Katie Couric's Hillary Play

Taking a page from the Hillary Clinton playbook, TV morning host-turned-evening newscaster Katie Couric is going on a listening tour.

The soon to be CBS anchor will be touring a half-dozen American cities and having forums with residents to determine the kind of news broadcast she'll unveil this September.

Katie's listening tour is still in the planning stages but events in Denver and San Diego have already been scheduled for July.

Apparently, Couric came up with the ear inspiring idea so that she could get a sense of which issues are on the minds of Americans and how folks feel about media coverage.

There are no plans to put participants on camera so they will supposedly be able to freely speak their minds.

The Left Coast Report says if Katie drops anchor in your town tell her to do something brand new for CBS - unbiased reporting.
