viewers and advertising dollars in the a.m. is now a three-way "war."

Gumbel, formerly of the "Today Show," makes his return
to morning television as host of the "Early Show." It's a
venue he says suits his personality.

Couric, who pairs with Matt Lauer on the "Today Show,"discusses
the popularity of morning news.

Diane
Sawyer and Charles Gibson, ABC's "Good Morning America"
team, talk about the formula for morning news.
