Associated Press The Spokesman-Review

Katie Couric will make her prime-time CBS News debut on Sept. 6 with a one-hour special tied to the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

“Five Years Later – How Safe Are We?” will explore what the government is doing to prevent future attacks and how anxiety affects Americans. It will air at 10 p.m.

Couric, who makes her debut as “CBS Evening News” anchor on Sept. 5, will anchor the evening news on Sept. 11 from ground zero.

ABC News said Charles Gibson will anchor a prime-time report on the anniversary on Sept. 11. NBC News has not announced its commemoration plans.
