If they want to rebuild integrity, they need John Stossel...IMHO.
I don't know how valid this list is, but it is pretty entertaining. It would be beyond riotous if they were to hire Couric. It would take her about six months before they started pining for the good old days of Rather's ratings.
CBS appears to be exercising their right to commit commercial suicide....
CBS is racing toward their grave....
RIP
Semper Fi
I might consider watching if Anderson Cooper were selected.
I agree. I fail to see how they would think that Couric couls revive their ratings. Conservatives despise her as much as Rather.

Excellent choice. "Man's mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimension." - Oliver Wendell Holmes

Oh, no. I don't want to give up your TS reports. LOL. What lunatic is running the show over there at CBS?
"Anderson Cooper The rising CNN star (who also works for 60 Minutes Wednesday) could be in the running, especially if the long-rumored CNN-CBS merger moves ahead."
Rising star.... That's funny.
Stossel would be an excellent choice.
"John Roberts CBSs chief White House correspondent was the early favorite and is still in the mix. But CBS insiders say the longer the search drags on, the less likely he will get the job"
Especially after his fingerprints were found in the Rathergate Memo Disaster...bye bye Roberts.
Anderson Cooper, no...will all the baggage about his personal preferences....he is out.
Katie Couric, she would be left in the dust in less than one week. They would do better with wacko Olberman. Maybe they should hire Chrissy Matthews, he is in line with their leftwing agenda.
To correct the quote: "... original dimensions." (plural)
To even consider Courik says much about CBS's grasp of the real world. The pendulum. The pendulum. Watch the pendulum, CBS. Ask not for whom the pendulum swings, CBS. It swings for you.
I'm with you. I'd actually consider watching if John Stossel was anchor, at least I feel like he tries to be a real journalist...but Couric? NOT ON YOUR LIFE!!! However, her removal from morning television would be welcomed. (Nothing like starting the day by accidentally stopping on NBC and being moved to nausea by little Katie's blatant agenda.)
I thought they said they were going to be "fair and balanced."
Katie Couric anchoring the SeeBS evening news and Howard Dean as the DNC chair. That's my idea of a dream team.
Just keep digging the hole deeper libs. Pretty soon you'll be in China, as if you're not there already! Ho ho ho Chi Minh!
Only because Ethel Rosenberg is dead.
