Okay, I am going to make an incredibly sexist comment, but it's what I really think, so what the hey...
I think Katie is another egotistical celebrity who is out for fame and success at the expense of her fatherless girls. A network anchor of that caliber is not exactly a hands-on soccer Mom. And, after losing their Dad, those girls deserve to have an involved parent. With the money that Katie has made, she could have put her career on hold a long time ago to raise her girls. I'm sorry, I know that is the dark ages, but no amount of talking about by Katie is going to convince me that anyone but the nanny is raising those girls.
