This Sunday, “CBS News Sunday Morning,” the newsmagazine anchored by Jane Pauley, offers its usual eclectic mix of hard news, human interest, and cultural deep dives. Leading the lineup is an exclusive television interview with media titan Barry Diller, conducted by Tracy Smith. Diller’s new memoir, aptly titled “Who Knew,” is sure to offer some choice pronouncements and behind-the-scenes looks into the world of media and deal-making.
On the tech front, David Pogue takes a spin – literally – with Waymo, the driverless taxi service. Pogue chats with Chief Product Officer Saswat Panigrahi about the program’s progress, navigating the bumpy road to autonomous transportation, and the inevitable questions about safety and regulation.
Elsewhere, Patricia Clarkson sits down with Faith Salie to discuss her role in the new film, “Lilly,” based on the life of equal pay advocate Lilly Ledbetter. It’s likely to be a timely discussion about the ongoing fight for wage equality.
In the realm of art and craft, Jonathan Vigliotti features the unique work of artist Thomas Deininger, who creates optical illusions from discarded junk. Think high-concept art with a hefty dose of recycling. Meanwhile, Jo Ling Kent examines the lingering effects of Trump-era tariffs on businesses and consumers.
Rounding out the lineup are Mo Rocca’s profile of the Nakashima family of woodworkers, a Mother’s Day-themed visit with Josh Seftel and his mom, Pat, for a segment called “MOM ON THE MOVE,” some Mother’s Day musings from comedian Jim Gaffigan, and the latest dispatch from the Vatican courtesy of Seth Doane.
“CBS News Sunday Morning” airs this Sunday, May 11 from 9:00 to 10:30 AM ET on CBS and streams on Paramount+.
