Fox’s Liz Trotta Scoffs At Idea That ‘Giggling, Grinning’ Katie Couric Is A ‘Journalist’

video
» 80 comments

There’s at least one person in the media that is rejoicing over the news that Katie Couric is probably leaving her position at CBS: Fox News’ Liz Trotta, who gave a scathing commentary today claiming the perception of Couric is as a journalist is “ridiculous,” and that her failure proved that “there’s a very big difference between doing the news… and giggling all the time.”

Beginning her piece with what problems Couric faced to begin with, she noted “the most obvious one– she’s not a journalist and no one at CBS wanted to admit this.” It only got angrier from there. While she noted that, to Couric’s benefit, network news as a whole was in a decline, Couric’s departure particularly “really is such a bad signal,” as Couric was “not just symbolic of the failure of left-wing journalism… but what has really happened to network news.”

She returns several times to her main argument that Couric was not a journalist, laughing at the idea that Couric was currently reporting from Iraq. “She was good at infotainment,” she noted– by far her kindest assessment– and “the viewers simply didn’t believe her.” She culminated with her most vicious line of attack on Couric, tackling what she perceived to be a “giggling, grinning image with very little background” that did a disservice to women in journalism. “There’s a very, very big difference between doing the news, even if you’re a woman, and giggling all the time.”

    What the hell is a Liz Trotta? Never heard of it. It sure is ugly, though. Considering it apparently calls Fox News it’s home, I guess that’s not all that surprising.

    Is that a merkin on her head? Couric proved her credentials when she exposed an ignornat, 5 school, hillbilly moron for what she was which helped get her crazy unqualified ass off the stage. What’s her name? She’s sort of faded from view?

  • WillP

    All of the Republicans at Fox News dislike with a vengeance Katie Couric. Couric exposed Palin as a complete dunce asking her simple questions that she could not answer. But, of course, it was never Palin’s fault that she doesn’t read very much or can’t name a Supreme Court case. The entire blame belonged to Couric who is part of the “lamestream” media. So since these interviews in 2008 Couric has been vilified by Republicans for wrongfully attacking Palin. That’s the background behind the criticism that comes out of Republicans such as Trotta right now.

    Liz Trotta has more journalistic awards and credentials than the entire MessNBC primetime low-ratings wrecking crew. She was in Bosnia and dodging sniper bullets Sarajevo dodging bullets while Couric was doing her “perky thang” for the libtard rubes in DC. The inside-the-beltway phonies. Couric is a confection, a banana split of maraschino cherries and chocolate dripping on her grinning mindless mouth.

    When NBC sent Williams and ABC sent Sawyer to Egypt, Couric was still hanging out in South Beach with a boy toy. She didn’t get there until long after the fireworks died. A day late and a dollar short ain’t journalism.

  • flagringo

    Liz is part of the New York elite Press…her resume proves it….yet I like that she TWEAKS the liberals and calls out the sexism — women are hardly criticized in Liberal circles but men have a ton of bricks thrown at them. Couric has taken CBS News to the sewer as far as ratings goes…and no one believes anything she says, she’s strictly a mouthpiece for the left with boobs and a great set of teeth.

    Katie is dancing by herself now….she’s a ratings loser

    She took over a 3rd place broadcast and will leave it in the same place that she found it.

    this is not what the comments are about. What the comments are about is a journalist that has an impressive past resume is calling out katie couric and also calling out the sexism that exists in the punditry…men are criticized but professional leftist women in the media are barely criticized. Couric is a confirmed lefty, there is tons of videotape proving that….

    Putting Palin into the mix, go ahead and read her Facebook posts and try to find anything that is inaccurate in her writing….oh, yeah, Palin actually DOES have a journalism degree…which the PERKY ONE never had.

    Don’t call someone stupid when you can’t even type its properly. And please stop being a sexist. That is all.

  • LarryB

    Not that Couric will ever be confused with Walter Cronkite, but what in the world would Liz Trotta know about being a journalist? Maybe as a young reporter back in Cronkite’s day she may have had some journalistic standards, but calling for Obama’s assassination prior to the election automatically eliminates her from the ranks of journalists (if you agree with her, then substitute the name Bush for Obama and see if you still agree that it was a fitting comment to be made by a journalist). Trotta is paid by Fox to give biased opinions. That is not a journalist, although I suspect many Fox die-hards will not agree.

    It’s not Katie Couric’s fault that journalism at CBS has been reduced to giggling and grinning. The folks running CBS News made that decision long ago. So they put in a lady who is great at giggling and grinning. Now if CBS wanted to present honest hard-hitting journalism, rather than sugar coated spin and political correctness, they could always look at what Roger Ailes has done, with great success, over at the news network that is growing its audience and constantly expanding its influence. But don’t hold your breath. CBS News prefers sugar coated spin, and that requires a heavy dose of grinning and giggling to compensate for the lack of honesty and substance.

    “She took over a 3rd place broadcast and will leave it in the same place that she found it” Bob Schieffer had CBS back in second place after loser Dan Rather had gone from The Tiffany Network all the way to the Toolshed Toilet in twenty years of incompetent pseudo-journalism. After Dingbat Dan ruined CBS along with Larry Tisch [sorta the Keller/Pinch Sulzberger scenario], the doobies at Black Rock put Katy in to spruce up the news and SHE LOST THREE MILLION VIEWERS down from Dingbat Dan’s Toolshed Toilet level. She lowered third place into LAST PLACE WITH AN ASTERISK [*first female to totally tank an evening news broadcast, worse than Chung and Baba Wawa].

    Katie never earned her seat at the anchor chair for a nightly news program, she slept her way to the job. She was incompetent and a boob/bimbo.

    Scott won’t do any better though, cuz he is just as liberal as she was. if CBS wants to win the night, they need to break out of the pack of leftwing liberal mediaites and reach outside the box. If they put in a conservative, who will speak with a conservative voice to oppose silly face maker Dianne and her sidekick George, or the bower, CBS would win the day.

    They won’t, they aren’t that smart, but if they did, they would sky rocket in viewers. Stupid is as stupid does, so I expect to see Scott Pelly in the chair, and he will high-five with his liberal pals, and all will think and speak inside the box.

    The Neo-Cons’ sick obsession with assassinating Barack Obama took another bizarre turn yesterday when Fox News guest Liz Trotta openly expressed a desire to see someone “knock off” the Democratic candidate.

    Trotta, former New York bureau chief of the Washington Times, referred to the Democratic frontrunner as “Osama” before quipping that it would be nice to see both Bin Laden and Barack Obama killed.

    TROTTA: And now we have what some are reading as a suggestion that somebody knock off Osama — Obama. Well, both, if we could

    Do you know what a Chicken Picker is? If you ever see a pen full of Chickens and one gets an injury or sore on their body or head. All the other Chickens start picking on the injured Chicken. I have to laugh because it reminds me of all the Chicken Picker at Fox News when they think Obama made a mistake or is getting into trouble. If you ever seen a pen for of Chicken Pickers at work, you can set at your TV and keep flipping the Channel remote and watch all the Chicken Pickers at Fox display their skills as Chicken Pickers. If you have a sense of humor, this is like watching Funniest Home Videos.

    Both anchors and both stations should grow up, stop cat-calling at each ther like grade-schoolers and do what they’re supposed to do, report news. Oh, right, they can’t, both are way too full of ambition to get top ratings and their own biases to do anything like that.
