Despite a contract due to run until 2011, Katie Couric is expected to end her anchor job at CBS Evening News possibly as soon as the January 2009 presidential inauguration, reports the Wall Street Journal, relying on information from CBS News executives and Couric's inner circle.
The potential move comes as a result of continual low ratings for the nightly newscast, a high (estimated $15 million a year) salary for Couric and pressure at the network to slash costs and attract more viewers.
For the last week in March, Couric's broadcast was watched by an average of 5.9 million viewers – compared to 8.3 million who tuned in NBC's Nightly News With Brian Williams and 8 million for ABC's World News With Charles Gibson.

There is one genre that is always able to flourish in the Straight to DVD market, and that is the horror genre. Every day thousands of naïve and unsuspecting consumers (a.k.a “suckers”) are duped into renting or even buying a straight to DVD release that is bound to suck. The acronym for these movies is perfect, for these movies usually are the STDs of the horror genre.
