ABC’s “This Week” had planned a show on Ronald Reagan, but the Sunday morning show has revised the schedule because of the crisis in Egypt.
Christiane Amanpour will report live from Cairo. She also will talk to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton; Sameh Shoukry, Egyptian ambassador to the United States; and Zbigniew Brzezinski, the national security adviser to President Carter.
The program airs at 11 a.m. on WFTV-Channel 9.
ABC’s senior White House correspondent Jake Tapper leads a panel discussion with Abderrahim Foukara, Al Jazeera Washington bureau chief; ABC News’ George Will; ABC News senior foreign correspondent Martha Raddatz; and ABC News contributor Sam Donaldson.
Over on CNN, Fareed Zakaria has lined up an interview with Mohamed ElBaradei, who is often mentioned as a possible successor to Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak. ElBaradei is a Nobel laureate and former director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
“Fareed Zakaria GPS” airs at 10 a.m. this morning and repeats at 1 p.m. today.
