From the Columbia Journalism Review article Glenn links to:
But while that full exchange is available online as part of the interview’s transcript, the broadcast version doesn’t quote a word of Holder’s answers on the topic, and Couric’s narration only glancingly refers to the general complication of trying “sensitive” cases in “open court.” Wednesday’s seven-minute Evening News segment made no mention of the administration’s filing or even of the phrase “state secrets.”
Another source mentions that this part of the interview didn't make it on the air. http://newsbusters.org/blogs/brent-baker/2009/04/09/couric-presses-holder-left-guns-probing-bush-crimes
I couldn't find others - it seems that all other reports of the interview came from the transcript. The source reports what parts of the interview were aired (it's accurate - the entire show can be viewed here: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4930423n)
What did make the cut was Mexico/guns/DEA, Guantamamo/torture, and Cheney's big mouth.
