"Katie Couric will leave ABC next year, it has been confirmed. The award-winning broadcaster will join Yahoo! News in early 2014 as the organisation&amp;#039;s global anchor.  &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve always respected Katie for her thoughtful, charismatic approach to journalism,&amp;quot; said Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer in a blog post on Monday (November 25). &amp;quot;From pivotal coverage of natural disasters and historic elections to the Royal Wedding and the Olympic Games, groundbreaking interviews with heads of state and leading tastemakers, her experience is unmatched.  &amp;quot;Katie is dynamic, savvy and has a way of connecting with viewers that I really admire.&amp;quot; Couric will continue to host her syndicated daytime talkshow Katie, which launched in 2012. She will lead a team of correspondents including Megan Liberman, David Pogue and Matt Bai in her new role. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
