Kate Couric: I'd "Be Thrilled" to Interview Sarah Palin Again
US Weekly ^ | Wednesday June 24, 2009

Posted on 06/24/2009 7:17:46 PM PDT by curth

What would Kate Couric ask Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin if she could interview her again?

"I have no idea!" Couric told Usmagazine.com Tuesday at High Voltage's 60th birthday bash in NYC. "If I get the opportunity, I'd be thrilled to talk to her again."

Last September, the CBS Evening News anchor conducted an awkward interview with the former vice presidential candidate, pressing Palin to explain why Alaska's proximity to Russia gives her foreign policy experience. She also asked Palin what newspapers and magazines she reads regularly. ("Um, all of them, any of them," an uncomfortable Palin replied.)

Asked about her famous chat with Palin, Couric told Us Tuesday, "I feel like that interview speaks for itself."

Katie, your ratings are in the toilet just like you are. Get bent.

Yup! She would be thrilled to interview someone, anyone who could help her dismal ratings!

Of course she wants to interview Palin again. It would be the only way to boost her CBS ratings.

Of course she would, her ratings stink. Perhaps if she had given Palin a fair interview she would get another more easily.

NOT ONLY, NO, BUT "HELL NO!"

I really believe that Sarah has more on the ball than to fall into that trap.

IF she runs in 2012, then hopefully, she will know (from experience) who to give interviews to AND who DID EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO DESTROY HER THEN; CONTINUE TO TRY AND DESTROY HER, AND WILL NOT CEASE AND DESIST FOR ANY REASON, now, or in the future!!!!

Sorry Katie. Why don't you call David Letterman and the two of you can tell Palin “jokes.” The rest of us will be watching FOX news.

I just don’t want little Katie to think Sarah would be afraid to do an interview. Sarah wouldn’t.

Really wonder how long CBS is going to keep her on the air. Like Letterman, Katie is destroying the network. And I don’t care.

No it wouldn't.

By creative editing, lighting, placement, certain types of questions, ect... you can make ANYONE look like an idiot if that is your goal.

Palin would be wise to avoid any further contact with liberal reporters out to destroy her.

Uh huh, and what it is saying to most people I've talked to is: "Couric is not the least bit worth watching."

She be thrilled allright, because it would mean she would still have a job 2 yrs. from now.

I think Palin will pass on the small time players......besides, How would Couric even talk with her head up Obama’s Ass ? No one could hear her questions.

Is that photo-shopped like the last one where they shaved pounds off of her? And that is not a bikini, two-piece yes, bikini, no.

I wonder which idiot on McCain’s staff fed Palin to Couric?
It was as though McCain wanted her to look bad. Couric’s political tilt was no secret.

****I wonder which idiot on McCain’s staff fed Palin to Couric?****

The answer to your question is Nicole Wallace. She was McCain's spokesperson and she was a friend of Katie The Dunce. Many believe it was Nicole Wallace who was the source of the reports that Palin did not know that Africa was a continent or what countries were part of NAFTA.

I’d like to interview Katie, I have some questions for her..Such as, how much did Axelrod and Soros pay her beforehand to screw Sarah over..we already know she met with Obama people and they gave her questions to ask her. Katie Couric is a Dem operative, she is only after ratings, screw her. She is a nasty sack of poo

I remember the exact moment I stopped being a Katie Couric fan, and lost all respect for her as a person as well as a reporter. She was invited into the White House by Barbara Bush, and when President Bush suddenly and unexpectedly walked into a room where they were, she rushed up to him and begin asking him pointed, accusatory questions about something (I used to remember but now I forget exactly what they were). His reply back to her was in the vein of “maintaining respect in the White House”, and it was priceless. She was so incredible rude and out of line — I was shocked. I can’t seem to get that image out of my mind, whenever I hear about her. I used to admire her before then, despite disagreeing with her politics. She was arrogant and disrespectful toward the President of the United States, placing herself on the same ground as him, and it was so blatant, I never forgot it.
