Now that he's had his way with bloggers and talking dogs on his eponymous talk show, The Charlie Rose Experience, featuring Charlie Rose as Himself, Charlie Rose is ready to take on something meatier. Namely, destroying the careers of four year-old art prodigies. Take that, super babies!

Tonight on 60 Minutes Wednesday, Rose looks at Marla Olmstead, the celebrated pint-sized Picasso. According to a New York Post article with the revolting headline Prodigy Probed (the absolute worst since Pumping Peewees from, well, yesterday):

The Charlie Rose-reported segment includes footage that purportedly shows Marla's family exhorting her to paint and showed it to a child psychologist.

"I saw no evidence that she was a child prodigy in painting," said Ellen Winner, a Boston College Professor who studies gifted children.

"I think she was being urged to continue. Many times she says, 'I'm done,' and there would be silence and she would continue to paint."

Proving that Wednesday's edition is just as hard-hitting as its Sunday counterpart, 60 Minutes Wednesday producers placed a hidden camera in Marla's workspace, which shows "Marla reluctant to paint and unable to come up with ideas." What, like real artists don't get creatively blocked? Sheesh!

It also reveals that, like a real artist, she has screaming fits and pees in her pants from time to time.
