Katie read what Jack and Jill Politics has to say about diversity in the newsroom.
If America becomes majority people of color, and this sort of imbalance still exists, there will be a painful reckoning for the powerful, who have refused to acknowledge change and won't be prepared when it comes, seemingly from nowhere. This is a wake up call. So wake up yall.
Kathi, I like you, but I expected more women stuff more us stuff. Katie, I need you to stop pushing Bush. Yes, you were cute as a button on that morning entertainment news show, but you are beginning to look like Hillary by the time the evening news comes on.
I did not say sound like Hillary, I said look like. Old and tired, old and tired. No one wants old and tired for their news or their president. I know you got the Benjamins, but I am telling you CBS will drop you like Imus. Did you see how old and tired he looked and he had millions of dollars.
You can do this Katie, you just got to wake up to the real world.

News blues. In a weak week for evening newscasts, CBS' Katie Couric hit a record-low 6.1 million viewers, with NBC's Brian Williams at 7.5 million and ABC's Charlie Gibson continuing his recent winning streak with 8.1 million.
Never did like Katie Couric. Never did. I thought it was a step down when she was brought onto the Today Show, but I guess that was the inevitable beginning of the end of actual morning "news" programs as opposed to infotainment. Katie was one of the first nails in the coffin of morning news.
ReplyDeleteSo whoever thought it would be an intelligent move to put her as an anchor during the evening news...?? They need their heads examined. Katie was never a news person, and the evening news is still news. At least to some degree. And to put her up against Charlie Gibson? C'mon. Cute is fine, but please.
Guess it's starting to show that I'm old school when it comes to news, eh?
Anyway..
I like Katie. But, I don't know what happened to her when she went to evening news.
ReplyDeleteI know there a few women out there that could do a much better job.
Thanks for coming over. Answer me this, How in the heck did Peyton Manning get involved to see the Queen and not Tony Dungy?
I just can't get that image out of my head, Manning, duh, in a white bowtie meeting the Queen.
