BRIAN WILLIAMS, anchor (New Orleans): Now to some movement in the case of those three American hikers who have been in a Tehran prison for more than a year. We've covered it on this broadcast.

An Iranian diplomat earlier said it would be Sarah Shourd , who, with her two male traveling companions, was accused of spying when they were arrested near the Iranian border.
