60 Minutes: Price Gouging/Targeting Seniors/Jeff Koons airs Sunday May 21, 2023 on CBS
Price Gouging – An investigation by 60 Minutes reveals how U.S. defense contractors exploit the Pentagon and American taxpayers. The accountability system in the Department of Defense is broken, according to former top contract negotiator Shay Assad, who Bill Whitaker interviewed. Meanwhile, major defense companies have plenty of cash to distribute to shareholders.
Targeting Seniors – Cybercriminals are now stealing over $10 billion annually from American seniors by preying on them with artificial intelligence, apps, and social engineering. Sharyn Alfonsi talks to people who have fallen victim to these scams, law enforcement officials, and tech experts to learn more about how to safeguard the elderly from them.
Jeff Koons – Jeff Koons, one of the most famous and divisive artists in the world, is the subject of Anderson Cooper’s latest profile. His sculptures and paintings, which he often models after commonplace items or well-known figures, can take decades to complete and frequently test the limits of both technology and taste. At a stone workshop in Pennsylvania and at his New York studio, Koons gives 60 MINUTES an exclusive look at the artwork he hopes will one day be on display on the moon.
