Ann Curry paid $10 million to exit “The Today Show”

So glad you asked what I think about it. What a freaking travesty. I'd say she got $10Mil for successfully tolerating the whiner next to her, Matt! For years he has been nothing short of a self-consumed, pain to watch, why-do-they-pay-him- (rather like Ryan frm Am. Idol!)-all that-money TV host/good politic'er. Oh my goodness, 'guess I'm just spoiled by that last 50 yrs of morning show televiewing... just think about all the past AM celebrities and, just perhaps you'll be up to speed w/me, maybe not, but ... should it be re-thought?? Unlike her co-host Matt, Ann was a way classy, down-to-earth joy of genuine-ness to watch the way she so effortlessly glided thru her show. Maybe her replacement will do well and we wish her that. I think she is at the NEXT level up. She do valiantly deserves the $10mil bye-bye pckg the network so appropriately paid and hope to see her without the ML baggage and more continued success. thnx, CjRego

Hey Kelly, maybe you can get her job. You would fit right in !!

Wow! Bythebay writes a good post! I'm astounded. But she is quite right to take Irish Central to task. Just what is your definition of Irish American? Is everyone included? I've seen Ann Curry a few times on TV and I never detected the slightest interest on her part in Ireland. She obviously has some Asian heritage, looks good. But it's nonsense to call her Irish American, it's the same nonsense that The Irish Voice perpetrates with its "Irish of the Year" awards to people who never knew they had an Irish connection.

Antoinette Kelly, get a grip. Ann Curry ISN'T Irish American. She was born in Guam to Bob Curry, an American from Pueblo, Colorado who is of Cherokee, French, German, Scottish and Irish descent, and Hiroe Nagase, who is from Japan. Curry lives in New York City. She's AMERICAN. Conan O'Brien was born in Brookline, MA. He's AMERICAN.He lives in Los Angeles.

Really ,I can think of two people right of the top ,that should definitely be let go and Curry is not one of them, airheads !!!!!!!!!Who is charge there anyway ,they don't have a clue

"Frankly my dear i don't give a damn".
