Above the Law: Insider Trading on Capitol Hill



On Saturday, there was a CD post featuring a preview of the "60 Minutes" segment "Congress: Trading stock on inside information?" The full episode aired last night and appears above; it's based on Peter Schweizer's forthcoming book, "Throw them All Out." Following a preview by Steve Kroft, here's how the segment opens:
