Report: Couric to Relinquish CBS Anchor Chair in June

CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric is reportedly “very likely” to leave her newscaster position in June as network news chairman Jeff Fager actively searches for her replacement.Report: Couric to Relinquish CBS Anchor Chair in June

According to the Daily Beast, CBS News’ former White House correspondent Scott Pelley is a top contender to replace Couric:

aThe “60 Minutes” correspondent has long been a favorite of Fager, who doubles as the show’s executive producer. But with Fager taking a methodical approach to his first major decision, Pelley is not a lock. A few short weeks ago, the expectation in the Couric camp—after discussions with top CBS management—was that she would sign a new deal to stay in the anchor’s job through the 2012 elections as she figured out the next phase of her career. But the thinking on both sides has now changed as Couric has aggressively tested the waters—and found substantial interest in her services. …

Pelley, a Texan who began his career at a station in Lubbock, is the opposite of a celebrity journalist. A White House correspondent for CBS during the Clinton administration, he landed the first interview with George W. Bush as president-elect. Pelley has reported from around the world, including such war zones as Iraq and Afghanistan. He and his team have won numerous awards, including 15 Emmys, for stories on such subjects as the BP oil spill, civilian deaths in Iraq, and child slavery in India.

While no one would question Pelley’s hard-news credentials, he may lack the flair to boost the CBS Evening News out of third place. But then, he—or whoever the network picks—will be making far less than Couric’s $15 million annual salary.

So what’s up next for the perky morning host-turned-serious new anchor?

Couric recently told late-night host David Letterman that she has “no idea” what might come next for her when her five-year contract deal expires.  “I’m figuring out what I want to do,” she said earlier this week.

Howard Kurtz guesses that whatever her next move is, Couric’s next foray in television will likely capitalize on her “interviewing and ad libbing talents.”

She is now exploring daytime or syndication deals—including with CBS, whose chairman, Les Moonves, remains a strong supporter. CBS is hopeful about finding a way to keep Couric, but her team is also talking to her former network, NBC; to ABC, and to Time Warner.

If she is to launch a syndicated program in the fall of 2012, it would debut in the middle of the general election campaign—and the enormous preparation involved in such a launch would be difficult if her day job was as a network anchor.

      I talked with Pat about my mother and her illness. I knew he was in the room as soon as I heard his great booming voice (he has a voice that you can never forget). He is a lovely man, very caring.

      The liberal media is such a joke. Remember the tragic shooting in Arizona? We had people like Ed Schultz trying to give US a lesson in civility. Check it out in this video on Ed, it’s spot on.

      It boggles my mind that someone as vacuous as KC can make all those millions for smiling through tragedy and death as she reads the partisan script that was prepared for her.

      Maybe Couric will take the fall for the administration’s involvement in the AFT Mexican gun scandal. Loyal leftie Katie would no doubt volunteer to fall on the sword for her hero Obama. It’s a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

      You know, I remember when her husband died of cancer…can’t remember how many years ago that was…but she was left with young children…I remember feeling very sorry for her…She has proven to be a huge disappointment…talk about someone who took the wrong path…too bad…just another “pretty face”…

      CBS might as well keep the stupid flat pecker on. It isn‘t like CBS plans to hire any journalists that don’t promote and hype the leftist propaganda. Thus, they will not attract younger viewers that have gotten comfortable with more News Media choices offered on the Internet. CBS News viewership will still rely heavily on older stupider Americans whose numbers are dwindling.

      Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra –

      I like your idea of having Katie go to FOK news. I hear it’s a rising star in terms of ratings and coverage. Maybe they could send K.O. to interview Charlie Sheen outside the royal palace in Libya. I’m sure that would send the ratings through the roof. Just think, the Vatican warlock assassin launching his torpedo of truth right outside Daffy’s house. And maybe they could stay there, long term.

      Praise the Lord! This is the best news I’ve heard in a long time. I warned CBS not to hire her as she was a loser. First of all, I couldn’t stand the woman after making her hateful remarks about Conservatives in general and Bush in particular. Then she tried to railroad Sarah Palin and it made me truly despise this Couric gal. Well, that was a good $15 million mistake for CBS and a loss of most of the people who might watch the fallen news program.
