Katie Couric to Beat Crap Out of Campbell Brown?
For those of you growing beyond tired at the sight of Today co-host Katie Couric's increasingly tan, puzzlingly pinched face morning after morning, there's some news on the speculation front. While Couric has not announced any plans to vacate her grip on Matt Lauer's lapels, we can all dreamily wonder who might fill Couric's chair when that fateful day finally comes. According to U.S. News & World Report, the lucky lady just might be Campbell Brown:
How Brown vaulted to the front of the pack is an unusual industry story, fully on display during Katrina. Long urged to "girlie up" her image, as her competitors have, Brown has chosen instead to report from places like Baghdad and New Orleans. "It's very hard," she says, "to take comments like that seriously when you're standing in the aftermath of a hurricane and you haven't showered for three days."
Katie Couric, she most certainly is not. But that just might be the point. Now let's all pray for Brown's safety, because we suspect Couric's about 2 segments away from a stiletto-wielding rampage.
