(FHOTS): The Newsday Review

I’m thinking New York Newsday‘s Verne Gay didn’t like the premiere of the fourth hour of the Today Show, or as he acronyms it (FHOTS).

“The Fourth Hour is utter glop, with no reason for being, no purpose, no intelligence, no thought, no energy, and no originality. Remember ‘Later Today,’ the third hour at the turn of the century that derailed or sidelined a whole bunch of careers? That was actually better.”
