Katy Couric

Veteran journalist Katy Couric is quite famous for her detailed and intelligent reporting and excellent interviewing skills. There are moments, however, when other people find her too elitist. In recent news, she has made partisan remarks disfavoring the Grand Old Party or GOP. Tim Graham, NewsBusters executive, said that Couric had long retired from being an objective journalist. This would, of course, cause a significant blow to the journalist’s reputation. Others predict that it would somehow affect her future.

Far into the past, fellow journalist Sheila Weller claimed in a book The News Sorority that Couric was fond of trash-talking the way other anchors dress. There is no doubt that the news anchor has a high degree of fashion sense, but it should never be a license to demean how others present themselves. In another video that circulated in 2007, Couric was seen mocking Dan Rather. It was not a pleasant watch.
