I hope they serve chili at her going away party.
Way overdue. Diane’s been mailing it in for years now.
When I hear Sawyer’s name I mostly remember her unfairly upbraiding Natalie Maines for her “We’re sorry he’s from Texas” comment.
Good riddance to bad garbage.

Ahem… did anyone notice that the new anchor of the ABC Evening News is teh gay? Just askin…
Well, I like her. She’s from my hometown, and I loved that a woman was anchor of a major newscast. I also thought she was fairly unbiased.

Sounds like shes going to fill the void (if you want to call it that) left by Barbara Walters.
That bothers you?

I did not know she was from KY.

She was born and raised in Louisville, KY.
You’re 68! Get lost. Make room for someone else to move up. And take Morley Safer (82!), Leslie Stahl, Tom Brokaw, Plutarch’s copyboy, Bob Schieffer, Ms. Allan Greenspan, and Cokie Roberts with you.

Just go away. Quietly.

Ken, If you are young (under 60) then one day senior issues will be your issues. How will you feel if you are treated the way your post suggests?
The bubble headed bleach blonde retiring? I’ll never forget how drunk she was on election night 2 years ago.
Won’t miss her a bit. Could never stand her phony voice nor her obviously faux concern about nasty stuff. Enjoy your retirement, Diane…far, far away from any TV station!
JMHO, of course!
Muir is an empty suit. Gone are the days when anchors held any gravitas at all.
I hadn’t noticed and couldn’t care less.
