"CBS Evening News" anchor Katie Couric at the White House Correspondents' Association's annual dinner on Saturday, April 22, 2007. Her guest for the evening was N.C. Attorney General Roy Cooper.
A week before the dinner, Cooper gave an exclusive interview to "60 Minutes" on the Duke lacrosse case, but a representative said the tickets were not given as a return favor.
"This was just a spontaneous invitation," said spokeswoman Noelle Talley.
