Unlike Palin, Katie Couric may not be a Guardian reader

The most annoying website on the internet, TMZ.com, stages a daring ambush of Sarah Palin's mean and nasty inquisitor, Katie Couric, on the streets of Manhattan, and demands to know what newspapers and magazines she reads. At first, as a joke, Couric echoes Palin's catch-all response, which as we established here last week proves that the Republican running-mate is a Guardian reader. Then Couric says she reads the Economist. Everyone lies about reading the Economist, but Couric says that while everyone lies about reading the Economist, she actually does. This is probably a lie, too. [via Wonkette]
