Who wants to watch the evening network news broadcasts when you can get news far faster on the cable news channels and the public Internet?

[reagan_fanatic]

I think Her Perkyness is starting to droop a little.

[God luvs America]

wait...but Wally Cronkite thought it was a good idea!

[Loud Mime]

Boy, LA really doesn't like her.

Que?

[Miss Marple]

LOL! First will come the new hairdo. I expect lowlights, to tone down the blonde, and shorter, "serious" hair, a la Hillary.

Then the dropping the jacket, and then the new set. Also some new "features".

Then they will send her to special locations.

Heheheh.

I watched the perky one for my first and only time last week just to see her clothes, hair style and make up. She was worse than awful. She appeared to be in a coma, at least in her morning spot she had some enthusiasm and vitality. What a bore, but then I wouldn't have watched again no matter how good she was.

[deport]

If she keeps floundering then at some point CBS willl have to replace her. I'd just as soon she keep the job. So best wishes to her and may her 3rd place position continued to be secured.

[kellynla]

I don't know whose brilliant idea it was to pay this airhead 20Mil a year to read a teleprompter for twenty minutes a night, five nights a week but whoever it was SHOULD BE FIRED!

[ustanker]

Turn out the lights!

[Notwithstanding]

[carola]

Let's see if she starts showing a little cleavage. Not that that would help -- it is Katie Couric after all.

[HoosierHawk]

That's terrific!

[Prophet in the wilderness]

(I was hysterical listening to Mark Levin rip Weiner a new one last night. ) I didn't get a chance to listen to Mark Levin, but, you mean, that the Great one was ripping Savage a new one ?
I wonder if anyone has heard Savage rip in to the Great one ? I know I hear Savage rip into Hannity and Rush.

[McBuff]

Katies next gig!

[Bringbackthedraft]

Watched her for the 1st time yesterday. I thought she looked terrible. It was like watching a cardboard cutout.

[USS Alaska]

Who is Katey Couric?

Here is pretty, perky katie.

[Babu]

It's a match made in something that starts with H. SeeBS and Qati Khouric deserve each other.

[kidd]

LOL!!!

[billhilly]

"Who is Katey Couric?"

Hair America.
