Haha, you just got here from the Dixie Chicks thread didn't you?

I believe their idea was to increase ratings. They didn't understand their audience...over 65, doesn't follow the issues too closely, Democrat, doesn't like to change show preferences too often, comfort.
Everyone else is gone and ain't coming back. Unless they get a Brit Hume or different point of view to get NEW demographics, they will be stuck with the same ratings over the three channels. The puff pieces were good for train-wreck-watchers, but they already saw the wreckage.

Hey, maybe we could get new careers in New York as TV executives! Myself, I would work for 1/4 their salaries, and I would guarantee instant ratings success or they could keep their money.
Here is the answer:
1. Start covering the Republicans as something other than fascist crooks who oppress the common man.
2. Start giving the military some positive stories (a feature three nights a week on overseas units and what they have been doing would be a good start).
3. Actual investigative stories on topics pertinent to all Americans, such as HOW oil prices are REALLY determined, rather than the moonbat conspiracy theories.
4. Institute a "no Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter" policy for the first 60 days.
5. Admit that the TANG story about Bush was a fraud, and offer an honest apology.

She should pull a Robert Novak CNN moment before it's too late.

I don't think the problem is Couric. It is the producers. They are producing a show too light on news and heavy on touchy-feely fluff.

I've never seen her on any TV show; I'm only familiar with her image from extensive print exposure. Still, if I was at UVA at the time, every guy (and some gals?) would be all over this:

Network news will be on the ash heap of history within a few years anyway. It's a money loser, since the all-news Cable channels are where people go to now.

I saw Dan Rather's 5 minute promo of his show in HDTV and it was a hoot! He talked about (and I'm not making this up) "well researched stories" HAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAH

Darn, Mz Marbles,
There you go with all that rational objective logic again.
You are obviously NOT suited to work in TV news.
