18. i always felt cbs had the best news but never cared for dan rather. we have been watching kati couric for the past few months and i think she does an excellent job advising us of the news every night. her interviews are always interesting. she has something to say, give her some credit.

19. So an outdated hair cut that barely gives her any sort of new look is "a new do"? She should try a reverse mullett. That's really the new look for dumb old broads these days!!

20. Serious losers commenting here.

Katie Couric is the only watchable news anchor. Network news is pretty silly, but she does the best with it.

Are any of you losers able to criticize a woman without violent threats or insulting her looks. Your comments are laughed at and meaningless. Meanwhile, she's a millionaire and you don't have 2 cents to rub together. Get a brain and a life. Hate gets you nowhere.

21. Why don't they get some young, attractive talent to read the news? I mean, how hard is it to read a teleprompter? She should get Audrina Patridge to read it in the bikini she wears in the Carl Jr. commercials. That would bring ratings in!! Or, they could hire the Pratts and then have them quit 6 times. But, then again, no one would notice or care!!

25. She stinks as a newscaster.................

26. SHE IS A F****** WASTE OF SKIN AND AIR. THE SOONER SHE IS RELIGATED TO DAYTIME BILGE TV THE BETTER THIS PLANET WILL BE....SHE IS NEITHER A GOOD JOURNALIST NOR ANYTHING RESEMBLING A HOT FEMALE....I WOULDN'T F*** HER WITH YOUR D***

27. LOL !!!!!! Evereyone on here so far agrees she is a no talent wanta a be. Fox is the only place to get news, all others is just sensationalizm. The father of all news Walter Cronkite would be disgusted with her. They will ax her when the exec,'s are tired of her thanking them on her kness... Let's hope she stays so we can always get a nightly laugh as we channel surf on by.

28. It was cute how you liberal douches at TMZ wouldn't say her ratings are good, you would only say "they've improved" due to her hair duo. What, is she finally beating out reruns of Friends?

Actually Katie owes her entire pointless career to being a classless whore and sleeping her way up the ranks. But I doubt TMZ will ever report those facts.

29. She is one of a kind in my world.

30. Success? What success? she is the most unwatched news caster on the air her ratings are lower than keith olberman and that is low, Had she been successful by having a watched newscast I could see TMZ boasting but her ratings are so low she is soon to be fired for sure pending the end of her contract...
