You don't see particle physics on current affairs television programs every night of the week. This weekend, "60 Minutes" had a story on the Large Hadron Collider.
The story could easily have ended up focused on the "controversy" of black hole creation at the LHC, but the "60 Minutes" team seem to have mostly kept to the facts and done their best to give a flavor of the project, the science, the culture, the people, and the applications. There are some great vignettes of a few US particle physicists talking about their involvement in the LHC, including Monica Dunford, who has a commentary in the new issue of symmetry.
You can watch the four segments of the show at cnet.com.
