Katie Couric Is Done At Yahoo

That means that her interview show, which featured talks with figures like DJ Khaled, Bill Gates, and many in between, is also coming to an end, along with the rest of the online news content that she served as anchor for. Oath is the Verizon-owned company that oversees Yahoo, and a spokesperson for the company gave Couric a flattering sendoff in a statement: Couric’s signing with Yahoo in 2013 was big, high-profile news, as a famous TV star signing with an internet company would be, but there was tension between Couric and the site for not “properly surfacing” her work. Still, Couric and her team churned out an average of almost 60 videos per week during her tenure, and Oath says they’ve also generated almost a billion video views. Her contract with Yahoo originally expired in March, but was recently extended to June. Before she decides what to do next, Couric has plenty on the table as it is – an eponymous podcast a cooking/travel show on FYI, and a web series entitled Full Plate with Katie & John, with her husband John Molner.
