1. "Congress: Trading Stock on inside information?"
Apparently, some members of Congress are exchanging stock in companies for valuable inside information that will influence decisions they make. They will do nearly anything to hold on to their jobs and the power that comes with it, despite only making $174,000 a year and spending millions in campaigning.

2. "Penn State president explains McQueary status"
Penn State has had a recent trend of firings, and yet one of the assistent coaches once involved in the child sex scandal has yet to be cut. The reason behind this is that there are "legal issues" involved with McQueary's case.

3. "Questioning Pelosi: Steve Kroft heads to DC"
60 Minutes correspondant Steve Kroft attempted to get an interview about the recent stock trade information (which, as it happens, is not illegal). He was denied this and ended up publicly questioning Nancy Pelosi at a press conference in order to get what he needed.
