The Resume

    (August 8, 1958- )
    Hostess/Anchor on 'Today' (1989-91), 'America Tonight' (1994) and 'Inside Edition' (1995- )
    Won two Emmys
    Autobiography is 'Back on Track: How to Straighten Out Your Life When it Throws You a Curve' (1997)
    Wrote the children's books 'I Don't Want to Sleep Tonight' (1999) and 'I Can Fly' (2001)

Why she might be annoying:

    She suffers from depression.
    She told the Chicago Tribune, 'If, for personal financial reasons, a reporter finds it important to work an outside job, I think he or she should certainly refrain from reporting on subjects connected with the outside job.' (reported November 21, 1989)
    She was paid to do a mock TV news program called 'P.M. in the A.M.' in which she tossed softball questions at Philip Morris (P.M.) executives under the guise of news (1989).
    The show was pro tobacco and thus one wonders about the quote in the Chicago Tribune.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She won Georgia's Junior Miss (1976).
    She graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Georgia.
    She overcame the media chastising her as hungry as a shark for taking over Jane Pauley's job on 'Today.'
    This was unfair because it was neither her decision nor did she step on others to get it.
