Poll question: Katie Couric: Will you or won't you watch tonight |
|
Personally, I'll probably be out doing my evening exercize so even for Katie's first night I personally have no desire to watch her show. When I do watch the evening news it use to be CBS but now I'll have to see what ABC & NBC have to offer.

3. I'll definitely be watching... |
|
at least the first week. Based on that, I'll decide whether to continue to watch. I have no idea what Couric wil do taken away from the Today show. I imagine she'll continue to be soft and mushy, like Barbara Walters or Larry King, but who knows? She could turn into a pit bull, and I won't know unless I watch.

10. I don't either but I am going to watch tonight |
|
I've really never thought much of the entire CBS news operation save for 60 Minutes so I never watched. I will check it out tonight just to see what it is like.

9. I will not watch because there is a likely chance what she says... |
|
will not comport with my narrow world view. I prefer my cherrypicked internet news sites that cover only the issues I'm concerned with and in the way I want them to be covered. Because, you know, it's all about ME!
Toodles! :hi:

14. Absolutely not. I do not need any perkiness in my evening |
|
newscast. I'll just wait for Countdown at 8. :hi:
Katie Couric is NOT my idea of a news anchor.

there's a reason I watch the News Hour with Jim Lehrer. Big 3 news has little to say and little analysis to offer.

and Miss Cutsey-Pootsey isn't going to bring me back.
Besides, the new season of House starts tonight. That will be enough teevee.

17. CBS was the only network news I ever watched.... |
|
After the Huntley-Brinkley days, that is. (Yes, I'm old.)
Thanks to the DU'ers who will actually bit the bullet! I'll read your reports.

Katie Couric is an absolute air head. Why would anyone waste their time watching her vapid coverage of anything. She wouldn't even make a good weather chick.

21. I don't plan on it - yet I don't watch it much anyway |
|
Was more interested in seeing how Rosie was on the View. I don't think Katie's going to change the show any, or be any better than Rather was.

25. Maybe, I usually watch Fox 5 news |

Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 05:04 PM by haruka3_2000
*ducks*
I'll be watching House and Standoff on Fox. Then, I will indoubtedly just keep on the news for no real reason at all. Anyway, I learn important practical things that way, such as the danger of the "five-second rule."
If I remember, I'll turn on CBS news at 11pm (right?) and watch it, even though I hate Katie Couric and her colon.
On edit: Haha...I'm an idiot, apparently it's on at 6:30pm. I put on CBS, they had a story about cool little Swiss Mini Gun. Now I want one for now reason other than I think it's really cool.
