60 Minutes

60 Minutes is one, if not the, classic show that tries to convey topics and contexts to viewers with investigative journalism and a longer airtime. One of the few programs still running that really journalistically deals with the world and what is happening in and on it, but does not always hit the nail on the head and has unfortunately become more and more sensational. Nevertheless, a show that is still worth paying attention to.

I began watching 60 Minutes around 1979. I was in high school and I have never stopped. As someone mentioned before me, it is definitely formula, but the formula definitely works. 20/20 and the multitude of other news shows that have attempted to imitate it have never come close. Watch this show and you will definitely learn something!

60 minutes is pretty good serial i guess.i liked it a lot i have watched it about 4 years,but they make it since 1968 and now is year 2005 it isn't finished.it's magnificent.now i know thanks to 60 minutes that Mary J.Blige can't write and she make mistakes when she read,but she is pretty good in Hip-Hop world.she is one of the most popular female rappers.Rooney has spoken interesting story's in 60 minutes i guess.60 minutes has been pretty popular in Estonia years ago.60 minutes has about 1 000 000 videos.almost 40 years.what a good serial.i recommend it to everyone.almost all topics are interesting.some guys has been dead for now,because it's pretty old stuff.

"60 Minutes" is definitely the originator of all the great television news magazines. Every Sunday night for several years I have either watched the show or listened to it on the local CBS radio affiliate here in Los Angeles. To me "60 Minutes" works in two different ways. The first is as an investigative program that looks hard at very controversial issues that the public should be made aware of. The show also is great at doing wonderful celebrity profiles. It really allows the general public to look at the lives of various celebrities and show what they are like once the spotlight is off. Of course, the show has its detractors who say that it has become very self important, but this will always be to me one of the most influential shows in the history of television.

This is the news show to which other news shows aspire, and none has ever even come close. This show has been on for 35 years because people trust it. They know that what they see and hear will be the unvarnished, unbiased truth; while a fatuous blowhard like Bill O'Reilly can call his show "The No-Spin Zone" when it is actually nothing BUT spin, viewers know that "60 Minutes" doesn't "spin" anything; it's not afraid to take on powerful people, institutions and corporations, and in fact has even raked its own network over the coals on more than one occasion. The show has a reputation for integrity that is unparalleled in the history of TV, and the fact that it has often elicited howls of protest from both the right and the left because of its coverage or investigations of issues or people "sacred" to those particular political philosophies is testimony to its effectiveness. This show is as good as it's possible to get.
