GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD NEWS

This is the way that CNN's website had a paragraph of their wrap-up of Katie Couric's first go at anchoring CBS' nightly news. It was from yesterday morning and it has since been fixed, so clearly some other than me caught it.

Couric's only real nod to her newbie status came at the end, with a joking report on her difficulties coming up with a signoff. She showed clips of Cronkite, Chet Huntley, Dan Rather, Ted Baxter and even fictitious anchorman Ron Burgundy giving their final words, then invited viewers to submit suggestions on the CBS News Web site.

Too funny!

Obviously an insult to Ron Burgundy to compare him with that Cronkite guy.
