From "Katie Couric rips into former TODAY Show colleagues, admits she froze out female rivals to 'protect her turf,' says her toyboy ex was a 'midlife crisis' and takes potshots at Prince Harry who stank of alcohol in her new memoir" (Daily Mail).
The Epstein bit: "She describes Epstein's $75million New York townhouse as 'Eyes Wide Shut with a twist - creepy chandeliers and body-part art.' Guests ate lasagna out of shallow bowls and Epstein 'held court' in front of the fireplace to the likes of Chelsea Handler and Woody Allen and Soon-Yi Previn, George Stephanopoulos and Charlie Rose. On the way home [her boyfriend] remarked how young the women were who took their coats.... 'I couldn't imagine what Epstein and Andrew were up to....'" Good of her to share what she knows. Lasagna in shallow bowls... that says a lot.

Who can forget her brain-dead train interview with Joe Biden where she swallowed whole every made-up or hallucinated statement he made. Roosevelt on TV to calm the country after the 1929 market crash? That's her turf?
So wait a minute, are we supposed to read this gawd-awful trash?
Lasagna in shallow bowls...
Whoa. Maybe he did kill himself...
My ability to care about Katie Couric begins and ends at zero.
Other than to mock her. She is a hack(D). She slimed Charlie Kirk - and so - Katie Couric is dead to me.

All Pedophiles.
Using leftist logic here. Those are the rules.
Banfield was the bomb. Katie was correct to be cautious.
so, she is a shallow, vain Girl Boss just as I thought.
"Couric admits that during her time at TODAY she was unwelcoming to other women because she felt like she needed to 'protect my turf.' She writes that she was aware that 'someone younger and cuter was always around the corner'
"Younger and cuter", not "younger and more qualified"? I guess that tells you what women (some, anyway) consider to be "qualifications".
Banfield is still available on NewsNation. Different glasses, though. CC, JSM
“Lasagna in shallow bowls” could be your next masthead motto. Apparently simple, but actually richly layered. CC, JSM
Is there anything in these people's lives that isn't about hate, jealousy, and the desire to harm others? Our verbalist overlords suck royally.
I see Catty Couric as an apex predator. Smelling fear in her prey, unless masked by alcohol and tobbacco.
"So I have to ask when you consider some of Donald Trump’s behaviors and policies, like deploying federal forces to U.S. cities, undermining the Department of Justice’s independence, attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Does that not trouble you deeply?” she asked stupidly.
I guess when a sick US Senator with a history of strokes, runs rings around you, you're not very bright. But Catty did her job. Push the party line.
Lasange in shallow bowls. Per AI=
"Yes, it is a good idea to serve lasagna in a shallow bowl, especially a wide one with a broad rim, because it helps contain the sauce and makes it easier to eat without making a mess. Serving in a bowl also helps keep the lasagna hot for longer by reducing the exposed surface area compared to a plate"
Admitting that you are a creep doesn't make you less of a creep. It's not a sign of humility or insight.
A bad temper and the angry clickety clack of her heels in the hallways of 30 Rock are most likely what she’s best remembered for by colleagues.
Pretty low of her to trash Banfield's father with rumor and insinuation. Anybody surprised that Couric is libtard trash?
Shallow bowls, like individual au gratin dishes? If so, it sounds like an excellent way to serve it. Less likely to slide off the plate into someone's lap as it's being served and it pools the sauce around the lasagne to make it easier to mop up with garlic bread.
It was a disastrous move and Couric describes how staffers felt she was an 'existential threat' to their existence. Are there other kinds of existential threats?
No not at all
Hence the definition
Feminist feudalism.
When the Aztecs cut the yollotl or heart out of their victims they placed it in a cuauhxicalli, a shallow bowl.
I'm not going to read her book, but does Couric explain exactly why she went to his house for dinner after he had been convicted of having sex with a minor? There's no way she was unaware of that.
Katie Couric is 68 years old. I suspect that there are a lot of female journalists on staff at the various MSM outlets who are "younger" than Ms. Couric. I'll leave the "cuter" judgment alone--it's subjective.
But Ms. Couric lost any chance of garnering my attention (here's that word "garner" again) when I saw a video of her celebrating at her 50th birthday party. She was wearing a very short black leather miniskirt and "twerking" her fanny in some dude's crotch. I don't much care what floats anyone's boat if conducted in private. But the video--distributed in public, persuaded me that Ms. Couric was not to be taken seriously.
Katie Couric(D), ... All Pedophiles. Using leftist logic here. Those are the rules.
Under Critical Diversity Theory, they are blocs of equitable color and class.
Lasagna isn’t supposed to be swimming in sauce. I think the shallow bowl is the wrong way to present it. It’s like admitting you’ve made a mess of it and you think your guests are messy. That’s the wrong message, but I would interpret it to mean that Jeffrey intended to send the wrong message
Katie's no Oylvia Nuzzi.
Turn the page...
Ugh, I DEPLORE the idea that women have to support each other in the workplace because of vaginas or something like that. I got a heavy dose of this when I was a paralegal in a big law firm. I guess I didn't need to support MALE attorneys in the same manner - only FEMALE attorneys needed my special attention. Because - VAGINA!
Yeah thats not the point of lasagna he didnt have a decent cook but then again...
Food and wine magazine says: Pasta bowls are better.
https://www.foodandwine.com/bowls-are-better-than-plates-11688771
The Kill shot: "Many hot takes are just for provocation, but when I tell you that almost all plates should be replaced with bowls, I really do mean it. Nearly every situation involving a plate would be improved if the plate were a bowl instead. Bowls are the superior choice on not just a practical level, but an aesthetic, personal, social, and moral one, too."
Petty and stupid.
Not eating a steak from a bowl, sorry.
It's all been downhill since we abandoned the trencher.
If you can't eat it with a fork and knife off of a slab of wood, you probably shouldn't be eating it.

Yeah but not lasagna. Lasagna is structured in layers and you want to be able to see that and you want to be able to cut into it. it shouldn’t be a jumbled mess like a bowl full of penne or spaghetti
Perky Katie in a catfight was once Appointment TV. Parched, arid, desiccated Katie in a catfight is mee-ouch.
I have to admit that there was a time when I thought that she was cool. I got over it.
Good lasagna should be eaten right out of the can.
I was just noticing today that I eat mostly out of big bowls now that it's just me. I thought I'd better eat some room in the freezer for turkey soup, and what did I pull out: turkey soup from last Christmas.
Master, how do we know that Trump does not eat Lasagna from a shallow bowl? Foolish Grasshopper! If Trump ate a thing from a shallow bowl it would be an act of great injustice, and therefore widely known.
“Good lasagna should be eaten right out of the can.”
In the underground you unscrew the protective basket on the light bulbs in the break room, Put in your can of beanie weenies or lasagna and screw the whole mess back on. When you are back after lighting off your noon shot it’s all warm under the pop top.
Yeah. And MEN are the real creeps!
Wasn't Katie "America's girl" or some BS like that.
The curtains are pulled back, the lies are revealed, the unfettered corruption spills forth, now open calls for sedition by prominent Democrats ring out - it's obvious the American Empire is in decline.
Does the article dwell on all her dinners with Epstein?
it's obvious the American Empire is in decline.
…current administration demonstrates that all it takes to reverse the trend is for voters to reject bad policies 😐…
This is why "All About Eve" is timeless.
A bowl, i.e. a pasta bowl, is pretty platelike. It's more a plate with a lip than a bowl-bowl. You can see the layers of lasagna. It's a perfectly fine choice for serving. It does get a little complicated, dish-wise, when in a family setting you're also serving salad - do you serve the salad on a side plate? In another bowl? Do you have enough dishes and room in the dishwasher? (Bowls can be a dishwashing challenge.) You certainly don't want to put the salad in the lasagna bowl.
Maybe six months before selling our house and beginning our merry rounds of short-term rentals while we figure out where and how we want to live next, I replaced my dishes. What I ended up with were, for us, perfect: smaller scale than the giant Pottery Barn ones we'd had for the previous almost twenty years, plain white so they'd look nice with lots of different table decor, the plates possessing a distinct rim for containment while still being flat on the bottom (it is hard to eat a steak in a bowl), the bowls deep and nicely sized for either sitting on a table or being held in a hand while eating ice cream in front of the TV (something we don't really do but my in-laws enjoy). I did have to buy some oversized bowls for the large main-dish salads I like to make. But alas, they're all in storage now.
I should add that our current short-term rental has woefully inadequate dishes. The knives are pretty good, surprisingly.
Share what she knows is crapola, not lasagna. She and he went to high schools together to implement "programs," hosted galas together ... did a whole lot of creepy nonprofit and social stuff together. Word was she was enamored of him on the Robin Hood Foundation board seats they shared.
She's just trying to justify her crush on a pimp and pedophile.
I still recall her snake-charming, doe-eyed interview with Sarah Palin where she successfully won the day. Oh how I hated her for that interview. But then I watched Savannah Guthrie (I think that the name) pull the same dark, flute-playing/snake-charming interview of Nicholas Sandman from Covington High School where she tried to mesmerize him into apologizing for smiling at the obnoxious Indian guy and I had a new champion.
lasagna(n.)
"dish of cheese and large noodles," as loseyne, losenges, by late-14c. The modern spelling appears in Italian dictionaries by 1590s. From Italian (plural is lasagne), from Vulgar Latin *lasania, from Latin lasanum "a cooking pot," from Greek lasanon "pot with feet, trivet."

I, for one, stopped caring what person replaced what other person behind the desk when Chet Huntley retired, leaving David Brinkley and Walter Cronkite and the tag team of Frank Reynolds and Howard K. Smith, lightweights all in comparison. Chet retired to develop Montana's Big Sky ski resort, one of the most delightfully sensible and productive retirements I can recall . I've seen recordings of the original anchorman, Edward R. Murrow, with his paid-for cigarette smoking away in an ash tray on his desk during the news. As for the big haired and much less competent news anchors (definitely not anchorwomen, as that is somehow a slight to them versus being called a dead weight), Jane Pauley has had no peers, including the gamin Couric, whose historical references should always include having her name used as a measure for the size of a BM on South Park.
Oops, I meant Jane Curtin. I must report that my mistake was accidental, but cromulently apt.
Did Couric mention the lasagna and the china used? I also note - perhaps apocryphally, but I recall reading it somewhere - that a newbie Time magazine reporter was told to always include what was served for the meals at events such as US / USSR summits, even if they didn't have any new "news" to report a week after everyone else published in daily newspapers or nightly news shows, simply because it gave the report an air of detailed, insider knowledge to the readers. Hmmm. Couric knows that, too. And it means exactly the same thing - she is peddling old news with no new information and trying to make it sound like she knows more than she actually tells. Why didn't she ask the underage girls what the hell they where doing at such a place? Wasn't she a reporter?
I'm sorry I didn't see this yesterday, so forgive the late comment, but I read Couric's memoir, which was unintentionally revealing in so many ways, and none more so than in her Sara Palin anecdote. The beginning of her story really surprised me, because Couric immediately recognized what a special talent Palin was. Then Couric's story became even more surprising, because Couric immediately realized that it was her mission to destroy Palin, and she figured out how to do so. No interest in understanding who Palin was, how she got there, and what her beliefs were; no, it was just destroy Palin, and Couric was extremely proud of herself for having found out how to do so and doing it.
This book looks like a candidate for George Orwell's suggested honest review:
"“This book does not interest me in any way, and I would not write about it unless I were paid to."
