MATT LAUER should pack his “Today” show bags – and take Kathie Lee Gifford with him!
That’s the opinion of staffers at the once-invincible NBC morning show after nine jobs reportedly were slashed in recent budget cuts while Matt kept his $21.5 million annual salary.
Irate staffers are also attacking Kathie Lee, who rallied them into signing a letter of support for host Matt as ratings plunged.
“Many members of the ‘Today’ staff would like nothing more than to have their names stricken from that letter,” said a source.
“They’d like to see both Matt and Kathie Lee ridden out on a rail!
“One staffer told me, ‘A lot of people here feel betrayed. We all signed that letter, but when the shoe was on the other foot, Matt did nothing to support us.’”
