Who's Going to Boycott CBS News/Couric Tonight? I am. |
|
I've already decided to boycott CBS News over this stupid move. Katy Couric with her Bush-leaning views was specifically chosen by CBS News to appear more conservative after the Dan Rather fiasco. It's all about the money, not the truth.
CBS, stick it up your @#(%@.

3. Don't have to boycott it. I don't have it. |
|
It's part of the local channels package on DishNetwork, which I opted out of.

6. I never could stand to watch her. She just gripes my ass. |
|
Why would I do that to myself. It's like fingernails down a blackboard.

7. I'll give the Tri Delt a chance |
|
I'm not aware that she is a right winger at all. The Right rather dislikes her, and her sister was a Democratic state senator.
I just think she is lacking in gravitas, but I'll give her a fair chance.

8. I'll miss it. Can't stand Couric. |
|
She has no credibility.
She is not a journalist.
She is an opportunist, and like an infection I'll do what I can to avoid it.
She will be gone quickly, anyway. What few viewers they have will plummet.

9. I'll never watch that giggling |
|
"Oh,look at ME,I'm so CUTE" Katie Couric. No wonder she never re-married. She's too much in love with herself.

10. I Never Watch Corporate News Anyhow.... |
|
I think this is a career-ending move for her personally, although she'll be cryin' all the way to the bank...

13. I never get my news from TV. |
|
I watch Olbermann, that's all.
I want the truth, not spin, not bias. I get my news from print, from radio, from any other sources except television.

20. Oddly enough, I have been |
|
"boycotting" network news for most of my life. Cable and internet are plenty for me. Haven't watched network since Cronkite retired.

|
if I don't watch it tonight.

22. The hiring of another propagandist! |
|
I can't watch network news for longer than 5 minutes. I end up cursing at the screen.

23. Thursday night was the last time I watched CBS news... |
|
really sad, I shut it off when she came on.
This is like Leno trying to fill Carson's shoes.

25. I seldom tune in to any commercial newscast, prefering Jim Lehrer's |
|
program instead.
From a job performance point of view, I object to the pointless dismissal of Bob Schieffer. Seemed to me he was doing just fine and didn't require any of the glitzy overhead.
