  60 Minutes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The initial run of 60 Minutes was as a bi-weekly show hosted by Harry Reasoner and Mike Wallace which debuted on CBS on September 24, 1968.
In tone, 60 Minutes blends the probing journalism of the seminal 1950s CBS series See It Now with Edward R. Murrow (a show for which Hewitt was the director its first few years) and the personality profiles of another Murrow program, Person to Person.
The New York Times wrote that 60 Minutes and CBS had "betrayed the legacy of Edward R. Murrow." The incident was turned into a seven-times Oscar-nominated feature film entitled The Insider, directed by Michael Mann and starring Russell Crowe and Al Pacino.

60 Minutes II received a set of documents which alleged that, while in the service of the Texas Air National Guard, President George W. Bush was declared unfit for duty, and suspended from service.
Ratings for both 60 Minutes II and CBS Evening News anchored by Dan Rather plummeted amidst the public perception that CBS was being overly stubborn and defensive about their use of documents which were widely felt to be fraudulent.
Then-retired 60 Minutes and 60 Minutes II creator and executive producer Don Hewitt publicly stated that it was wrong for 60 Minutes II to air the segment and it would not have aired if he had been still in control of the newsmagazine program.

 U.S.-Australian Social Security Agreement
(Australia's Social Security program, which is separate from the SG program, is supported by general tax revenues not covered by the agreement.) Australian Social Security benefits covered by the agreement include the Social Security age pension, disability support pension for the severely disabled, pensions payable to widowed persons and carer payment.
Certificates of coverage issued by Australia should be retained by the employer in the United States in case of an audit by the IRS.
If you are outside Australia and your Australian benefit becomes payable as a result of the agreement, your benefit may be reduced (i.e., paid at a proportional rate) if you have less than 25 years of Australian working life residence.

 The CIA in Australia
Allegations and information are available in Australia and overseas, and have been for a long time, but we are all faced by the iron curtain of American intelligence and Australian secrecy, the unavailability of such information to the public.
And it was following the interview with Australia’s 60 Minutes that he was put into a locked room with half a dozen members of the Aryan Brotherhood who were a neo-nazi group within the prison and they established beatings and have actually got a contract on his life.
What you in Australia must understand is that you are more to blame than the CIA is because you want this to happen, you want a certain administration in control and you don’t want another administration in control.

 60 Minutes says it has cover up evidence - theage.com.au
Dr Pell, now Catholic Archbishop of Sydney, yesterday called a press conference to deny allegations to be aired on Channel Nine's 60 Minutes program on Sunday.

Mr Carleton today denied Dr Pell had been ambushed by 60 Minutes, saying he had been asked to comment on "sex abuse against children in the Catholic Church in Australia, past present and future".
