Katie Couric and Stephanie Soechtig, who tackled childhood obesity in this year's documentary Fed Up, are setting their sights on an even bigger hot-button issue: gun violence.
"Much like Fed Up traced the history of the obesity epidemic, this film will trace the history of guns and their impact on society," says Couric, currently Yahoo's global news anchor. "We hope we can deconstruct this complex issue and give people a better understanding of existing and proposed gun laws and take a closer look at one of the most polarizing issues of our time."

Will she tell her viewers that 50% of all shooting victims are black men? Probably not. She’ll more likely focus on the small fraction that are killed in school shootings and how those evil “assault weapons” need to be banned because of it.
Im sure its going to be a fair and balanced report.
Now excuse me while I saddle up my unicorn for my daily ride up the rainbow.
“Katie Couric Takes Aim at Gun Violence...”
I’m numb with anticipation.
Dozens will watch.
Hopefully she will do a series on other massive causes of death; bathtubs, drunk drivers, abortion, suicide. And the biggest killer in the last century: collectivism.
Good lord katie, humans have been killing each other for millennia using every contrivance know to man. Perhaps it’s in our best interest to arm ourselves. I’ll bet she has armed security.
Laugh if you want but that documentary got almost 220 views on youtube.
Hope she remembers to pick up her pot of gold. Oh, wait she already did that as a news anchor. Anchor. Hmmm. Kind of light for any useful “anchor”. Not to mention most “anchors” are smarter than she is. They just shut up and do their job. Sittin’ on the bottom not bothering anybody.
Astounding that those numbers are so big.
A liberal documentary pushing gun control? A look at gun violence from a liberal point of view? We should be so excited about this? Can’t wait......(sarcasm)
Maybe she needs to take another look up her colon to find more evidence.
I thought she went around in a permanent state of having her head in her colon.
This will change the world. I just know it!
Just go to the southside of Chicago and start filming, Katie....
Will this has been Katie the Perky One mention that more people are killed every year by hammers than by semi-automatic rifles?
Will her bogus “documentary” even use the correct term, “semi-automatic rifles?”
It already sounds like a major suckfest of a “documentary.”
And on a more important note...I understand that Katie has the most amazing recipe for chocolate angel food cake.I guarantee that I’m gonna be tuning in for *that*!
I’ve posted this before, but some may have missed it.
This is a recap of her knowledge of firearms:
During the Wash., DC sniper attack, she was interviewing, IIRC, an FBI agent. She told him that she understood that what made the AR-16 so deadly is because it had (I kid you not) “spirals in the barrel”.
The agent, instead of ROTFLing all over the place, kept his composure and just said “yes ma’am”.
And don't even talk to me about letter openers.The carnage they cause would leave you speechless.
