"DOSE OF CONTROVERSY": MATT LAUER LOOKS AT AUTISM-VACCINE WARS
On Sunday, Dateline will devote the hour to autism. "Dose of Controversy", reported by Matt Lauer, features an interview with Dr. Andrew Wakefield, the lead author of a famous and controversial 1998 study suggesting a potential link between autism and the MMR vaccine.

NETWORKS COVER ABDUCTION STORY
While most of the news coverage has focused on Sen. Kennedy's services, the cable and broadcast networks have also picked up one of the stranger stories this week, that of Jaycee Dugard who was kidnapped in 1991 and held captive for 18 years, giving birth to two children with her captor. This morning on "The Early Show," Jaycee's step-father Carl Probyn, spoke with Maggie Rodriguez and Chris Wragge about the developments. (CBS video here.) Probyn...

MORE HOLOGRAM TECHNOLOGY COMING TO CABLE
First it was CNN's tomograms -- not holograms -- used during election night last year (remember Jessica Yellin playing the part of a Jedi Knight?) Well now ESPN is getting in the game. B&C's Glen Dickson reports on the technology which could hit the ESPN airwaves this spring. Dickson went to Bristol to see a test: ESPN assembled longtime anchor Chris Berman and EVP of technology Chuck Pagano in a conference room, seated some eight...
