Couric weighs in on Iraq, Rather

Speaking at the National Press Club Tuesday evening, CBS “Evening News” anchor Katie Couric pulled back the curtain on her personal views of both the war in Iraq and former “Evening News” anchor Dan Rather.

“Everyone in this room would agree that people in this country were misled in terms of the rationale of this war,” said Couric, adding that it is “pretty much accepted” that the war in Iraq was a mistake.

This says a hell of a lot more about “the people in this room” (almost entirely journalists and media figures) and Couric herself than it does about the facts of the matter, not to mention the accuracy of the analysis.
