Well, it looks as if she will be gone from distorting the news, (that is, if you watch CBS). She will host a talk show and still be on the air. Oh well.

...her historic anchor’s post at CBS News...

Yep, the worst ratings ever!

Just leave already, Katy.

After months of anonymously sourced reports that Katie Couric is planning to leave her historic anchor’s post at CBS News

Holy cow! Walter Cronkite's not the anchor there any more? Guess I've been out of the loop.

[fight_truth_decay]

Couric's contract was up, as we know, the first part of June. She was recently on the Letterman show and Dave was trying to edge her into saying something good about Obama and bad about the Republicans.

Couric did not bite and in fact pushed a Republican for a potential candidate which she had just profiled on her blog. Dave agreed he liked a Republican from Indiana; but then went back to defending Obama, as in hia not having time enough to get things "changed".

Dave then tried to bait Couric again and she stayed silent. Dave finally gave a small soap box speech himself, turned and looked down at Couric who laughed at him and acknowledged he was controlling the conversation- that it was his show.

Will look for the interview. I don't know if many know this but back during the epidemic flu, Couric& Friends had tried to get out actually numbers of infected people from the White House and could not get what was promised as transparency in our government. A few months went by and they got a response saying it was not important for them to have the numbers--this is when I noted a change in Couric.

Seeing her support a Republican on Letterman was a Time Zone experience. dododoo dodododoooo

Good riddance. Now if ABC will get rid of Diane Sawed-Off, maybe the news will at least be watchable again. DS always looks like her hemorrhoids are flaring up.

What’s CBS?

[truthguy]

I said when she was hired for the gig that she wouldn't last long because she isn't taken seriously by serious people. So the people who should be fired are those who hired her in the first place.

To be fair, Couric isn't the real problem at CBS News. She's the symptom of the problem. The suits at CBS think it's the person sitting in the anchor chair reading a teleprompter that makes the difference. These people see everything in terms of Edward R. Murrow. The Executive Staff at CBS News are dinosaurs.

CBS News has three problems:
1. Content
2. Content
3. Content

Let’s take bets on who CBS with bring in... My guess is it will be Bill Maher.

That’s the genius type of thinking they have over there at CBS. Whoever decided to go with Katie Couric should be fired if they have not left CBS already. They just wasted a lot of money.

The Rush and Katie show. Fair & Balanced!

So sad...this is what we'll be missing....barf alert....

Her role as anchor became quite literal in a sense.
