BehindNYNews 143 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Her contract is up in early 2014 and obviously won't be staying at NBC. The article essentially says CBS News said they don't want her. I wonder if ABC would be interested. Maybe she can work along side Martha Raddatz internationally. I don't see her on CNN unless Christiane Amanpour left or Fox News. http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/whats-next-for-ann-curry_b206975 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5278 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 It's funny, I was just looking through some old threads, and noticed a comment from about 4 years ago (near Gibson's retirement) stating ABC didn't have a lot of depth, and could use a big name to pad the team. Now, I feel they're loaded with talent (male and female). For that reason, I don't think ABC would be interested. Look at Katie Couric, too big a name in the crowd, and now she's gone.

BehindNYNews 143 Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 Look at Katie Couric, too big a name in the crowd, and now she's gone. Katie is an ABC News corespondent but she was never really on ABC except for The Year (last year) and Election Night 2012 checking social media. And I think it's telling that she is not doing The Year again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asomrjsurf 6 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Yes but could she be a Anchor again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5278 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Yes but could she be a Anchor again. Yeah, for Yah-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I almost said that with a straight face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides her week on GMA, I don't think I saw her a day on World News, 20/20 or Nightline. (Yes she was considered at ABC News but never actually there). Yeah, for Yah-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Bordering on overcrowded. Now, is AJAM really willing to pony up 12+ million? Or maybe Curry would take a pay cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Yes she was considered at ABC News but never actually there). She appeared on World News a few days after her ABC debut to promote some story. Never saw her appear again.

MidwestTV 1173 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I think she would go to CNN or maybe even Fox News. If all else fails, I can also see her staying at NBC on the condition that she gets some more air time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A3N 996 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 If I had to bet, it would probably be between CNN or Al Jazeera America. No way she ends up at ABC, CBS or FOX. Plus, she has a history of working for/with Jeff Zucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabceyewitness 767 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 She appeared on World News a few days after her ABC debut to promote some story. Never saw her appear again. She also did some Nightline or 20/20 specials and filed a few reports for GMA. The problem at ABC News is that they don't know how to handle a big name that arrives from outside their network. Look what happened with Christiane Amanpour. "This Week" tanked, they made her "global affairs anchor" and to let her go back to CNN part-time.. now she's basically back with CNN full-time and is rarely on ABC.

They never should have brought her to anchor This Week in the first place. She's an international affairs journalist, not a political journalist, and while she was host, the show turned into an international affairs show.
