Last night, Katie Couric brought her famous legs to the Colbert Report. Stephen Colbert kept trying to get a "leg up" on her...but Katie knew how to keep her feet grounded while riding the truthiness train.
Politicians can't seem to help themselves taking Colbert's ridiculous bait...but Katie showed she's got more than just gams. Yep, she showed she can "stand" the threat down; she won't be put On Notice (for now).
As for the ratings...well...

News watchers have been tracking "The Katie Couric Effect" ever since she announced her departure from NBC's "Today Show" to join the "CBS Evening News" last September.
After a fast start as America's first female evening news anchor, her ratings quickly declined, stalling her in 3rd place for the last 6 months.
Meanwhile, Charlie Gibson's "World News" on ABC has overtaken former news champ Brian Williams of NBC's "Nightly News" for 1st place.
Here at the Jointblog, we're still amazed how often people keep searching online for Katie Couric's legs. She may not have the ratings...but her fans still love her online.
Katie's 15 years at The Today Show proved she knows how to have fun, even when she's ultra-competitive. Don't forget, she did have a colonoscopy on live TV (which, in all seriousness, increased the number of health screenings around the world simply because Katie made it less scary). ThisJustIn.com has some suggestions to help give Katie Couric some fresh legs in the ratings race, including this posting's spoof picture (above, along with 9 others):Drastic changes are afoot to fix The CBS Evening News. In addition to firing their executive producer, here are several other changes that This Just In has learned are already in the works to grab viewers away from those sexy devils Brian Williams and Charles Gibson...
Yes, she has plenty of critics. How would you help lift her ratings?
