Two months ago, Hoda Kotb announced that she was leaving Today in the new year. Today, she announced her last day will be January 10th.
So, who will be sitting in her chair next to Savanah Guthrie during the two hours of Todaty on January 13th? That person is Craig Melvin! He will continue to host the third hour with Al Roker, Dylan Dreyer, and Sheinelle Jones.
“We are beyond thrilled to have Craig step into the co-anchor chair,” Libby Leist, senior vice president of TODAY, said in a statement. “He’s been an integral and beloved part of our family. From breaking news coverage in the field, to presidential interviews, to multiple Olympics and Super Bowls, Craig’s shown he has the talent and the range to cover all that we do here at TODAY. And he does it without ever losing that Southern charm.”
NBC News also said they have not yet found someone to replace Hoda in the fourth hour. So, they will have different people trying out for the spot on Jenna & Friends.
Who do you think should get the job? I hope they go with a comedian.
Back to Melvin. I think he is the perfect choice for the job. What do you think?
Watters: I was not invited to my mother's house for Thanksgiving. Apparently there wasn't enough room. She said it was a scheduling situation, and then invited me to come over on Black Friday. I told her no thanks, I'll be at Best Buy pic.twitter.com/J84VNXunlV
Jesse Walters comes off as a huge dick with a tiny dick. In other words, he is not someone I want to spend time with.
I am not the only one. His mom, who is a Democrat, feels the same way. Yesterday, on his show, he shared this story, “I was not invited to my mother’s house for Thanksgiving. Apparently, there wasn’t enough room. She said it was a scheduling situation and then invited me to come over on Black Friday. I told her no thanks, I’ll be at Best Buy.”
I think it is appropriate that she invites the black sheep into the family for Black Friday.
Walters is starting to feel the if you fuck around, you find out! Boy, is he in for a lot of that in tne next four years. And they will be coming from that orange turn he has been worshipping.
While Walters has no place to go for Turkey Day, I do. I just wanted to rub in the fact that my loved ones want to be with me, unlike his.
Connie Chung is one of the most respected journalists to have ever graced television sets. There is nothing not like about her.
So much so that there is a marijuana strain named after her. She told Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie on Today that is the most amazing thing to come from the Connie Generation.
Then she explained to them why it was named after her: “Because I am easy to grow. I’m low maintenance.”
Then, the co-hosts asked the legendary anchor if she had brought some with her. Sadly for them, she didn’t, so she told them to go online to get some.
And that is what I did. It is described on AllBud as: “It is a popular choice among the more seasoned users. With a moderate THC level ranging from 14-20% and a variety of cerebral side effects, including intense focus, energy, and creativity, it’s a great choice for any patient who needs to relax, but still needs to be functional. Because of these positive side effects,”
However, there is one side effect they don’t mention. If you smoke too much of it, you might be asking her husband, Maury Povich, to find out who the father is of the baby.
When I worked at CNN, I spoke with several journalistic legends. However, there was only one reporter who would make me fangirl when she called. That brilliant journalist is Jeannie Moos.
I never met or worked with anyone who has her wit. She is one of a kind, and I was lucky to have worked with her.
As were the people who worked with her before, during, and after me. But sadly, her reign has come to an end.
Moos announced at the end of the week that her time with CNN has come to an after 43 years.
I’m leaving the company tomorrow…calling it a day. Actually I’m calling it around 16,000 days since I’ve been at CNN for over 43 years.
I’m the shy, retiring type so I’m retiring shyly, avoiding all fanfare and lingering goodbyes. Just want to thank everyone who helped me do what I love. Special thanks to the cameramen and women whose backs I strained shooting excessive b-roll, to the editors who put up with my micromanagement during endless edits, to the makeup artists who made me look better than I actually do and especially to the producers who I’ve worked with since I first came to CNN in 1981 when it was 6 months old. Imagine being a producer and doing nothing but Moos stories for YEARS. Those people are saints.
I don’t expect to go back to packaging full-time, though might entertain quirky projects if I get bored and someone has something fun to pitch. But, for God’s sake, please…NO MORE STORY IDEAS! Any more story ideas and I’ll want to retire FROM LIFE.
Jeanne
CNN lost a legend, and she will never be replaced. There will never be another Jeannie Moos. And I don’t know if that is a good thing or not.
So, Miss Moos. I want to thank you for making the news special.
Kellie Meyers was preparing to go live from the White House on NewsNation today. Everything seemed normal until a bird flew behind her and landed on her head.
What did she do? She shook it off and remained pretty calm even though she was in shock.
Thankfully, it happened before she went live, so the viewers were none the wiser.
However, the feeds rooms was recording her liveshot, and that moment was caught on tape. So, she was able to share it with us!
Why did the bird do it? The little bird was trying to whisper in her ear that convicted felon Donald Trump is guilty as hell, and they needed to move on to another candidate. At least, that is what I am assuming.
