“Hats Off” To Katie Couric & Primary Questions

By Chris Ariens 

Andrew Tyndall, the keeper of all things network evening news, says CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric has found her voice. “I am pleased to report,” Tyndall writes, “how successful I found the premiere of her ten-part series of Presidential candidate interviews.” Tyndall continues:

Hats off to Couric for getting these proud politicians to sit still for her experiment. The type of questions she chose makes her a legitimate heir to the pre-celebrity role of Barbara Walters, asking earnest good government questions yet treating political leaders as human beings not position papers.
