Katie Couric Slyly Slams Joe Lieberman as Unethical
NewsBusters ^ | December 17, 2009 | P.J. Gladnick

One of the pet peeves of your humble correspondent is reporters who slam people or policies via the device of "some say" or "critics say" when in fact it is really their own position. However, they can't say what they really think in order to put up the false front of "neutrality." Such was the case of Katie Couric on the CBC Evening News last night in which she used her Notebook commentary to slam Senator Joe Lieberman for having unethical motives in opposing health care public opposition and an expansion of Medicare:

There's a new movie coming out next week called "It's Complicated," about a divorced couple with that age old relationship issue can't live with you, can't live without you.

I think that's how Democrats are feeling about their ex, Senator Joe Lieberman.

So now we have the nations middle aged cheerleader in the debate. Pray tell, her qualifications are what? Socialists really hate people don’t they? Imagine, a Senator represents the best interest of his state and the cheerleader thinks he owes the Dem party loyalty (the same Dem party that tried to throw him out of office and failed). Man, I am so glad I didn’t go to an ivy league college - look at all the hate I missed.

The senator from the state of Connecticut takes money from insurance companies!!!??? Next thing you'll tell me is the senator from Florida takes money from suntan oil companies!

Katie needs to take pronoun lessons from her hero, The Won. His specialty is the use of "I" and "me".

As if Lieberman were the only senator against this crap.

katie is engaging in "political jujitsu," applying pressure where she thinks it could do the most good. She's a good little foot soldier.

I think it’s even more newsworthy that somebody actually listened to Couric. Their advertisers will be happy to know there’s at least one person watching.

Personally I think she is one of the RAT’s foot soldiers common to the MSM, and that her “shtick” was an order from Der Fuerher, however it’s spelled.
