Back From Iran, Sawyer Is “So Happy”

By Brian 

Howard Kurtz sums up Diane Sawyer‘s trip to Tehran:

“Just as industry insiders are wondering whether she is ready to abandon the predawn grind, Sawyer embarks on a one-woman diplomatic mission that has the business buzzing.”

“I was trying to go to the places I think are one-dimensional to a lot of us, and trying to make them three-dimensional,” Sawyer says. “It’s something I love to do: not only get a sense of the politics but of the people. It felt a little bit like my own personal endurance course.”

And here’s her only (no-)comment about her future: “Honest to goodness, I’ve been working flat out. I am so happy, and that’s all I’ve been thinking about and doing right now.”
