So Will The Camera Pan Out More?

I have a small confession to make. I used to have a crush on Katie Couric. In fact, I used to watch her on the Today show before going to school in the morning. Granted, as I matured, I still appreciated her legs, but became disgusted with her politics. I tried watching her with mute on, but it seemed to be rather pointless. And so my fascination with Katie finally died.

Now most recent rumors have finally been confirmed:

On her 15th anniversary on 'Today,' Katie Couric told viewers Wednesday she's leaving NBC to join CBS, where she will become the first woman to anchor a network weekday evening newscast alone.

I remember several months ago, Katie guest hosted on the Tonight show, and they removed the back of the desk on stage so the camera could pan out and see her legs... as a joke of course. I wonder if that will be the new permanent gimmick on the CBS news to help revive their ratings. Will they do more features with her in a comfy chair, so the cameras will have the chance to show her in profile with her legs crossed and her shoes dangling? I know... men are such simplistic and predictable animals aren't we?
