New 60 Minutes December 8 Episode Preview Reveals Big Crypto, Whistleblowers & More
Hey, “60 Minutes” fans. We’re back with another new preview session for you guys. In this one, we’re going to go over what you can expect to see the next, new episode 13 of this current season 57 offer up when it arrives on the air tonight, December 8, 2024.
The CBS people put out an official press release for this new episode 13. So, we will certainly reference it for this preview session. Let’s get into it.
In tonight’s new episode 13, the 60 Minutes team is going to present a special 90-minutes worth of segments instead of the usual 60 minutes. There will be a total of 4 segments in this one.
The first segment is titled, “BOEING’S WHISTLEBLOWERS.” CBS’ official description for it reads like this, “Less than a year after a panel blew off a 737-9 MAX airplane carrying 177 people thousands of feet above the ground, Boeing has faced four new federal investigations and appointed a new CEO to “restore trust.” Yet that has not slowed down the steady stream of Boeing whistleblowers coming forward with safety and quality concerns.
Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi meets with several of those whistleblowers in Washington, including one who is speaking out in his first television interview. Alfonsi hears about their serious concerns for commercial airplanes leaving their factories and why they weren’t surprised when that panel blew off the side of a Boeing airplane in the Oregon sky. Lucy Hatcher is the producer.”
The second segment is titled, “BIG CRYPTO.” CBS’ description for it reads like this, “Rarely in American politics has a new industry spent so much money, with such apparent impact, as the cryptocurrency business did in the last election.
With the price of Bitcoin reaching record highs after the election, Margaret Brennan examines how much money the crypto industry spent, how effective it was and what it hopes to get from the new “pro-crypto” Trump administration and Congress. Andy Court is the producer.”
The 3rd segment is titled, “A TUTOR FOR EVERY STUDENT.” CBS’ description for it reads like this, “Correspondent Anderson Cooper explores AI in the classroom and learns how the education nonprofit Khan Academy teamed up with the AI company OpenAI to enhance teacher efficiency and deepen student learning.
Cooper previews a new voice and vision technology from OpenAI, and test-drives a pioneering online tutor named “Khanmigo” from Khan Academy to experience firsthand how the two companies are hoping to help shape the future of education. Denise Schrier Cetta is the producer.”
The 4th segment for this new episode 13 is called, “THAI ELEPHANTS.” CBS’ description for it reads like this, “For centuries, the people of Thailand have held a deep reverence for their national animal – the Asian elephant. Today that reverence and co-existent relationship is being tested. Deforestation and overdevelopment are driving these 10-thousand-pound animals out of the wild and into farms and villages in search of food – creating a growing and sometimes dangerous human-elephant conflict.
Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi travels into the forests of Thailand to meet with villagers who are dealing with weekly elephant incursions and talks to American and Thai scientists who are developing novel solutions to combat the problem. This is a double length segment. Ashley Velie is the producer.”
Again, CBS’ press release confirmed that the next, new episode 13 of 60 Minutes’ current season 57 is indeed scheduled to hit your TV screens tonight, December 8, 2024 in the 6 pm central standard time slot. It will also be available for streaming on Paramount+. Again, this is a 90-minute event instead of the usual 60 minutes. So, expect it to wrap up at 7:30 pm central standard time.
Alright, guys. That is a wrap for this latest, “60 Minutes” TV show, preview report, but definitely stay tuned for more.
