Katie: The Real Story Book
New York Times BestsellerA no-holds-barred account of the riseâ??and dramatic stumbleâ??of a media icon.In this probing portrait of a struggling news queen, bestselling author Edward Klein rips away the mask that has hidden the many faces of Katie Couric: the strong, independent woman and the needy wife and lover; the grieving widow famed for her kindness to others and the fiercely competitive diva; the consummate television interviewer and the stumbling network anchor.Drawing from scores of interviews with people who have never spoken openly about Couric before, Katie: The Real Story absorbingly chronicles Katieâ??s rise to the topâ??from her early days at CNN to her nightly spot on CBS. Youâ??ll read about: Katie and her husband, Jay Monahan: â??Jay had come to believe that the only thing that stood between Katie and divorce was her fear of negative publicity.â?Katieâ??s diva behavior at CBS: â??A technical problem left Katie standing without a script. . . . As soon as the red light on the top of the camera went off, she screamed. One of the executives said, â??Just a minute, Katie; the reason you make $15 million a year is to carry off these little glitches like a pro.â??â?Katie and her parents: â??She constantly sought [their] approval, but . . . [they] were better at telling her what she had done wrong than what she had done right.â?Katie and Matt Lauer: â??Matt had privately told several executives at NBC that he would quit his job if they signed up Katie for another four years.â?Read More
