They are both highly competent at their jobs.  I am addicted to"Morning Joe," so that's what I watch instead.  I've been a journalist--it's a hard job, as the world just keeps turning and things keep changing.  Sometimes the messengers get the anger---it's seldom their fault, though sometimes they do stir things up.

I have to say I have always liked Al Roker, and he reports the dramatic weather of the day, (at least in my region, I hear local weather news briefly when they cut away). I don't think they employ him to report about weather all over the country--that is the local weather's pickup.

Don't know, don't care.  I haven't watched that show in many years.

@Burnsite    On a National broadcast, he certainly should give at least a little attention to all quadrants of the USA.  Don't East Coast cities have local weather reports?

I'd be surprised if there weren't any drama behind the scenes of a major national morning show. You have to have a huge ego and care intensely about your popularity in order to rise to that level. And you have to be the best at fighting off your competitors.

Hi, Kachina,

     I would be angry if the local weather where I am is ignored, but it cuts in every half hour or so--the part where the weather-person says "and here is your local weather".

If you don't get that I can see why you are irritated by "Today."

New Mexico is gorgeous, a national treasure, and its weather certainly does deserve coverage.

@Burnsite - I'm a big Morning Joe fan also.  I watch every single day.

Sorry, but this just sounds like gossip.  Where do you read this stuff?

@gidgetgh - Me, too! I never miss a day of Morning Joe! I think that's the best show on TV. I watch it every morning, starting when it just begins every day at 5 am CT.
