To Charlie Gibson, with Compassion
(image via abcnewsstore)
You're a good man, Charlie Gibson; keep that head up:
The Motherfuckers. Where was the love?
Here: Have a cold adult beverage, bro; you deserve it.
You've given nothing but blood, sweat and tears to the alphabet network, and they didn't regard you as worthy for "World News Tonight." Aint that a bitch.
As if that isn't bad enough: NBC announces -- obnoxiously -- that the "Today Show" has been number one for a decade.
Nice guys finish last, Charlie. Maybe you ought to raise a little heck, you know?
Everybody loves you. Sure, going out gracious like Koppel has its appeal.
But, keep in mind, you have leverage stronger than a contract. This is a definite Jane Pauley-Deborah Norville moment. If you want it to be.
According to Ken Auletta's New Yorker piece:
"Sawyer and Gibson seem genuinely to admire each other; both are rich, happy, and not leaving anytime soon. 'Charlie and I every few months wander into each other�s office,' Sawyer told me, 'and we ask: Is it time to leave?' In unison, they say, 'Not yet.'"
How now, Charlie?
