I looked until I found the picture. I tuned into today the day after the election just to see katie. I couldn't believe the Wednesday adams dress. It was funereal.

I can't stand Katie. Any bets on how long she lasts....

I give it 2 months...

"Actually, FR should have a photo gallery of election night and day after photos"

My favorite has to be on election night when Teddy Kennedy was live on the air here in Boston with Kerry, and he announced that "homeboy John Kerry" was the new president. Then Teddy had to eat his words!

Perky Katie Airhead as "managing editor"? Either the president of CBS News forgot his meds the day he hired her, or I did while reading this story!

If you consider jumping from a lifeboat onto the Titanic (after it struck the iceberg) a "qualification" - that is what the drift seems to be on the switch.

I watched a bit of the segment on Jim Lehrer's program this evening discussing this story, and they all seemed to think it was a wonderful choice. (The blonde from American University who is a regular on Fox News Watch was one of the discussants.)

I never watch the Today Show, so all I know about Couric is what I've read here. After their problems with Rather, CBS should have gone with someone with a less obvious leftwing bias...maybe Cindy Sheehan or Nancy Pelosi.

"Couric didn’t exactly set the world on fire after she graduated in 1979 from the University of Virginia with a degree in American Studies. She became a desk assistant at ABC in Washington and "basically made coffee, answered phones and got [then network anchorman] Frank Reynolds ham sandwiches..."

Thank God! Someone else gets to be the butt of 'ham sandwich' jokes...

Maybe putting America's perkiest socialist into the anchor chair will finally guide Americans to the understanding that First Amendment protections should not apply to the hateful and subversive crap that CBS spews across the continent every day.

Few sights would give me greater pleasure than to see Katie & Co. frogmarched out of CBS at the business end of a bayonet under Executive Order.

Couric is the newsroom equivalent of Harriet Miers.
