Did anyone see Katie Couric goading Joe Biden this morning?
She was in total whore mode this morning. She accused Biden of trying to blame the media for issues surrounding 9-11.

I've never seen her this bad, and I always thought she kept things on a pretty even keel...:puke:

1. YES!!!
I was so disgusted by her!

I'm sure her sister (God rest her soul) rolled over in her grave.

29. her sister
Her name escapes me but she was the democratic representative from Charlottesville, VA. She was a true hero until she lost her battle with cancer.

31. Thanks.
I can vaguely remember reading about this -- or watching something about it on TV -- some years ago.

2. If the shoe fits................
If the media did their jobs instead of kissing this administrations asses things might be a little better.

4. Wasn't it her show..

5. F9/11 really got Katie's goat
That clip where she gushes over a Navy Seal made her look like a little high school girl batting her eyes at the quarterback. She hates looking like a lightweight, and she is overcompensating like crazy. :)

6. They do not want to own up
to the fact that they are part of the problem. The truth is sometimes hard to swallow.

7. so true
Did you see her get all huffy and put her "serious" glasses on when Biden mentioned the media & their not reporting.

She blurted out, "SO YOU ARE BLAMING THE MEDIA NOW?"

You can tell he struck a nerve.

8. One of the Today Show's leading stories this morning....
Was "Celebrities are promoting F9/11 and speaking out against president B*sh. But does anyone really care?"


Damn Liberal Media!

9. She needs to get back to J Lo interviews
Edited on Fri Jul-23-04 08:56 AM by BeyondGeography
All she cared about this morning was covering her ass. As if there's an issue in the world she actually thinks about apart from her terminal quest to be wealthy and with it.

Lauer hasn't been any better lately. They must be having quiet dinners with Jack Welch, who no doubt reminds them what a great country this is that two such mediocrities can make millions of dollars a year acting cutesy wutesy in the morning for two hours.

12. She is a sorry stand-in for Jane Pauley
The Today show has been in a tailspin since Jane left. It appears to have crashed and is just slow to burn.

13. It's fallout from Moore's movie
The media darlings have been whores, but they're not stupid. They know Moore got the goods on them, their laziness, their corporate buttkissing, their blatant bias in favor of Idiot.

That's made them nasty and defensive, especially when they're interviewing any Democrat. Expect to see more of Ameerica's Sweetheart showing her teeth.

14. I feel sorry for Katie Couric.
Her gimmick (her late husband) has grown old and tiring, and so has she.

24. No, but I don't watch the Today Show anymore...
Katie's perky schtick got old for me a long, long time ago. She makes my skin crawl and Matt Lauer is no better. RW shills do that to me.

25. Fuck Katie Couric.
I was easier on her because her husband died horribly, but that doesn't give her the right to be a piece of shit.

26. The truth hurts
Boy, I've been seeing this over and over again in the media lately. Lazy, incompetent, corporate whores getting their hackles up the minute someone suggests their complicity in the duping of America.

If only they would show the same level of indignance when the lying liars of Bushco start spinning their shit. Ya know, be a journalist or STFU!

27. Biden should have snapped back when Hatie-Katie barked
"Oh so now it's the media's fault".

How many fucking makeovers, diet fads, fashion accessories, barbeque tips, celebrity updates did she devote her time to 'Today'?.
