Handshake? I don't think that's how she 'worked' her way up the ladder.

At Gannett, Furloughs but Nice Paydays for Brass
“Ms. Couric is pursuing the idea of her own syndicated talk show, possibly with her former Today show co-host, Matt Lauer.____________________________________
Did she not get the memo that Airhead America went belly-up?
Marxist talk radio, wow.
Maybe she can get tapes of the old Radio Moscow (1960s),
or even better, Radio Albania.
Ha ha. Looks like Gannett's management is moving toward the Arianna Huffington model.
That would be knee burns, she was way to ugly for anything else, before she spend millions on her face.
These two are delusional, although maybe MSNBC would give them a slot. Or Al Gore's network....

How typical. Her failures are always attributed to others.
I thought they were talking about a syndicated TV talk show not a radio show since both are TV talkers.
“I thought they were talking about a syndicated TV talk show not a radio show”
Well, I guess you may be right.
I just never think of a TV show being called
a “talk show”, but I have not seen US TV since 2005.
I do, however, listen to “talk shows” all day via internet.

Couric Explores Show With Lauer

Sorry for your cousin.

More from Star: “After landing her first TV news job at CNN’s Atlanta headquarters, Klein claims that Katie plunged into a steamy affair with a married, considerably older CNN exec. Soon, says the author, they were the talk of the newsroom - and were even spotted “making out.” Klein writes that the exec saved her from getting fired several times. But even though Katie ditched the CNN honcho when she accepted a job at an NBC affiliate in Miami in the mid-1980’s, his marriage soon ended.”
***
The report details that once in Miami, Klein claims, Katie quickly lined up another high-profile lover, a 12-years-older, married, dad-of-two who was a media spokesman for the Miami-Dade Police Department. “[That] position put him in the know and made him a source par excellence for an ambitious young journalist like Katie,” writes Klein. The two dated until Katie left Miami for Washington D.C. and took a job at anther NBC affiliate, according to the author.
