Excuses, Excuses
Filed under: Media Minute > Politik > Katie Couric
The surprisingly looooong road to the '08 party nominations for President has allowed almost all 'big named' TV types the chance to moderate a debate.
But, a huge name is missing from the list of moderators — Katie Couric.
Couric is the highest-paid anchor on evening television and her absence from said list of peeps has the news world abuzzin'.
According to an industry source, CBS claims that Katie's just a victim of circumstance. CBS was scheduled to host the Los Angeles DNC debates, but it fell through partly because of the little talked about News Writer's Strike.
The president of CBS news stated, “I think [Ms. Couric] would have been really good at it. I think it would have been a good showcase for CBS News. But it just wasn’t to be this cycle.”
However, industry insiders and former CBS employees are asserting that CBS News just might not have the 'emotional and financial resources' to give Katie what she needs to pull off a debate.
In other words, they think she sucks!

…k?
DID YOU SEE THE DICK HEADS THEY HAD FOR THE DEBATES. ALL THEY DID WAS KISS OBAMA'S ASS AND TREAT HILLARY LIKE DIRT.
CAN YOU IMAGINE IF OBAMA WAS TREATED THAT WAY?
I believe CBS. Her ratings may be low but she's still a credible journalist & I don't think they would have turned down the chance for her to be in the limelight.
Katie doesn't suck. The misogynists just don't like her personally. I watch her more than any other tv news program. Then again, if I really want to know what's going on, I go to the internet.
i banged this bitches hole one time back in highschool.. it was all kinds of bushy and she had blood on her underwear but i still torn her cunt apart with my cock. Then she started to cry cuz i popped her cherry and like all this white fluid was drippin from her cunt and she was all wide eyed and said she wanted to talk to the news about it and so that was why she decided to becum a newscaster! cuz of my 9 inch cock! now take that bitches and swallow
HAVE ANY WOMEN BEEN MODERATORS YET?
Oh give it a rest. There have been enough debates….and network coverage. Why be so blasted nasty about Katie Couric? The World has to hear about your elections ALL summer now…do we really care who moderates? I just want to see you with a President who has INTEGRITY…who understands that America DOESN'T rule the WORLD.
Re: PEREZ, FOR SOME REASON THE MEDIA CAN TREAT WOMEN LIKE SHIT! – obama is so dirty that he's black! hahahaa… ya, katie couric should give him a back on cbs to like get him clean and like get ratings up and also get obama's 4 inch cock up… lord knows it hasn't been up in years! Have u seen his wife?! ewww! no wonder he is runnin for pres! So he can get some hot interns to suck his meat since his ol black bitch is so fug!
boboan … wat the hell?
u contacted her on a website, talked with her on webcam and took her picture?????
She looks old!
I LOVE YOU PEREZ!!!
I'd fuck her if she's be quiet for 10 minutes.
GODDAM got enough botox up in yer grill????????
God, this woman is another successful glass ceiling buster and you can't hate on her fast enough, you fucking idiot posters! Go suck off and dream about how you'll never, ever in ten thousand years host one second of television on CBS. She would have been great hosting a debate and bring that mofo Barack to his knees with some real questions.
#5 boboan, you fucking idiot, I know you want people to go to your lame skanky site–do you really think ANYONE believes Katie Couric goes on your stupid fucking site? GET LOST IDIOT
Re: hotcum – Hotcum you sound like a closet rapist. Figures.
Overblown debates and overpaid news anchors aside, looks like Katie needs to put down the mascara wand or hire a make-up artist. Her eyelashes are looking nasty! The only person allowed to have such caked on mascara was Tammy Faye! Back away from the mascara, Couric!
HAG!
Katie Couric needs lip augmentation. Some people look ridiculous with it (Nicole Kidman, Meg Ryan, etc.) way over the top - BUT - this girl, Katie Couric could use an injection or permanent implant. Her lips are WAAAAY too skinny.
I can't stand this fake woman!!! She tries and tries but she would be so much more notable if she were real!
Our course those wetbacks in Texas voted overwhelmingly for Hillary. If it were up to her, all of Mexico could come over here illegally and take over our entire country. She doesn't even think that English should be the official language of the US. Obviously, any country needs a common language that binds everyone together, or there will be chaos. What an idiot!!! If she becomes the nominee of the Democratic Party, there's no way in hell conservatives in the south would crossover and vote for her. Wishful thinking on her part.
That woman will do and say anything for votes.
I Love You Prezzious, but Katie covered the Dem action in Cleveland on poll night. In case you didn't hear, Cuyahoga County (i.e. the Cleveland area) had only 69,000 Republicans at the polls, while the Dems showed up en masse…a whopping 330,000+! My hubby, a Repub., claims apathy on the part of the Repubutards since they don't have a decent, fit, or sane candidate. I say the "Hillraisers" did a great job, and they have predicted the next American President. BTW, have you noticed how so many news media call the current Chief "Mr. Bush" rather than president? They also dis the missus, referring to her as Laura or Mrs. Bush. I guess respect is given where deserved, and neither of them deserve ANY!!! Thank you to all of the new voters who came out for Hillary! AMEN
She is not a good news anchor, ackkk
Hillary = a sure win for McCain in November
Hillary is as delusional as she wants to be…
LEAVE KATIE ALONE, YOU FUCKING CUNT! SHE'S NOT DRY ENOUGH TO BE A MODERATOR.
Re: Her Royal Thighness –
Do you realize that Perez himself is Latino? Do you also know that the Latino population is the largest growing in the U.S.? Hmm, how about the fact that one must be a registered U.S. citizen to vote? It is ignorance such as yours that makes educated Americans (of all integrated nationalities) ashamed of "white bread" Americans who think they are superior, even though their ancestors were not natives of this country. If you so dislike the U.S. and our melting pot, perhaps you should return to the continent, or rock, from which you came from.
Re: Suzi –
You can think whatever you want, but the fact remains that more people are fleeing into this country from Mexico than any other country and ILLEGALLY at that. Most people from other countries that want to come here have to wait years to get LEGAL citizenship. Is that fair….of course not!!! IF you want your tax dollars spent on illegals,more power to you.
I am sick of people saying that illegals are only taking low pay jobs that no Americans would want. I don't buy that BS for a second. You expect me to believe that no umemployed American would love to have one of those jobs right about now??? Yeah, right. You're crazy as hell
IS SHE ALIVE…I FORGOT ABOUT HER….THOT SHE DIED IN IRAQ
poor cunt
Perez you are right, my friend, she sucks - should have stayed on Today - I used to watch with her and matt but not anymore….
little kitty katie has her head so firmly up the bush family ass that she has no credibility. they need to fire her raggedy ass already.
if katie couric is moderating presidential debates you might as well get ryan seacrest to do the next one
What the fuck??????
Katie Couric is neither a reporter, anchor person, nor any type of news
professional. She's a sorry excuse for any of the above.
Thats what Lauren Conrad will look like in 20 years!
liberal bitch. billary lover. she does suck.
I ALWAYS get sidetracked by her false teeth.
she will gone in less than yr.
is despised in the biz.
She does suck, and she's a big crybaby to boot! It is tiresome to hear her cry about being a women while for her, being a women paid off quite nicely. She bumped off a number of other more seasoned men at CBS because they wanted a women. She gets paid more then any of her male colleges despite being last in the ratings, because she's a women. CBS is treating her with kit gloves despite losing millions in advertising revenue because she's a women. She pulled the same crap on NBC to the point where Matt Lauer and her were hardly talking. She is known in the industry as a big crybaby who screams the gender card the second things don't go her way.
CBS fires Dan Rather and hires Katie Couric? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This woman, who got her job when she was young and had that "cute" (huh?!) smile showing her "cute" (huh?!) little teeth is THE WORST REPORTER/INTERVIEWER ON EARTH!! There is a good reason she hasn't done anything this election time: SHE IS TERRIBLE! She would, first of all, have to know who the candidates are, then she would have to know how to pronounce their names; she would have to know who is republican, who is democrat, who is liberal or conservative; is that John McCain or George Bush the father? Where is John Kerry? Is that John Kerry's son, John Edwards? That kind of thing. It's taken her all this time to almost figure it out, and now there are only 3 left. It's not easy for her, all this remembering stuff. (I'm really loving this hate thing I got going on.)
The BITCH is going down in FLAMES. Hope CBS had enough brains to get some of their money back because of the poor ratings. Then maybe she is HUMMING her way up the ladder.
Why would this dumb bitch who has low ratings and a shitty news cast on for a half hour that no one watches on a network that no one watches… BE HIGHLY PAID?? Are they kidding.. CBS really stepped in a huge pile of shit with her. I think she sucks she should have stuck to her fluff shit news on the Today show… I can't believe CBS still pays this bitch and has kept her on. Mr. Moonves.. do yourself and your network a favor and DUMP HER BEFORE SHE DRAINS YOU DRY! HA.. dumbasses
I used to intern for CBS News and Katie Couric wouldn't even take a picture with me!!!!! She is NOT a nice person!!! And the woman I worked for was fired for PLAGERISM!!!! CBS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the woman I worked for got fired for PLAGERISM!!!!
CBS SUCKS!!!
yeah, you think being on tv for so long, someone would have showed her how to put on mascara
she is totally stupid and overrated.
I remember watching her 'anchor' coverage of Princess Di's death–she was downright embarrassing. Knew nothing of UK history and even less about the Royals. She totally sealed her fate then. Why they keep shelling out the big bucks for her gummy thin-lipped smile is beyond me.
Hi guys please help to vote me as Philly's Hottest
Please go to http://photos.wmmr.com/gallery/album01?page=6 and vote for "DANIELLE"
Go to http://prestonandsteve.com/ for free podcasting of their show. They are the funniest guys in morning radio in Philadelphia and everywhere. They have listeners from all over! I promise just listen to one show and you'll be hooked! Gadzooks!
She's overpaid and needs to spend some of her millions on some collagen injections!!! Maybe that's why she sucks as an anchor….girl has no lips!!!!!
she's a lip-singing news reader…. i know they all read the news but she is so obvious you can't take her serious for a moment - reads like a 6 yr old
It does seem odd since Charlie Gibson and Brian Williams have their pusses on the tube with the candidates all the time. Katie Couric was loved in morning TV, but as soon as she ventured into sacred "man land" America turned on her. Same with Hillary. SNL was right — DOUBLE STANDARD. America is so juvenile.
thats not why! its because some months back Hillary got pissed off at MSNBC for airing a BULLSHIT story against her, and refused to do anymore debates on their channel….I suppose it might apply to Katie as well.
Who the hell cares about Katie Couric? She is soooooo overated! She holds her head on slant, she has a crooked smile, and she shows no personality at all! She's a dinosaur! Where are the new, young, "fresh" faces of TV journalism? Stick a fork in that bitch, she's done!
