The new “ 60 Minutes ” correspondent garnered many huzzahs for his interlocution of President Donald Trump on the show’s Sunday telecast, but viewership tied to the show fell notably from the previous week and from the year-earlier episode, both of which were boosted by NFL lead-ins. Even so, there is some cause for cheer.
