Here is the LENR-CANR news section announcement. Note that I included

CBS 60 Minutes reports on cold fusion
April 2009
The CBS newsmagazine 60 minutes will report on cold fusion on April
19, 2009. See:

"COLD FUSION IS HOT AGAIN - Presented in 1989 as a revolutionary new
source of energy, cold fusion was quickly dismissed as junk science.
But today, the buzz among scientists is that these experiments
produce a real physical effect that could lead to monumental
breakthroughs in energy production. Scott Pelley reports. Denise
Schrier Cetta is the producer."
A detailed description of the broadcast is here:

CBS asked Prof. Robert Duncan to do an independent evaluation of the
literature and to visit researchers and experiments. Duncan has not
performed cold fusion experiments himself and had the impression that
the original claims were mistaken. He now says "I am convinced that
this excess-heat effect is real."
Most experts who have conducted independent evaluations of cold
fusion have concluded the effect is real, notably Garwin, and
Gerisher, who wrote: ""In spite of my earlier conclusion, -- and that
of the majority of scientists, -- that the phenomena reported by
Fleischmann and Pons in 1989 depended either on measurement errors or
were of chemical origin, there is now undoubtedly overwhelming
indications that nuclear processes take place in the metal alloys."
