A pair of political topics on the Democratic side of the partisan ledger led the networks' nightly agenda. Gun control was the (sort of) lead on ABC. Global warming was the (sort of) lead on CBS -- and the Story of the Day. NBC avoided a directly political lead, as in-house physician Nancy Snyderman followed Monday's example from ABC's in-house physician Richard Besser, kicking off her newscast with the rapid spread of the influenza virus across the nation.

The lone exception was ABC's closing critter feature from Africa's high veldt.
