Katie, "some say" a month off the air wasn't long enough
Just found this tidbit about Katie in a bio:

Her husband, lawyer and NBC legal analyst Jay Monahan, died in 1998 after battling colon cancer for eight months.

Couric spent a month off the air in private mourning then returned in typically professional and graceful fashion while wearing his wedding ring on a chain around her neck.

After a heartfelt thanks to all who supported her during her traumatic time, she proceeded to grill Monica Lewinsky’s lawyer, William Ginsburg, in a surprisingly tough interview.

1. "some say" Couric is another of the 'do as I say not as I do'
hypocrites in public life.

2. So, you mean she waited until he DIED, to "take time off"?
She did not drop everything, quit her job, and velcro herself to him while he was still alive?
She took time off from her job, only AFTER he died? Sounds kind of selfish
:sarcasm:
