Credit goes out for her view of the Iraq War, but Katie Couric’s commenting on Dan Rather’s journalistic skills is a touch strange.

I saw this photograph of Ms. Couric

Couric weighs in on Iraq, Rather
September 26, 6:23 AM
Her take on the news

Speaking at the National Press Club Tuesday evening, CBS “Evening News” anchor Katie Couric pulled back the curtain on her personal views of both the war in Iraq and former “Evening News” anchor Dan Rather.

“Everyone in this room would agree that people in this country were misled in terms of the rationale of this war,” said Couric, adding that it is “pretty much accepted” that the war in Iraq was a mistake.


Couric took Rather to task for his reporting. “There were things in there that were quite egregious in terms of how it was reported,” she said. “And sloppy work is sloppy work…They did not dot their I’s and cross their T’s when it came to that story…And our job is to get right.”
