Katie Couric's Cheesy Attempt at 'Schoolhouse Rock'?

CBS has a reputation for attracting the AARP viewer, so you can understand their lunging for the youth audience. But Katie Couric introduced a new segment on the CBS Evening News Friday night called "Fast Draw." That name fits. The drawings are extremely crude and done in Magic Marker. It looks like a Brownie Scouts project. The first episode in this project explained Super Delegates (see video). I actually like and support "Explainer" segments on news programs. There's not enough of them. But they can be done in a way that doesn't suggest to the viewer that they're in grade school.

It doesn't help Katie's image that after this crudely homemade "Schoolhouse Rock" segment, she exclaims "Now I get it!"
