| Couric Throws NBC Into âStorm Watchâ |
| 2004-02-27 |
| The tiny little bias queen with an ego worthy of Godzilla... Syrupy âTodayâ hostess Katie Couric has pitched NBC into a âstorm watchâ with vicious infighting that threatens the success of the entire network. A Page One story in this weekâs issue of the respected Broadcasting & Cable magazine features a most unflattering photo of Couric with the blazing headline âStorm Watch at Today.â The magazine confirms what insiders have been revealing for months: Ratings for âToday,â NBCâs most profitable program, are stagnating, outpaced by growth at ABCâs "Good Morning America" and CBSâs once-moribund "The Early Show," not to mention the booming popularity of FNCâs "Fox and Friends" on cable. Couric, the Peackock networkâs princess, is blaming everyone but herself. One NBC insider told B&C, âThe fear is that whatâs happening at Today is the beginning of all the wheels coming off.â And these are big wheels. The magazine says âthe stakes are hugeâ because "Today" generates almost $500 million in revenue for NBC News, the divisionâs fattest cash cow. ...more... |

| #13 I don't care what happens with her. I saw one interview with an American General (the name escapes me now) but that cunt needed a good slap on her worthless butt after that interview. It was shameful. But to be expected from those who don't respect our military and what they do for our nation. Apparently she doesn't know the word patriotism. |

| #12 KC's biggest problem is that she is boring, predictable and her interviews are biased. Other than that, she has a great show. It would just break my little heart if NBC kept her and flushed themselves down the tv toilet. |

| #11 11A5S - :) I agree - no one could be sexier than Sophia Loren (the ultimate Mother Earth symbol, IMHO) or Catherine Deneuve, both of whom personify your very apt description. You hit it on the head! Couric is a toxic bitch, IMHO - I'll leave why to therapists and wymyn to define! |

| #10 LOL, .com There is something about a middle-aged woman trying to act nubile that is offensive somehow. Others on this thread have tried to put their finger on it... prostitute, corpse-like, droopy. Just age with dignity and grace. There are plenty of women entertainers that seem to get it. From everything I've seen of Couric, she's too dumb to figure it out. |

| #9 "She one said on the air that oral sex 'demeans young girls'.." Freudian slip. |

| #8 Is she the middle-aged chyck who dresses and grooms and gets made-up like a late 19th century 12-year-old Russian prostitute She could never be a real prostitute. She one said on the air that oral sex "demeans young girls".. |

| #7 Maybe, just maybe people are waking up to her Bullshait Hillary-worshipping crap? That would explain their 'stagnating' ratings. Last I saw her on TV she looked like a streetwalking corpse. |

| #6 "She did get a colonoscopy on air, and suprisingly they didn't find anyone's foot up there." -true, but I heard they did find her head up there. |

| #5 That's the one Garrison, they still say she's "perky" but I think that anything that was perky on her now is probably droopy. She did get a colonoscopy on air, and suprisingly they didn't find anyone's foot up there. |

| #2 Katty Couric? Is she the middle-aged chyck who dresses and grooms and gets made-up like a late 19th century 12-year-old Russian prostitute; and sports an expression on her face giving her the appearance she is swallowing PUKE when she is tasked with interviewing a US military officer stationed in Iraq, a Christian or a Republican? |
