Katie Couric recalls the "gross comments" she's heard in her career, says she dislikes being described as "cute" and "perky"

New York Daily News

Couric joked at a women in the workplace forum that her tombstone will read "Perky No More." Couric says she found the words "cute" and "perky" to be "marginalizing." She also recalled a CNN executive saying about her early in her career, "she's successful because of her hard work, intelligence and breast size."
