Today Show Not So Perky Anymore
While googling for something else, I came upon this article about some not-so-subtle changes over at NBC’s Today Show:
HOLLYWOOD - The effects of waking up at five AM every day are finally taking a toll on NBC’s “Today??? show hosts Matt Lauer, Katie Couric, Al Roker, Ann Curry, and contributor Gene Shalit. Anger erupted on the set Monday when Lauer told Couric to “shut your god damn cake hole for a freaking second??? and Shalit unleashed an expletive-laden tirade about the upcoming movie, “Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!???
Viewers are already noticing a major difference with weather man Al Roker. While interviewing fans outside the “Today??? show studios, the affable Roker asked a viewer where she was from. The woman responded by saying she was Suzie Landers from Mobile, Alabama, and she wanted to wish her parents a happy 50th wedding anniversary. That’s when an unshaven Roker said “yeah, like I give a shit!??? and then ripped up Landers’ sign that read, “Happy 50th Anniversary Mom & Dad.???
It gets worse.
