"Manchild," the new single from Sabrina Carpenter's upcoming album "Man's Best Friend," debuted last month at #1. It's the latest milestone for the singer-songwriter, whose road to superstardom exploded, in part, because of COVID.

The Statue of Liberty, France's gift to the United States, was originally viewed as a tribute to the end of slavery. But poet Emma Lazarus reimagined Lady Liberty as a "mother of exiles," welcoming immigrants to the shores of America.

Kennedy's evocation of the United States as "a nation of immigrants" transformed our country, in this entry in the "Sunday Morning" series "These United States."

Search-and-rescue operations are expected to continue Sunday as the death toll continues to rise from Friday's flash flooding in central Texas, with authorities confirming at least 50 deaths so far, 15 of those children. Among the missing are girls from a Christian summer camp located on the banks of the Guadalupe River. Correspondent Jason Allen reports from Hunt, Texas, and talks with witnesses to the raging floodwaters.
The reopening of Ellis Island to the public during America's bicentennial year prompted CBS News' Charles Kuralt to offer his thoughts on the sight of Lady Liberty as viewed by generations of immigrants, and on the diversity of a nation that welcomed those from every land seeking a safe haven and opportunity. For these new Americans, Kuralt said, "They carried our greatness in their baggage." (Originally broadcast May 28, 1976.)
The Steven Spielberg film "Jaws" was doing gangbusters business in theaters once it opened in the summer of 1975, prompting fears of shark attacks among moviegoers – and terror among beach community tourist bureaus, which were convinced the blockbuster thriller was dissuading seasonal visitors from the shore, as reported by CBS News' Bernard Goldberg. (Originally broadcast Aug. 7, 1975.)
The scariest word at any beach has to be the warning: "SHARK!" Although attacks by the sea predator are rare, they nonetheless create fear among beachgoers.
