"CBS Evening News" anchor Katie Couric will contribute a feature to the network's four-hour Super Bowl pregame show on Feb. 4.The network announced Thursday that Couric will also anchor the evening news from Miami, the site of the NFL football championship game, on the Friday before the Super Bowl. Super Bowl XLI will be broadcast on KMTV (Cox Channel 5) in Omaha and KOLN (Time Warner Channel 11) in Lincoln.
CBS will also send Randy Cross to Iraq to watch the game with American troops and deliver reports, the network said.
Jim Nantz will handle play-by-play and Phil Simms will provide color for the game. This will be the network's first Super Bowl since Janet Jackson's infamous wardrobe malfunction. Prince will be the halftime entertainment.
KMTV is scheduled to broadcast the winning entry in Z-92's "It's My Z" contest sometime on Super Bowl Sunday. KEZO (92.3 FM) listeners have been invited to submit a 30-second commercial for the classic rock station. At least one entrant has already posted his commercial on YouTube.

That will certainly make the CBS Evening News that much more credible to the general public.
It just wouldn't be Super Bowl Sunday unless Katie Couric is involved. Shameless, CBS
