Our weekly look at the loudest screech from the mainstream media features former CBS News anchor Katie Couric, giving the commencement at the University of Virginia, claiming to have been cheated by sexists.

She said, “One of the problems with being a trailblazer is, sometimes you get burned. In those first few months at CBS, TV critics wrote about my clothes, my hair, my makeup, even the way I held my hands. Some said I lacked ‘gravitas,' which I've since decided is Latin for ‘testicles.'...My story may have played out in the public eye, but it's by no means unique. Every one of you will at some point be confronted by naysayers and learn that life isn't always fair. You'll feel cheated, you'll be mistreated. You'll wonder, when will I be loved?’”

Not on my watch...

[DManA]

Didn’t Couric get pushed out by another woman?

[Kirkwood]

She’s finally found her niche in comedy.

Katie, Katie, Katie....

what you lack is a measurable IQ.

Do da word “Bimbo” mean anythin’ to ya?

For the $15M or whatever she was paid every year for zip talent she should thank her lucky stars and shut her yapper.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well yes Katie, guess what, your liberal friends ARE big hypocrites. They ARE sexists, and worse.

There’s a lot of room on the right side of the aisle, Katie. Ever think of knocking on Fox’s door?

[seanmerc]

Why yes, as a matter of fact she did. However, please don’t confuse The Perky One with facts. She will not allow them to stand in the way of her public proclamations.

[ReformationFan]

Leftist narcissists like Katie thinks it all about them. “Love me and love me right now!!!!!”

[SoldierDad]

If this bimbo had spoken at my commencement I would have gotten up and walked out. It's easy to see how much she has in common with Obozo - "me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me me"

[tet68]

Katie, Katie, Katie.
Come here girl, I’ll love ya.
DO I love ya?
Of course, I’m ****ing you ain’t I?

[Army Air Corps]

The simple truth, Katies is this:

You’re no good, you’re no good
Katie, you’re no good.

[Army Air Corps]

The simple truth, Katie is this:

You’re no good, you’re no good
Katie, you’re no good.

And if you had it, you'd know what the word 'gravitas' actually means.

[Sir Napsalot]

Don’t make me laugh. Couric, a trailblazer? Of what?

Definitely not ‘a journalist’ (in the old sense).

[SoldierDad]

Carly Simon’s “You’re so Vain” comes to mind.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

She was paid at least 100 times as much as an actual journalist; entirely on the basis of her looks, her hairdo, her clothes ... all the things she now claims to be offended about.

[Timber Rattler]

She said, “One of the problems with being a trailblazer is, sometimes you get burned.

Yeah, Sarah Palin knows all about that.

[Gertie]

Right on, must be terrible to be a “Stud” locked in a woman's body, cougar at that. She claims shes been picked on since day one even when she worked in a pizza parlor, poor thing.

[BigBobber]

The “affable Eva Braun of morning TV” has a whine fest.

Katie - your ratings sucked. That’s why you got fired.

[NathanR]

Katie, do you remember Barbara Walters? She was few decades ago. If anyone was a pioneer, she was, not you.
