    Or perhaps she wanted to wait until Sam Champion left GMA so that she would be the only officially "out" anchor on the show.

    Robin is universally adored in the industry. In her first year at ESPN way back when, she definitely had the Softball Coach Starter Kit look going.

    Or, it could be that, despite the fact that she is in a liberal industry in a liberal city, there are some societal stigmas which are hard to overcome. Good for her.

    Gotta give Robin props in her MDS battle. My girlfriend's sister died from MDS 18 months ago. Dec 30th would have her 63rd birthday. MDS is vicious and Robin is fortunate.

    Playing it up on GMA? Oh well, Katie took the colonoscopy on live tv, so I guess all kind of shit is fair game on the morning shows.

    This isn't journalism. It's targeted gossip.

    We are supposed to not do this anymore.
    But we keep doing it every chance we get.

    The real news is when the media step back
    and stop playing it up as if it's some kind of breathless scandal.

    It's not a scandal anymore. Let the world breathe and move forward.

    But only use banana peels and beer for Mr. Fusion.
