And SHE was going to teach US how to look at nightly news. That liberal stupidity of hers.....sitting on the news desk while reading the teleprompter....and those inane "opinion" segments they were forced to ditch f-a-s-t.

Finally, someone at CBS told Couric, " I think viewers just want you to relay the news of the day."

Duh.

[Cheryllynn]

She’s still around?????

Finally, someone at CBS told Couric, " I think viewers just want you to relay the news of the day."

Couric herself has bemoaned the format of the nightly news. What the heck did she expect? To be able to do her perky show on the news?

I wonder why no one at CBS and no one here on FR was able to see at the outset that Katie would be a huge failure at this. Oh, that’s right, EVERYONE here at FR knew that this was going to be a monumental failure. It would be fund to dig up the links to some of those old Katie threads and email them to CBS.

[Anti-Bubba182]

"One wonders why, in its giddiness to lure in Katie as its news babe, the network threw away all common sense."

Les Moonves has faith in Bondo ^TM

[Bobalu]

I can picture a certain type of woman that I would be pleased to watch deliver the news. Katie is not of that type.

[johnny7]

cBS really wanted Lucy Ramirez...

[iopscusa]

Oh no, please leave po’ little Katie alone...CBC, NBC, ABC where overpaid Affirmative Action, Progressive, braindead reportees go to die!
SWEET!

COURIC’S FALL HURT US ALL (overpaid fluff ball with no testosterone gravitas)....

“We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who comes on at five
She can tell you ‘bout the plane crash with a gleam in her eye
It’s interesting when people die- Give us dirty laundry”

yup....this lib/dem dope’s fall....is going to hurt us all..

[JoeGar]

Now, putting another female into Katie's position will look like a stunt.

Not if they could lure Elizabeth Vargas away from ABC. IMHO, Elizabeth does a great job.

[prisoner6]

Well...maybe she can find a job at NakedNews.com.

WAIT! What the heck am I thinking?!

Actually when NN first started I didn't think it was too bad. It was a gimmick, but the very first newscasts were pretty much just news, sports and weather and fairly balanced. Then the downward spiral began. Haven't watched for a LONG time.

Katie Is Packing To Leave CBS

[668 - Neighbor of the Beast]

Couric is 51, well past her freshness date. She got the job being perky. She isn’t now. It’s that simple.

[Eddie01]

COURIC'S FALL HELPED HURT US ALL<4>

fixed it.

[deuteronlmy232]

...overpaid fluff ball with no testosterone ...

Members of the Congress and Administration have joined with the leftist media to cry about perky?

[DieHard the Hunter]

LEAVE KATIE ALONE!!! (sob!)
LEAVE HER ALONE!!!

She’s had a child, she’s gone thru a Divorce!

Since when is it “Professionalism” to dump on someone who’s gone thru a hard time???

From now on, if you people have a problem with Katie, you deal with ME!!! (sob!)
(sob!)

LEAVE KATIE ALONE!
(leave her alone! pleeeease!) (sob!)

[mewzilla]

IBD's Michael Ramirez put it best.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

To pay Katie her king's ransom, CBS reportedly cut the salaries of network stalwarts such as Lesley Stahl, a female veteran with far better news chops.

Ouch! I never heard that before. No wonder Perky Katie has no friends in the CBS newsroom.

[rod1]

Having an avowed liberal fail at spinning the news does not hurt us all. The fact that she is an avowed female news spinner is rather secondary. It is the pattern of having spin-the-news anchors fail that is refreshing for many.

The remarkable accomplishment of CBS this past decade is to equal or even surpass CNN as the most prominent fake news source. So it is appropriate they might merge. Then they can both fake the news more efficiently.

Sorry for Katie that it is not all about her. But perhaps that is reassuring under the circumstances.
