Season 2011 Episode 2920 | 52m 51s

Riots erupted in Athens, Greece, Wednesday as thousands protested another round of tax hikes and spending cuts. Also, we examine Tuesday's feisty GOP debate in Las Vegas and what it means going forward for Republican candidates and we take a look at the impact for seniors after a rise in social security benefits passed. Finally, we look at one man's effort to bridge Brazil's digital divide.
