Katie Couric says sorry for 'misleading' edit in gun rights documentary

The Guardian ^ | May 31, 2016 | Lois Beckett

Couric is sorry, but not in the apologetic meaning of the eord.

[al_c]

“Sorry.”

[Paladin2]

Couric is sorry, but not in the apologetic meaning of the word.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Couric is not sorry and won’t be unless it costs her job.

She works for Yahoo! That company might fail of its own accord before a pressure campaign ever came up to speed.

[EDINVA]

“She’s sorry she got caught.”

Exactly!!!

It’s not as if she and her producers didn’t see the show in its entirety before it was shown to the public. She knew EXACTLY how it had been edited, and why: to propagandize her agenda. Period.

If I’m truly “sorry” about something, I don’t wait five days to say so.

Just another lying piece of MSM trash.

Yeah, I’m getting a little miffed with Yahoo email myself. I keep getting nag screens to change my password and give them my cell number. You’d think after saying No 50 times, they’d have the software recognize it and quit asking. It would be trivial to implement.

“If there are no background checks for gun purchasers, how do you prevent felons or terrorists from purchasing a gun?” Couric asks.

Someone should respond: "Spend a weekend on the south side of Chicago, after a few more get kills and wounded, and interview those shooters to find out about their background checks and 'legal' gun purchases, considering the strict gun purchase laws."

It is easier for the likes of Couric to make generalized statements than to provide true facts. Generalized statements fit the narrative; true facts don't.

[TomGuy]

I keep getting nag screens to change my password and give them my cell number.

I have noticed those on a few websites -- wanting cellphone numbers.

Yeah, right. I am going to post my phone number on such websites. Just what I want -- more spam calls. I get 1 to 2 per week being on the FED Do Not Call list. Then, there are the roto-dialers. Even the anti-spam software can't keep up with all the spamming.

[MCRD]

Who is going to play Perky on Robert Redfords new movie on how she was right from the start like Dan Blather.

[jimmygrace]

Why should anything happen to Katie? Liberals eat up fake news that conforms to their bigotry- John Stewart, Tina Fey, Colbert, Facebook, those 2 insufferable losers currently on Weekend Update...

[GOPJ]

It’s getting coverage BUT when a liberal says “I take responsibility,” that’s shorthand for ‘Shut the eff up - time to move on’...

Are they covering THAT?

[Boogieman]

Little Fakie Couric didn’t mean to make the gun meanies look bad, it was all just an accident!

This dishonest LIB nutcase no-talent shill should stick to showing videos of the inside of her colon. That is where her head is.

"When I screened an early version of the film with the director, Stephanie Soechtig, I questioned her and the editor about the pause and was told that a 'beat' was added for, as she described it, 'dramatic effect', to give the audience a moment to consider the question," Couric said. "When VCDL members recently pointed out that they had in fact immediately answered this question, I went back and reviewed it and agree that those eight seconds do not accurately represent their response."

EIGHT SECONDS is NOT A BEAT. It is more like about two whole measures.

[minnesota_bound]

So this means she is fired?
Anyone else would be but she works at Yahoo..... where the CEO will get $55 million when she leaves for helping to destroy the company.

[econjack]

Doncha love this:

[4yearlurker]

Who in the flying F*#@ still watches or cares about anything Katie Couric says or does??!!

[Twinkie]

“Katie” Colic ought to be put out to pasture. She’s too far
past her “sell by” date. - Also, ANYONE should have been
well forewarned by her crappy, attack dog interview of
Sarah Palin years ago. - It’s just asinine how her ilk goes
into overdrive lobbing softball questions & comments to
Hussein Obama & will bust a gut before they’ll do ANYTHING
that makes him look anything less than BLACK & fantastic.
When he’s really a half-white human being & no more than
that.

[polymuser]

Only sorry she got caught dirty-handed.
Not sorry for doing wrong.

[Gator113]

Katie Couric should be fired for her deliberate fraud and her faux apology.
