There was important--yet undercovered--news from overseas. Only NBC had a correspondent cover the suspiciously slow count in the elections in Zimbabwe, using Adrienne Arsenault of its Canadian newsgathering partner CBC. The delay in the results may be evidence that incumbent Robert Mugabe is working to rig an election he lost. And Only CBS had a reporter file from President George Bush's visit to eastern Europe ahaead of a NATO Summit in Romania. Bill Plante took a detour to Chernobyl, where a $1.5bn steel shed is being built to roll over the radioactive ruins of the nuclear power plant. Plante showed us the site, complete with lead lined construction equipment to shield workers. Less than ten minutes after arriving his group exceeded safe radiation exposure limits.
