[via press release from CBS] |
THE "CBS EVENING NEWS WITH KATIE COURIC" WILL INCLUDE AN ORIGINAL SEGMENT OF OPINION AND COMMENTARY
When the CBS EVENING NEWS WITH KATIE COURIC debuts on Tuesday, Sept. 5 (6:30-7:00 PM, ET), the broadcast will include a new regular feature called "Free Speech," a segment of opinion and commentary from a wide range of Americans. This original segment is intended to create a candid and robust dialogue among viewers about issues important to them, their families and the nation.
"'Free Speech' will be unlike anything that currently exists on a network evening news broadcast," said Rome Hartman, Executive Producer, CBS EVENING NEWS. "We are not looking to pit one side against another or to broadcast shouting matches -- there's already more than enough of that on television. And it won't be a collection of the �usual suspects' or �talking heads;' in fact, we intend it to be just the opposite of that."
"Free Speech" will feature a wide and diverse group of voices commenting on an array of subjects. One night, the segment may feature a well known national figure speaking out on a current issue in the news, while the next night, someone may offer a humorous take on a trend in the culture, or it might be Bob Schieffer's unique take on Washington or the world.
The segment will be a real attempt to reflect what Americans are thinking and feeling, as people from all parts of the country representing all perspectives and points of view will be able to speak their minds -- uninterrupted. "This isn't our opinion," says Hartman. "Our goal is to offer a new and transparent outlet for the incredible variety and diversity of voices in this country, and we believe that doing so will help make our viewers -- and us -- better informed."
