When award-winning journalist and media founder Katherine Couric drops a bomb, she can do it with minimal investment and maximum understatement, reports the State.

The target of her derision this week was the fawning adoration from a Melania Trump fan who posted a clip from the First Lady’s maligned “Melania” documentary. The clip depicts Melania riding in her car while singing along to Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean."

The person who posted the video claimed the sing-along clip, with its overlong shaky interior car-scene footage of Mrs. Trump’s feeble voice trickling out karaoke from a back seat, was the poster’s "favorite" part of the movie. He added that the scene of Melania’s uncommitted performance — interspersed with its camera phone-style shots of the rear bumpers of Trump’s expensive security detail — made her look like “a real person.”

To this, Couric, delivered the one-word response: "Riveting."

“Couric's cheeky one-liner garnered applause from several users on Threads, including one user who said the former Today show host was ‘spot on’ with her sarcastic response,” reports the State.

"I just love Katie Couric's shade game," said another user, while still another admitted she “giggled so hard” at the comment.

The State reports another fan wrote "Shady Couric is giving me life!!!" while more Threads users claimed they "could smell the sarcasm from here.”

Review aggregation website Metacritic, delivered a collective score of just 6 out of 100 from critics, in early February indicating “overwhelming dislike,” despite Amazon paying $40 million to acquire and an additional $35 million to market Melania.

The documentary appeared to be a sop to MAGA, which singlehandedly saved the movie from a total economic waste for Amazon.

Metacritic’s score of the film has since dropped to “5” as of March 19.
