Former “CBS Evening News” anchor Katie Couric will return to ABC, where she worked early in her career, to host a syndicated daytime talk show beginning in September 2012, according to news service
Reuters.
Couric said it was “tremendously exciting to have the creative freedom to develop my own show with Anne Sweeney, the Disney/ABC TV Group and Jeff (Zucker, producer), and to contribute to such a vibrant, innovative news division.” Zucker, the story notes, wa Couric’s boss when she anchored NBC’s morning show “Today.”
The new daytime series will be based in New York.
