Katie Couric: "I'm Not That Vain...Just A Little." [Catty Couric]
Jezebel —
Remember earlier this year when Dan Rather accused Katie Couric of "tarting up" CBS News? Um, apparently she's not over it. In the clip above, Katie mocks YouTube footage of Rather in which he spent 20 minutes deciding on whether or not to wear a jacket . Then when she's ready for her close up, she says, "Jeez, don't you think he deserves a little payback? This tart is ready to go!" Oh snap! Katie defends her Rather-esque primping by saying, "I'm not that vain...just a little vain." She also uses the words "bro" and "dude" and apparently wears Uggs. Her teenage daughters must be mortified. Katie Couric Caught On Camera Mocking ...

Katie Couric's Coat Clip: An Inside Hatchet Job
Jossip —
This clip, which has been making the World Wide Web rounds this week, demonstrates how Katie Couric and Dan Rather have more in common than struggling to compete with NBC. But how does a clip like this – where a feed is recording, but not even broadcasting to CBS affiliates – even end up on YouTube?
“Easy,” says a TV news industry veteran not at CBS. Though the feed was likely kept “isolated … and kept inside the building” to protect against slip ups exactly like this one, “any edit room can call up the control room or ...

Katie Couric Get’s Even With Dan Rather (Video)
Bitten and Bound —
Some months back retired news anchor Dan Rather shared his opinion of why Katie Couric’s “CBS Evening News” format was floundering. He declared that she was “dumbing it down and tarting it up”. The alleged tart has finally gotten even.
Katie Couric was clowning in front of a TV camera as she was preparing to film an outdoor segment. She imitated the way Rather had primped with his clothing, obsessing with her appearance in an exaggerated manner, and then declared “this tart is ready to go”.

Katie Couric Get’s Back at Dan Rather
Hot Momma Celebrity Gossip Blog —
Awhile back retired news anchor Dan Rather shared his insights as to why Katie Couric’s “CBS Evening News” format was floundering. He referred to his successor as ”a nice person,” but said ”the mistake was to try to bring the ‘Today’ show ethos to the ‘Evening News,’ and to dumb it down, tart it up in hopes of attracting a younger audience.”
The alleged tart has finally gotten even.
In an earlier video that surfaced last month, Rather was seen obsessing over his appearance before a remote broadcast — particularly questioning the wearing of an overcoat.

Lost Remote —
“We wanted to let more people take a look… so we established this channel on YouTube” - Katie Couric about her new channel on the video sharing site, which right now features a series of “Primary Questions” to some of the candidates running for president. Best line from the intro video (below): “Hello YouTube viewers. You know, it’s nice to be on YouTube for a change when I know the cameras are rolling… Harry Shearer I’m going to get you! Anyways…” Of course, she’s referring to this and this.
Katie Couric Just Might Be More Popular on YouTube Than CBS
Jossip —
Everybody is just loving Katie Couric’s YouTube channel. That’s the sense you might get from Matea Gold’s LAT profile of her Web 2.0 efforts, which quotes commenters saying things like, “Love to see the real katie. . . . not the behind the desk robot.” (That’s an expression of “delight,” says Gold. To us, that’s a bandhanded way of saying, “Way to use the upload button.”)
“Filmed at a time of feverish speculation about how much longer she will stay on the third-place broadcast,” writes Gold, “the videos offer a ...
A History of Live Mic Mishaps: 6 Private Confessions Made Public
Jossip —
There are live on-air gaffes that news anchors wish they could erase, like the common Obama/Osama mix-up.
But when Jesse Jackson whispered that he wanted to “cut [Obama’s] nuts off” before a Fox & Friends interview on Sunday was set to begin, it was a reminder that public figures often have a hard time keeping their private conversations to themselves when they’ve got a hot mic pack clipped to their hip.
It should be a simple life lesson: When you have a media outlet’s microphone attached to you , by default you should expect other people are ...
