Tonight on CBS: Not A-Rod

Barbara Walters must be turning over in her grave ... oh, right. Anywho....

Katie Couric was leaving a building in Manhattan yesterday when Alex Rodriguez spotted her from across the street and waved her over to chat -- and Katie declined the offer.

Katie, CBS, line 2!

Good for Katie - she doesn't care about gossipy news and she also doesn't want to become PART of gossip like "Katie seen having seductive lunch with A-Hole". Honestly, it is NOT real news, people!

Absolutely Katie did the right thing. She works as anchor for CBS evening news; she doesn't cover celebrity gossip. It' not the Today show. She would have made herself look weak and stupid if she gave any time or attention to something so inane. It doesn't compare to the journalistic savvy and gumption she showed during an impromptu interview with the first Pres Bush. THAT is what Katie does.

Seriously:  1307 days ago

Sheeeesh guys, she was done for the day......clocked out.....on her way home sucking on candy! Is that really sooooo bad?!? She has a nice sit down job, where all the running work is done for her by other people! She admitted, herself, that she is out of shape, as far a impromtu interviews go - that why she does........whatever it is that she does.

OR MAYBE - she didn't want to be put in the position of where she didn't want to have an "off the record" conversation. Maybe she didn't want to bla bla bla what he would have said to her and expect her NOT to air it.......
