Cupcake Couric $300,000 A Week Rankles Rank And File

COURIC FACES PAY CUT; DEEP LAYOFFS HIT CBSNEWS
Couric's $300,000 a week paycheck has become the obsession of disgruntled CBS staff, just as deep layoffs rock the fishbowl.

Dozens of employees -- including staff members in D.C., San Francisco, Miami, London, Los Angeles and Moscow -- are being let go, the NEW YORK OBSERVER reports.

Couric's current CBS contract expires next year.
