will go into war zone
Turns out Couric would go to a war zone after all

Last week, I mentioned an Access Hollywood report where Katie Couric mentioned that she probably would not go into the Israeli war zone for CBS, citing her kids as the main reason. But, apparently, Access didn't quite get things right. As the NY Post's Page Six reports, the program's web site took Katie's quotes out of context, from a May interview about the Iraqi bombing incident that injured CBS' Kimberly Dozier and killed two of her colleagues. When speaking to critics at the TCA press tour, Katie addressed the question of being sent into a war zone by saying it would depend on the situation. "But clearly, if it's going to serve the story, advance the story, and be helpful to the story, I would like to be there."Access makes the correction and clarification at the top of the story on its web site.
