The Katie Couric "I'm a serious newswoman" ad just aired in SoCal
Dark suit, behind a desk, glasses in hand. Who does she think she's kidding?!

OK, snarky it is, but at least it's a different topic. :)

3. Oh yeah, she's a real life Murphy Brown
Which makes me wonder, if CBS was airing "Murphy Brown" today, I bet Murphy's character would have been more like Corkie's - rather than risk reminding us what real reporters used to be like.

6. If you have to say "I'm Cool,"
1. You are not.
2. You will never be.

"Navy SEALS rock!" needs to be shoved up her corporate-whore ass until she learns to love it.

:evilgrin:

8. WTF is wrong with CBS?
Katie Couric has already destroyed their reputation for me. Only a very flawed decion-making process could have selected Couric as a face for their news operation.

I suppose there is really no independent corporate media remaining. All of them have become hopelessly influenced by the parent corporations and the desires of the super-rich.
