Katie Couric

By Tim Graham The standard for Palin's God and faith is love, generosity, mercy and forgiveness. Perhaps that's what she means when she says she is "Going Rogue." Did God plan for her to do the Katie Couric and Charlie Gibson interviews and be humiliated by them. Did God plan for her to allow herself to be for...

By Terry Trippany That is the crux of it really. Sarah Palin, that microcosm of a "certain part of America" is impacting the ability of Barak Obama to implement his agenda. Her and others like her have come out of their holes to stop Mr. unstoppable.This makes them mad. Won't they just go away?

By NB Staff Take a look at some extra video footage from the latest episode of NewsBusters’ Notable Quotables comedy show. CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric interviewing former Vice President Al Gore provided us with so much joke material we couldn’t fit it all in.

By Kyle Drennen At the top of Monday’s CBS Evening News, anchor Katie Couric teased a story on the President’s trip to China by casting him as Reaganesque: “Mr. Hu, tear down that firewall. President Obama challenges China’s government to allow unfettered access to the internet.”

By Scott Whitlock From Couric interview] KATIE COURIC: What specifically, I'm curious? ROBERTS: I know. She is. Going Rogue. And she was very critical of the McCain aides. What's been their reaction? ROBERTS: That is a tease. She is teasing us. Okay. We'll see you.

By Tim Graham In an unorthodox move, The Washington Post on Tuesday published two book reviews of Sarah Palin's Going Rogue -- one by liberal Ana Marie Cox of Air America radio, and one by conservative Matthew Continetti of the Weekly Standard.

By Clay Waters Hmm. Barack Obama was sworn in to the U.S. Senate in January 2005. In February 2007 he announced his candidacy for president of the United States.

By Noel Sheppard Look, I was speaking to Nicole Wallace, who was accused of coming up with some weird story for why Sarah Palin would go speak to Katie Couric. According to Palin, Wallace had said that Katie Couric had low self-esteem, and that`s why, I guess out of some sympathy, she should do the interview.

By Noel Sheppard Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin claims in her soon to be released book that the reason she let Katie Couric interview her was because she felt sorry for the CBS "Evening News" anchor: Nicolle went on to explain that Katie really needed a career boost. "She just has such low self-esteem,"...

By Julia A. Seymour Even CBS was skeptical on Oct. 29 when Chip Reid told Katie Couric, "if the administration`s first effort at counting stimulus jobs is any guide, tomorrow`s numbers could be hard to believe." (See fellow Newsbuster Noel Sheppard's post)

By Julia A. Seymour Katie Couric heaped praise on CARS saying Aug. 3, "[S]ales reports out today show the Cash for Clunkers program gave U.S. automakers a much-needed jumpstart." While CNBC's Jim Cramer called it "money well-spent" during the "Today" show.

By Mark Finkelstein Katie Couric has demanded "humility" from Wall Streeters making seven-figure incomes.  This from a woman pulling down . . . eight figures [an estimated $15 million/year] from CBS while cementing the Evening News' caboose status.

By Tim Graham At least someone suggested Boswell not go "Katie Couric" on the audience and talk about their personal life. This is not the first time Boswell's lit into Limbaugh. From a Brent Bozell column in 2000 when ABC considered adding Limbaugh to the Monday Night Football broadcast booth:
