Raw footage of CBS News anchor Katie Couric recording voice-overs for news segments about Gov. Sarah Palin on the day she was named as John McCain’s running mate.

Just more confirmation of the liberal mainstream media. Of course some idiot like Keith Olbermann or Rachel Maddow will soon be droning on how this is all a figment of our imagination. Journalism is a joke.

I watched part of it. Katie has difficulty reading.

[Christus_Rex]

Yep not the brightest bulb. No doubt she can thank affirmative action.

[Obadiah]

I watched the video and I want my 5 minutes back. Boring. Nothing there. The Perky one made a remark about the Palin children's names. No big deal. Not worth the time to criticize. Sheesh.

[hometoroost]

True. Is affirmative action code for “mattress back?”

[outpostinmass2]

Thanks, I won’t waste my time then.

The media slut strikes again....

Actually it captures the attitude she had for Palin from the first day. She hated her from the minute she heard about her, very orchestrated attack from then on. No surprise she was going to do a hit piece.

Katie Couric “News Anchor”. Why are they calling a fluff morning host a News Anchor?

[theBuckwheat]

Elitist gatekeepers ignorant that the walls the gates were attached to no longer exist.

My wife observes that Couric sounds like a typical white person who is not comfortable with people who are not like them.

The author wrote that the concern was not the mocking of her kids name...but the content of description of Palin.

Remember, Obama’s campaign from day one refused to address her as Governor , and instead called her a small town mayor and beauty queen.

And Katie obviously got the memo.

[trisham]

That makes sense. Thanks!

That 1976 movie Network becomes more and more real everyday.

[onona]

I agree. Nothing there. I wish I read this post and saw your comment before I threw my five minutes away ! Sheesh.

Urban Dictionary: couric
A unit of measure for fecal matter. One Katie Couric is equal to approximately two and a half pounds of excrement. (From South Park season 11, episode 9.)

I find it encouraging that this was leaked from someone entrusted with possession of this clip. Can you imagine the damage that could be done when “lesser mortals” in these liberal news outlets turn against Obama?

[rhoda_penmark]

I just can’t watch it.
It is no figment of my imagination how I remember her visibly *sneering* like a twelve-year-old while interviewing Barbara Bush (as first lady). I cannot turn the TV off quickly enough when her hideous countenance appears.

[Fu-fu2]

I remember seeing a newspaper description of her “Mayor of Wasilla”, with a photo of a shack that was supposed to show Wasilla. The obvious intention was to make it look like she was mayor of a third world village....

This is just another example of how self proclaimed liberal elites hold the rest of us in utter contempt. I am reminded how the Pharisees mockingly said ..."Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?"
