saw in the gossip rags that perky katie couric is about to get axed!!!

[greenbriar]

I think it is damn funny, and for what CBS did to Dan Rather, I hope their news comes in last every day every year for ever more

1. I liked Katie on the Today show, but ...

she puts me to sleep on the news. Seriously ... she is so damn boring!

[greenbriar]

3. her rahah about Iraq war makes my blood boil

she is a repuke ass kisser and has NO journalist integrety or even class like Rather

[BattyDem]

4. I was too bored to get angry, LOL!

;-)

[Ediacara]

9. Wearing black and enunciating everything to death doesn't make her "serious"

[Ediacara]

2. Bring back Bob!

Or replace Katie with another real journalist, like Christiane Amanpour.

[JI7]

6. Christianne Amanpour is the right one for that type of job

you need someone who is going to report on serious news of the day including on the scene reporting which Katie said she wont do.

Christianne would so kick ass and she would hold the attention of the people who tune in and make them come back.

12. Lara Logans reports from Iraq and then the back and forth with Bob were

very well done, i thought CBS made a big mistake replacing him.

[hfojvt]

13. I cannot stand Bob. He's the one who seems like an RW hack

every time he does a report. He was the guy who filled in after Dan and said CBS would be more right wing with him in the chair.

I have made a point to watch Katie lately, and find several positives. First, I think she had Arianna Huffington on for a segment. I did not see that one, and I think she had Hannity on the day before Arianna. Her interview with Michael J. Fox was definitely in our favor, and today she had a guest on for a couple minutes talking about domestic violence. Shirley, we have to appreciate that as liberals. What other major network has talked about that on their news recently. Sure, she has alot of RW hacks on like Limbaugh and Hannity, but she seems to balance that out with LW people too, which probably puts CBS ahead of the rest of the M$M.

5. She shows no depth

It's like having a barbie doll reading the news. Kind of like Faux News gals.

[lpbk2713]

19. .... only she's not blonde.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[aquart]

7. In the ever-reliable supermarket checkout line.

I thought she had a no-cut contract.

[xultar]

10. The Enquirer has been right on a few items lately.

[sandrakae]

8. I saw that too. The dumb bitch had Rush Limbaugh on her show the first day.

She deserves to be fired for turning the evening news into tabloid television. The right wing bitch.

[Phredicles]

11. I'm sure if she does get dumped there'll be a job waiting for her

at Faux News.:eyes:

[Cleita]

14. Awwwwwwwwwwww!

I wish I could be upset.

:bounce:

[MrSlayer]

15. Well her show is pointless.

I don't know whether or not Katie wants to do hard news but the format that was thrust upon her clearly is bullshit and it isn't working.

[Cleita]

17. The problem is that the news isn't a show, it's a service

for the viewers to keep up with real current events. Didn't she get the memo?

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

16. She's definitely AM fluff material.

She doesn't even belong in the same league as those before her. Dan Rather puts her to shame. And Jennings is surely rolling over in his grave. I can't sit through her on the evening news...I just can't. It's sleep inducing.

[madmusic]

18. Fire away!

But I think they should hire Shepard Smith. If given free reign, he'd be independent. Then move katie to Fox in Shepard's spot so she can fuck them up.

[MiniMe]

20. She used to be on our local news before she went to the today show

She mostly did fluff pieces then.
