    She wasn't fired was she?

    I'm guessing someone who has been doing this as long as she has can get past this... Or maybe they're looking for a reason to get rid of her...

    In all years of journalism, I have never met anyone with bigger egos than TV news anchors. That includes professional athletes. This incident is just one more example.

    So what if an intern crossed her path or her co-anchor was sleeping at the wheel. Shit happens. Deal with it professionally. To me, she sounds like a person drunk on her own success. How dare you cross the great Sue Simmons!!!

    And are these people so tied to the TelePrompter that they can't improvise a little when things go wrong? Can they not think for themselves? Doesn't say much for their 'talent.'
