All I can say is "What took so long"...CBS who gave us Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite also gave us Katie.. But many didn't want her...IMHO..

Good riddance! What a dud! She was pathetic. Somehow, she just did not cut it as a serious journalist, or even a talking head.

Yea but she is laughing all the way to the bank...in her defense Katie did a lot of good about pointing out how important it is to have your colon checked out to prevent colon cancer which is one disease that can be eliminated if you are tested for it before it becomes a problem |

She made a ton, but cost CBS.
It is not an anchor's job to tout causes, just to report the news.

She didn't even report well. Had to laugh at that promo of her "I ask myself what would you ask?" yeah right. She's a bad hack.

Murrow and Walter Cronkite and both touted several causes and were highly successful men.. And why did the Journal of Medicine give Katie an award for her work promoting colon screening?? |

The only reason Cronkite and Murrow stood out is because they were a bit better than mediocre in a sea of no names.

Who cares what JAMA does? If they want a cause, the should go after drug makers who treat disease, rather than cure it. Katie will never be anything more than a relocated cheerleader. No depth, no character.

She became an advocate for early and regular screenings after her husband died of colon cancer, PI. She made the point very vividly by having her own colonoscopy filmed and shown on TV.
While I was not a fan of her reporting style, I would never wish widowhood on anyone, no matter how much money they make or how famous they are. Her girls lost their dad as well; I believe he was only in his mid-forties when he passed.
