Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams reported this morning
that, "It was entirely NBC’s decision to break up the city’s best-known
local anchor pair, Simmons and Chuck Scarborough. Both contracts were
up in June. ... The station’s given Chuck three more years. Sue’s been
given the boot."
WOW!!!
"It was announced by NBC in New York City that Sue Simmons, their long-time local anchor, will be retiring in June.
Sue has been delivering the news for over 32 years with her male counter-part, Chuck Scarborough.
It is said there are no hard feelings and Simmons, ever gracious on and off camera, is already making plans.
NBC is sad to see Sue leave, however they are giving her a gift that has
been with NBC even longer than Sue: The old time clock that Sue uses!
Beautiful at 68, Ms. Simmons has been a welcome and reliable staple in many homes and workplaces...."
Which ever report is true we wish Sue a happy & healthy requirement. A time to spend more quality time with her loved ones.
Her no nonsense and ultra professional persona has always been reassurance in the way real news ought to be covered.
