You mean, Couric should appologize for studying With Anti-Palin Advisers Before Palin Interview

I hope that prediction comes true: I hope CBS disappears in 2009.

And again - the leftist are in collusion to change this nation’s values!

When are we going to raise children who WILL go into the media - so WE can have a definite voice in our nation! Forget FoxNews - it has gone tabloid since the 2006 election!

Did anyone here read this post - WOW - As usual - it came out too late:

Couric Studied With Anti-Palin Advisers Before Palin Interview

“Jeff Bercovici of Portfolio.com reported in a brief item that Couric revealed in a panel discussion that she boned up with anti-Palin foreign-policy advisors before interviewing the Alaska governor. Peter Kafka of All Things Digital featured this piece of the Bercovici report:

Couric shed some light on her preparation for the interviews: Beforehand, she sought advice from former senator Sam Nunn and Council on Foreign Relations president Richard Haas [actually, it’s Haass]. They told her to draw Palin out on her geopolitical worldview and urged her to let the governor speak at length without interrupting her. Maybe she should bring them along with her when she takes over at Meet the Press?

That would be a sad day for substance on Meet the Press, if it ever happened. Sam Nunn, of course, is now leading the Obama transition team on defense policy, and Haass and was probably familiar to Couric through his appearances as an analyst on NBC. Haass was a top aide to Colin Powell in the first two years of the Bush administration, and remember, Powell endorsed Obama. Haass publicly expressed Vice President Palin would be way too inexperienced for the veep job.

Kafka noted that Bercovici’s story was pulled – not because it was inaccurate, but because Portfolio sponsored the panel discussion with the media investment group Quadrangle, which insisted on a no-press policy. Did Couric’s camp complain? Kafka thought the no-press policy was ironic for a panel stuffed with press. . .
