    I think the today’s show is great. Your producers sure keep it interesting. The only think I would like to know is “who on earth is Lenney”??? I see him every day in the crowd and I feel he must work for the Today Show. Please let me know if this is true. Ed Pabst

    Its not what you said…..its how you said it.

    Most universities have, as a part of their mission and goals statements, the desire to graduate students who have developed critical thinking skills. In part, this is evaluated by the student’s ability to do such things as develop a clear argument; to show evidence that he/she has avoided jumping to obvious conclusions; to demonstrate the ability to articulate a view point logically. Andrew Meyer has missed the boat on demonstration of critical thinking skills. He obviously took the time to bring some questions forward for senator Kerry that were provocative, though he admits he got his ideas from a book……..so in the end, that’s not impressive at all. His lack of skill in debate was less troubling than the aggression he showed. Did he not consider the culture in which he lives? This culture, in which very recently college and highschool students have brought guns to their campuses and killed people at random? This young man was out of control. He may be intelligent. He may have had something meaningful to say. It doesn’t matter………delivery is everything. He needs to go back to critical thinking skills 101, and perhaps a debate class wouldn’t hurt either. The fact that he thinks this incident was about his “right to speak”, while he ignores the fact that he presented himself as a very hyper, immature, out-of-control young man, speaks volumes about his lack of insight and refusal to self-reflect. Even more repulsive: his mother and father, who, naturally stood by his side…..reinforcing behavior that I’d be willing to bet, is nothing new.

    Who was the beautiful lady who Natalie interviewed today. She wrote a

    Just want to say,after many, many years of faithful viewing we [women in my area ], are being so turned off by your line up , 2-3 hrs.of Ann ,and Natalie is more than most can take. Matt and Mereadith seem to do less and less .JENNY? Same stories on both shows,same people for way too long,hate to say it, Racheal R. cooking show is a better choice, and we hate to cook! For what its worth, we are very disappointed. HODA is great, dont over use her!!!

    Question to Ann: Does the air freeze on your face/lips when outside?
    Can you actually feel/sense the cold even though you have adequate clothing on?
    Also: LOVE the glasses on Anne’s broadcast from Antartica - can you tell us where to buy???

    It is GREAT that you are going extreme to bringing awareness about global warming. The football commentary in the dark last night was great. It amazes me that every person in this world isn’t doing everything they can to help with this problem. There are so many things that people can do to help but so many just don’t care. But this is the BIGGEST problem and I don’t hear media addressing it. There are too many people in this world. Everything boils down to too many people. Carbon dioxide from cars and planes is from too many cars and planes emmitting it. Why? Too many people are using them. The population just keeps growing which increases the need for more flights, cars, urban sprawl, over-fishing, and selfish people that treat our earth like a sewer. When are people (like that couple you had on a few months ago that had 18? kids and WANT MORE) going to start taking birth control and start caring about what is happening to our Earth. Do they care? When is overpopulation going to be addressed as a serious problem? It is the #1 reason that global warming is happening.

    I just watched the show on “Giada’s Having A Baby”. I couldn’t hear most of the announcing. Would you be kind enough, if you have to use background music at all, to keep it very low so that it doesn’t overpower Giada’s words? Thank you.

    Interesting series on Global warming, arctic, antarctic, Greenland glaciers…………. but, .are these scenes
    being faked ????…..e.g. no exhalation fog or breath, despite
    supposed sub-freezing temperatures, no rosy cheeks drippy noses, frost
    on faces, equal simultaneous lighting at N and S pole, instantaneous transmission
    and program coordination…..no problems, amazingly no relay time delays in conversations or waiting
    waiting for connections………….. We see our breath in Florida if temps
    in high 30s or even 40s ……So far, almost as many errors as Al Gore’s
    alarmist propaganda pastiche. Last night Matt was in front of a make
    believe Igloo, close to zero temp, but we noticed no breath fog, signs of
    near extreme cold, clothing inappropriate for supposed temp.

    Please check the comment that was made today that if you use a hybrid SUV in stop and go traffic that you don’t use the hybrid motor.

    I believe the opposite is true and that city mileage is better because of the electric motor and that the highway mileage is worse because the electric motor is not used but is being carried along.

    I am trying to do all I can to go “green” I am slowly trying to replace all my lightbulbs to conserve energy type. They are suppossed to last much longer; but I have had to replace the “new” ones at least 4 times in the last year. Could they be faulty? They’re much more expensive which I can handle if they last as long as they’re suppossed to.

    i feel so sorry for any of you poor people who are actually spending hard earned money on the hype coming from this hoax. Let the Al Gores of the world spend the money they have stolen from you on thes lies. Use your common sense and only do things which are REAL and REALLY help the earth, and you do not need an AL GORE to tell you! the american people need to remember where to look for What. Poloticains are not sientist. Actors are not doctors. News programs tell you who shot who, who won the ballgame. They do not tell you how to live.

    Congratulations to Giada on her pregnancy, but ENOUGH already. There are millions of pregnant women not only in this country, but in the world who do not have Giada’s money, celebrity or pilates trainers. If you want to do a segment on pregancy, please talk about the lack of good pre-natal and post-natal care for women who are far less fortunate than Giada, and how this problem can remedied.
    I returned to watching Today when Meredith Vieira joined the cast (she’s real and delightful). Your cover story this week on “The ends of the earth” was fantastic and thought-provoking. Kudos to the lovely and kind Ann for relentlessly wanting to stand on the South Pole. I hope she makes it there and back safely.

    I am getting tired of the Today show. Matt Lauer is transparent in his support for Hillary Clinton. Too bad the news shows don’t just report the news anymore. I want to guess how news people stand on their politics not have their opinion in every interview they do. It was obvious this morning he is supporting Hillary Clinton. I wonder what’s in it for him if she is elected? Maybe he can sleep in the Lincoln bedroom for free?
    Just report the news. Try to get two good opinions on the issues. NBC seems to have all Democratic commentators. I’m sick of it! I’m not going to watch NBC anymore! Go back to basic journalism!

    My complaint ,is when Matt, Meridith, Natalie, Al are introducing a segment, the background music is so loud, you can not hear what they are saying. The music drowns them out

    I saw the segment on reducing back pain. They mentioned one of the best ways to reduce back pain is actually by natural methods, including working on the front part of the body. I found that interesting, because I saw this great youtube video just the other day on a simple method using these techniques to reduce back pain and relieve muscle tension. I think if you go to youtube and do a search on how to reduce back pain, it will show up (I don’t know if I am allowed or not to actually liste the website address here, some blogs are picky about that.) But it is a very interesting yoga technique of just laying on your back and doing a few simple moves and breathing. I would highly recommend checking it out. I liked it because any size can perform it. So, even if you are overweight, it can be done. Anyway, I agree with the segment on the show today, stating that natural ways are the only real way to reduce the normal back pain from strain and stress. I really think stores that are selling all sorts of back products and expensive mattresses are just a big scam for the most part. Some products of course, like massagers, and better ergonomically correct chairs are of value. But on the other hand, there are so many products available for sale that really don’t have the person’s back as their main interest, but instead have their wallet as their main interest.

    Commenting on Nicholas H. Kalvin MD 11/5/07. Dont ruin the fun for everyone!! Your life must be miserable to think Matt went all the way to the North Pole just to stand inside and fake a scene. Are you really a MD? Give the Today show some credit. They have done some amazing things and I applaud them. If you think theyre faking everything then go watch something else and dont ruin it for the rest of us who think Matt, Meredith, Al, Ann and the rest of the crew are great and give us all a look at the world that most of us cant go see ourselves. And as for Elizabeth Hester, even the news casters can have their own opinions, or must they have yours to be accepted? If you want more than just one opinion go to the grocery store, you’ll get it! Or are you chicken? You wouldnt know what to do if someone was against you in your face. Thats why you have to knock someone on the tv. Anyway HURRAY for TODAY!!! You are all wonderful. I dont always agree with what your saying or airing but we all have to have our own opinion or we are fighting for freedom for nothing!! My prayers to the soldiers and their families!

    I ws watching Today Weekend and I must say I was extremely dissapointed by the co-anchor with Lestor Holt. My husband begged me to turn it off. He thought she was self absorbed and she was almost screeming at some of her guests. We both really enjoyed Campbell Brown and will miss her. I understand the need for the change however, you need to get someone who interacts more with the co-anchor and is not so self absorbed it seemed like Me, Me, Me. Ego centric is a good word to describe Jenna. Pass the critism along do something.
    I had talked to some of my other friends and they stated the same thing. So, it’s not just one person there are many who feel the same way.
    Please consider other possibilites or at the least talk to this person.

    I love the TODAY SHOW and have watched since the beginning of it’s conception. There is a subject that I would love to be addressed in a special news segment by Matt and Ann. I would like to know what the candidates will do about the ruthless IRS who falsely and maliciously prosecute innocent tax payers such as myself. After 7 years of investigations and 4 Grand Juries I was finally indicted by the 4th in which only the IRS and FBI testified. Imagine that!! After a year of hearings I ran out of money to pay my attorney and he was appointed by the court but not until the judge looked at the prosecutor and told him that he had not shown him a thing and that if he were persuing Al Capone in this day and age he would have exceeded the costs spent on persuing me and that he had exceeded what the government had spent on Bill Clinton and that is in the court transcripts. My lawyer advised me that the judge was warning me that I could never afford to fight this and he took me upstairs and I was handed a plea agreement. After a year and 1 day sentencing I spent 10 months in Victorville, CA womens camp. Upon coming home July 1, 2002, I had received a Notice of Deficiency for the year I pled to filing a false tax return. I hired a forensic accountant who filed an appeal in the Las Vegas Tax Court and after 4 1/2 years of the IRS getting continuances a D.C. Judge said no more and set a date of January 29, 2007. The attorney for the IRS was shocked when he called me, I told him that I fully intended to be there and would be with many of my stockholders and investors who had stood behind me. I received another call form him within 10 minutes telling me he had spoken with his boss in D.C. and they would be sending me a Notice to Concede they could not go to court. I signed it, it was filed, the judge filed the DECISION and it was over. I received a package from the IRS attorney and low and behold was a couple of memos written by him to another agent that this case could not be tried due to Grand Jury Irregularities. I sent a copy of this to the judge alond with other documents and he set aside his decision and Ordered the case be remanded to him and set a hearing date in the Las Vegas court. On October 30, 2007 I prevailed over the IRS and they admitted to the memo but said that Ms. Balck was never to have seen it. I now have a very good attorney and the next step is to over turn my conviction and sue the government. Do you knoow how hard they make that on you? After they financially and emotionally ruin you, they force you to hire an approved investigator who puts the evidence together to ask the government permission to sue them. Do you know how hard it is for someone in my position to raise that kind of money? You may not want to put this on your comment site and I would not be offended but I want to know what the candidates opinions are about the out of control IRS. Bill Clinton had Senate hearings but the Bush administration has focused on nothing but thee war for oil. Will Hillary contiue Bill’s pursuit against this agency that is not even a part of the Federal Government? A loyal veiwer who would love to see you have this story exclusively. Lorraine

    I am a truckers wife and I was watching the Todat Show on nov.13th. The story about the three kids that got killed by the truckdriver. My heart goes out to the family. From the trucker side of trucking, They would not need to drive over their hours of sirvice if the rate for the freight would keep up with the price of fuel. The over head for running a truck has made it almost imposable to make a profit. We are thinking abuot geting out of trucking for that reason. My husband has driven for over 23 years. From company truck to having his own authority. We need some big change to trucking. The news is always talking about the high gas prices and how it will hurt the people at the pump. Do not forget about the truckers. We put 200 gallon in at a time. When we started with our own truck in 2001 fuel was $1.00/gl. now it $3.35/gl. and the price for freight is the same as when we started in 2001. The truckers need the help of the media to make the industry change.

    I agree with Stacey on the plight of the truckers because of the rampant price gouging engaged in by the oil companies.I believe price controls should have been imposed and possibly, the oil companies either seized or prosecuted under the RICO statute. President George W. Bush (Hitler) is largely to blame for this. This administration, is seeking to turn the American worker into little more than slave labor and what the policy of allowing the price gouging at the pump is a perfect example of why it is almost necessary to break the law in order to feed one’s family while in the profession of trucking. I think the final straw will come if Mexican truckers are ever allowed free roaming of our country,then it will be WAR on American highways. Is that what the Bush administration wants, a war on American highways because Mexican Truckers are allowed to come up here and steal jobs from Americans? Bush should NOT be allowed to finish his term but be put on trial for treason, official misconduct, war crimes to name a few. Let’s take back this country while we still can.

    I was watching Matt’s interview with Drew Peterson. Play the tape back. He states that both relationships were very romantic when they started. Then, after the babies were born,
    something happened, both women became “Hormonal, Depressed”. This is a case of a Jealous husband, unable to accept the attention his wives were giving to their children in normal, daily parenting. He may be very controlling. In the last segment, He’s 30 years older than Stacy. Old enough to be her dad. Did I hear you say they named one of the kids “Lacey”, how sick is that. There are to many weird coincidences.
    I pray that the 3rd wifes family gets the truth about the death
    of their daughter, sister, mother. I pray that Stacy is safe and
    gets the help that she needs to feel and be safe to live a productive life and be the mother of her children.

    I think that media types,ie,Matt Lauer.should stick to what he knows best ??????????? and leave the Perry Mason stuff to the people who are qualified,The law.I’m not impressed with amateurs trying to be lawyers or police interrogators.I also feel that its wrong to try people in the press.This may be a case of a cop being guilty but it’s still not the job or the obligation of the madia to convict him!!

    on Nov 14th, 2007 at 6:16 pm

    Interesting interview with Drew Peterson, if amateurish. Bottom line is although in most such cases the husband is the initial suspect care should be taken not to pre-judge. Husbands are not always the perpetrator.

    Matt’s question as to how Peterson can prove his innocence was totally out of line. Our constitution does not require anyone to prove their innocence. Suspects are innocent until proven guilty. Innocence is an assumed right granted by the Constutution. Guilt is based upon evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that a person committed a crime.

    In this case I have seen no evidence meeting those standards that would lead anyone to believe Peterson has committed a crime. That evidence may be forthcoming, but the media rush to sensationalize the situation does not enhance the criminal justice system in this country, nor does it get to the heart ot the matter. Evidence leading to the truth.

    As for Mr. Peterson’s desire to have the media leave his family alone, I doubt that this interview will accomplish that goal. In fact, it will likely encourage more coverage. Hard to believe that he didn’t know that. But as I said that’s just bad judgment, not evidence of guilt.

    To World,
    I watched the story of the army officer who surprised his family by returning from Iraq unexpectedly. I sobbed so hard, as I am doing now.
    My father was in the Navy during the Korean War. It may interest young people to know that we had no computers and no internet in those days. Many, including my family, had no telephone or television. The only way to communicate was through the mail. I still cry uncontrollably when I read some of the sweet letters my daddy wrote me. Through them I know the young man that my father was then. (My dad died nearly 20 years ago, at age 71.) I remember going down to the harbor to meet his ship. There were hundreds of people waiting for the sailors to come down the gangplank. Everyone was crying. I missed my daddy so much and was so afraid for him and for me when he was gone. I was afraid he would never come back.
    We lived in a quonset hut and my brother and I went to school at David Farragut School. Both the quonset hut and the school are gone now, part of 32nd Street base here in San Diego. In school, we had air raid drills. The war was very real to me. My daddy told us we were in the Navy, too. My job was to get my little brother under the bed if bombs were dropped during the night. For years I was afraid of airplanes flying overhead.
    I am very glad for the support military families have today. My mother coped with so much alone.
    I noticed the difference in the reactions of the older and younger boys. Young children do not understand the reality of death. The younger boy asked his dad why his mom was crying. The dad’s answer was that she was happy. Well, she was also immensely relieved. She had her husband in her sight and just an arm’s reach away. I’m sure she’ll want to keep it that way for the next two weeks.
    I have more to say but I’ve got to stop this flood of tears for the children whose dads are overseas and for the girl I was in the early 1950’s.

    I am sure that Hoda is a wonderful person, but I have noticed that she is very interruptive when on the air. She doesn’t let Natalie or Meredith finish speaking when she uncontrollably chimes in with her own comments. She also interrupts the guests before they complete their sentences. She keeps the conversation from being harmonious. I love her energy level, but she needs to take it down a notch.

    To Meredith,
    On Today’s show, there was a piece about Baby Boomers having dual advocations/passions. As a Trial attorney I am still looking for my Chapter 2, However my husband is a 51 6′4 GQ doppleganger for the 50’s actor Jeffrey Chandler. As Counsel for A&S and Bloomies and seeing male models for GQ and upper scale male fashion magaziines and print I know that he is exactly what the Baby Boomer generation aspires to (physically). On 11/26/07 , this segment on Baby Boomers having more than one carreer revealed a male 55 plus Black school teacher who also works as a runway model. Could you PLEASE find out for mr the name of his modeling agency??? As a fellow New Yorker, Please I know that this is his calling, Thank you

    The Today Show website is difficult and cumbersome. I couldn’t write down the ‘5 phone numbers’ and instead of just seeing them listed on the website, I have to register for a blog/forum in order to get them. Why make this so difficult? You certainly have lost points with me.

    Brad Pitt=MORON!!!!! Why on earth would I want to donate money to rebuild homes right by a levy that ruptured during Hurricane Katrina? Why do you think a majority of the population has NOT returned to that area? Let’s see-probably because they have discovered that they can, and do, have a much better life elsewhere!!!!! Brad-Sorry to say I have a feeling you are NOT going to get the financial backing that you would like. Some of us have brains between our ears. Go back where you came from!

    I just want to let you know that I love your show! I have been a citizen of this great country all my life. I have had in the past and have today, many family members and friends who are of various military, and religious backgrounds.
    My question is this:
    In this day and age when our people are in debate whether the words “UNDER GOD” should be removed from our pledge of allegiance, due to the “separation of church and state” and prayer has already been removed, why then is there such a “to do” concerning the religious background of our presidential nominees?
    This leads me to another question:
    On the same subject:
    Why is it that in a courtroom witness who are called to the stand are asked to swear that they will tell the truth “SO HELP ME GOD” and when the president is sworn into office, his hand is placed on a BIBLE?

    I was just listening to all the psycho-babble about the young man who shot several people in a mall in Omaha,Ne.- The one thing that was NOT mentioned was all the “crap” coming out of Hollywood- I feel that the Hollywood crowd plays a significant role in the degradation of society-I’m sure that I am not the only one that feels this way! I quit going to the movie theatre years ago-I will never put my hard earned money in the pockets of the people who think it’s O.K. to produce films about brutally killing a person,etc. This is NOT entertainment people! You all need to boycot the Hollywood crowd and do something creative with your time!

    I don’t think we have to worry about radical Islam harming us here in the states-we are doing a great job on our own! Someone has now gone into a church and opened fire on innocent people. Thousands of people are killed in the United States every year from homicide and senseless killings. If Barrack Obama feels that there needs to be a change in Washington D.C., I’d like to hear what he is going to do about gun control!!!!!!

    One more thing! Barrack & Oprah= the blind leading the blind! I’d like to hear what your “vision” is for our country Barrack!!!! Anyone can say they have a “vision” for this country. “I have a vision for this country! There you go- I said it! I guess this means I can run for President! What are you going to do about the borders & illegal immigrants(and yes,they are ILLEGAL). What are you going to do to get companies to move back to the U.S? We have Bill to thank for “outsourcing!” China is already laughing all the way to the bank! When you have something to say that has any substance,then maybe I’ll listen. Right now I’m hearing nothing but hot air! Oprah-Your head is too big for your shoulders!

    I agree with Marcia Livingston. The issues are not the Iraq War. We must stay till they are stable. There is no question about that.
    The issues are the illegal aliens in this country. Our Social Security is being robbed by the illegals. The members of the Senate and house that voted for an upgrade in their Social Security need to upgrade ours to theirs. The same for all of us, then and only then will they do the right thing. The outsourcing is a disgrace to this once mighty industrious nation. That is gone. We are a tech nation, no longer a service nation and we are losing money by the second. The Chinese will take over as the powerhouse because they work their people to death from what I understand. I’m not a knowledgable person about these things but this is my and many others perception. The congress has let us down for the last 20 or so years. I’m negative about this country and have almost lost hope for it. With the athiests seeming to win over their point, the runners up won’t stand ground against abortion, everyone has a plan, no one writes their own speech or use their own words. Nothing has changed. Who will bring back right to life, prayer and/or meditation in the schools. Who has the courage to stand against these leftists.

    I can’t stand it anymore - I watch the Today show each morning, and have for many many years. Hosts come and go and most are engaging, interesting and a pleasure to listen to - however, the new female host recently appearing on Sunday mornings is so loud, caustic, rude and irritating I have turned off the program. Her comments are often inappropriate and rude and often immature. she interrupts her cohost and guests with poor timing and silly comments. Her personal commentary is loud and egocentric. Please give her some constructive feedback - listen to yourself!! my mother would never allow such behavior.

    Today Show is the most alive, enjoyable news show on the air. All on the show work well together and bring this program class. I have watched for years and the times the TV happened to get turned to another stationed I was able to tell from just listening. The Today Show has an energy to it that raises it above the rest. You give me that down home feeling that I’m listening to a friend in the morning. Way to go!

    Everyone in todays world is an expert on anything that will make a fast buck. If the public would just stop buying all the trash out there and giving attention to them, they would have to get a real job. Leave Tom and his family alone and go write about yourself so that we can pick you apart.

    I found Merediths interview biased from the start. I like Meredith, but this is the first time I saw her start an interview with an AGENDA from the start. Her agenda, to try and prove the guy/Morton, was bad or lieing - whatever….instead of running an interview normally and just asking questions, her harshness was so annoying, I almost changed the station. It was as if she wanted favor from Tom Cruise’s people “just in case they were watching”, wouldn’t it be nice for her to get an interview from Him. Come on…..how about just a peaceful interview, instead of one that read like a movie script with a criminal sitting at a lie detector machine. I thought Merediths take on this interview and her decision to run it so harshly was very very poor taste.[/color][/size]

    By the way, I’m a fan of Merediths….now very dissapointed. I’d like to challenge Meredith to interview someone from Scientology in the same harshness, no less, than what she gave Morton. I would wager she wouldn’t dare…..thus proving my point……very poor unprofessional interview

    This is my comment on the Kathy Griffin speech at the awards this past couple of weeks. I don’t know if anyone of you commented on her or not as I missed some of the shows. Well who does she think she is? She is sure one of the DEVILS children. Does she not believe in Jesus Christ? From what she said she should be dropped from all shows as without Jesus Christ she would not have even been there and from the remarks I am so ashamed of her being on a show and saying what she said. Please have a program to let people know of all the ones like her saying terrible things about our one and only Savior, Jesus Christ. It is not right and the viewers sure saw her. Be ashamed yourself. Let this be known forever for JESUS, Thank you, MN

    I wish someone would do a store about JOBS that are being lost to foreign countries. The US is in a recession and CEO’s continue to send more and more jobs overseas, while they continue to make their millions from their salaries and bonuses. Eventually their will be only $10.00 an hour jobs in this country and no one will have money to buy anything. Without manufacturing jobs a country cannot survive.

    The interview with the pageant girl and the lipstick on her dress was the most annoying, useless piece of info ever put on TV. Who gives a crap about her and the team of investigators and police now trying to solve this haneous crime. Oh please, she had to put on her game face and hold her head up high and just go on. Well I cannot say enough how much that was unworthy of any type of interview at all. People have children with special needs, children dying, parents dying….. I can see if she was injured by someone. I never emailed a TV show or gave my input on anything in my life, but I couldn’t stand to see her and her Mom on such a reputable show. Matt seriously interviewed her as if it was a serious topic.

    It seems like your have hired a gaggle of wonderfully talented people to (replace Katie) but then have them on such a tight schedule that half the segments end with “we’re almost out of time……” I realize time is money in your business, but not giving guests and/or hosts time to even give a good “tease” about the subject, product or event for me is stressful programing.

    I have been “with Today” since the Dave Garaway days and Mr. Muggs would not have made it back to his “mark” nine times out of ten, if he had had to meet the time demands of todays programming. Slow down and give all of us a chance to relax and enjoy the various segments with some depth of coverage.

    Just wanted you to know that upon the recommendation of the interview with Matt, we saw “Undetectable”. It was the most sick movie we have seen in a long time. There was no indication in the interview that it would be so violent. Please, in the future, make some notification that there is extreme violence in the movies you promote. That would be very much appreciated.
    We watch your show every morning. Thank you for listening.

    This message is for Dr. Nancy:
    Yesterdad I watched you in a very interesting issue abaout the bold people, and the possible cure for that.
    I would like to have some kind of link with those researches, because I think I am the one who all my life ( I am 62 years old) dream with something to at list release a little bet my problem, and I offer my self for testing those products on my scalp.
    When I was 9 years old I got an infection and since then I have in most part of my head deads folliculs, and will give my life for have the pleasure to comb my own hair and no to a wig as I have done my entire life.
    Can someone put me in touch with Dr. Nancy forwarding this e-mail to her?

    Your show continues to be great. Honestly can not compare it, I never watch the competion. Only negative, and very irritating. At least a couple of times a week a guest commentator on some very interesting subject is talking a mile a minute. This morning a very nice looking lady talking with Ann Coury, speaking so quickly I stopped paying attention. A day or so ago, do not even remember the subject was speaking so fast it was amusing that someone could talk that fast. I stopped paying attention. Meridith Vieira’s dad practiced on Allen Street here in New Bedford from what I understand. She’s right, not even a close call Patriots will win, Matt will pay. Meridith could bet anything, first born, million dollars, doesn’t matter she’s going to win. I am 66 years old and retired and a Today show fan since a child. Some will say I have not yet grown up, but that is another story. You folks monitor the competion, are they any good? Richard Fabio

    I was appauled by Matt Lauer’s inverview with Hillary Clinton. He asked her to comment on a photo only the viewers were able to see, of her with a “friend” of Barak Obama’s. How unfair. I would prefer that morning anchors NOT bias their reporting, or their favoritism to issues or candidates. I look to all news programs to REPORT the news, not hint to us who we should vote for!

    Do you have any idea how irritating it is to watch a segment of your show and watch you hurry through with your eye on the clock? No one ever has time to finish giving the information they want to give. Do you give us credit for such short attention spans? I, for one, am insulted. And I think you insult all your guests too. It is very frustrating and therefore hard for me to watch. So, mostly I don’t. As I work outside the home, I don’t have time to watch, anyway. But when I retire later this month, I plan to check out your competition to see if they give their guests any more time than you do.

    We are newly retired and watch the Today Show almost every day. We like the guests, but we can only guess what they are saying because you all talk over them and all at once. You ask them a question, especially Natalie, and then you just keep talking. Why? This morning was especially irritating with you all outside and all four of you talking at once. We enjoy the content of the Show, but think you should address this issue. Thank you.

    I think Ann Curry is sugar sweet and when there is a food segment, she never even taste anything. She is too thin, so when there is a segment on weight loss I cannot relate to Ann at all. To me Meridith is what a woman should look like and I like her a lot. I think they should get someone to do the weight loss segments instead of Ann.

    I, like other viewes are appalled at the style of interviewing by members of the Today Show.

    Case in point Hillary Clinton. Meredith, I do think your interview was biased. You could see the disdain on your face and how you were grilling Hillary hoping to bring out the worse in her.

    As far as Matt’s interview, why did he give Barack a PASS- why not put him on the spot as well. Something is awfully wrong- and I think it’s called a ‘double standard’!!!!!

    Meredith I think life has jaded you a bit.
