OK, this is killing me. Katie Couric has made I Want Media Inc.’s “2006 Media Person of the Year” list of ten media personalities to vote for.

My question is, why is Katie Couric on the list representing the evening news genre, but not Brian Williams or Charles Gibson (since both have higher ratings)? While there has been a lot of “media buzz” about Katie, there is clearly nothing that justifies a nod for 2006 (even with the blogging). Maybe in 2007, but definitely not in 2006.

If Katie *has* to be on a “media” list for 2006, why not put her up against Rachael Ray (not that we have anything against Rachael) in a perky/peppy category, thus clearing out two spots on the list?
