 The Blotter
U.S. law enforcement sources tell ABC News the FBI is investigating new leads that involve a possible connection between people in the United States, in major east coast cities, and the London bomb plotters.

ABC News consultant Alexis Debat, a terrorism expert at the Nixon Center in Washington D.C., says, "[Rehman] is the interface between al Qaeda's leadership and thousands, if not tens of thousands, of Pakistani militants who are able to provide the muscle for al Qaeda's operations not only in Pakistan but around the world."

But like everything, morning news is cyclical, and NBC has been riding a high wave for a while.

Yet unlike NBC’s "Nightly News," which began occasionally losing to ABC’s "World News Tonight" in total viewers this May, the "Today Show" is hardly in danger of losing its top position anytime soon.

The news that Gibson is giving up his morning job to anchor ABC's "World News Tonight" -- leaving Sawyer to share the program with Robin Roberts, who was elevated to a third co-anchor spot a year ago -- instantly reverberated across town to NBC.
