sign-off

I have to confess that I didn't watch Katie Couric's debut on the CBS Evening News last night. However, on the way to work this morning, I heard on the radio that instead of coming up with her own sign-off, she had a video montage of other broadcasters' sign-offs. What a friggin’ copout. You have how many months to prepare for this, and you can't think of one simple line as your sign-off?

On CBSNews.com they have a link where you, the viewing public can submit your suggestions for what should be Katie's sign-off. I didn't want to make mine too outlandish and just be that guy that submits something incredibly stupid. So, I wanted to make mine something that could possibly be her new sign-off, but still very stupid. If she were to use my line...oh man...

So, here is what I submited (in bold)...

"Well, there is your news for tonight. I am Katie Couric...and you are America. Goodnight."


I challenge any of you to submit something and share it with us here. Together, we can get this done.
