REPORT: Katie Couric Leaving “CBS Evening News” Anchor Chair

Truth rating: 8

Katie Couric is leaving her job as the anchor of “CBS Evening News,” reports the Associated Press.

The news service, claiming to have spoken to a CBS executive, says Couric – the first woman to solely anchor an evening newscast – will leave her position, and is “expected to launch a syndicated talk show in 2012.”

Following the original fanfare when Couric took over anchoring duties less than five years ago, the “CBS Evening News” settled into third place behind NBC’s leading “Nightly News” with Brian Willams and ABC’s “World News” with Diane Sawyer.

While no end date has been announced, reports the Associated Press, Couric’s contract expires on June 4.

A source close to Couric confirms to Gossip Cop that it’s “a likely scenario” she’ll leave the “CBS Evening News,” but it’s not quite a done deal yet, and “she’s figuring things out.”

    Comrade Katy Couric should leave. In fact she should have been fired for bias a long time ago. She does not report the news. She gives her opinion and carries the water for Democrats and Obama. She is as neutral as what Dan Rather was and Chris Matthews is. The most left and unashamedly biased news people in the business. At least FOX News reports the news and gives both sides.. Their OPINION shows like Hannity & O’Reilly, report the facts and offer opposing views from guests who are liberal/left/progressive/socialists and insert their own opinions backed up with facts. It is their own show so it is normal. What is not normal is having Couric and her cronies controlling the major networks agenda and voice. It is supposed to be NEUTRAL.

    The major news channels are controlled by anti-America management and at least a few Communists are in control of the networks. The propaganda they spread is outrageous. They forget to mention that Obama added trillions to the debt ALL BY HIMSELF. He passed Obamacare by paying off senators and shoving it through without GOP support despite its bad effect on our economy even more. Somehow the war is okay because an immature, anti US novice “community organizer” is in charge now. He smiles nice and is half black so they feel good to support him. Somehow sending our troops to Libya without discussion and approval by the Congress (REQUIRED UNDER THE CONSTITUTION) is okay. Despite a down housing market due to Obama and his moron friends insisting that loans be given to people who are illegally here or can not pay them back, high unemployment (millions of people not even showing on the charts as they have exhausted their benefits and/or stopped looking), AND more troops THEN EVER deployed, riots and problems escalating in the Middle East and Europe, his interference in foreign countries and more war engagements then ever before, plus Obama’s extension of the recession/depression due to his bad decisions and policies, our troops under UN (useless nitwits) and a feeling, known Communists like Van Jones and other CZARS (not voted on by elected representatives) and our country slipping into hopelessness NOT hope—-somehow, this unqualified, unknown, un-vetted and unstoppable ruler, Obama gets a pass by Katy and her friends.

    The Hollywood elite, embedded enemies within our own country, uniformed, brainwashed, loser college kids, illegals and unemployed people on entitlement programs put Obama in office. Comrade Katy helped him and is not fit for her job as an anchor. Find out why the majority of Americans are rising up and saying NObama http://www.TheObamaFile.com Take your country back from the elite and rich. THE LEFT. Get informed. Obama made millions and took foreign money. His friends like Barney Frank, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and Charlies Wrangel are millionaires too. Obama’s adviser, George Soros made his billions bankrupting countries. The US is next. Fabian Socialists and radical Islam are creating a new world order. The US, capitalism and freedom will be destroyed in the process.

    Obama was affiliated or friends with ONLY unsavory people. Nobody knows him before college. He was raised in Indonesia and was always surrounded by Marxists and registered communists. His mentor and grandparents were under FBi watch for years. His friend Bill Ayers, the domestic terrorists and radical unemployed professor, baby sat Obama’s kids and seems to have co written Obama’s book “Dreams of My Father”. It spells out what and who he is. His father was Muslim and a known Communist. Obama was involved with Tony Rezko, who is now in prison and we all know who paid for Obama’s sudden rise to fame and political office. Soros and the foreigners.

    Somehow, a poor boy like Obama received the best education and got into Harvard Law. Of course once there, he never wrote an article as the President of the Harvard Law Review and promptly sealed his education, passport and medical records. Why??? Was he an exchange student from the Muslim country he lived in with his Muslim Indonesian step father? Obama lived in a country that only allowed citizens NOT visitors, to attend school. While in Indonesia, he attended mosque and learned Arabic. Why does Obama’s birth certificate claim his race is black when at that time in history, it would have said Negro. Why is the number blocked off which makes it null and void in any court and only shown online? Why was it printed on a laser not hand-typed as it would have been at that time. Why does it not show his religion like many birth records at that time showed? Why does Obama only have Marxists like George Soros, Bill Ayers, Valerie Jarrett and Van Jones as his trusted advisers?

    Obama’s friend George Soros was an informer to the Nazis. My relatives in Holland and Germany REMEMBER who he is and what chaos he caused. Why didn’t CBS expose this man? The democrats said Bush started an illegal war and should be impeached. President Bush got the UN’s approval and the US Congress to LIBERATE Iraq. OBAMA DID NOT when he sent more troops and got involved in Libya!! Communist organizations are organizing the riots in Egypt and Yeoman backed by the labor unions, democrats and communists here in America.
