I never really cared for her as an evening broadcaster, but...

I just don't get why some people are so amped-up over this. Doesn't seem like any of you were watching her broadcasts at all. It's not like she will be replaced by someone you will like. And, even if you did like her replacement, you wouldn't watch that network's news anyway...

You're right. They could replace her with Bozo the Clown and I don't think you'd see much a difference. In quality or rating share.

Exactly what agenda are you referring to? Evening news-lite that often has some minimal entertainment value for some people?

I know you disagree with what you believe her personal politics to be, but so what. If some people enjoy watching her, why is it so important to those who don't watch her to see her gone?

What is it about her that has been so bad or so evil to provoke hatred and anger?

I'm with Robert on this one. Don't like it...don't watch it. Who cares what her "perceived" agenda is? Not sure where all the hatred and the fury is coming from. As I said above...Who the hell watches the Evening News anymore?

I thought she was a moderately cute, perky, fun perona on the Today Show. I knew from the outset that she wouldn't ever make it as a news anchor.

what do you mean by "extremist"?
How is she one?

Seconded. I've never heard her called "extremist" before, but I don't watch the program so I can't say.

Robert, you remind me of my son. He asks the darnest questions as well. Don't how to begin w/o a drink and cigar in hand... Why is the sky blue, dad? ...and yes, I know the answer to that. LOL

Suffice to say that if you can't recognize her extreme left wing views as extremist, you is one.
Same thing with followers of Rush, Soros, etc.

That's a poor philosophy. I could say the same about anyone and anything. Here, let me make up something... "if you don't think George Bush is an alien from space, then YOU are an alien from space." Now refute that. Oh you want ME to prove it? Yeah, that's something an alien would say.

Provide proof of some sort, or an article supporting your assertion and maybe I'll change my mind about her being an "extremist." I think she is left-leaning, but I don't see any evidence of her falling over so to speak.

George Bush hasn't done or said anything to prove he isn't an alien from outer space.
Couric opens her mouth & continually confirms what she is. I don't believe she holds ANY belief that is conservative.
As I said, if you don't see the obvious, it's because you've adapted it for your own.

She has none. You win. She's as mainstream and middle of the road as Cronkite reporting on the "disastrous" Tet offensive which as it later turned out was a total catastrophe for the invading North Vietnamese.

There are none so blind as those who will not see. I wouldn't know where to begin. (seriously)

I'll let someone with more ardor & better memory for Couric's malapropisms and (intentional?) inaccuracies take up the flag and answer your (and Robert's question). All I know is that when I watched her twaddling on the Today show or interviewing the equally provincial Palin, I would just shrug my shoulders in disbelief as she let her left wing extremism (IMO) chart the course. She doesn't have a conservative nor middle of the road bone in her diminutive body. Does she?

Man you go from one extreme to the other. Maybe you are the extremist :-"

I never said she was unbiased. I said she was left leaning. And no I don't think she is journalist in the true sense of the word. There are only a handful of those left on TV anymore--the rest are entertainers. That is a big problem by the way. That entertainment can be labeled, marketed, and delivered as authentic news. It's causing greater polarization and it's only hurting America. Now we have the right calling the left extremist (cough cough), the left calling the right extremist (I just did it a paragraph ago 😇 ) and really no one wins by this.

By the way, if you ever want to argue about her liberal tilt, here's a great(ish) site:
