Fox News Bashes ‘Desperate,’ ‘Ambitious,’ ‘Single Mother’ Katie Couric For Traveling To Iraq

[Imagevision]

So how does Fox feel about all the single military moms (and dads) serving in Iraq? Are they too bad parents? I t would be great if Katie agreed to go to Iraq if she could report what was truly going on there WITHOUT the Penatgon stepping in to insure that the American only be told what they deem is the truth.

They say Katie’s a bad mother for going to Iraq to “report” on the war. What does that say about all the mothers who are over there fighting the war, that they aren’t concerned about their children. Way to FOX for your support of the troops.

1. Faux Now Bashing Widows Trying To Support Kids

Gosh, I wonder what kind words they would have for her if she quit and went on Welfare. When will the majority of Americans wake up to the fact that unless you are rich and willing to succumb to their ideology the Neocons consider you a terrorist or bait.

2. They Are Just Angry That She's Doing More Eye-Rack Reporting Before 7 AM

than the whole FAUX Noise organization did the whole summer.

4. If she was working for Fox Noise they would hail her as a

Heroin. There would be a butt load of stories about her & how brave & great she is.

5. Hillary: Sending Katie Couric to Iraq ‘Too Little, Too Late’ - Hang on for

just a damn minute. I thought everything in Iraq was peachy keen. Why does anybody care that Katie is going since she will be there for Disney Middle East opening day? I'm confused,I thought Iraq was like a flea market walk in Indiana?

(2007-08-29) — Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, today said that the decision by CBS to send Evening News anchor Katie Couric to Baghdad, Iraq, was a “desperate move” that she called “too little, too late.”
->(for whatever that's worth?)

7. Couris is an idiot and anything that hastens her departure

the better. Lara Logan, baby, Lara logan. That's who should be sitting behind the anchor desk, not the untalented pinheaded Couric.

9. I am not a fan of Katie, but I would not want her to leave because Fox was

cheering for her to leave.

8. did they do the same when Brian Williams went to report from Iraq??

10. If Katie doesn't report the truth about Iraq war, this will be her swan song...

I believe she is handed a script and told to simply read what the telepromters display and has no control over anything she reports on, I don't remember her being this pathetic sorry!
