CNN is becoming the Liberal Graveyard of the MSM.

Why would they want to keep a fifteen-million dollar mistake?

I guess Gov love potion number 9 needs a new co-host to get cozy with. He's paid for Kathleen Parker, dump her and move on to the next one....

At this point, Katie probably has all the $$$ she needs after suckering See-BS. Going to CNN is a smart move for her considering the alternative is the unemployment line. Its incredibly stupid on CNN’s part though, if true (this may just be Katie trying to generate some buzz).

Oh, CNN you are geniuses! Katie Couric would be a godsend, a ratings nirvana, a FOX killer, news and bias at its finest. ...and they still wonder why they're in the dumper.

I think the idiots of CNN, and the rest of the LSM are all pushing to become the sole providers of the Marxist dogma,
sort of like the old Radio Moscow, once Obambie has created the USSA.

Perky Katie Couric has seen her ratings drop to an all time low. Despite her recent trip to document life in Afghanistan, Katie Couric returned to see that her ratings were lower than any other reporters in recorded history.

I expect CNN and MSNBC to get into a bidding war over her.
