NEW YORK — Television news' royalty will fly in to meet Barack Obama during this week's overseas trip: CBS chief anchor Katie Couric in Jordan on Tuesday, ABC's Charles Gibson in Israel on Wednesday and NBC's Brian Williams in Germany on Thursday.
The anchor blessing defines the trip as a Major Event and _ much like a "Saturday Night Live" skit in February that depicted a press corps fawning over Obama _ raises anew the issue of fairness in campaign coverage.
