Season 2011 Episode 1810 | 54m 37s

Tonight on the program, once again debt-laden governments in Europe grappled with massive public anger over austerity measures they'd imposed. Also, we have a newsmaker interview with White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley and we get a report on a Denver hospital that has been successful in reducing medical errors. Finally, we examine the growing dissent in China from young people and labor unions.
