There's going to be a segment on Darfur on Sixty Minutes (CBS) tonight at 7:00. There is a brief video preview here. It looks like it might be a decent show, and as Nick Kristof of the New York Times reminded us in his blog, CBS has done a really horrible job until now covering the conflict in Darfur.

Additionally, the conflict there is worsening--it has spread into other countries (like Chad) and the Sudanese government is working hard to kick out all the aid that's in the region that's helping the millions of displaced people living in refugee camps.

I don't know how good this report will be tonight, but at least its not ignoring the problem. Take a look if you have time.
