Psychodrama on "20/20"

[Kim Cox]

Hi all,

After extensive searching, I finally found a listing for the tape of this
episode on the ABC News Store page. Here is the direct link:

http://abcnewsstore.go.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/DSIProductDisplay?catalogId=11002&storeId=20051&productId=2016108&langId=-1&categoryId=100013

If the link doesn't work, go to abcnews.com, and go to the very bottom of
the page and look for the link that says "ABC News Store". The first item
listed on the store page is "20/20: Tom Cruise/etc....1/18/08". Click on
this to get to the order page.

They charge $29.95 per tape. The show does include other stories, the one on
the woman with anorexia is the last story featured.
