I don't get why everyone seems to hate Katie Couric so much. I like her! She's well-spoken, professional, prepared, intelligent, ambitious and stylish. I like the fact that she bombed the first time she went on national TV (the president of the network reportedly said he "never wanted to see her" doing national news again) and then went to some elocution coach to make her voice sound less peepy and juvenile. (If only
every white woman in America under the age of 50 would do that.) She's from my home town of Arlington, VA and is SO ARLINGTON (sensible, not "too" this or "too" that, civic, responsible, M.O.R.)So maybe I'm a bit biased. But how many women would have a colonoscopy on national TV? Huh? I stopped watching her on
Today because it just got so fluffy. I couldn't stand that bimbo Matt Lauer, and I found extremely offensive the ambulance-chasing, shoving microphones in grieving parents' faces that they were so fond of. Maybe she left the show to get away from that. I am looking forward to seeing her in the big chair - maybe I'll start watching the news again.
