60 Minutes Reports on “28 Days”, “Policing the Internet” & “Timothée Chalamet” February 16 2025
This Sunday, February 16, 2025, “60 Minutes” on CBS, airing from 7:00-8:00 PM ET/PT, brings viewers a mix of investigative journalism and intimate profiles. This week’s lineup features critical examinations of political decisions, international internet policies, and a unique look at a young actor’s transformative journey in a high-profile biopic.
28 Days
Scott Pelley delves into a contentious issue from Washington, D.C.—the legality of President Trump’s decision to dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) without congressional approval. This segment questions the boundaries of presidential power and its implications on global aid and administrative efficiency. Pelley consults with a constitutional law professor and a former USAID administrator from President George W. Bush’s era, exploring the potential legal battles and the future of the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Produced by Maria Gavrilovic and Alex Ortiz, this report aims to shed light on the complexities of governance and legal oversight in today’s political climate.
Policing the Internet
Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi takes viewers abroad to Germany to explore how the country is managing the chaos of the World Wide Web. With most online communication in the United States shielded by the First Amendment, Germany’s stringent internet regulations present a stark contrast in how societies balance free speech with the need to curb hate speech and misinformation. This investigation, produced by Michael Karzis, offers a thought-provoking look at the global challenges of regulating online spaces without infringing on personal freedoms.
Timothée Chalamet
In a lighter but equally compelling segment, Anderson Cooper spends time with actor Timothée Chalamet, who has stirred the film industry with his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the biopic “A Complete Unknown.” Despite initial hesitations due to his lack of musical background, Chalamet’s dedication over five years has culminated in an Oscar-nominated performance. Cooper visits Chalamet’s childhood home and Dylan’s old haunts in New York City, drawing parallels between the actor and the music legend he portrays. Nichole Marks produces this intimate exploration of Chalamet’s artistic journey and the personal growth required for such a legendary role.
Tune in for a rich blend of political intrigue, cultural examination, and celebrity insight this Sunday on “60 Minutes.”
