The KONY 2012 rabbit hole is deep and dark. In today's show, we'll poke our heads in and take a quick look around.

KONY 2012 is viral You Tube film produced by the controversial Invisible Children organization. It explicitly calls for a US military intervention in Uganda to arrest warlord Joseph Kony, claiming this "grassroots" campaign and subsequent government action will serve as a model to end injustice and crimes against humanity in the world.
