The Lord sends us times like this to remind us how loathsome Katie Couric is

We just returned last week from a trip to NYC, where Katie Couric was outside the Today Show set posing for photos with fans after the show. I let my kids pose with her because they were excited to meet a celebrity, but I refrained on accounta I HATE KATIE COURIC!

“Are you going to punch me right in the middle of my vapid, smirking face?”

Shake-shake-shake.

IT IS DECIDEDLY SO

A while back, they had on that author whose husband cheated on her with a man, turned out to be gay, and now she was getting a divorce but talking about it all over the TV for lord knows what reason. Anywho, Katie actually asked her this question:

The bitch said GAYDAR! She claims to be a journalist and uses a phrase like GAYDAR! It boggles the mind!

Thank you for noticing. Goodness gracious I was wondering why the hell didn’t they preempt her with some real jour… wait, the real journalist was the one out in the field. AAAaaaargh!!!

She is yet another example of the dumbing down of 'merika.

Thank you. Thank you all. First good laugh I’ve had in days. Thank you.

Katie says hello.

Attack chipmunk.

In her ass.

Gaydar.

Dead mother.

–All in one thread. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Damn it, why isn’t my [FANTASY SEQUENCE] coding working? All I can get are those ripply wavelike things but Orlando doesn’t come into focus.

I see that :eek: and raise it a :eek: :eek:

God bless Kate Couric’s little heart.

(see, Sampiro, I learned something from you! :smiley: )

Nothing like a bracing dash of vitriol! Pip, pip, Sampiro, good show, that!

Oh no you didunt.

Shit. The above won’t cost me my spot in the Brigade will it?

Chipmonk? I thought that was a deep-fat friar. :stuck_out_tongue:

I have never understood why Katie Couric has a job.

I have always found her to be dull and uninteresting.

The fact that she is a host on one of the most popular TV shows tells me that the demographic she pulls in must have the IQ of a turnip.
BTW, what did Harry Connick say to her asshat question? I love Harry.

:smiley:

He just answered with the fates of his family. (All accounted for, though most had had to evacuate and lost their homes; he’s getting a LOT of houseguests.)

Man, what a house that is…with his beautiful wife there and all that music.

But her husband, you know, died, man. How can you be so cruel?

In case Katie is wondering, I have no family anywhere near the devestation, and my father died when I was 13.

So, ya know, he was not effected by Katrina. Just wanted to clear that up.

I heard the most disturbing thing on the August 28 SETI Podcast . . . Seems that publishers are cutting back on science coverage because they have a hard time getting advertisers. Seems they feel that readers who are interested in science are too smart to make decisions based on advertising.

So, I guess that means that dumb demographics are desirable.

In case anyone from NBC is wondering, I used to watch the Today Show fairly often. Then they started letting Couric “interview” and now I lunge for the remote.
