THE PARANOID PEACOCK: Yesterday, New York magazine reported:

Ann Curry was gone but not gone, which created a situation of spectacular awkwardness. Any trust that had existed between Curry and Today was shattered. When Robin Roberts left Good Morning America a month later to get treatment for MDS, Curry asked NBC if she could tweet a note of sympathy for the ABC co-host. NBC said no, afraid she was trying to aid the enemy. In late July, when Curry was assigned to cover the shootings in Aurora, Colorado, she refused to appear on the air with Guthrie, believing Bell was trying to exploit the event for image repair.

Today, the London Daily Mail adds, “Matt Lauer ‘believes NBC set him up for a fall with airing of Sandusky interview and now trusts no one.'”

Can’t be much fun inside 30 Rock these days.
