Ann Curry was given 5 minutes in the 8 o'clock hour to say goodbye.
Uh, which, I'm guessing isn't the highest ratings time for them...
Anyway, today, Savannah Guthrie was announced as replacing Ann.
The Hollywood Reporter was the first to report SG's hire - not Bangs and Cupcakes
who was hot on the Hota Kotb trail.
Jim Bell, The Today's Show Executive Producer had this to say about Savannah...
"She has a one-of-a-kind combination of sharp wit and approachability, and our viewers value her journalistic skills and legal background just as much as her humor and charm. She can effortlessly go from interviewing the Secretary of State to jumping Olympic-sized hurdles on the plaza. I’m thrilled to welcome Savannah as our newest co-anchor, and along with Matt, Al and Natalie, we’ve got the best morning team in the business."
