Steve Kroft Spills Dirt On 30-Year CBS Gig: 'I Hated It'

I can remember when I was tapped to go to 60 minutes I thought this was fantastic and I expected a lot of people would just come up and say, that's really great, I'm really happy for you, whatever the thing right is and then you realize after a while that not everybody was happy that I got this job.

Newsroom nerds shared code on GitHub, swapped tips on social media and unfurled long blogs guiding others on how to get things done. You might also have a vague sense that - like reaction GIFs, demotivational posters, and that guy who sang "Chocolate Rain" - you're seeing less of it these days.
