About this ebook
Ann Curry: The Unauthorized Story of Why She Was Tossed From NBC’s ‘Today’ is the latest work from bestselling author and former E! Entertainment television host Michael Essany.
In this compelling, brief, and hugely topical insider account of the backstage drama unfolding at NBC, you'll learn how Ann Curry was treated by NBC executives, how she may truly feel about Matt Lauer, parallels between the Jay Leno and Conan O'Brien late night meltdown of 2010, Regis Philbin's possible "Today" comeback at Hoda Kotb's expense, and what the future holds for Ann Curry and morning's television's most venerable news program.
