Katie Couric
Oh, who really cares? This story involves so many types I do not care for: Television Executives, Publicists (oh, sorry, I mean "media strategists"), Pundits, Katie's Wonder Bread fan base (who make Oprah's fan base look hardcore in comparison), Katie's annoying and ever extending family and on and on.
She bugs me. They all bug me but at least Barbara Walters is insecure, Diane Sawyer is open about her inner ice queen and --wait---it's not the 80s, there are no more. Cable news killed the Network news star. No more all star baby showers on Murphy Brown.
Katie only blew up after her husband died. She became like this sob-sister idol. And it all kind of happened simultaneous to celebrity culture emerging as the dominant form in this country.
Nobody watches the 6:00 news anymore, that's the real story. That and how are they going to try and make the 6:00 news more like "The Today Show." She has no gravitas. What a bore.
