NEW YORK, Nov. 5 (UPI) -- ABC says it will air TV journalist Barbara Walters' interview of 2008 U.S. vice presidential candidate and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin in multiple segments.

The first segment will be shown on "Good Morning America" Nov. 17, the morning the Republican politician's memoir, "Going Rogue: An American Life," is released. Portions of the chat are also to air on "Nightline" Nov. 17, again on "Good Morning America" Nov. 18 and on "20/20" Nov. 20.

This is to be Walters' first interview with Palin.
