 AVN :: Articles - 'PrimeTime Thursday' Updates Controversial Segment on Adult Tonight   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The report that “Primetime Thursday” aired in January, 2003 followed Belladonna’s career through the adult industry for two years, and what came out of the editing bay was "Young Women, Porn and Profits: Corporate America's Secret Affair," viewed by virtually everyone within the adult industry as a hatchet job.
“Primetime Thursday” depicted Belladonna as a young woman trapped in a lifestyle and profession she despises, and in a relationship with Nacho Vidal that seems abusive. 
After the January 20003 show aired Belladonna became the target of criticism from within the adult industry for having become involved in the story, though for every critic she had an apologist suggesting “Primetime Thursday” was the appropriate object of any scorn.

 "Primetime Thursday" Runs Anti-Gun Program
Last night's edition of ABC's "PrimeTime Thursday," devoted to the issue of adolescents and firearms, was yet another example of the "mainstream" media's anti-gun bias.
The program then focused on a "study" conducted by "PrimeTime Thursday" on how two small groups of teenagers acted around firearms.
Several weeks later, the teenagers were part of a hidden-camera experiment to see how they would react when they came across firearms (disabled) planted by "PrimeTime Thursday." While the majority of those involved did the right thing, and reported finding the gun to an adult, Sawyer focused on the kids who did not.

While the reporting on Primetime Thursday may have been accurate as far as it went, the lack of context and balance are difficult to overlook.
A prominent on-camera role during the Primetime Thursday report was played by Steven Rosenberg, MD, PhD, chief of surgery and tumor immunology at the National Cancer Institute.
The other prominent source tapped for an on-camera role by ABC’s Primetime Thursday was Stephen Barrett, MD, a retired psychiatrist and prolific anti-health fraud author whose Web site quackwatch.com is almost uniformly critical of alternative medicine.

And I realize that this is a cultural issue whose origin lies in multiple cloudy areas, ranging from TV news reportage of big business cheaters (like Enron) to the ease of text manipulation in cyberspace.
But Primetime made it clear that the problem is worsening and that it may very well be a "crisis" in the educational system as a whole.
Mike Arnzen recently blogged about the Primetime Thursday special on the "Cheating Crisis." Because I rarely, if ever, watch primetime television (for reasons that have nothing to do with being a snob--I'm simply too lazy to watch primetime television)...

A Jacko-themed Primetime Thursday, airing immediately after 20/20, kept right on moonwalking, with 22.7 million in step.
The shows, which made much of Jackson's admitted predilection for slumber parties with wee ones, were TV's highest-rated newsmags since Barbara Walters got Monica Lewinsky to mouth off about her relationship with then President Clinton in 1999.

If this is what Diane Sawyer meant by "investigate" at the beginning of the show, Primetime should stay away from investigative reporting.
