We were talking about what was going on around the world, especially in Pakistan in the wake of Daniel Pearl's murder, and how we tend to move on to the next story pretty quickly, losing track of what happens in these places after the media spotlight goes out. So tonight we're going to have reports from some of the fronts in this global conflict. > > ABC News correspondent Bill Blakemore will have a report from Afghanistan > on what has been happening there as they try to rebuild their country. > Their biggest fear? That the U.S. will move on and abandon them. > Correspondent Richard Gizbert will report from Pakistan on how the Pearl > case has affected that country. What happens to the suspects in that case > will have repercussions for that country's government. And perhaps most > importantly, Nightline correspondent John Donvan will report on what has > changed here at home. In the wake of the attacks, we were told that > everything would change, that new restrictions and security procedures > would go into place, and that our safety would improve.

It's shaping up as a busy day. > > Thursday, February 28, 2002 > > Leroy Sievers > Executive Producer > Nightline Offices > Washington, D.C. > > ----------- > If you have questions or comments regarding this message or a recent > "Nightline" broadcast, please do not hit reply; simply click on this link > to send your message directly to the "Nightline" staff: > http://abcnews.go.com/sections/nightline/Nightline/Nightline_email_form.html > > Or log on to the new "Nightline" Message Board: > http://boards.go.com/cgi/abcnews/request.dll?LIST&room=nightline > > Chat with "Nightline" guests and find articles, transcripts and video > excerpts on our Web site at: > http://abcnews.go.com/Sections/Nightline/ > > You can unsubscribe to the "Nightline" e-mail at: > http://login.mailpref.go.com/unsubscribe > > Ask your friends to sign up!
