“For the most part the broadcast networks were on standby” this afternoon, the Associated Press reports. “NBC’s Brian Williams stayed in the network studio for most
of the day, ready to go on the air at a moment’s notice with a special report. NBC’s Matt Lauer made it to Rome to anchor the “Today” show on Friday morning. Other network correspondents were either there or en route: ABC’s George Stephanopoulos and CBS’ John Roberts.”
