At the end of her first night of news reading for the CBS Evening News, Katie Couric said people across America have been asking what her sign-off will be. Katie said she really didn’t know, then showed some famous sign-offs, such as Dan Rather’s “Courage,” Walter Cronkite’s “And that’s the way it is” and even Ron Burgundy’s “Stay classy, San Diego.”

Katie urged us all to e-mail her our own suggestions. She said who knows, maybe one of the suggestions will stick.
