I won't. Not even tempted, though if this ratings stunt works, I would strongly caution that Robin Roberts, current co-anchor of GMA along with George Stephanopoulos, cut her vacation short and scoot Katie's perky butt out of her chair fast. Even though Katie has a daytime talk show in the works starting the fall, she could always change her mind and hey, spending mornings with cute George S. wouldn't be a bad way to start the day.
No, I'm not a hater. I just intensely dislike Katie Couric and her style of reporting. She has a habit of being extremely biased, though she did tone it down a bit on CBS during her failure of a reign as an evening anchor there. I suspect she will be even more milquetoast on “Good Morning America” to make her new Disney bosses happy.
Personally, judging by how well-received Meredith Vieira was when she took over Katie's spot on NBC's “Today Show,” coupled with some not always so nice comments made about Couric by her former co-workers there, tinged with a great lack of emotion when she finally left NBC, I think the “perky” title was code for hyped up bitch. If you didn't see Meredith Vieira's final morning at “The Today Show,” tears were shed by all
Can Ann Curry, current co-anchor of “The Today Show” hold her own against Katie? That remains to be seen. Curry, who spent many years filling in for both Katie and Meredith while in her role as news reader, is still a little awkward in her leading spot on “The Today Show.” Critics haven't always been kind, but NBC has held onto its number one title for 17 years.
