COMMENTS: The Forgotten Biden
CBS anchor Katie Couric was on the road in Ohio for a profile of the forgotten running mate Joe Biden. This was the first evening newscast story focusing on the Democrats' VP pick since his nomination in Denver. His counterpart Sarah Palin, by contrast, was Story of the Day twice last week, courtesy of Charles Gibson's Exclusive interviews on ABC (here and here), as well as being followed this week by NBC's Savannah Guthrie and CBS' Nancy Cordes on the campaign trail. Couric asked Biden to respond to Palin's criticism that the Democrats' plan not to prolong George Bush's temporary tax cuts on the wealthy would hurt small businesses: "How many small businessmen are making $1.4m, your average in the top 1%? Give me a break!"
