Dear XYNurse, CNC-0413, parkbena, and everyone else who's upset about the full-screen function: I felt your pain and I have the answer. CBSNews full-screen won't work with Flash 10, but it does work with Flash 9. The problem is that Adobe makes it pretty hard for you to install anything but the latest Flash player. Here's the answer. Uninstall Adobe Flash via Windows Add/Remove Programs. Then download and install Flash 9 from Adobe's older versions archive at: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html

You're welcome. (Now that you guys at CBS finally have the answer everyone is looking for, how about posting it on your home page?)

RE: Full screen option

I gave up on cbsnews.com, instead I go to hulu.com, there they have a full screen option for all of the 60 minutes episodes... Cheers

Pelley is saying If in America, operator is responsible. Ecuador is not America. If a laywer come and say They are going to have lots of money, they want to sue. The lawyer will get rich and claim he is the protector and savior. America runs the nation with tax which a company like Chevron pays. Does 60Minutes want to destroy huge tax payer? Developments come with some pollution. Take it or leave it!

I think full screen option is only for American viewers, if not CBS must replace website manager, and a couple of its reporters who are stupid. Mr. Pelley and the plaintiff lawyer should go to China if he wants more oil smell. But I doubt they are going to win any case because Pelley insists only operator or builder are responsible not those who involved oil business, PetroEcuador or Consotium. If Pelley is right, Bin Laden is innocent because he is not operator of terror attack. He is just instigator and planner.

Fix the full screen please! I love 60 minutes news stories, but I'm in college working part time on Sunday nights, so I never get to watch it.

Thanks if you fix this.

dear scott pelley: this is the texaco m.o. precisely. they have thousands of leaking underground storage tanks in illinois alone. my case #92 L 831 in champaign county. i spent a few million, won the "clean it up immediately," from the court and they cleaned nothing. go to www.cccircuitclerk.com and look up the case. they pulled all of the same tricks----move the case to rye, ny; move the case to federal court, move the case to state court, move the case back to illinois, hire more witnesses for evaluations, hire and change lawyers---from denver, chicago, dallas. change judges or just buy them off. i have seen some 30 lawyers and 14 judges in this case alone. they are oil dog bastards from hell and your show made me sick to my stomach. now they own the polluted land and i have nothing left but the memories. the guys from ecquador contacted me in 1995. they are all dead now. their fishing ponds were turned into oil pits. pictures tell a thousand words? not with this mob of liars. it was not their fault---the other oil dog did it----change the venue, this is not fair----get a new judge---move to another county, state, country. you are late to the event and you will lose too. castelo. champaign, illinois.

Please fix the way this website checks for Adobe Flash Player. It no longer works in full screen with the latest Adobe Flash Player. It has been this way for awhile.

Chasedye, it's your computer, not CBS. Reinstall Windoze or Java, that may fix it.
On another note, is Morley Safer semi retired? He hardly reports anymore. He is the last of the 60 Minutes old timers, and arguably the best of the current reporters.
Scott Pelley seems to have too many segments, and he finishes his interviewee's responses on a regular basis.
