Months of media chatter about Ann Curry’s role on the Today Show<\/i> is finally coming to a head as the New York Times<\/i> reports<\/a> that “secret” planning is underway to replace her after a year on the job. The secret is definitely out now, with Brian Stelter noting Curry has hired a high-profile lawyer to broker her transition at NBC, potentially to a foreign-correspondent spot.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, with Matt Lauer in contract limbo, New York<\/i> reported on his importance to the network’s ratings amid Curry’s “rocky transition”<\/a> into the co-hosting duties previously held by Meredith Viera but never quite perfected since the departure of Katie Couric in 2006. (The Times<\/em> also happened to publish a huge review<\/a> of Curry’s performance today, examining her “on-screen distance” and its effect on the show’s ratings problems.) Lauer signed back on for big money<\/a>, but soon after, Today<\/i> lost to Good Morning America<\/i><\/a> for the first time in sixteen years (and then again<\/a>). Curry “got her dream job, and she doesn’t want to let it go,” one source told the Times<\/i>, but as with any breakup, part of her knows it’s just not working out. Today<\/i>‘s 9 a.m. co-host Savannah Guthrie is already being floated as a potential replacement.<\/p>\n
