It’s a pure pyrite play today.

[Jagman]

I thought the all-time low was her Palin interview (badda boom!)

[DoughtyOne]

When she started including personal human interest stories, as part of the evening news broadcast, I knew it was only a matter of time.

Her first night she explained that she saw her job as needing to educate the American public.

Looks like Katie is getting the education.

Katie, pay backs a b***ch ain’t it

[WakeUpAndVote]

[Political Junkie Too]

It doesn't matter.

Couric got her award for taking out Sarah Palin.

Just like Krugman got his award for taking out Bush's economics.

Just like Gore got his award...

Still a lot more viewers than any show on Fox news or any other non-MSM news show. The influence of the MSM continues to be dominant.

[Shaka]

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!

[P-Marlowe]

Any other industry they FIRE people for massive incompetance like this.

And in some industries they fire people for spelling errors.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer whack left liberal!....

[Sundog]

Katie needs to do a lot more coverage of the Lingerie Football League if she wants her ratings to improve.

[RckyRaCoCo]

Perhaps another on-air anal exam would help?

Oh, that's right...anyone stupid enough to watch her garbage gets one every night.

(BTW, so no one is watching???...does that mean that poor dog gets shot?...the b*&%$)

[mojitojoe]

Gee that really breaks my heart/s

[dead]

[Loud Mime]

My favorite line of that war was when somebody called that guy “Comical Ali”

[theDentist]

Shouldn’t they be walking Kewpie to the door, blindfold and cigarette at the ready?

[BerniesFriend]

I know what can save perky katie..if only she can discover documents from Sarah Palin’s former commander in the Alaskan National Guard saying that Sarah is a terrible soldier who spends all her time shopping for fancy clothes for her and her kids..of course this would be dated back in 1972..what can possibly go wrong????

I think it was Bernie Goldberg who made a really good point about Katie awhile back. He compared her to cereal. It’s good in the morning, but in the evening you want something a little more filling. At the time I thought hiring Couric was a terrible business decision. They could’ve just promoted one of their run of the mill field reporters for a fraction of Couric’s salary and probably gotten slightly higher ratings.
