Good luck to Dinan. I'm no TV news expert, but I absolutely knew that
Katie Couric wouldn't work in that position, and she never will. Her NBC
gig was perfect for her, and her superficial and overtly liberal
understanding of the world was never going to give her credibility or
depth. Morning fluff is the order for her. The people making this move
did a huge disservice to Katie, the CBS News tradition and the
stockholders. I'm surprised more top heads haven't rolled. This episode
is the poster-child for the end of broadcast news.

Get a clue here..when Bob Shieffer took over the CBS Evening News, the ratings improved! Does that not tell you that senior Americans are the ones that watch the news, and that most appreciate a newscaster in their age group. Since older people are the in the majority, why would you not cater to their preference?!
