An article on Broadcasting & Cable’s Web site about the impending anchor moves at “Good Morning America” quotes KVUE president and general manager Patti Smith. The story asks ABC affiliates to weigh in on the replacement of Diane Sawyer when she takes the network’s evening news anchor chair in January.
Smith notes NBC’s smooth “Today” transition from Katie Couric to Meredith Vieira:
“They found the right person, an impeccable journalist and a terrific morning host [in Vieira],” she says. “If NBC can do it, then so can we.”
