Synopsis | The Real Kamala (2024)

No one would ever describe last Wednesday’s Presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris as edifying. It was big on bluster, but short on substance; an example of how hurling insults to malign opponents now seems to be the preferred way to influence voters. It’s a skill Donald Trump has certainly turned into an art form, but as the world witnessed, the Vice-President is also no mug at it. For many observers though, Kamala Harris still has a substantial problem to overcome if she’s to be elected President. She needs to do more to convince Americans who she really is. On 60 MINUTES, Amelia Adams travels across the United States meeting the people who know the real Kamala, including old school friends, work colleagues and even a former boyfriend.

Jun 20, 2022 | Views on YouTube: 1,815,742 | | French Women Don't Get Fat (2005) | How's this for a diet; fat? Okay. Red meat; not a problem. Cheese and cakes; you can eat them to your heart's content. And it gets even better. Fancy a glass or two of wine to wash it down? Go ahead, it's good for you. It's fun and it works - in fact, it's why French women don't get fat.

Of course, this dream diet has been around for centuries. It's known as the French Paradox and it defies all logic. How come they thrive on all that rich food and wine AND have lower rates of obesity and heart disease than we do. Well, being French, you can bet style has something to do with it.

The Mystery Surrounding the Suspicious Deaths of Russian Oligarchs | 60 Minutes Australia

Nov 26, 2023 | Russian oligarchs and prominent politicians are suddenly dying - falling out of windows, getting poisoned or being involved of a plane crash. Before their deaths, they happen to have spoken out against Russian leader Vladimir Putin. But their deaths have not been traced back to the regime.

Catching a Notorious Stalker Tormenting Women Online | 60 Minutes Australia

Jul 9, 2023 | It’s a crime so malicious it’s difficult to understand how anyone could even think of it. It began innocently when a Brisbane flight attendant, Jess, had a chance meeting on an aeroplane with the Australian actor Lincoln Lewis.

However, unknown to both of them at the time, this harmless encounter would set off a catastrophic chain of events. Somehow, someone with a particularly warped mind got wind of their friendship, and using social media, assumed Lincoln Lewis’ identity, then tricked the young woman into a dangerous long-distance relationship. For more than a decade Jess and other helpless victims lived in fear as they were constantly stalked and harassed.

But when detectives finally caught the culprit there was another startling twist. As Tara Brown reports, it’s little wonder police now describe this as Australia’s worst case of “cat fishing”..


WIKIPEDIA: Catfishing.

Is Vladimir Putin’s Power Coming to an End? | 60 Minutes Australia

Jul 2, 2023 | For 24 years there was no dispute about who was the boss in Russia. Vladimir Putin seemed to proudly wear the label of the world’s most feared strongman. But last weekend, all of sudden, his iron rule was challenged. Putin stumbled and for the first time appeared weak and vulnerable.

The man threatening to topple the Russian tyrant was Yevgeny Prigozhin, arguably an even nastier piece of work than Putin himself. As the head of the Wagner group, he controls the brutal mercenaries who have been fighting alongside Russian forces in the illegal war against Ukraine. Tom Steinfort reports that what worries the world now is figuring out what Prigozhin’s next move could be. And where.

Is There a Meaningful Solution to Stopping Scammers and Financial Fraud? | 60 Minutes Australia

Jul 2, 2023 | Falling victim to a scammer is an awful feeling. It’s not only the theft of money or personal information that stings, the thought of being tricked by lowlife crooks is enough to enrage anyone. Statistics show more than 95 per cent of Australians are exposed to telephone, text and internet scams each year. Even more alarming is the amount of money these thieves are stealing from us. Last year it exceeded three billion dollars.

Russia-Ukraine War: The Women Standing Up against Vladimir Putin | 60 Minutes Australia

Jun 25, 2023 | He has killed thousands of soldiers and civilians and flattened countless towns and villages, but 17 months on from his illegal invasion of the Ukraine, Vladimir Putin is still a long way from victory. It’s a major embarrassment for the Russian bully, who originally expected to win the war within days.

And now, along with the defiant Ukrainian forces, Putin is also facing other formidable foes. Tom Steinfort travels to north-eastern Europe to meet a group of fearless females, including the prime ministers of Finland and Estonia, who despite the dangers are bravely standing up to the dictator, determined to play their part in his defeat.

China’s Illegal Police Stations in 53 Countries around the World | 60 Minutes Australia

Jun 18, 2023 | It’s well known that China won’t stand for any criticism. There, opponents of the communist regime are simply not tolerated. But it seems Beijing now thinks it also has the right to ignore international borders and silence dissent anywhere it sees fit. Around the world it’s setting up illegal outposts called “Chinese Overseas Police Service Stations”, and as the name implies, the objective of these offices is clear. Our law enforcement agencies deny there are any of these stations in Australia, even though Chinese authorities openly publicise their existence.

But as Tara Brown reports in a special 60 MINUTES investigation, that’s not the end of the intimidation. China is also using disgraceful new tactics to target Australians who dare to speak out.

Inside Prince Harry’s Tumultuous Court Case and Meghan Markle Marriage Woes | 60 Minutes Australia

Jun 11, 2023 | Spare a thought for the spare. Prince Harry has endured a hell of a week explaining his hell of a life to a judge in a London court. He claims that for years the English tabloids harassed and hounded him into misery by hiring private eyes to constantly follow him, as well as hacking his phone to get the scoop on his secrets. Harry says he’s now had enough, and it must stop.

But as Sarah Abo reports, for a man who has recently released a money-making autobiography and given multiple television interviews spilling the dirt on his famous family’s squabbles, Harry’s demand to hold the newspapers to account could just as easily be seen as a case of breathtaking hypocrisy.

Update: Theranos Founder Elizabeth Holmes Sentenced to 11 Years in Jail | 60 Minutes Australia

Nov 20, 2022 | The Bloody Lie 2022 | For more than a decade Elizabeth Holmes spun a despicable bloody lie. She told the world she’d invented a medical miracle. It was a machine which, with a tiny drop of blood, could almost instantly diagnose myriad diseases. Holmes promised to revolutionise healthcare, and in doing so fooled many wealthy investors. It led to her becoming a darling of Silicon Valley and an inspirational billionaire. But when whistle-blowers started questioning her claims, Holmes’ fairytale, along with her company Theranos, was destroyed. Earlier this year, Elizabeth Holmes was found guilty of fraud. Now it’s judgement day as she discovers her punishment.

Mormons Accused of Ripping Off Taxpayers by Hundreds of Millions of Dollars | 60 Minutes Australia

Oct 30, 2022 | Once famous – or infamous – for its stance on polygamy, these days the Mormon Church is better known for its earnest young missionaries who doorknock our suburbs promising enlightenment. But on 60 MINUTES, enlightenment about a subject the Mormon Church wants to keep secret: serious accusations that Mormons in Australia have been able to draw on $400 million in tax deductions not lawfully available to followers of other religions. It’s alleged by church whistle-blowers that the Mormon books are being cooked in an elaborate tax dodge. As Tom Steinfort reports, this is money Australia could well use, but despite the federal government’s bluster about cracking down on waste and rorting, so far it has done nothing.

God’s work or downright dodgy? Sunday on #60Mins, why the Mormon Church is accused of ripping off Australian taxpayers to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Exclusive Interview with Ukraine's Heroic First Lady | 60 Minutes Australia

In what's likely an indication he knows he's losing, last Wednesday Russian dictator Vladimir Putin drastically upped his rhetoric in the war he started against Ukraine. He announced he was mobilising three hundred thousand reservists to join the fight and threatened he was prepared to use nuclear weapons. Putin's desperate actions have been condemned around the world. For Ukrainians, despite being battered by seven months of fighting, their resolve to boot the Russian forces out remains as strong as ever. It's largely thanks to inspirational leader, President Volodymr Zelensky, but now we want to introduce you to his inspiration - his wife, the equally heroic First Lady Olena Zelenska.
