Terror in Turkey

ISIS is emerging as the leading suspect in Saturday's twin bomb attacks in Turkey's capital of Ankara, reports CBS News correspondent Holly Williams. The government says the death toll has reached 97. Ahead of national elections next month, Turkey, a key U.S. ally in the region, is looking increasingly unstable.

Obama on "60 Minutes"

President Obama was having none of Steve Kroft's suggestion during a "60 Minutes" interview that Vladimir Putin was challenging the U.S. leadership role in the world.

Miscarriage of justice

Bill Whitaker reported on "60 Minutes" on the case of Glenn Ford, who spent almost 30 years on death row in Louisiana for a murder he didn't commit. The prosecutor admits his cowardice and indifference led to Ford's wrongful conviction.

Stepping up

Technology companies are rolling out campaigns enabling Americans to donate online to help Syrian refugees. Crowdfunding website Kickstarter alone raised more than $1 million in 24 hours.
