| | Myrna Blyth on Katie Couric on National Review Online |
 | | I'll bet Katie Couric never expected to get the smackdown she received on Monday morning in the pages of the New York Times, inevitably her paper of choice. |
 | | Now that the Times has assessed Katie as a liability and concluded that Today needs a lot less of her, won't it be fascinating to watch how a panicky, profit-obsessed NBC responds to such on-the-mark criticism. |
 | | Myrna Blyth, long-time editor of Ladies Home Journal and founding editor of More, is author of Spin Sisters: How the Women of the Media Sell Unhappiness and Liberalism to the Women of America. |
