    I thought Campbell and Lester were a good combination as well. But, I was on my way out as an NBC Today viewer because Matt and the rest are reporting tabloid news. Who cares about that trailer trash reporting on the Morning Show. I was never impressed with Meridith because she is not striking to look at nor is she exciting to listen to either. I stopped watching the View and Millionnaire because she is very boring. She jokes with Matt, but very corney jokes. GOOD BYE NBC…. You had a loyal viewer

    I think Star Jones would be a better co-anchor than Meredith anyway because she is better to look at, and a better interviewer. Meredith is too opinionated and try to be patronizing. SHE IS NOT KATIE COURIC, but a wanna be. Get Meredith off the show and you will get your ratings up and your loyal viewers back. GET IT TOGETHER NBC. When Brian Gumbel left, that was the demise of the TODAY anyway. GOOD RIDDENS NBC and hello Good Morning America, (I’m Back..)

    Ok if Amy wasn’t bad enough , where in the hecht did you get Jenna from. She is brassy and that voice of hers. She is very full of herself and not at all attractive – she is a wanna-be kid. She isn’t professional at all. So let me put it this way – if Amy stays I stay, but if she is replaced by Jenna – I’m outta of here!! Campbell Brown’s leaving after you lost Soladad was bad enough. You need to find a quality person to be with a quality person, like Lester. I will be watching to see if I will be watching.

    i was happy to see her go, she just never shuts up

  • estelle

    I was watching larry King Tues. night…when he announced that Campbell had given birth to an 8 pound boy….I was thrilled to hear the announcement….it has taken me all this time to find out any news about her….

    I have watched the Today Show since the Dave Garroway days…and now…..I’m done with it…..All the good people have left…and the show has gone down hill….I can’t stand to watch it any more……All my favorites have gone so there is no reason for me to suffer through ..what you present these days…..
    Good Bye …I’m going to another network….and CNN
    Congratulations Campbell….I wish you all the best.

    I have missed watching Campbell on the Today show and also filling in for Brian Williams when he is away on assignment. I cannot believe that NBC did not put Campbell in Katie’s chair, she would have been much better than Meredith. In fact we no longer watch the Today show because we cannot stand to watch Meredith, she is rude and interupts people when she does an interview. Not only that, she has no personality and is not even pretty to look at. She does not fit in with the Today Show group at all, I wonder who made the decision to bring her on anyway? Campbell Brown is young, smart and excellent at reporting a story, we miss seeing her so much. Good luck to you on CNN Campbell and congratulations on your baby! We will watch you on CNN. We will watch “Good Morning America” from now on because the “Today” show has changed too much and it’s not the same anymore!

    I LOVED WATCHING CAMPELL WHEN SHE WAS ON THE TODAY SHOW. I NO LONGER WATCH, HAVE SWITHCED TO GOOD MORNING AMERICA. CONGRATULATIONS ON THE NEW BABY BOY. WOULD LOVE TO KNOW HIS NAME.

  • Debra K. Jones

    I saw a piece, by Cambell Brown, last night, I think it was on MSNBC . It was called “Broken Government” or “Campaign Killers”. I loved it. She is really informative, without making herself part of the story. (That’s what I don’t like about Katie Couric. It’s always about “Katie”, no matter what her subject is.) Also, I (For the first time, since ABC started using Katie Couric on the 6:00 evening news), saw a man doing the news and I can’t remember his name, but he was really good and I will probably start watching ABC again. Thank God ABC didn’t let the little darlin’ Katie, be the motorator, for the debate. I would have just turned it off, if they had. Katie stinks and Cambell Brown rocks. Good Luck, Cambell Brown.

  • Calvin

    I’m really disapointed that Campbell has left the Today Show. I hope that she does well in her new opportunity. I watched her every weekend and have been wondering when she was coming back. Hopefully, I will get to see more of her in the future.

    Kudos!!!!

  • ac

  • PO

    I hate that Campbell Brown left NBC,I think she is a lot better
    news reporter than Katie. She has natural class. NBC should
    have done more to keep her.

  • Patty

    I loved Campbell Brown and miss her on the weekend today show. She and Lester were great together. Please tell us if she’s had her baby yet. Thanks so much, and good luck to a sweet lady

    Dear CNN: I’am a decades watcher of cnn. I Think Campbell Brown is a very beautiful (cosmetically) individual, and of course very intelligent. However her attitude toward the former president (Clinton), and more specifically Hillary Clinton comes across the air waves in a clarion manner. I have never seen CNN, and many many other groups come out so negative about this woman. We all know the history, she has seen, and had it all why is she being depicted as some villian, as one politician after another falls to scandal. I believe as many Americans , we are glad to have her in the world .I just don’t understand why such a smart person as Campbell Brown, can have such power to make me want to change the channel.

    Sincerely, Anthony C. Sokoly

    I was sitting on my couch this morning, watching the TODAY show, and it just dawned on me….where is Campell Brown? I googled it and found this website. I browsed through all the blogs, and realized she has been gone since last summer? Correct me if I am wrong. So, although I really liked Campbell, you can see how much of an impression she has left on me as it is now April, 2008, and I am just now questioning where she went. I like Meredith too, but when KC first left, I was dissapointed Ann did not get the position…but Meredith has grown on me!

    Just wanted to give a shout out to Campbell Brown. You are terrific!

  • peter

    On your April 9 show you suggested your panelists of ganging up on Hillary after you asked them to comment on her campaing progress – Come on … unless you are a Hillary supporter and using CNN to promote your support for her… We have to be fair here

  • Amber Rodriguez

    Peter,
    I have to say I think she is “a Hillary supporter and using CNN to promote your support for her.” After the compassion forum she made of a number of comments suggesting that Hilary was a superior candidate. I wonder too, did you notice anything during the forum? Like how open and pleasant with Sen. Clinton she seemed. That she gave her a pass on sniper fire, the Ireland treaty, 10 million “blue collar” dollars, NAFTA support, etc.?
    I thought she did a good job keeping things moving at a good pace and making sure lots of different questions were asked. She also did a good job of putting Obama through some paces. But it sure came across to me that her expressions and demeanor were hostile-lite. She did not give the lines before and after the “bitter” comments; and on the question of euthanasia she interjected her interpretation of his response and attempted to put her words in his mouth. Of course, it is her right to be a Clinton supporter. But at the very least, she could acknowledge it privately rather than “misspeak” it publically.

  • Ellen Bogdan

    Campbell Brown is a disappointment;she can’t hide that she is a Hillary supporter. Professional women joke about this. We find her “reporting” biased and a perfect example of the press trying to influence instead of inform.

    She and you should know better!! Send her back to a J-School.

  • ohio girl

    if campbell brown was going to report the one sided news as she does on cnn, like her side kick racist lou dobbs, i would see why NBC didn’t hire her…go katie!

    Signed can’t stand Campbell Brown

  • B Seagroves

    Yet another bias reporter. If she is all of the facts on the candidates it would be refreshing to go after both with the same enthusiasm. But I have yet to find any one at CNN that has there own show that does not pick one side. They are so transparent. What happen to new shows that told the facts without personal feelings? That’s why I don’t even bother anynmore. What’s the point. I don’t need these so called reports giving me any of their opinions. I gather my own information .

  • P Hendricks

    I wish Cambell would quit bashing former President Bill Clinton. like her saying he has a chip on his shoulder.He is right about everything he said about the press. If she can’t show him some respect she needs to just shut up about him.If CNN keeps her I for one will quit watching. There are other news channels that are just as good and I won’t have to listen to her big mouth.To bad Katie Couric can’t report all news on all the stations. Now there is a winner ,she has so much class. Nothing like C.B.

  • Heather

    About the campaign coverage on CNN-No bias No bull? Are you kidding me Cambell? ALL BIAS ALL BULL. We need coverage -not your angry outbursts.

    Wher’s Campbell tonight???

  • don young

    In reference to Cambell Brown’s interview concerning Sarah Palin’s ability to govern on foriegn affairs: Was completely unobjective and Obviously Bias. Thank You for helping me to make up my mind concerning CNN , who is obviously bias and to the left of center and not even intelligent enough to try and hide it. Good Bye. CNN

    HELLO FOX NEWS!!

    too partial to dempcrats

  • Sharon Berrian

    Alma Dale, No Bias No Bull, right. You should get your facts straight about Alaska and the reason we get so much federal funding per captia! Most of the land in the State of Ak is owned by the (tax exempt) Federal Government and still more is under federal control. We have at least 6 military bases, federal parks, civilian personnel et al., Regular people like myself receive nothing extra from the federal government except restriction and incursions into our lives. All political entities, federal, state, boroughs, cities, and villiages have lobbyists looking after their interests. It’s necessary and they’re not all corupt. However, Ted Stevens and Don Young are an embarassment to the people of Alaska Sarah Palin is a breath of fresh air. She’s couragegous, honest, very smart, has integrity and would be a great asset to the presidency.

    Dear Campbell: The average wage for men in that coall mine town is 25K per year. Massey energy Co. Makes millions, violates safety laws and gets away with murder. Thanks to Bush he appointed the head of mine safety a man who used to work for Massey. The new guy has only been on board since Nov. 2009. Massey is destroying West Va., dumping sludge wheerever they want, poluting streams and ruining the economy and environment. Massey loves it though!

  • deloresburris

    Dear Campbell Brown: The average wage for men in the coal mining town where the explosion took place is 25K per year. Massey Energy Co disregards safety regulations and gets away with murder.Geo. Bush appointed a man who worked for Massey as mine safety director. Do you wonder why Massey gets away with murder? A new guy is director now but he only took office in Nov. 09. Massey has ruined West VA economically and environmentally.
