Mr. Schieffer should replace Couric.

I always enjoyed the CBS news when Bob Schieffer was the host. He just seemed like someone you could trust and he was someone you looked forward to watching every evening. They should have kept him as the anchor.

I love Bob Schieffer.

They could have easily reached out to Meredith Vieira again, but they swallowed some pride and realized that it would be akin to hiring Couric again.

Yeah, but then CBS would have had to look for someone to replace Schieffer on Face The Nation fulltime, and I'm sure he desired neither to do both or give one up. Honestly, they should've chosen John Roberts or else Russ Mitchell or Jeff Glor. Rather's replacement was in-house, but CBS wanted a big name at the time. HUGE ass mistake. Fortunately, they've done right in Scott Pelley before they forced him to depart.

Dan rather didn't get fired

Add Bob Schieffer along with Brian Williams and Charlie Gibson at the time and those men would have made a big 3 of their own. But instead they had to add Katie Couric to the mix.

Couric's not a hag but a whore. It's Diane Sawyer who's the real hag.
