CNN To Debut New bin Laden Special, Soledad O'Brien Education Special This Weekend

CNN will premiere two new specials this weekend, including Soledad O'Briens latest installment of the 'In America' series. Details and airtimes from CNN are below.


CNN Presents: Inside The Mission: Getting bin Laden

CNN’s Chris Lawrence reports on the inside story of the mission to get bin Laden. With debriefs from an array of CNN's most experienced reporters around the world, the special report examines the complex military and intelligence decision-making process that led to the daring capture and killing of the world's most wanted terrorist inside Pakistan on May 2, 2011. CNN Pentagon correspondent Barbara Starr, CNN terrorism analyst Peter Bergen, CNN White House correspondent Ed Henry, senior political analyst Gloria Borger, and senior international correspondent Nic Robertson dissect the long hunt for bin Laden from the mountains of Tora Bora to the compound where he met his end. Former CIA director Michael Hayden, military interrogators, and Former CIA officer Gary Berntsen contribute first-hand knowledge from their experiences tracking bin Laden on the Afghanistan/Pakistan border.


Education In America: Don't Fail Me

CNN anchor and special correspondent Soledad O’Brien follows a national high school robotics competition called FIRST to answer the questions about the future of education in this country and what IS working. Tracking the progress of three teams from three different states across the country, she learns more about the success areas and the gaps in the nation’s preparation for future competitiveness. Only 31 percent of American college students actually graduate in four years, and the most recent international tests ranked U.S. high school students at 17 in the world in science and 20 in math.
