Couric Scores First 'Runaway Bride' Chat (and helps her with the book deal to boot!)
Cable Newser.com ^ | June 13, 2005

It's a huge 'get' for Katie Couric.

She is sitting down with the 'Runaway Bride' Jennifer Wilbanks, and her fiancee John Mason, for an exclusive primetime interview June 21.

Parts of this interview will air on Tuesday and Wednesday's 'Today' show.

Why Katie? An emailer asks and answers: 'NBC was instrumental in getting the book deal done for the bride that wasn't.'

Is there anybody in this world who really cares about a bride that took off and a stupid Groom that is still dating her? Please folks just return the gifts to Walmarts and write this couple off.

Katie: "Don't you really think, deep down, that this is all George W. Bush's fault?"

Katie is badly trailing Diane Sawyer, journalistic integrity goes right out the door...

Actually, I think Katie is the pefect airhead to glorify this idiotic woman. Turds of a feather...

Man, I haven't seen Katie Koran in ages. Actually I was talking about the crazy bride - why on earth would anyone care about this? Is that all you have to do in America is break some law and act like a nut and you can make millions and be on TV? What's the incentive to behave? We should bring back the stocks for this gal and Katie.

Please, somebody, anybody turn off the cameras and walk away. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to see here.

I suppose this carves into the same demographic that also watches Fear Factor and Queer Eye. The factoid mentality with an attention span just short of the duration of a commercial break.

Its a good thing the internet is here and all they have to remember is one word: Google. Otherwise, they'd have forgotten everything they knew every 35 seconds.

Amazing. Um, can you tell I won't be tuned in. Katie Couric is nothing but a little glass of IRRELEVANT.
