The TV Zone

First, Jimmy Kimmel...now, "Nightline:" the ABC News program will give itself over to Ben Affleck this Thursday (11:35), as he charts his travels through the Congo over the last eight months. "NL" producer "Max Culhane and photographer Doug Vogt joined Affleck on his most recent trip to document his journey as he made his way through refugee camps, hospitals, clinics, meetings with warlords, relief workers, child soldiers and members of parliament in an effort to better understand the place where more than 4 million people have died in the deadliest conflict since World War II."

Here's an interesting canned quote from Affleck: "People should see actors on television doing charitable work and be suspicious of that and at the end of watching this I hope they find themselves less suspicious of that and more interested in this and perhaps involved in it.”
