What’s Trendy?


Today’s trending topic is Katie Couric. The hot dish on Katie is that she is stepping away from her nightly news anchor job and becoming a regular on 60 Minutes. Additionally, she is set to get her own daytime TV host gig.

This doesn’t come as a shock seeing as CBS was ready to toss her on the street almost as quickly they hired her as anchor. But slowly her ratings improved and with Diane Sawyer taking over at ABC chicks quickly represented 2/3 of the network anchors.

No one is going to top Brian Williams. That guy has become an institution overnight (well as much of an institution one can be with the internet, cable news and angry birds stealing most American eyes) but maybe it can be a win-win for CBS and Katie. Anderson Cooper as CBS anchor? Maybe.

Anywho, in honor of Katie here’s some great gotcha journalism.
