Babe??? Babe??? Give me a break.
Finally, someone at CBS told Couric, " I think viewers just want you to relay the news of the day."
Duh.
And, these panders of sexist victimization NEVER raise their voices against the barbaric treatment of women living under the yoke of Islam.
Can you say hypocritical?
Babe??? Babe??? Give me a break.
Actually, fair and truthful reporting would save CBS, but there's not a snowball's chance we'll see it.
She was the wrong the personality type for that job. We made that call on FR when they hired her.
Maybe they could bring Dan Rather back. Is he still looking for a news job?
She was supposed to Blaze the Trail for Hillary!!
Katie’s fall has little to do with her sex, but much more to do with her being an airhead trying to look smart. Even my liberal wife wouldn’t watch Katie and saw Katie as an intellectual lightweight only capable of doing fluff pieces on programs like GMA or The View.

Katie Couric Unsure Of Her Move to CBS: Jul 9, 2007
"KATIE COURIC last night underwent her second on-air colonoscopy. Watching the procedure was not a horribly painful event. Nor was it an experience I would volunteer to repeat any time soon. For her very first night as CBS News diva, Katie spent a half-hour looking as if she desperately had to go potty. "

Bill Sammon, Brit Hume, Victor Davis Hanson, Charles Krauthammer or Mark Steyn.
