KATIE COURIC GETS CANDID

Check out some unaired video of perky morning gal Katie Couric during her first time election night coverage.

While we understand that this is behind-the-scenes footage, it’s as if she dropped off a turnip truck into the news studio.

How do I look? What’s the election about? Where are we? Do I have snot on my nose? What are all of those lights and big machines? Cameras? Do I look good? Can you bring me a prettier microphone? Can you pin it on me? Can you stand behind me and read this while I move my lips? How do I look? Am I pretty? Prettier than Cindy McCain?

    She sucks and now I know why no watches the CBS evening news. Quite frankly, the evening news should only be presented by a MAN. Deal with it!!!!

    I’m Brian Williams and thats how I roll!!!

    I think she talks so much because she’s nervous and insecure. Her laugh in annoying though.

    JESUS CHRIST you’re fucking SEXIST. I watched the whole boring thing waiting for her to be petty but she just wasn’t. All she was doing was prepping and asking assistance from her assistants, whose JOB it is to mic her, coif her, get her poll numbers, etc.

    I’m not saying I’d want to hang out with her, and in fact I think her program sucks, but her off-air behavior is exactly like anyone’s who is about to be on TV breaking down the most important electoral race in the world.

    Arasto or whatever your name is, do you understand the difference between a “pretty” microphone and one that properly functions? And “What’s the election about?” Really? You wouldn’t infintalize and condescend to Jon Stewart as he’s getting spoon-fed his info even though he is a COMEDIAN and Couric has been a journalist for over twenty years.

    I agree with eek…the whole video seems pretty normal to me. Let’s see a male anchor in the same behind the scenes scenario and I just know it would be the same thing.

    Completely agree with eek. Also, she is getting new reports and stats and info every 15 seconds, so obviously it’s confusing keeping everything seperate. At least she’s clarifying with her people so she doesn’t report something incorrect. I waited the whole video for her to ask “how do I look?” and not ONCE did those words come out of her mouth. All of this isn’t even considering she is just getting better from a cold, that she mentioned more than once. Do us a favor and don’t be so sexist, or just stay out of the more important political arenas and go back to writing about trashy starlets, you’re good at that.
