Couric In The Raw, Mocking Palin

By now it's well known the Mainstream Media is in the back pocket (or front pocket in Chris Matthew's case) of the Obama Administration, but it's still shocking to see exactly how little objectivity there is.

On this raw satellite feed, CBS anchorwoman Katie Couric -- and by anchorwoman, I mean the woman on whose watch the network's ratings sink ever deeper -- takes some early shots at Sarah Palin. The piece appears to be a voiceover bio for the former Alaska Governor that aired after Senator John McCain picked Palin to be his Veep pick.

In the piece, Couric takes shots of the names of Palin's kids, her hometown, and her femininity, because Sarah was a former basketball player.



I could point out the irony of Couric making fun of Palin for being some kind of backwoods simpleton, while simultaneously relying on a team of producers in her ear to teach her how to pronounce "Wasilla" -- but that would be too obvious.
