Broadcasting & Cable: “CBS News and Sports President Sean McManus says that, while the CBS Evening News With Katie Couric ‘may have started off a little soft,’ he is happy with where the show is today and doesn’t plan any major changes in the near future.” More quotes from McManus:
> “I think it is a fact there are probably people, both men and women, who are perhaps uncomfortable having a woman anchor the news. The way she is scrutinized, I think sometimes unfairly, quite frankly, I think a lot of that has to do with gender.”
> “The show you see now is pretty much what you are going to see.”
> “The media may be losing some patience, but none of us at CBS are losing patience.”
