Once upon a time, 60 minutes was in fact the gold standard for reporting on world affairs and local issues of import. Long before the "information age" and the internet, it brought places, concepts and issues most Americans would never experience into their homes, along with other topics of the day that most Americans cared about or were affected by. Those days have long been replaced by ultra-liberal op-ed and deliberate bias. In S52E10 there were 2 stories which seemed to exemplify this; 1. the topic of Youtube where the CEO is being accused of "not doing enough" to stem the tide of "hate speech", mistress dye-job says "and that means hearing from people with odious messages..." as they juxtapose a female conservative youtuber. The facelift-queen also goes on to say a specific ad is "not true", when the argument for whether or not this ad is true is still being investigated and is far from conclusive. In other words, we get this story from the viewpoint of the dye-job, and not just the facts presented. 2. When Scott Pelley goes to Lalibella in Ethiopia to talk about the incredible architectural masterworks, he cloyingly smirks and mocks the beliefs of the people and the people he's interviewing. He sarcastically quips "As the story goes, he was helped by angels" to a master architect, as if to say, "aren't you backwards little brown Christians cute with your stories". This arrogant racist couldn't even take two minutes to learn how to pronounce the priest who administers the site, calling him "Tagay Salay Mezgeboo" when his name is Tsigie Selassie Mezgebu (anyone who doesn't at least know how to say the name Selassie seriously has mayonaise flowing through their veins). In sum, this program has degenerated into an amateuristic propaganda machine for the left...not worth watching at all anymore, now that there are other ways to learn about the world and reality.
score 2/10
