Woodruff speaks on ‘Nightline’
ABC’s Bob Woodruff contributed to a “Nightline” report on North Korea on Wednesday, his first journalistic work since being seriously hurt by a roadside bomb in Iraq on Jan. 29.
By telephone, Woodruff recorded a few lines to accompany the “Nightline” rebroadcast of a report he did about his visit to North Korea last summer. His voice-over tied the discussion of North Korea’s closed society to its recent test firing of missiles.
Woodruff recorded the new lines while vacationing with his family in upstate New York, ABC said. He was not seen on camera.
ABC has not said when Woodruff would be able to return to full-time work at the network. He was co-anchor of “World News Tonight” for less than a month before the bombing.
