KATIE COURIC BRINGS PERK TO ‘MEET THE PRESS’?

The real winner of this presidential election could be Katie Couric.

It wasn’t long ago that the TV veteran was the laughingstock of primetime news as she struggled to bring in ratings on CBS Evening News. But now she is being heralded as “one of the five most important people in politics not running for president,” but the New York Observer.

In a story titled A Star is Reborn, the publication says that her political interviews have been so newsmaking that her name is being tossed around as a potential candidate to fill Tim Russert’s shoes as moderator of NBC’s Meet The Press.

    It’s amazing how hard they’re pushing to convince us Couric is a “star”, as if they repeat it enough it’ll actually come true. The reality is, she has horrible ratings and is nothing but a partisan shill. I guarantee you that she will take the ratings of “Meet the Press” into the gutter—an appropriate place for her brand of “journalism”. Any bets?

    Katie Couric. did a service to this country exposing the true Sara Palin: the idiot!
    It was stated in the press early-on Palin has an IQ of 115– hardly exceptional.
    Considering W fuckingBUSH has one of 120?!
    this should frighten the population of all of planet Earth. I know it scares the crap out of me, and mine’s 150!

  5. OBAMA ALL THE WAY!!!

    4…..So in addition to being a narrow-minded idiot you’re apparently a liar as well.

    Yes Obama has won the election. Be careful what you wish for. Venezuela initially voted for a socialist candidate in Hugo Chavez as well. The damage he’s done to that country speaks for itself.

    Tim Russert must be spinning in his grave at the idea of Katie taking over Meet the Press. There are too many good people already at NBC for them to be looking outside for that job.
