Anyone watching Katie Couric's new show?
Anyone watching Katie Couric's new show?
Up here, it is on at 3 p.m. on ABC. I must say it is not boring and moves along quickly. She's an excellent interviewer. One day, she had as a guest E.L. James who wrote Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy. Yesterday, she interviewed Raffaele Sollecito, ex boyfriend of Amanda Knox of Seattle. Since I had already read three different books on that crime in Perugio Italy, I was interested to see how he would appear and what he would say. Anyone who has had teenagers or college aged "kids" plus their assorted friends, know that they don't always "act the proper role" during various sad events........and he explained their "kiss" and "cuddle" after the murder was discovered as simply trying to comfort Amanda. .....whereas the world wide photographers saw something entirely different. After all, they had only known each other for nine days. Perugia has a long history of strange events and strange folks as "hangers on" plus many foreigners.........such as Rudy Guidet (sp?) who is convicted of the murder and spending time in jail right now. The prosecutor also had envisioned a scenario of occultism and other wierd stuff going on..........only they know if they participated or not, however, if innocent, spending four years of your youth in an Italian prison must have been awful. So far, so good..........up to date topics. |

I wish I would have seen Katie's interview with Raffaele Sollicito. He was interviewed briefly by Anderson Cooper yesterday on CNN -- plugging the book he just wrote about the trial and his time in jail. He said he had only been dating Amanda Knox for 9 days when her roommate was murdered. I still wonder if Amanda and Raffaele were guilty or innocent. |

I can only just imagine, especially if she's never been in such a spotlight before, what it must be to have such a following now and money making book with a movie deal to boot. She admitted they were all her own personal fantasies. She has several more book ideas....for future. Katie will certainly fill Oprah's empty spot. Not sure if I will read Raffaele's book; there are so many out there now. Perhaps if Amanda writes one....I might, but last year I read the three below, mainly to get a background on Perugia and the atmosphere surrounding the murder and subsequent trial........
