Charlie's Angels

l to r. Paula Zahn, Campbell Brown, Amy Robach

The buzz on the TV newsfront is about to get a little interesting. As of Friday, rampant speculation that there was going to be a few face changes over at NBC and CNN, turned out to be very true. TV Newser reported that Campbell Brown was moving out of her NBC Weekend Today anchor slot and over to CNN. Meanwhile, over at CNN, it appears that Paula Zahn is being given the axe. So who is pointing at who? Does Paula Zahn know she won't have a job anymore at CNN? The New York Post wrote a blurb in Page Six about her possible departure.

Amazingly, as expected, news about this surfaced rapidly in every online news media outlet and blog over the weekend. Unfortunately, Zahn is left as the one being kicked out the door.

Truth be told, I am a fan of the Today Show. This weekend Amy Robach was co-anchoring with Lester Holt. Campbell Brown has been "off" for the past two weekends.

Amy Robach is being eyed as the replacement for Brown's Weekend Today anchor-spot. The NY Post reports that Robach "is a former beauty queen who made a career stumble a few years ago when she wore an overly sexy dress to a party with network brass". Nevertheless, I am sure in the beauty pageant she must have answered the "what do you want to be when you grow up question? Her answer was that she who wanted to become a typical blond former beauty queen turned journalist- blah blah blah. I wonder how many anchorwomen are former beauty queens?

Meanwhile, poor poor Zahn! BTW- according to the Zahn wiki, she was also a Miss Teenage American Pageant finalist in 1973. I remember Paul Zahn back in the day when she was the anchor for ABC World News. She was young and sexy back then- full of energy. She has become hard edged and cold on CNN. Not a friendly face- like most of the other anchors on the network.

Zahn has made the rounds at CBS, FOX, ABC and CNN. Where oh where will she go now? MTV? HGTV and anchor House Hunters? Maybe she will do a gig at Carnegie Hall. Little does everyone know, except die-hard fans, that Zahn is also a cellist!
