According to Yahoo news, the 55-year-old Curry’s departure was an emotional one, and not her choice:
Curry—who will remain at NBC News as a correspondent and anchor-at-large—told USA Today that it was not her idea to leave the show, which recently lost its lead in the morning-show ratings war with ABC’s “Good Morning America.” It was NBC’s.
“For all of you who saw me as a ground-breaker,” Curry told viewers, “I’m sorry I couldn’t get to the finish line.”

55 year old, Ann Curry’s quote when she was let go as news anchor on the Today Show…”I know I am not to blame for the ratings worries. And my bosses have said to me there are many factors involved. There is no doubt that the rating wars have become meaner and less focused on our responsibilities as journalists.” Debi Drecksler’s question is…How come co-host, Matt Lauer, born in 1957, is not being replaced?? I smell a little female age discrimination with this NBC decision.
Totally, absolutely unimpressed with NBC and Matt Lauer.
A disgusting choice. Ann was the classiest part of Today.
Ann Curry is the epitome of consumate journalism. She is the constant professional even on her last day of the Today Show. NBC gave her a raw deal and I can only say ”Shame on NBC”.
not sure how to change my post from “anonymous”…..but I so agree with all the fine things said about Ann Curry!
Let’s all boycott NBC news…..then see how they like their “ratings”
