I love stuff like this. Harry Shearer has been collecting some of the behind-the-scenes minutia of TV news for several years, and puts them up on the Web. Shearer, of "Spinal Tap" fame, half the voices on "The Simpsons," and briefly a cast member on SNL, has been collecting unscrambled satellite feeds or tapes that someone in a network control room occasionally sends him.
It's especially fun seeing perky Katie Couric mildly cursing. And even though Katie's CBS ratings aren't so great, we now know that at least her sister watches her.
