  1. If you read her book you can really see that Katie was very brave and hungry to succeed. Her career is not without challenges but she just goes head on.

  2. Couric thinks there are Americans that need to be sent to camps to be reprogrammed, and their freedom of speech removed because they don't have the same political agenda as she does. She is a clown.

  3. The Today Show wouldn’t be what it is today had it not been for Catie Couric, Kathie Lee Gifford, Ann Curry & Natalie Morales. If these could all make a comeback they would most definitely be the G.O.A.T.

  4. Tom Llamas is just there as "Eye Candy." Thanks. I love it. Katie is the perfect example of one failing upwards. She IS an Icon. I will purchase her book.

  5. The country was very ready for a "good" female anchor. Katie was not good. Katie is much better suited for game shows, talks show formats. Ann Currie is so much better as many others were.

  6. Love Katie …love her honesty….anyone who criticizes her for being a queen bee with other women is a judgement hypocrite … people are meat eaters and we all defend our turf and what is ours…. You go girl

  7. The country just didn't need a slime ball like you curic. She was brought in by tim russert who turned out to be revealed as a rat face informant . Now that we know what russert was wonder what she did for russet to get the job. By the way curic Ashleigh Banfield is and always was a better human being than you perky curic. You are a slimeball curic

  8. Life lesson is you lie and don’t disclose information like from Matt Lauer’s sexual abuse and you edit out the hurtful things liberals have said and done. I’d never read this book. True account? You don’t know what the truth is!

  9. Ann Curry will always outshine Katie………..Ann's reporting of Humanitarian issues will always be better than Katie reading the prompter. I have always wandered why the cameras on CBS cameras were not close to Katie.

  10. To all of my fully-invested fellow members of the Collective:

    Remember to always embrace your iconic authenticity; it's so inspiring.

    Walk in your empowered majestic truth of impeccable ethics. This is breathtaking.

    Own your panoramic power and honor your pristine integrity. Absolutely jaw-dropping!

    Continue to be the transcendent role model that you always are, by being accountable. Stunning!

    Display your incomparable bravery and relentless epic courage, despite horrifying and terrifying unprecedented uncertainty, inter-generational trauma, suffocating stigma and perpetual adversity. Hallelujah!

    Your strength and independence is contagious; raise your clenched fist in revolutionary defiance of the oppressive system that perpetuates monumental disparity! So empowering!

    Share your very special lived experiences with the world; this is exemplary loving-kindness, in action. This YOUR precious truth (and we honor it, in solidarity). Glory! Hallelujah!

    Now you may boldly journey toward the panoramic horizon, the dawning of majestic Social Justice, on your noble mission of self-actualization; facilitating fundamental transformations and comprehensive changes. As spectacularly enlightened and accelerated visionary crusaders of re-imaginings and dismantlings, you're creating the new utopian age of global unification, mutual kindness, elevated unconditional compassion and reciprocal empathy.

    All hail the Collective! You're healing the world and your legacy will endure throughout the ages! Glory!

    Water Is Wet. Fire Is Hot. The Sky Is Blue. Ice Is Cold.

    My love for you is so deep and sincere. Do you love me too?

  11. I don't think Katie protected Matt she had a lot going on with her husband dying and raising children and a full time job….
    She's a hard worker… climb a plateau that for a female isn't easy … it wasn't her business most of us just want to go to work do our job without getting involved in other people's drama …. these weren't children they were adults who had to handle their own destiny I'm sure she would back them up but certainly not her place to interfere in Matt's business he was way to powerful to mess with at the time….
    So far as our Country not being ready for a female anchor…. she is wrong… the world has never been ready for us females …. we have to make them ready
    What happened is Katie lost her charm she wasn't her cheerful self on the news and that charismatic part of her is what made her a star…. if she brought that to the table I'm sure she would have made it….she was way too sober and not herself and that's what was the true issue…. lesson learned never forget to be yourself 👍

  12. I'm Australian .. so I don't know a whole lot about Katie Couric (except that she interviewed my ex son-in-law!!). I'm just here to say how amazingly fantastic she looks for 64 ! Well done Katie !!!

  13. I’m not buying Katie’s book.I have no interest in reading a book that is very hateful,nasty,and written by a ego driven narcissist.Katie is a bully and a mean girl.she hurt a lot of her former colleagues and was malicious towards them in her book.I’ve heard what she wrote through media and I just find it mean and nasty.i have never ever liked Katie due to her grand ego and narcissistic behavior towards others.she did know and observe Matt layers behavior and I feel she enabled him by not outing him to her bosses and stand up for her female co workers.she and Matt fed on each other and they both used each other.

  14. Strikes me (personally) as weird, for lack of better words. The segment she deleted from the Ruth Ginsberg interview was, to me, one of THE MOST redeeming, patriotic stands by a U.S. Supreme Court Justice and the bizarre thought that it would "make her look bad" for pointing out the super-stupid and anti-American stance (non-stance(!)) of Colin Kaepernick, et al., is lunacy. God save us in this era of America-hating liberals who have no recognition of how good they have it here!!
