CBS Evening News Anchor Katie Couric to Launch
"Conquering Colon Cancer" Segments
March 14-16 on CBS
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, but it doesn't have to be - it can be cured more than 90% of the time when detected early, and is often entirely preventable with appropriate screening.
March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, and both the CBS Evening News and the The Early Show will air special reports on colon cancer this week.
On Wednesday, March 14, Ms. Couric will appear on The Early Show (7-9 AM ET/PT) to preview the reports that the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric (6:30 PM ET) will air on Wednesday and Thursday evenings (March 14-15). Additionally, The Early Show will broadcast other segments on Thursday and Friday, March 15-16.
You can also see the reports any time by visiting the CBS Evening News homepage.
