I am only recently getting hip to how these day time talk shows work. CBS
produced Oprah, but it appeared mostly on ABC stations. Katie has signed to
do a talk show that will appear mostly on ABC stations. Will the Probst show
also appear on ABC stations, in more of a support role to Katie, or will it
appear on competing stations in direct conflict?
