From Turner Home Entertainment, important issues of our time explored in depth and presented up close in these hard-hitting CNN videos from the award-winning Special Reports team.
Bonnie Anderson: About half the households the United States have guns — some 200 million firearms.
Pressing issues like ‘The Arms Race on America's Streets,’ hosted by Emmy award-winning National correspondent Bonnie Anderson.
It costs a billion dollars a year to treat the victims of gunshot wounds in the United States. Get on your knees! If the police could protect you there wouldn't be any robberies there wouldn't be any murders there wouldn't be any shootings. We buy guns to be safer. In reality it's like throwing a gasoline on a fire.
Controversial issues like the battered woman defense...
Experts estimate half of all women will experience violence during their marriage. I mean he held me down and he made me...
‘’til Death Do Us Part’ from cable Ace award-winning senior correspondent Larry Lamont
The failure of police to help women when they first report abuse causes fights in the home to escalate you just can't grab it and yank it and told me to shut up because he didn't want to hear there's a connection that I made with sexuality and violence what happens when things go too far go to a wall I have a black and blue on my knee find out from women who were pushed Beyond the Edge I still killed a man and I'm still gonna have to live with it
Economic issues like the changing job market, ‘Work in Progress’
No one in this country right now has job security there is no job security we're trying to get fewer people to do more work if our workers aren't going to do it then the workers overseas are going to do it
Hosted by cable Ace award-winning senior correspondent Stephen Frazier
The future may have arrived but it's not what we had in mind. We thought computers and other technologies would give us more time off. Instead computers invade our private lives in a situation where your work can go with you it has the potential for taking over your entire life
Disturbing issues like ‘Murder By Numbers’ — serial killers driven by an obsession and nearly impossible to catch the nurse's aide the babysitter the next door neighbor. Ordinary people leading deadly secret lives.
Social issues like ‘Beyond the Glass Ceiling’
Women make up almost 50 percent of the American Workforce yet only fill one out of every 20 executive positions. Why are they still not rising to the top?
Environmental issues like ‘The People Bomb’
Nearly five and a half billion people live on this planet. Before the end of the next century, that number will triple. Can the Earth's limited resources sustain a population spiraling out of control?
Tackling issues like these with the quality and depth that only CNN can provide. Telling it like it is on CNN video.

Yasser Arafat, PLO President (Voice of Translator): I fully realize, Mr. President, that this award, which is of ultimate significance and gesture, was not given to us to crown an endeavor that we had completed, but rather to encourage us to continue a road which we have started.
Yitzhak Rabin:Peace is possible. We see the hope in our children eyes. We see the light in our soldiers faces, in the streets, in the buses, in the fields.
Shimon Peres, Israeli Foreign Minister: We have reached the age where dialogue is really the only way to run the world correctly. Your majesties, ladies and gentlemen, may I wish all of you a happy new year. A year of hope and peace. Thank you.

Over the course of one week in July, 21 pieces of a comet named Shoemaker-Levy 9 rained down on Jupiter. Astronomers predicted it would happen, and were ready for it.
The best pictures came from the Hubble Space Telescope, and left observers breathless.
When the first piece of the comet, Fragment A, observers saw a dark formation thousands of kilometers wide. When the largest fragment, G, hit three days later,
it unleashed a force equal to 500,000,000 Hiroshima-type bombs.
What does this mean for us? Some say Earth could become a bullseye for a comet or an asteroid.
Carl Sagan, Cornell Univ. Astronomer: Chicken Little was mistaken, but, as Shoemaker-Levy 9 hitting Jupiter reminds us, there really are these objects in the sky, and they really do hit worlds.
Shoemaker-Levy 9 leaves behind a legacy: A mountain of data that will keep scientists busy for years.
