Today’s Drama Is So Yesterday

Somewhere in this world Ann Curry’s wishing the earth underneath her feet would just swallow ’er whole and spit ’er back out once the drama surrounding her exit from the Today show has finally died a thousands deaths.

Which is seems to be doing.

Following Matt Lauer’s recent nine-months-later admission that Curry’s departure from the morning show coulda been handled way more gracefully, a new player has been brought into the mix: Anderson Cooper.

The silver fox reportedly has been approached by NBC about replacing Lauer, and – get this – Lauer is said to have called the CNN superstar to say he better don’t.

The Peacock, for its part, is denying ringing up Cooper for the job and is standing by its $25 million a year main man, Lauer.

Oy with it already.
