DOES THE BS IN CBS STAND FOR...Um, no. But I'm slightly aghast at the mainstream media for getting all aflutter over Les Moonves the other day and rushing to print with stories saying that the CBS Evening News soon will be multi-anchored or aided by Jon Stewart. Didn't they pay any attention to the actual press conference? Apparently not. Les simply answered the questions foisted upon him and speculated aplenty, which means that anything is possible. Anyone who still thinks Katie Couric would make a great evening anchor, however, should think again after hearing this exchange Wednesday morning with Donald Trump.
Yes, picture her anchoring the nightly news, why don't you.
Couric: "Did you have her sign a pre-nup?"
Trump: "Absolutely."
Couric: "I can't believe I just asked you that question."
Yes, picture her anchoring the nightly news, why don't you.
