THE BIG STORY
The Virgnia Tech Shootings
We've all heard the grisly details and seen the sickening video of the Virginia Tech shootings. But out of this horrible tragedy comes amazing forgiveness. A makeshift memorial on campus includes a semi-circle of stones each of which has a ribbon with the name of someone who died in the shooting spree. There are 33 stones, including one for the gunman, Cho Seung-hui. "His family is suffering just as much as anyone else. So I think we should put a stone out for him, too," 17-year-old Elizabeth Lineberry told USA Today. "He was a Hokie just like everyone else."
WORTH CHECKING OUT
The Springer Hustle (VH1, Sundays at 11pm/EST and repeats all week)
Go behind the scenes of the Jerry Springer show to see how producers do whatever it takes to get guests. This show shows it all, including how producers coach guests on what they should say and how they sweat it out in the hopes of putting on the trashiest show possible. An interesting look at how a national talk show is pieced together that proves things aren't always what they seem.
