 20-point plan.

So you'll have obviously the Egyptian president, the Turkish president, Jordanian king will be here. The Emiratis will be represented here. The crown prince of Saudi Arabia is expected here. So too the Indonesian leader, the Pakistan leader under -- as well as a couple of others there.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

SIDNER: Our thanks to Nic Robertson who's in Sharm El-Sheikh. We appreciate all of his reporting from the region.

We are joined now by Democratic Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi from Illinois. He serves on the House Intelligence and Oversight Committee.

Congressman, thank you so much for spending some time with us here on this Saturday. I do want to start with the ceasefire deal. How much credit do you think Donald Trump and his envoy deserve for getting an agreement on phase one of this permanent ceasefire agreement?

REP. RAJA KRISHNAMOORTHI (D-IL): I think they deserve credit. They deserve credit for basically bringing parties to the table and, you know, seeing this hopefully through to the hostage release but also massive humanitarian aid flowing into the Gaza Strip hopefully very soon. And on top of that, remembering that at the end of the day, we need to have a rebuilding of the Gaza Strip so that it can, you know, reach the aspirations of the Palestinian people and ultimately become a Palestinian state.

[19:15:08]

We need a two-state solution, which is vital for long-term peace and stability in the Middle East.

SIDNER: Let me ask you, back here at home, and we are looking at some of these pictures from Khan Younis in Gaza. You are seeing tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians on foot, who were going back to their homes. And it is utter destruction there.

How much should the United States be involved in trying to help rebuild? First, remove the rubble. About 70 percent of the buildings are destroyed, according to experts looking at the destruction there. How much should the United States be involved in trying to help rebuild Gaza and to help secure Gaza?

KRISHNAMOORTHI: Well, I understand that there's going to be some presence within Israel of, you know, a representation of our military to help with coordinating some logistics and some of the security arrangements to be worked out. I think that the neighbors in the region, primarily the Gulf states, are very interested in investing within the Gaza Strip and helping to rebuild. And I think that we should help to facilitate that, along with others.

I think there's going to be resources, but there needs to be stability. At the end of the day, nobody is going to build or invest or help the Palestinian people, you know, set up the architecture of a Palestinian state unless Hamas is out of the picture but there's peace and stability. And I think that is job number one right now.

SIDNER: Let's come back to what is happening here in the United States. We are in day 11 of a government shutdown. There has been no real sense that there is a deal being made in the background. And now we are seeing the Trump administration do what it promised, Trump saying, look, they've laid off more than 4,000 federal employees so far. And the president has vowed to target what he called Democrat oriented workers.

What does that mean to you?

KRISHNAMOORTHI: I think it's, again, weaponizing government for political purposes. And that's exactly what, you know, I hear from my constituents they don't want. They want a president who will bring people together, not divide them. And they don't like the status quo right now. They don't want a situation.

I'll just paint a picture of the status quo here in Illinois. We have ICE raids that are out of control. Just today in my district ICE basically separated a teenager, 15-year-old from her family, knelt on her back with their knee, took her out of a car, and that was just outrageous. It was appalling.

They don't want a situation where Obamacare premium tax credits are about to expire and five million people are about to lose their health insurance. So they want changes to the status quo. And that's what is going to be necessary for Democrats to get on board with Donald Trump at this point.

At the end of the day, they control all branches of the government. They have responsibility for coming to the table and negotiating a resolution. They need to do it right now.

SIDNER: Let me ask you, because, you know, you are charged with representing people in Illinois. We have seen these very aggressive ICE raids there. But DHS says, look, we've been able to arrest some, you know, some hardened criminals, some rapists, some and murderers. And it seemingly the ends justify the means. Do you think that, with them saying, look, we've caught some people from Tren de Aragua? What do you make of how DHS, how ICE has been acting in your state?

KRISHNAMOORTHI: It's been appalling. They were tasked originally when Donald Trump got elected president and inaugurated with removing violent criminals from our midst. And I think people were on board with that. However, after that, they've been basically going after anyone and everyone who may fit a certain type. And what we've learned based on the Cato Institute's analysis of who's actually been detained, 60 percent to 70 percent of arrests have been of people without a criminal record.

And, now in my district, we have people who have been dragged out of their homes who are legal permanent residents and U.S. citizens. That's completely unacceptable. And so now we need to rein in ICE. We need to absolutely make sure that the Trump administration is held accountable.

[19:20:02]

I've asked for Kristi Noem to come before the Oversight Committee to answer for her actions and ICE's actions. And I intend to bring her before our committee.

SIDNER: Yes or no, do you think ICE has a role that they need to play, though?

KRISHNAMOORTHI: Oh, absolutely. They have a role, but they are now out of control. That's the problem. They are acting with impunity. I went to a local ICE facility to try to do my oversight and inspect it, and I was evicted as a trespasser after they called the CPD on me.

We are in a situation where they are acting as though they are not accountable to anybody. And when that happens, bad things happening -- happen. And that's what's happening right now. Very bad things.

SIDNER: Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, thank you for taking the time on this Saturday to speak with us. Appreciate it.

KRISHNAMOORTHI: Thank you. SIDNER: Still to come, actress Diane Keaton's impact on Hollywood and

on America writ large. She has died at the age of 79. Stay with us.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

[19:25:46]

SIDNER: I want to bring you back to our breaking news now. The iconic Oscar winning actress Diane Keaton is dead. She was 79 years old. She was called the "La-Dee-Da" dame of Hollywood and also known for her great style.

Rob Shuter joins us now.

You have met Keaton several times. Can you give us a sense of what she was like in person? Because I know she's written -- she's written several books, and in one of them, she talked about being hard to know. What was she like in person?

ROB SHUTER, AUTHOR, "NAUGHTY BUT NICE" ON SUBSTACK: She was very mysterious. That's a very wise thing for her to write. She was mysterious. She wasn't -- she didn't want to be a movie star. She liked the craft of acting. She really loved singing. Singing was her passion. She made all these iconic movies, and yet she really kept reporters, people like me, at bay.

She didn't want to be a celebrity. And I think that was so interesting about her, is that she always made it about the work. Even though she had some very high-profile romances, and she was in all the magazines all the time, she wanted to focus on her work.

SIDNER: Yes. I mean, she wrote her own, you know, her books and told you a little bit about herself in those. But I think a lot of us, I got to be honest, like, my jaw dropped when I saw "People" magazine was the first to put out that she had died because I had heard nothing about any sort of illness or issue.

Did you have any inkling that this could happen today?

SHUTER: Nobody had any idea. And I think that's why this news dropped with the weight that it did. We know about celebrities. We know Dolly Parton is going through some health issues at the moment. We know when celebrities disappear from the spotlight.

Now, looking back, we had not seen her for about six months, but that was not unusual with her. She often disappeared when she wasn't making a film, so nobody had any ideas. I've been doing this for a really long time. I normally hear some whispers, some conversations. Absolutely nothing. And at the moment we still know very little about the actual death here. The circumstances, the details, we do not know yet.

And so once again, total shock. People in Hollywood are absolutely amazed by this. People around the world are just finding out about it now, and we had no time to prepare because we had no indication. SIDNER: Yes, and maybe that's the way she would have liked it, because

like you said, she didn't love the celebrity of it all. She loved the craft of acting and was so good at it. So funny. But also so great in dramatic roles.

What do you think is the legacy that she leaves behind? Because she wasn't just known for her great acting, she was also known for her incredible style as well.

SHUTER: Yes. I think what she's going to leave behind is a lesson for us all to be ourselves. I'm sure there was a lot of pressure to fit into a Hollywood mold. She always refused. She always marched to the beat of her own drum. She wore the fashion that she wanted to wear. She said what she wanted to say. She loved singing. Just last year, she put out a holiday song. And I think a lot of people thought that was odd, unusual. It was. But in the most wonderful way.

She was the most whimsical, most unusual, most different celebrity I think I have met in a very, very long time. So I think that's what people are going to take away from this. Yes, she's a great actress. Yes, she's a great human being. But she taught us all to be ourselves. Be yourself.

SIDNER: Yes. She broke the mold and we know we've heard many stories of her helping other women in the industry as well. A very tough industry indeed for whoever gets into it.

Rob Shuter, it is a pleasure to be able to speak to you this -- at this really hard time.

All right. Coming up, new details just in on that deadly explosion, that look at what it left behind. What officials are saying now about any potential victims and whether or not they could have survived this.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

SIDNER: This just in, Tennessee officials are lowering the number of victims from Friday's explosion at a military and explosives plant. Authorities initially said 18 people were dead or missing after this earth shattering blast. Look at the damage it did, just wiping out the facility. They now say, though, the number is 16. Officials, though, are now shifting to recovery efforts. Investigators do not believe anyone could have survived that explosion and they're looking into the cause now.

[19:35:01]

Overseas now, part of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, in blackout tonight after Russia attacked its energy infrastructure, killing one person. Russia has been striking at Ukraine's energy systems. Almost every single day since last month in a bid to leave Ukrainians in the dark and without heat before the bitter winter begins. Russia took responsibility for the attack, calling it retaliation for Kyiv's recent attacks on Russia. Remember that Russia was the one that invaded Ukraine. Also, still ahead, Americans are experiencing loneliness at an increasingly high rate. Our Harry Enten is going to run the numbers for us when we come back.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

[19:40:21]

SIDNER: There is a silent epidemic affecting many Americans -- loneliness. CNN's chief data analyst, Harry Enten joins us to run the numbers for us.

HARRY ENTEN, CNN CHIEF DATA ANALYST: Hey there Sara. You know, yesterday was National Mental Health Day. I know it's a day that you highlighted and you pointed out that you feel lonely sometimes. And you know what? If you feel lonely and you feel like you're alone. You're not alone in those feelings. What are we talking about? Well, let's take a look at some trend lines that I think are a little bit worrying.

Have five or more close friends. You know, back in 1990, it was 63 percent not including relatives. You jump forward to 2024, that number has fallen significantly. We're talking now 40 percent of Americans, 40 percent of Americans, just 40 percent who say they have five or more close friends, not including relatives. And the percentage of Americans who say that they have no friends at all. Get this -- it's up from just three percent back in 1990 to now, 17 percent of Americans who say they have no close friends at all, not including relatives.

And of course, if you don't have close friends, you're probably going to spend more time alone. And that is exactly what the data is showing us. Indeed, there's been a big jump just over the last decade. Take a look here.

Okay, hours spent alone per day. Now, this is the average of all those aged 15 and older. Look, in 2014, the average person spent about 5.5 hours alone per day. Of course, this is not including sleep. Now that number is up significantly. We're talking about 6.7 hours a day spent alone on average. That is a jump of more than an hour in less than a decade. We are now spending more -- an hour more alone than we did just ten years ago back in 2014.

Now, we have fewer friends. We're spending more time alone. Does that necessarily mean that were feeling less lonely, right, because some of us, me included, like a little downtime. We want to be a little bit alone.

Now, the data there is not necessarily as clear as you want, because we don't have as much longitudinal data. That is data over time. But the data that we do have does, in fact, suggest that people are feeling more lonely. And that's especially the case at the bottom of the age brackets.

What are we talking about, twelfth graders, because we do have longitudinal data there. Take a look here, 12th graders who often feel lonely. Back in 2003, it was about 28 percent of 12th graders who said they often felt lonely. You jump ahead to 2023, that's now up to get this -- 40 percent. So, were talking about a 12-point jump in the percentage of 12th graders who say they often feel lonely. And as I said, that is oftentimes the age bracket that feels the most lonely. That is a bit of a surprise.

You might expect that the older up you go on the age bracket, especially as you become a senior citizen, you'll leave the workforce. You might feel more lonely. Indeed, its often the youngest of us who feel more lonely, and it looks like we're feeling more lonely basically, than any time before, except out -- except for, of course, the coronavirus pandemic, when we were all inside.

Let me just end by saying this on a personal note. You know, I spoke about folks having fewer friends than they used to. But Sara Sidner, I always want you to know you always have my number. I have your numbers, and you will always have a friend in me.

Back to you, my dear friend.

SIDNER: Harry is my dear friend, and I have to admit that even though I felt shame about it, I have bouts of loneliness too. So you really are not alone.

All right, coming up, new images revealing a stunning phenomenon on the Mars' surface. More on what discovery tells us about the Red Planet.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

[19:48:29]

SIDNER: We have some new insight into what's going on, on Mars. The red planet reportedly experiencing dust devils. You know, those tornado like whirlwinds. And these are winds that reach almost 100 miles per hour. CNN aerospace analyst, Miles O'Brien.

Miles, I get to talk to you today, it's so exciting. All right, what is the significance of this discovery?

MILES O'BRIEN, CNN AEROSPACE ANALYST Well, one thing I want to point out here, Sara. If you saw the movie "The Martian" with Matt Damon, you know how the windstorm is pivotal in that and actually, 100 mile per hour windstorm on Mars would feel like a light breeze to us because the atmosphere is about 100th of ours.

Now, you look at these images, which are very interesting. These are the highest winds ever documented on the surface of Mars. Scientists looked at 20 years of images from European satellites that are orbiting around the Red Planet, applied some artificial intelligence pattern recognition, and identified more than a thousand of these little mini tornadoes or dust devils, and came up with all this fascinating data that no one expected on the amount of these things, the frequency of them and the wind speed of them. And all this factors into the Mars' climate and ultimately how you design missions to Mars. SIDNER: That's so cool. What kinds of things can we learn about our universe when you have a discovery like this? And just to put it out there that like, how amazing is it that we can actually see this kind of detail on Mars, which is so far away.

[19:50:05]

O'BRIEN: Yes, I mean, you can't see wind normally, but this gives you evidence of what's going on there. There have been planet wide dust storms on mars which have affected NASA missions over the years. There's no rain to wash away the dust. So, sometimes these get really kicked up.

And this has a lot to do with how you design a spacecraft. For example, solar arrays can get dust on them, which is kicked up by these dust devils. But the flip side of it is that they can also wipe away the dust. So how do you design where to land, what those solar arrays might look like? Do they need some kind of wiper device on them? Those kinds of things factor in and I just got to put a plug in.

This data comes from satellites which had missions that were not defined dust devils. This was scientists being clever, looking at some old data and when the current administration starts talking about cutting science programs at NASA in half, this is the kind of data, this is the kind of science you end up losing when you do that.

SIDNER: Miles O'Brien, you're always so great on this. Thank you so much for hanging out with us this Saturday. All right, let's end with this.

Tonight, were remembering the life and legacy of Oscar winning actress Diane Keaton. Here is what she said in 2013 while promoting her film "The Big Wedding," sharing one of her favorite hobbies.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DIANE KEATON, ACTRESS: Can I just say something?

CNN REPORTER: 360": Sure.

KEATON: Because I want to say something. I am addicted to CNN and I watch it every single day of my life, and I just want to tell you that I know all the characters. I'm not kidding. It's truly a -- it's a little bit of a problem. I have a little bit of an addiction to CNN and it's the truth.

CNN REPORTER: Well, we are certainly honored with that.

KEATON: Are you really?

CNN REPORTER: Absolutely.

KEATON: No, you're just pulling my leg.

CNN REPORTER: No, are you kidding? What thing could I hear --

KEATON: No.

CNN REPORTER: -- CNN than to hear that, Diane Keaton --

KEATON: Oh yes.

CNN REPORTER: What do you love about it?

KEATON: I love the information. And I love the cast of characters. Do you know? I mean --

CNN REPORTER: -- Wolf.

KEATON: Oh, yes, but early morning, too, you know, Carol Costello, I think she's a crackup. And Suzanne Malveaux is so sweet and pretty, and Don Lemon, I like Don Lemon. I like them all. I like everyone, it's true. You become acquainted with them. They live with me and I have it on all the time. And when I get, you know, like when I work on a movie, I always try to make sure that I can get CNN in the makeup trailer because I don't want to be without it.

CNN REPORTER: That is awesome.

KEATON: I try to put it into my contract, give me a little CNN, please. I don't care how big the T.V. set, I just need to see them.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

[19:57:38]

SIDNER: As you know, football is back. But guess what? So is the ugly side of game day. CNN's Ed Lavandera takes us inside the phenomenon of fan violence in tonight's episode of "The Whole Story."

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ED LAVANDERA, CNN SENIOR NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: This is the perfect weekend to explore what happens when fandom turns into violence. It is Texas O.U. weekend here in Dallas where we are, and it's a good. chance for me to plug. The fact that I'm a University of Texas alum, very passionate about my Longhorns, and obviously it's a big weekend. But there are so many instances and something that I've noticed over the last few years of this fan fandom turning into violence.

And you've probably been to a sporting events where you've seen inexplicably fight start breaking out, and we're going to explore why it does this happen. It seems to ruin a perfectly good time. So we want to kind of get into the psychology of what happens to us when we are turning up at these sporting events around the country.

You got to the point when you were writing your book among the thugs. I felt like you got the sense that you could almost figure out when things were about to erupt.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I could see it on his face. Something bad here is going to happen.

LAVANDERA: We were talking about some of the videos that we showed you, the violence that American sporting events. What do you think is behind that?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I think what you're seeing is kind of a contagion of violence. Ten years ago. People were arguing, you know, they had some bad words between them. They would maybe get sulky or swear or, you know, storm off. But now it goes pretty quickly to violence. And once that's planted, it's quite hard to eradicate.

LAVANDERA: Several years ago, I started noticing that the days after big games of any kind of sport. Really. You start seeing on YouTube, social media these viral clips of people fighting and the fights just seemed absolutely absurd and wild and inexplicable. So, we're going to get into a lot of that and understanding just why it happens and really kind of getting into this idea and the really troubling aspect of all of this is that in many cases, what is supposed to be a fun time at a sporting event has turned into life-altering tragedies.

So there's some real life consequences to what happens at some of these sporting events around the country. Back to you.
