“Ann Curry was gone but not gone, which created a situation of spectacular awkwardness,” the report claims, detailing how swiftly Ann’s ousting dragged the ratings of The Today show down, and how poorly the network handled her situation.

According to the articles, “Any trust that had existed between Curry and Today was shattered. When Robin Roberts left Good Morning America a month later to get treatment for MDS, Curry asked NBC if she could tweet a note of sympathy for the ABC co-host.   NBC said no, afraid she was trying to aid the enemy.”
