This is essentially a non event for about what, 95 to 98% of the U.S. public?

If Katie falls in the ratings and nobody is around, will it make a sound? LOL

Cronkite, now there's the kiss of death.

The funny thing is that neither of them has any sense at all of the irony this conveys to so many people......no doubt Walter still thinks he is revered as 'America's Anchorman'...ostensibly passing the torch and presumably the mantle of authority to Katie....this could easily be taken for self-parody if it weren't for the monstrous egos of both parties

Anyone less than Jesus, Hinself, wouldn't make any difference - Bubblehead, the blonde is going to remain Bubblehead the blonde regardless of who appears with her.

Tonight on his last show, old Bob had Katie on and I swear, the two of them almost sneered when they talked about the unfortunte problems that brought Bob to the anchor desk.

They'll have to cut out at least one take when he pronounces her last name 'Clinton'.

More evidence that only the good die young. And the wicked live forever.

The cool thing is this whole changing of the guard was caused by a few people around here. *snicker*

I predict that within 6 months she'll be such an embarrassment to the establishment due to her overinflated ego that they'll ditch her faster than an old bloody tampon.
