Gone In WEEKS?????
Tick tock. Tick tock.
As we mentioned yesterday, Katie Couric is pretty much set to leave the anchor desk at CBS by the end of the presidential election cycle.
However, in Friday's New York Times it was revealed that close associates of Couric say she could be leaving within the next two weeks!
That you hear is the sound of the door hitting her on the ass. Hard.
Senior level execs at CBS, of course, denied that claim. We'll just have to sit back and see how all this drama is going to play out, but the NYT is pretty damn reliable!
Oh, and the speculation that Couric will take over for Larry King on CNN in '09? Well, that was disputed in the Times article by a CNN spokeswoman. They will probably extend the old guy's contract!
Good to see that ageism isn't a problem at CNN!

She Won't Shut Up
Late Night Bloodbath
About damn time! Can't wait to see what she plans to fuck up - I mean, do - next…
She's not that great. BYE BYE!!!
No, ageism is only a problem at perezhilton.com.
good luck katie…..journalism is hard….i know i am a journalism student….
wow that sucks
she's probably regretting the decision
BIG TIME
katie can go hang out with star jones.
She is pretty. I just saw her pretty profile on 'milliona irefri ends com' yesterday, including her hot photos. Is she trying to develop a relationship there?
BORING!!
Seriously check out that story on Liberalati, a new online news and culture magazine for independents, greens and libertarians.
it must be hard for her, american journalism is a male dominated firm. just think about it, there's men who have been working for cbs over 70 years probably.
hope she gets out and finds an even better job so she can be like fuck you cbs.
Howard Stern TOLD her this would happen when she left the today show. Howard is the KING and she should have listened to him!
I just couldn't take her as a serious journalist - obviously other agree with me. She'll be back on a.m. tv reporting on diets & celebs soon.
I'm glad zo leaving…zhe waz apart of that
mean NBC that took my favorite soap..
”””””””””””' pazzionz ””””””””””””””””””””

She's washed up anyway!!!
Re: Braintype – YOU ARE A FUCKING LOSER,AND EVERY ONE AT YOUR FUCKED UP SITE
SHE LOOKS LIKE A WEIRDO.
THE AMERICAN PRESS HAD HAD A HARD ON FOR HER SINCE IT WAS ANNOUCED SHE WOULD HOST THE EVENING NEWS.
ALL THE PRESS SHIT WAS ABOUT FEMALE READING THE NEWS, U BURIED HER B3 SHE AIRED HER FIRST SHOW, SAD BECAUSE SHE DOES HAVE THE INTELLIGENCE AND BACKGROUND TO DO THE JOB. I HOPE CBS HAS TO PAY HER FULL SALARYFOR THE DURATION OF HER CONTRACT AND THAT SHE LAUGHS HER ASS OFF ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.
Katie looks like she hasn't had a GOOD SCREWING in a very long time - the best would be a BIG BLACK COCK — would do wonders for her ratings also
I would eat ten miles of her poop just to see where it came from!!
I am so ugly and porky.
I dont think its Katie's fault…I agree with you Pez……CBS is like old people ville……….I think if Katie was put in a different environment it would be different!
She'd make a great host on QVC!
Re: Astro –
Maybe Michelle Obama can give her a nice whipping with her "big black cock"
anyone else see the resemblance between Couric and Chuckie?
It's not because she's a woman. It's because she's Katie Couric. She's a bitch. I've never liked her. It's about time she left. She sucks. The Today Show is so much better with Meredith Viera.
She is a liberal pig that needed to be taught a lesson. Reporting on the news is one thing. Reporting the news with your sickening very obvious opinion is quite another. Buh Bye!
damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
holy shite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn it, Perez, don't report this! CBS will probably keep that stupid twit around longer now just to prove you and all the other media outlets wrong!! And that makes me mad, because I want her gone!
Perez, I love you. And I usually agree with you on stuff. But I MUST disagree with you on one thing…The New York Times it HIGHLY unreliable. I wouldn't trust anything they print.
Ageism…seems to be OK to have older men on the air, to convey authority and trustedness. But try finding any older women anywhere, who don't look as if they are no older than their mid-30s, except if they are directly involved in the story? None that come to mind.
Oops, forgot to day, I agree totally with LuvPerez, the NYT is not reliable as a news source. They're more concerned with writing the news to fit their viewpoint, than what journalism has historically done, report events objectively and be fair to all sides.
Wow! That's either overly retouched or TOO much Botox. Give it a rest girl!
What a yawn fest she's been on the nightly news. She should stick to daytime, or maybe 48 Hours-Hard Evidence.
I've hated her since the Today show. She's ignorant and opinionated - Perez you had a hilarious video up a few months ago which shows how clueless she was about the political candidates. She passes as a talk show host, but not a newsperson. All the other anchors and even people like Barbara Walters are passionate about the news and built their careers interviewing terrorists and reporting from dangerous places. Maybe they should hire Dan Rather back.
Wow! She's overly retouched or TOO much Botox. Give it a rest girl!
BIMBO NEEDS TO GET BIGGER TITS AND POSE NUDE "" SOMEWHERE "".
Seriously, all I'm seeing is sexism here. It's not as if she is bad at reporting the news, it is just that people cannot get the hell over a female doing it on cable. Sad thing is, I doubt many people are even realizing how sexist they are.
Too much hate and disrespect on this site. Makes my stomach hurt!
Bring Dan Rather back!!
Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee… can't wait for this douchebag to be off the air… couldn't stand her on Today.. hated her doing the news… you suck Couric!!! YOU SUCK BIG TIME
How nuts was CBS to pay this tart $15 million????????????????
over paid under talented
Katie is great, actually (no, I never watched her on Today..) = the real problem is CBS and the CBS format.
Just not the right alignment for her.
I think she would really pick up speed as a correspondant for ABC or NBC. I realize she wants a stable schedule because of her daughters, but perhaps a step in another direction will bring back the respect.. before it is too late…
GOOD BYE She sucked anyway…….Maybe she can get off the networks and go to cable tv……….She is boring and the ratings or lack of them proves it.
God please DO NOT GIVE HER A TALK SHOW are you kidding me ?
I notice that Julie Chen who is married to the Head Honcho (first she had an affair with, then got promoted married to) Les Moonves. Anyway, while Katie
works for Les Moonves he gives her to boot. Yet, he keeps his wife
on at the Early Show with dismal 3rd place ratings. It must suck working
for CBS News. The CEO is the world biggest bastard. How dare he bring Katie onboard and fire her while he lets Julie Chen bring in the worst ratings on the Early Show. CBS Sucks!
Can't happen soon enough, you partisan b*tch!
I'd hit it
the same reliable new york times that printed erroneous dan rather stories, john mccain non existent affairs and buries progress in Iraq in the back of the paper??
its a liberal rag that has lost its lustre. its a sad, sad state at the grey lady. they used to be "all the news that is fit to print" now its all the news that the liberal media POS's decide they feel like printing w/o fact checking. how long did it take the liberal media to catch on to the barack obama reverend wright story? they were FORCED into it.
oh goodie, now they can put another white old waspy man in the chair.
katie is GREAT- unfortunately americans had a hard time adjusting to her as a newcaster with gravitas. i equate it to jim carrey, we love him —but we really want to see him in comedies, not in grave movies. i dont want to see steve carrell cast as the next alexander the great either.
Are you FN kidding me the new york times is reliable!!!!!!!!!!!
Whackkkkkk…..the door IS hitting her ass.
When you are getting 15 million a year, you better be prepared to deliver and she didn't.
Have no fear, she'll write a book, hop on the promotional circuit or better yet start an exclusive school for aspiring young WOMEN in television. She may not be sitting in the anchor chair but she'll do alright.
She was the wrong person for the job!!!
Guess she couldn't make the leap from fluffy, perky, shit-eating-grin, morning show host to serious journalist. Why am I not surprised? Duh!
~
I hope she didn't ruin the chance for a real female journalist to have a shot at that job…
Carry your ultra-liberal ass Katie!!!!!!
You got to feel for her. CBS never gave her a chance.
Stop with the goddam liberal talk! There really is no such thing anymore. I know, you all listen to what Mann Coulter and Limbaugh says. Mann is a fucking insane nazi. Getting back to you right wing facsists–YOU are the ones who are wrong and believe the LIES Bu$h co tell you. These people will fry in hell for what they did–lying about the war and people dying as a result.
I could see Couric as the perfect replacement for Larry King when his time comes.
She needs her own gig. The Katie Couric show. I like her.
she is sooooo boring to watch……..
"… the NYT is pretty damn reliable"?!? Get a clue.
Wouldn't it be funny if the person who moved her over into a position that was not suitable for her overly "giggly" and gushing style lost his job too?
She is so boring so no big loss.
Re: kumquat – What is your problem? Stick to the topic. If you want to rant, then write a letter to Bush and mail it to the White House… please, get over yourself…
cbs should have kept dan rather. poor move
Katie is regretting NOTHING !!!! She has a contract that pays her a BAZILLION dollars !!!! Now she can stay home with her kids and do whatever she wants. CBS still has to pay her !!! I'm jealous !!!
let her go n fuck star jones
not a BAZILLION dollars….just $15 MILLION a year…for 5 years…
VERY NICE!
Ageism isn't a problem at CNN… only sexism.
The media loved her because she looked like the younger version of KRISTY MCNICHOL.
NOT ANYMORE!
It's CBS's fault in the 1st place for putting the perky Katie Couric in a serious news position, coming from her poptart Today show. She is not, and never has been, a serious news reporter; she's just a celebrity.
Good-bye, Katie! You can't out-cute a pink slip!
Chill out Bitches Katie's not through yet. She'll show em all.!
I love Katie Couric and I've been following her career for many years. I'm still her biggest fan and my heart belongs to her. If she leaves CBS, I hope she jumps to something even better. I still have faith in her.
