CBS News announced a lineup of features for a broadcast of "Sunday Morning," including a report on the economic impact of online sports gambling. The program cited data indicating that in states where online wagering is legal, credit card delinquencies and bankruptcies have risen by 25%. The segment features an interview with a gambler who wagers his entire annual income and examines the business practices of platforms FanDuel and DraftKings, which are currently facing lawsuits regarding their design.
The broadcast also covers the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles, which opens Sept. 22. Founders George Lucas and Mellody Hobson discuss the institution's focus on storytelling through comics, fantasy art, and motion picture design. Additionally, the program includes an interview with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang regarding safety and regulations in artificial intelligence, and a segment with outgoing Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie Bunch, who recently announced his retirement at age 73.
In the arts and literature segments, the program features interviews with Hollywood executive Ari Emanuel and Charles Spencer, the brother of the late Princess Diana, both of whom have new books releasing on Sept. 22. The show also reports on a public art project by St. Ann’s Warehouse that brought 40 life-size buffalo puppets to Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn, and pays tribute to costume designer Bob Mackie, who died on Sept. 14, 2026, at the age of 87.
The legal challenges facing DraftKings and FanDuel could set precedents for how digital gaming interfaces are designed and how companies interact with customers. Furthermore, the retirement of Lonnie Bunch from the Smithsonian marks a leadership transition for the institution, following a period where Bunch reported facing pressure from the Trump administration regarding the patriotism of museum staff.
The broadcast also highlights the opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art on Sept. 22. This museum will house works from popular media like magazines and film design. Additionally, CBS News is launching a series of live events starting Sept. 28 at the 92nd Street Y in New York City, featuring Sylvester Stallone.
