"I think there's such a reverse snobbery about intellectuals that I think it would almost be seen as a badge of honor. I think that's really concerning," Couric tells Buzzfeed News about how her CBS Evening News interview would be received today. "There's kind of reverse snobbery, weirdly, about scientists, academics, elitists — whatever you want to call them," she added. "So, I think it's permeating our perceptions of what science is and what it can do for the world."
