Ross Douthat’s ’60 Minutes’ Interview Gets Tackled By Football Comparisons
According to Variety on November 10, 2026, new '60 Minutes' correspondent Ross Douthat received praise for his interview with President Donald Trump on Sunday's broadcast. However, viewership fell notably compared to the previous week and the year-earlier episode. Variety notes that previous episodes were boosted by NFL lead-ins. Nevertheless, the ratings were the highest generated this season for an episode without a football telecast lead-in.
