60 Minutes (1968)

Season 52: Episode 1

Norah O’Donnell interviews Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman for his first appearance on American television to discuss the murder of the Washington Post columnist, Jamal Khashoggi. It is also his first interview since his kingdom’s oil facilities were bombed. Next, Scott Pelley has been in the nation’s capital all week observing the raging impeachment inquiry into the presidency of Donald Trump, gathering the facts and people to tell this fascinating story, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif). Lastly, Bill Whitaker was on the water in New England and Nova Scotia earlier this month, where sightings of great white sharks close to beaches have created what scientists are saying is a mostly unwarranted fear. He reports on the resurgence of perhaps man’s most feared creature: the great white shark. Neither scientist nor beachgoer can deny there are many more of those big fish in the ocean than ever before.
