But isn't it just funny, sick, and oh-so "Katie Couric" for Katie to be polishing her "fair and balanced" credentials by attacking a dead black guy?

In this instance, she has no shame. And was he really controversal? I loved his movies, and liked some of his comedy although the language was a bit much. I never thought of Richard Pryor as a controversal figure.

Katie's comment about his legacy being in doubt was just mean. I see no reason why his legacy would be in doubt.

Here's a prediction: By next week, the story will be that conservatives are attacking Pryor and trying to tarnish his legacy, and that Hollywood is coming to his defense. By the next awards show they will give him a special award, and by next year any liberal column about mean-spiritedness of conservatives will include a reference to attacking a dead black comic like Pryor and trying to tarnish his legacy.

Later, in an interview of far-left lawyer Ramsey Clark, who is currently defending Saddam Hussein, she described Clark as a man "with such a distinguished record,' then caught herself and added "though controversial."

Snort.

Cavuto, do you actually watch Ms. Couric in the morning?

[Mo1]

Ramsey Clark has a a distinguished record ???

Hey Katie .. you mean how Clark who is defending a brutal dictator was once the US Attorney General in the Johnson Administration??

[subterfuge]

The interview with Ramsey Clark was a major barf-fest. Poor, poor Sadaam was forbidden from bringing his Koran to the trial with him, boo-hoo. And "they took away his notepad", sniffed Clark.

I'm glad for your reports on Today, because after today I'll have to rely solely on them because I'll not be tuning in any longer.

I could barely watch any of the Ramsey Clark interview. I feel as if this world has been turned totally upsidedown. For Ramsey Clark to get ANY prominent air time, much less a primetime morning interview, to advocate Saddam's mistreatment and defend him at all is beyond shameful. And Katie made sure she gave him the velvet glove treatment, when using the word "controversial". < / barf>

We already know Ramsey Clark is a dictator loving traitor to his country. And now we absolutely know that NBC's Today is a proud mouthpiece for dictator loving traitors. That's it, I'm done with them. Besides, I'm sick of starting out my day yelling at my t.v. while my blood pressure reaches stroke level. It's downright unhealthy to watch Today.

Oh I dont know...Katie is just so...Oh, yes...PERKY blah blah blah. I stopped watching her yrs ago. CBS won't change my mind.

I can hear it now....."Why didn't Bush leave our troops in Iraq when they could have done something about this Iranian situation before it became a reality!!!"

"You know Tim, it seems that Bush has committed another grievous error by not finishing the training and arming of the Iraqi troops so that they could have been a help to us in Iran!!"

"Katie, it seems to me that these massive deaths perpetrated by the Iranians could have been prevented by the presence of a large American strike force in Iraq....it's just inconceivable that the Bush Adminsitration couldn't have seen this coming. No one said he should have withdrawn from Iraq so completely, and so soon".
