A story called “What’s Wrong with the Bees?” will be airing this Sunday on the television program 60 Minutes.
Also, starting Sunday night, you can watch clips from the program, as well as some extras that weren’t on TV, at http://60minutes.yahoo.com/.
Beekeeper Dave Hackenberg has been stung so many times, he’s become immune to the pain and discomfort. But losing more of his honeybees to a mysterious disorder this fall and winter will be a sting he may not recover from.
The disorder and the ramifications of Hackenberg going out of business along with others like him, whose bees help produce a third of the foods we eat, are examined in a Steve Kroft report to be broadcast on 60 MINUTES Sunday, Oct. 28 (7:00-8:00 PM,
ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
That’s 8:00 - 9:00 p.m. in the Atlantic time zone.
