Hiring
Katie Couric as "CBS Evening News" anchor just shoots fireworks over a graveyard, says
Tim Goodman. "That's pretty and all, but what's needed is a paradigm shift. ...Katie Couric is not a revolution. Wake us up when you get
Oprah. Or import
Keith Olbermann and 'Countdown' from cable. Or burn the whole building down with
Jon Stewart's 'Daily Show' starting a synergy fire."

Whether Couric makes the switch rests in part on her value as the face of NBC's morning show -- and the lengths to which the network will go to keep her on its most profitable newscast, says
Matea Gold.
