Reliable Sources is an American news media analysis talk program on CNN.
Hosted by Howard Kurtz, the program reviews the coverage of the news stories of the past week by the media, in addition to news about the news media behind the scenes, all with a constantly changing group of online, print, and broadcast journalists. The show also features some one-on-one interviews with journalists taking part in a news event or covering a story, such as interviewing Bob Woodruff after his return to ABC News in February 2007 after his severe injuries in Iraq on January 29, 2006.
