I saw the one last night.  I also saw a similar "report" that they did on it
a few months ago.  Comparitively speaking, the one last night was great.

The first time they aired it, at the end of the report, Ms. Norville said
something like "About 60% of new moms in America are choosing to breastfeed,
but virtually all babies are weaned by 12 months."   She did not repeat
those comments last night.

This time, they stated the WHO & AAP recommendations, emphasizing the "and
beyond" and "as long as mutually desired" parts.

They interviewed Liz Baldwin.  Of course, that was beautiful.

Altogether, it was great!  I was quite impressed.  (They must have gotten a
bit of flack the other times they aired it.  lol)
