Synopsis
Feeling of Feeling – 60 MINUTES explores advancements in artificial prosthetics technology that can now restore a sense of touch. Scott Pelley speaks with volunteers of experimental research who underwent surgery to advance this breakthrough technology. Silicon Valley Scandal – Ina and David Steiner, authors of a newsletter that reported on players in the e-commerce business – Craigslist, eBay, and Etsy – sit down for their first interview with 60 MINUTES. Sharyn Alfonsi speaks with the couple who were stalked and harassed with violent threats directed by eBay senior managers in an attempt to stop the Steiners' news reporting. Charles Barkley – As the NCAA Tournament continues, Jon Wertheim profiles NBA Hall of Famer and, perhaps more recognizably, colorful TV basketball commentator Charles Barkley. Wertheim interviews Barkley in his hometown of Leeds, Ala., and retraces his roots from a junior high gym to becoming a college basketball star, joining the NBA, and ultimately launching a successful broadcasting career.
