Courting Katie Couric - Aug 16, 2001 - E! Online News AOL Time Warner honcho Gerald Levin met with Couric in New York in March and pitched her all kinds of ventures utilizing the corporate behemoth's assets, from a regular gig on the Web to news specials on CNN to replacing Rosie O'Donnell when the comedian bows out next year. The courtship of Couric has gotten so intense that DreamWorks honchos Jeffrey Katzenberg and Steven Spielberg went so far as to commission a video--reportedly costing north of $100,000--featuring a group of actors waving "We Love You, Katie" signs. The Today Show host is at the center of a tug of war between her bosses at NBC and rival media giants over who's going to land Couric once her contract with the network expires next May, reports the Los Angeles Times. www.eonline.com /News/Items/0,1,8682.00.html   (570 words)

Media Bias-Attacking Liberalism Part V Katie Couric said on “Good morning America” that, “these are not liberals, they’re moms.” Tom Brokaw called the organizer of the march “a mother who has never been politically active. Liberal pundits fire back and say that recently with the advent of Fox News and other media outlets, that they prove that the whole argument is wrong. It's not as right-wing as I'd like it to be, but it is without a doubt to the right of where the mainstream media is. Liberals deny all day long that the media is biased, but then turn around and throw away a few shots at the Wall Street Journal and Fox News. www.freerepublic.com /focus/news/692735/posts   (1266 words)

Letters from you, my readers One thing about Matt Lauer and Katie Couric's Today Show predecessors, remember Tom Brokaw and Barbara Walters as well as Jane Paulie and Bryant Gumbel sat in those charis previously, so experience and ability do count for some things. You should know better than to show this material to a Mass Comm major and expect him to see nothing wrong. Her inexperience will more than likely show through somewhere down the line and will more than likely do a great disservice to CNN. members.aol.com /DJM2/letters.html   (345 words)

Wise supports race preferences because he believes that whites’ inherent bigotry, and their natural impulse to oppress minorities, is so profound that proactive steps must be taken to neutralize it, lest it run amok. www.frontpagemag.com /Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=18467   (2749 words)

Traitorous Media Works Leftist Agenda This same treasonous song is, of course, being sung by other leftist media egotists such as Canadian Peter Jennings, democrat Dan Rather, society boy Tom Brokaw, sniveling Howard Fineman of Newsweek, pedantic Brian Williams of MSNBC and too-cute by half Katie Couric, among dozens of others. Even now, in the midst of the most vicious and horrific attack on Americans on American soil, the leftist media have shown themselves not only incapable of supporting the nation, but of actually undermining the President, with relish. They should be ashamed of themselves and would be well-advised to drop their dangerous game of attacking the President when America itself is under attack. www.newsmax.com /archives/articles/2001/9/13/83413.shtml   (491 words)
