All eyes on Couric

Jerry Herron, identified as an American culture professor at Wayne State, comments about Katie Couric's highly publicized debut this evening as the first female solo anchor of a major-network evening newscast. Herron says Couric tends to blend the worlds of celebrity and journalism. \"Her resonance with me is nice haircut, pretty teeth, sweet woman. Whether that\'s what CBS wants out there as they try to create a new marketing position, I don\'t know. But that\'s probably what most of America thinks.\" Wayne State counselor Nannette McCleary Shaw also offered remarks in the story.
