Katie Couric Still Not Backing Down

Caught red-handed in not only grossly unethical journalistic practices but likely felonious criminal activity in production of her pseudo-documentary “Under the Gun,” disgraced “journalist” Katie Couric apparently has no plans to try to make things right.

While refusing to fix the inserted eight-second pause that made pro-gun interviewees look like they had no answers, Couric last week tried to make people believe the end justifies the means.

“I can understand the objection of people who did have an issue about it,” Couric said at a breakfast last Thursday morning in New York. “Having said that, I think we have to focus on the big issue of gun violence. It was my hope that when I approached this topic that this would be a conversation starter.”

One thing is for certain, the film has been a “conversation starter”—with most of the conversation centering around Couric’s deceptive, unethical ways.
