That, in a nutshell, is why this program will tank. When she was on the rise, she was young, somewhat cute and not too political. Now she is showing her age and everyone knows she's a Leftwing loon too. No one wants to watch that.
Actually, I am not sure I agree with that. She was in her element on the Today Show. Banal talk is what she does well. Politics aside, I have no animus for her entertainment show. -as long as she sticks to that.
