60 Minutes returns to CBS on Sunday April 21, with another hard-hitting episode, covering a range of topics from politics and international affairs to entertainment.
In the “Secretary of Commerce” segment, Lesley Stahl interviews Gina Raimondo, the U.S. Secretary of Commerce under the Biden administration. The discussion focuses on the international “chip war” following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the escalating trade tensions with China over restrictions on the sale of leading-edge semiconductors. Stahl also explores Raimondo’s path to becoming the leader of a crucial department in President Joe Biden’s administration.
The episode then shifts to the “On British Soil” segment, where 60 Minutes contributor Holly Williams takes viewers to the Channel Islands, British Crown dependencies with a controversial history. Less than 100 miles from Britain’s mainland, these islands were occupied by Germany during World War II, and the Nazis operated two concentration camps there. Williams speaks with historians, British government officials, and residents to shed light on this little-known aspect of World War II history.
In the “Kevin Hart” segment, Anderson Cooper profiles the highest-grossing comedian today, Kevin Hart, who has successfully expanded his resume to include the title of entertainment and business mogul. Cooper goes backstage with Hart as he tests out new material for an upcoming comedy tour and sits down with him to discuss his growing empire.
