And for this she gets paid $15 million a year:
The only thing that’s “Tiffany” about the former Tiffany Network is the salaries it pays to its employees.
Wonder if her beloved Obama thinks she’s reached the point where she’s made enough money?

GREAT!
Just what I need.
A lecture from a woman who has shown the world her colon.
It really is getting harder, and harder to take any of those people seriously.
What core American values does she have? She's just one more over paid progressive!
It's a good thing I have Katie around to tell me what to think, or I wouldn't know what to do!
And of course, she knows absolutely 100% sure that he's a Christian, because…well…SHE JUST DOES DAMMIT!
Eat sh-t Katie.
Hey, Katie, ask me if I care what you think? Just because you're a blind koolaid drinker doesn't make the 18% wrong?
If you take into account Couric's intellectual prowess, her commentary and depth of knowledge it's difficult to conclude that she's worth more than $15 per telecast.
"Cornball Katie Couric"—
When will you stop masquerading, as a serious journalist
and realize everybody, including your "colleagues" at CBS
consider you an "vapid,irritating joke"?
No fat paycheck can buy you an ounce of credibility or class.
Why didn't you interview the credible & classy, Deborah Burlingame,
instead of acting so high & mighty?
You, conveniently, left out the request of "moving the mosque",
out of respect for the tragedy.
Simply put-
they can EASILY change the location…
We CAN"T change 9-11 !!!
I'm not sure she's worth even that much.
That said, I'd do her job for $15 / day. I wouldn't have to work very hard:
(cue the lead-in)
"Now here's Saul Good with the news…"
Me: "Folks, it's all bad."
She loves Margaret Sanger. Has a picture of old Bitter Blood in her office. Ain't that grand?
What drivel, but note the inherent agreement with those of you here who merely object to it in this LOCATION. If you are going to hold them collectively responsible, then do so. Otherwise, you can't pick and choose.
Is she still on the air?
she- and the rest of the Progressive elite care not a whit about you- or their ratings…
It's like they know something we don't- like in they will survive the Coming Changes while the rest of us scamble to find food and shelter. Like they know the 'rabblerousers' on the internet and talk radio will go away. Like they just somehow have a certainty that their little enclaves will be spared somehow.
Why are multi-millionaires spending $20- 30- 100 million on Senate runs? Like they know the fiat currency they are spending will be worth little to nothing soon and the US Senate is a nice, safe place to 'wait things out' in a secured underground location somewhere?
Like they KNOW something. And we don't…
Don't worry Katie. We all know that what Obama truly worships is neither God nor Allah, but his own artificially inflated self-image.
I don't think he's a Muslim, but I don't think it matters either. After all, if he were a confirmed Muslim, could he be doing any more damage to our foreign policy and our country than he is already?
These people are barking at the moon and the ratings show it.
“There is a debate to be had about the sensitivity of building this center so close to ground zero.”
Soooo Katie, when are you going to take on that challenge???? You project your image as if you’re some above-the-grade journalist. How about proving it for once.
Crickets……in three…..two……one…………
Thought so. Katie Couric: Another shining example of the hypocrisy coming from the liberal main stream media retards.
I guess Katic Coarselips thinks because shes a news anchor she must know it all. Katie Coarselips, what makes you think ur so brilliant? Certainly not your "ideas". Dont worry Katie-Even Mr Soreass wont have enough room left to "employ" you, he can only handle so many dolts.
"Just what I need.
A lecture from a woman [Couric] who has shown the world her colon. "
the most amazing thing about that video-\
they got realllly deep and still never found her head.
Saul(1) youd do the news better (2) you dont need George the SoreAss to tell you what to say.
Walter would be proud.
Careful, you'll be targeted as a racist.
Myself I'll just say it's more like cynicism…
Have cut out the television news, I'll wait until they begin with the fair and unbalanced reporting like the did back in the day…
I guess Katie still thinks she's relevant?
Now that was really funny!
Too late.
I'm already labeled, by them all.
Racist, sexist, homophope.
You name it, they have slung it all my way.
I'm just not a pornographer.
Watching a woman squirm with a camera up her rectum, is too much for even me to bear………
Merely object to it in this location?
Good grief. Take the dunce cap off. Merely? Try SOLELY. Solely the LOCATION is what is objectionable.
P.S. Sharia Law? Kiss my arse.
When you hit bottom, aren't you supposed to stop digging.
I don't think I have watched CBS news in decades, why waste your time. Walter Crankcase did it for me.
Constant Barack Shillers (CBS) still has a News Program???? I thought the show with Katie was CBS's Version of the Jon Stewart show, no facts by a talentless comedian. My Bad.
The really funny thing about Katie Couric that EVERYONE know, with the exception of her, is that she is NOT a journalist. She is a "Teleprompter Reader."
Remind you of anyone else?
I'm sure I will live to see colleges giving four year degrees for teleprompter reading, facial expressions and feigned sincerity.
Yep, they need to move it to
6969 Droptrouser Rd.
Blowme, NY.
They DID find Jimmy Hoffa up there though…
January 10, 2010
To the editor and Mrs. Couric:
Recently the United States suffered yet another attempted act of war from a terrorist acting on the misguided notion of jihad. This particular fellow evaded airport security, then while seated on the aircraft attempted to detonate a bomb in addition to the fuel tank positioned below him. The jihadist’s failure was a result of a lack of preparation; neither his will nor our efforts to keep him off the plane did anything to ameliorate his plans. This jihadist, like many who have attacked this nation in the past, are men educated in mind and not in morals, and as such are a menace to civil society, and must be stopped at any cost. After 30 years of the free world trying to stop various forms of jihad we are no closer to stopping the next attack because the ideology that creates the next radical Islamic terrorist still exists; so long as it exists we will neither have peace nor security – nothing short of a regional war that redraws the boundaries of countries in the middle east will bring us the opportunity of lasting peace. Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan did not alter their evil plans upon the sight of a TSA agent. That said; a small suggestion.
Credit card companies monitor spending behavior to detect fraud. They do this by setting limits based on historic spending patterns, and computers monitor daily transactions to detect purchases that may be fraudulent. For instance, if I make a few small purchases in one geographic area and then drive many miles away and make much larger purchases the credit card company will deny the charge, and request that the merchant verify my identity. Why is it that a credit card company is motivated enough to monitor, successfully detect, and challenge potentially malfeasant behavior? Further, why is it that the Transportation Safety Administration is unable to detect a known explosive attached to the genitalia of a known threat, and is unable to stop future malfeasant behavior? In a word – profit. The credit card company is trying to maintain profits by limiting its losses by devising ingenious ways of detecting fraud to protect that profit, the TSA does not operate for the purpose of profit.
The Transportation Safety Administration has a completely different standard to meet and it must do so by engaging in willful blindness to threats in order to accomplish its mission without raising the ire of the ACLU. Thus, precious security detection resources that could be directed to more plausible threats must be redirected to less likely threats in order to satisfy the politically correct among us. For the same reason my local police department does not set up sobriety check points near our local churches or temples the TSA ought to spend more time looking for the telltale signs of jihad from likely sources. This recent attempt was a no brainer, our security apparatus had everything but a red alert warning from the starship Enterprise before this fellow made it to the airport gate even sans passport; if we can’t stop this guy we can’t stop anyone.
If an airline operated a system akin to my credit card companies in the atmosphere of airport security what would that look like? Might a pre-flight approval system consist of various credentials already in a citizens possession; a system for non-citizens would perform the same function of verification with cross referenced forms of identification, the elimination of the option of using cash to purchase a ticket, and the elimination of purchasing a ticket without being pre-qualified to do so in the first place. In addition, the airline would be responsible for all security; remember the $50 Billion per year TSA could not stop this jihadist, and frankly in a world where people willingly swallow prophylactics filled with narcotics to breech our drug laws, the TSA will not stop the next one; an airline that is one hundred percent responsible for the occupants and operation of the aircraft can and will. They will have the ability to reject people who do not meet their flight criteria identity policy in a way that the TSA is forbidden from by organizations like the ACLU. The profit driven airline can drive the innovation that will be required to detect individuals whose behavior is suspicious even before a ticket is purchased by combing all the data points that separate out frequent travelers from those that have never flown, or are traveling in a manner not consistent with past patterns, and thus require more scrutiny at security checkpoints prior to boarding the plane. In fact much like credit cards issue a FICO score in some future world they may have a central organization for all airlines that compiles this information and issues an “Approved Travel Score.”
last paragraph:
In closing, it is almost treasonous that after so many kicks to our collective complacency we are still only fighting the last battle, and not the next one. Securing an aircraft is best left up to the airline and the crew of the airplane, and not the federal government. The private airline possesses the incentive to maintain the safety of the airplane that the TSA and the rest of the security apparatus lacks. The federal government lacks the economic incentive to do a quality job, but the private airline is nimble and can evolve the policies and procedures the government is not permitted or politically unable to do. The current setup seems to serve only one purpose – to avoid responsibility for anything at all, in that atmosphere you can bet we are going to lose much more then an airliner in the future. The radical Islamic threat from 1979 to 2010 has grown stronger, and developed a greater reach into the west then our side has developed a defense or plan to defeat; we are fooling ourselves if we think a watch list, that no one even bothers to check, is anything more than a placebo for the cancerous philosophy of radical Islam.
That is what a four year degree at a liberal university is for – instruction on how to convincingly lie. Obama got an A+!
This Anti American Bi-atch is so out of touch she does not even understand the controversy and she has to interview people to find out why they oppose a Mosque being built next to a site where the largest most important buildings in America were brought to the ground by people shouting Allah Akbar.
Now how many is it that tune in to CBS Nightly Lecture? Three two year olds that accidentally sat on the remote control?
CBS must be trying to see how low their ratings can go.
And the Lame Stream media wonders why they are losing viewers? They lost me years ago. Bunch of Bozos!
The location isn't the issue alone since there are businesses there. You object to this "thing" in this location. But if the "thing" you regard as responsible it is pretty childish to let it be else where. You must choose.
If CBS wants to pay Couric that much, more power to them. It IS mystifying, however, in view of the ratings. Ya think they're profiting some other way?
Could I complain about the low quality trolls at the Big sites?
This guy Smedley is not even worth a chuckle.
If someone is paying him, they need to stop.
Actually the inane drivel has come from the left. Sharia law violates every principle that progressives have claimed to hold dear, yet progressives line up to defend what the planners of this "community center" (that has no community in the area) call a foothold for Sharia law. Progressives tell us that the mosque isn't a mosque even though the planners of the mosque quite clearly call it the Ground Zero Mosque. Progressives tell us that the mosque that isn't a mosque but is really a community center even though there's no islamic community in the area. Progressives tell us this mosque really isn't ground zero even though the building was damaged when the landing gear from American Airlines Flight 11blasted through the north face of the North WTC Tower and landed on the roof of 51 Park.
SmelleyB, would you be as fervent a defender of this project if one of the few icons the left holds holy were threatened by the construction – like say an Abortion Clinic? My highly informed opinion is no, you and your sister progressives would be on the streets shrieking and wetting your panties over the horror of your citadel of progressivism being removed.
My question to you SmelleyB – will you defend the rights of other religions you don't believe in like you do this one? Will you defend my childrens right to sing Christmas Carol's with as much fervor as you defend Islamists rights to mutilate and murder their daughters? Can my jewish friends wear a yamulka in school while your Islamist friends maim and slaughter homosexuals?
My only
Hey gang, this is the truth: Obama is a Christian.
The only reason he doesn't attend church that often is because it really pisses him off to see Christ getting all the worship, attention and adoration.
It ruins Barry's entire golf game that day. He tends to slice the ball and can't putt for jack when he's that upset!
Joan Lunden will allways employ you as a head coffee getter Kitty. Just like the good o'l days, yes.
You forgot to add the part about wanting to exterminate unicorns.
She's tried that, didn't help.
Joe, you made a great presentation here. K+ to ya'.
On the other hand, you could have said a for-profit system competing in the private-sector would better serve us and be done with it, but that's me being picky. Continue the mission my good man. Well said.
Her contract is up this fall. Word on the newser site is that she is toast. The total audience share died on her watch so they can't afford to pay $15 million to lose. CBS has let a lot of people go and even the insiders are complaining that not paying Katie would have allowed them to hire 70 other workers who could have contributed real content.
She's on borrowed time. Her contract is not going to be renewed this fall. This is her last gasp.
If you are unable to see that the vast majority of opponents object to the location, not the construction, its only because your brain is too small to fully comprehend the information your senses collect and send to it for processing.
She'll be gone this fall.
Buh Bye, Miss Perky……you'll be long forgotten when President Palin is winning her second term…..haha……..
Sympathy for the unemployed that is about to be empathy for the unemployed. Her contract is up this fall and won't be renewed. Katie is going to be let go.
Agreed. Mr. Breitbart deserves a much better class of trolls.
put Megyn Kelly in that chair, and let her be herself, and CBS' ratings go to the top.
digging? are you referring to the colonoscopy series they had during sweeps week?
that's why i call them lieberals.. seems so natural, doesn't it?
I've been complaining out the low quality of trolls for months now and nothing. Deaf ears from the Bigs. Sometimes I wonder if this place is seen as a troll shelter where even the most downtrodden and ineffectual trolls can come and post a comment, no matter how incoherent or lacking in pith.
I've never thought about it before, but just how does one go about attracting a better class of troll?
Most of them around can do little more than call us all idiots. That's not even an attempt at humor.
Perhaps we should start some sort of contest to come up with ideas for attracting trolls that are at least fun to poke.
Wouldn't that be cannibalism?
I love how Katie tells us that the "Unmask the Mosque" sign needs no interpretation, because she's already figured it out for us and is about to tell us what it means and no one else is allowed to think differently. What self-important, fatuous twaddle. This is the cheapest of cheap shots.
They aren't objecting to the location, they are objecting to the construction of something AT that location ONLY because the buzz-word "Muslim" is associated with it. Would they object to a Hillel center there?
Of course not, but then again it wasn't Jews that took out the WTC and killed 3,000 Americans.
The developers have the right to build there. I've heard very few voices who want the government to step in and stop it. Just because you have the right to be a douche bag doesn't mean it's right to be a douche bag.
If they would simply move a few blocks away, this entire issue would be over. Since they refuse to even consider it, that proves they want to be douche bags. And while its not against the law to be a douche bag, it does come with consequences. And what you're seeing are the consequences of being douche bags.
If you can't see that I can only surmise that you are a douche bag too.
So, now you are cornered. You think Muslims are collectively responsible for 9/11. So, again, your objection seems pretty weak to focus on this incident – why aren't you supporting rounding them up and deporting them all? Which is it?
If only she was at least attractive. She ain't MY Mama! And she ain't my schoolteacher. I think Katie just doesn't like white people.
That's putting it mildly:) It's best not to succumb to the vitriol, but sometimes it just happens.
All Muslims?
No.
This particular Muslim with his connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and through them to Al Qaeda?
Yes.
I'm not cornered in the least. You are simply being a douche bag, which is probably why you agree with douche bags.
And attempting to color me as a racist, bigoted douche bag is pretty weak in of itself.
What I believe you're trying to do is inflame commenters around here into making outrageous statements, so that in the future, who ever pay's you 15 cents a comment can look back to them as proof our virtual community is nothing racists.
Guess what douche bag, you brought up rounding up Muslims which means you've just completely failed at your sophomoric tactics.
Shall we take a little trip in the way back machine Sherman? When was the last times Americans rounded up people based upon bigotry? Lets see, FDR with the Japanese? Democrats. How About Andrew Jackson with the Trail of Tears? Democrats. How about slavery? Democrats. How about Jim Crow laws? Democrats.
You bigots on the left are the ones who are all for rounding up communities and destroying them.
Normally I'd say stick that in your pipe and smoke it, but it's not a good idea to smoke while your head is up your ass.
What is truly sad is that she actually receives a salary. It is not surprising that the alphabet networks are losing viewers with an opinionist like her.
Come On Smedley B
You know you want to say it….
We know you want to say it….
Just let it out….
It'll make you feel better….
Ok I'll say it for you….
IT'S THE FAULT OF THE JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSS!
That's better isn't it?
MyKu:
Viewing her Notebook
for insight is like reading
Anne Frank for guffaws.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Interesting that a number of libtards apparently do both.
The free market hath spoken!
Well if they did Obama they would find her there.
I haven't watched Abc, Nbc, Cbs news in years. Why? Whatever they say is right I see as wrong. Whatever I see as Wrong they see as right. No reason getting the blood pressure up.
Hey everyone, don't worry. No one is really watching CBS news. What's more: she has a gummy smile. Oof.
This MSM is much like Obama; niether one of them can run a business (unless it's into the ground)!
Along with most of the media….
…unless it gets subsidized by taxpayers.
That clip gave me the chills. There wasn't much left for Couric to say that could shock me but this definitely did. The dripping condescension toward her viewers and complete, unmitigated snobbery in this monologue is frightening. I feel like I need to take a long hot shower just to cleanse myself of her venom.
Ms. Couric –
I, and countless other Americans, would be more than happy to drive the scope for your next colonoscopy.
Perhaps she provides the execs with certain favors……Ouch, that makes my brain hurt.
The only thing Katie has going for her is a nice set of bazonga's. Now that I think of it, that's where her brains are.
a woman who married into her job
SmedleyB, i'm assuming your monicker is in reference to Smedley Butler. quit smearing the good name of the Marine Corps and our heroes from the past with your liberal drivel. if you were ever a Marine, how did you come to think the way you do? you must have been a POG who never actually interacted with Muslims…
Summer interns. The *regular trolls* are running around Obama's Vacation Complex fetching drinks and doing the food tasting, blowing up beach balls, you know – wait staff.
Couric's next job will be as Rachel Maddow's side kick over at MSNBC
CBS is on the way to the crapper. I will willingly help FLUSH Katie Couric and the rest of the Progressive/Marxist Morons down the drain. Counting the days.
I wish they paid her $200 million per year. Sooner they go under the better.
