Do You Tune Into Katie Couric's Evening News?

January 29, 2009

While the nightly headlines might not be so optimistic, things are looking up for Katie Couric and CBS. On the tails of her Sarah Palin interview this Summer, Katie has secured a Grammy special, and the first interview with US Airways pilot Chelsey "Sully" Sullenberger. Meanwhile, ratings for the CBS Evening News are on the rise. Last year, it was almost impossible to find pro-Katie news out there. But now, experts speculate that Katie's warm presence makes her the perfect anchor for these tough times.

So tell me, are you one of those viewers helping Katie rise to the top?

caterpillargirl and bluesaralou, be careful Couric is a scary lady. She might set her cute little friends on the both of you.

Sarah OMG. (oh my goodness) :ROTFL: I have never in my life paid any attention to Katie Couric. When I want news I don't get it from her.

I've stopped watching the news, it's all so depressing!

Katie Couric is a snore..zzzzz Oh! She has a monotone voice and she seems very uninterested in what she is saying to the public. The only time I think the American public took notice is when she interviewed Sarah Palin. At that point, Sarah Palin made Katie look interesting.....Katie is boring (yawn, yawn) quite boring..

I chose the option that I watch other networks, but on second thought, I really get my news off the internet sites, FOX being highest on the list, but I also check out Wallstreet Journal and Newsweek to keep my perspective clear.

Katies a cold fish, its excrutiating to watch her interview anyone. I didnt like her when she showed up on the news back in the day and everyone was all "awwww look how cute it is!" and I dont like her now, when everyone is all "awwwww look how warm she is"

I can't watch Katie because I'm busy watching FOX News (sound of running as hypnoticmix dodges rocks & stones).

I actually think some older viewers (well, the only ones who watch the evening news on the networks) would find Katie comforting.

"Like a golden retriever puppy...that kills and eats babies. " Like that South Park episode where they go to Imagination Land and the most evil nasty creatures were those cute little cuddly animals?
