Katie Couric may never win the ratings, but who cares? She just took home a coveted Cronkite Award (which we assume is called a Wally by TV insiders).
Courics Wally was presented for her revealing, multi-part interview of Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
The Wallies are awarded twice each year by the USC Annenberg School for Communication. They are named in honor of Walter Cronkite, once known as the most trusted man in America.....

“Walter Cronkite Award”? Also known as “Benedict Arnold, Tokyo Rose, Lord Haw-Haw Award”?
WTF?
That would be like Kennedy Center Honors Ted Kennedy.
Oh, wait a minute ...
Isn’t that the “award winning” interview where she deliberately set herself closer to the camera to make Sarah look small, and then she refused to call Sarah by the name Governor? And then she attacked her for things that were said by the SNL comedienne instead of by Sarah? Is that the one??????? What a trash bag . . . and for that she gets awarded???????
Please include “Vagisil Alert!” anytime Couric is mentioned.
Wow, they really cheapened the ‘Wally’ award there when they gave it to Katie
Liberals honoring liberals for being liberals. Yawn.
A “WALLY” for what? she sure disappeared off the screen with her opinions after the election didn’t she? ( I stand corrected)
“Little Miss Non-Controversial So She Wouldn’t Lose A Trophy”?
wow!
that must be as good as a pulitzer prize,
or nobel prize, pew poll,
...
say, all of these prizes and polls are liberal frauds.
Unfortunately, so much of the footage was found to contain images such as the still seen here that it was rendered unusable and the project had to be s**tcanned.
Katie told interviewers later that this is how she spends much of her free time as this is where she gets some of her best program ideas. She cited her interview with Hillary Clinton as a prime example.
And whenever I stumble across this bubble-head while surfing, these lyrics start running through my head:
I make my living off the evening news Just give me something-something I can use People love it when you lose, They love dirty laundry
Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear Come and whisper in my ear Give us dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up Kick em when theyre down Kick em when theyre up Kick em when theyre down Kick em when theyre up Kick em when theyre down Kick em when theyre up Kick em all around
We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who Comes on at five She can tell you bout the plane crash with a gleam In her eye Its interesting when people die- Give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet? You know, the boys in the newsroom got a Running bet Get the widow on the set! We need dirty laundry
You dont really need to find out whats going on You dont really want to know just how far its gone Just leave well enough alone Eat your dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up Kick em when theyre down Kick em when theyre up Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up Kick em when theyre down Kick em when theyre stiff Kick em all around
Dirty little secrets Dirty little lies We got our dirty little fingers in everybodys pie We love to cut you down to size We love dirty laundry
We can do the innuendo We can dance and sing When its said and done we havent told you a thing We all know that crap is king Give us dirty laundry!
Dirty Laundry by Don Henley
her work gives me the wallys too....or is that willies??
They both fit the same mold....Traitors
Along with his knighthood, maybe we should award Sir Splash-a-lot of Camelot a swimming merit badge for his valiant derring-do on the island of Chappaquiddick.
