    @whitehead, re Camille's tirade about Katie Couric:

    I don't watch much TV news, but I'll have to start catching more of Katie's interviews. As you observe, it was no great accomplishment to show up Sarah Palin as a fool; all she had to do was ask simple, reasonable questions and then sit back as the word-salad flew. But judging from Camille's hostility, Couric can also take on, and take out, professional, full time, major league bullsh!tters. Couric must really have done a job on Paglia, wish I'd seen it.
