  Journalistic Standards Of The Juvenile
 
Katie Couric, CBS News anchor, demanded that her staff stop all references to "Governor" or "Gov." surrounding her interview with Alaska's Governor Sarah Palin.
A person on her staff pointed out that in other venues, CBS News and Couric had referred to Joe Biden, using his title of "Senator" or the abbreviation. According to a CBS News editorial aide, Couric sought approval from CBS News management to drop the reference "Governor" during her broadcast interview with Palin.
Couric did not refer to Palin as Governor at anytime during the interview.
Most people, as they mature, develop skills to discuss and debate with adversaries that are not petty and juvenile such as those Couric used in her position as a CBS News anchor.
She -- in her juvenile, so-very-angry attitude toward Governor Palin -- simply displayed her petty and juvenile methods. And CBS News -- having allowed it -- simply displayed itself.
Couric and CBS News also displayed the fact that they are very afraid of this accomplished lady known as Governor Palin. But what might they fear from Governor Palin? She is not a juvenile, petty person like Couric and CBS News. She is concerned with important issues.
Couric, CBS News, and too many others in the MSM fail to have any pride in their profession. Might they comprehend what journalistic standards are? Might they be concerned about reporting facts to the American people?
Might the American people be concerned that they do not -- and often cannot -- receive honest reporting from the MSM stars?
