CBS executives are blaming Katy Couric's low television ratings on the viewers.

This is what CBS News Senior Vice President Linda Mason says about the matter:
"I'm just surprised at how, almost 30 years after I worked on the
"Evening News" as the first woman producer, that Katie is having such a
tough time being accepted by the public, which seems to prefer the news
from white guys, and now that Charlie's doing so well, from older white
guys. I guess they want the reassurance of a Walter Cronkite.
I had no idea that a woman delivering the news would be a handicap.
And I'm afraid that Katie's paying a price for being the first woman.
But I think it's a great trail that she's blazing, and I think if the
broadcast continues to be as good as it has been, if we continue to
break news, if we continue to tell interesting stories, people will
start to watch. It takes time, I think. But I was surprised that there
was an obvious connection between a woman giving the news, and the
audience wanting to watch it."
I don't know... I personally LIKE watching biased newscasts brought to me by arrogant, whining, liberal, socialist, men-hating feminists...
