This October: Katie Couric admitted that she hid awkward comments from an Ruth Bader Ginsburg interview in order to “protect” the late, far-left Supreme Court Justice. But this is by no means the first time Couric’s status in the corrupt media has been confirmed in public. Celebrity Whoopi goldberg, who was twenty-four years old, called Couric a fellow anti-abortion protester and said that they had marched alongside each other.
The 29th of September, 1197 TodayCouric interviewed Goldberg about Goldberg’s new memoir. The actress spoke about her shock at learning that her 14-year old daughter was pregnant. She also shared the joy of keeping the child. Goldberg then spilled the details on marching for abortion with Couric:
KATIE COURIC So, you wrote about what choice means?
WHOOPI GOLDBERG Because we marched together, as you can see, once you’re out there.
COURIC [Feigning ignorance]Noooo. That’s not permitted. [She giggles]
GOLDBERG [Embarrassed that she just outed Couric]Yes, that is correct. They have never marched with us. That was someone who looked just like you.
[At this point Couric is staring at Goldberg who is laughing ]
Chagrined that she had just exposed Couric on abortion, Goldberg lamented, “Uh, I forget where I am sometimes.”
Couric was an a TodayThe anchor and host of the for fifteen years CBS Evening NewsFor five more. Liberal media reporters tried to convince her that she was serious journalism and not radical activism. However, the above-mentioned example shows that this is not true.
So it shouldn’t be a surprise that Couric admitted in her 2021 salacious memoir that she “wanted to protect” the liberal Ginsburg from a perceived gaffe. In 2016, the judge said this to her about kneeling athletes: “[They are] showing contempt for a government that made it possible for their parents and grandparents to live a decent life.” That part never aired. Couric cut it to protect Ginsburg, saying in the book she was “a big RBG fan.”
Katie Couric, like many other journalists in the media is a partisan Democrat who pretends to be a journalist.

KATIE COURIC: Let’s talk about the chapter you write called, ‘Choice,’ it’s a very, very personal chapter about getting a call from your 14 year old daughter telling you, “Hey mom, Guess what?”
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: “I’m pregnant.” Yes. It was shock, but it was relief when she said so.
COURIC: Then she gave you a double whammy and said, “Mom.”
GOLDBERG: “I’m gonna keep this baby.”
COURIC: So you write about choice meaning what?
GOLDBERG : Because we marched together when we got out on the streets.
COURIC [Feigning ignorance]- Noooo. That’s not permitted. [She giggles]
GOLDBERG [Embarrassed that she just outed Couric]Yes, that is correct. They have never marched with us. That was someone who looked just like you.

[Couric] tries to move on from the topic as quickly as possible, prompting
COURIC – You didn’t know what I was talking about. Can you remind me? What does pro-choice mean to you and the pro-choice movement?
