Its not that I dont believe people can do whatever they put their mind to.......
Katie Couric CAN do the CBS evening news and 60 minutes.....

The issue is....will the viewing public be able to accept her in that role.....?

I don't think they will.  I hate to say it, but I think Anne Curry is more of an "evening news" type person.

Unless they are going to strictly use Katie for their "fluff" pieces.  She has always been the one to interview the person who came on the show with a certain recipe, or a celebrity with a new movie out, etc....
She asks good questions.....but the stories are all centered around "people's interests"...not world events.

I love Katie Couric right where she is.

Meredith Viera will fail...and fail badly.  It will be back to gameshow alley for her.

Let's just hope that Meredith's husband is not giving her career advice.  :-\\

Hubby was the guy who convinced Dan Rather to "get tough" in an interview with President Bush I way back in 1988, and Bush absolutely destroyed Dan Rather in the interview. Dan got his a$$ handed to him.   ;D

Hubby was subsequently fired from CBS for his part in the debacle.  :-X

Shes hot...

..dunno if she belongs in the news chair though, perhaps.

Just because her current work isn't that type, whos to say she couldn't do it?

I'm willing to give her a chance, actually.

This is just so insulting.  Bubbly little Katie taking the anchor desk on CBS, they gotta be kidding.  Am I the only one here disgusted by all of this.  Oh, and Meredith Viera on the Today Show? Another reason I don't care if I see it or not.


So who's to replace Meridith on "Who wants to a Millionaire"? Or has that already been canceled? I like her but I'm afraid that she'll be known as a Hollywood permtemp.

Perhaps of equal intrigue is who is going to host the game "Who Wants to be the next CBS News Anchor".

Because I assure yo that after the initial ratings bump, viewership of a Katie-anchored CBS News show will plummet and she will get kicked to the curb.

If Kronkite were dead, he would be rolling over in his grave.  :-\\

The network news might as well be a soap opera. It is more about the celebrity of the anchors ("news models," I prefer) than news and current events.
What does Katie Couric actually do? Why should I care about this crap?

Actually the question is who does Katie do    ::)

Okay let's quit the cattiness.

These two women were serious journalists before The View and The Today Show. They have interviewed both serious people and celebrities. Don't knock them for changing avenues. It doesn't add or subtract from your life. If it does, then that's just sad.

Well, can you picture Barbara Walters in the sack with Henry Kissinger? Whether you want to picture it or not, it happened!

And I'll take "Phrases likely to appear in threads about Katie 'Yes, that's the inside of my colon, and I'm broadcasting the view from in there on national TV' Couric" for $1000, Alex.
