You people really are a joke i honestly cant not see how if u are a true american company that is for america cannot see or report all the good that POTUS is dping for our country then you are dumber than your show despicable

. . . a 5 minute, 30 second bit presented by Paul Cunningham on the Sept. 26, 1975 TODAY SHOW and included on Disc One of the 2014 Criterion DVD set for MY DARLING CLEMENTINE. This piece is somewhat informative, but suffers from poor production values and slip-shod journalistic practices. For instance, there are no printed attributions of which local residents Mr. Cunningham is interviewing. When he talks to a settler named "Bernie Meyer" who came to this part of "John Ford Country" in 1928, TODAY does not indicate with which of the 28 most common ways Bernie spells his surname. Worse yet, when Mr. Cunningham interviews his second and final local--a Navajo--the name of his subject is not even mentioned orally! However, viewers do learn the names of a handful of these "monuments," and they find out that each local Native American child is considered "a God" when they're born. We also learn that ONE of the six film versions of the "shootout at the O.K. Corral" was filmed in a particular scruffy dirt patch shown here, but Mr. Cunningham does not specify which.

I'm not sure where you got your data about cast members, but someone needs to check it with NBC. Dave Garroway, the original host of Today, appeared on at least 2000 episodes during the first nine years of the run -- 5 days a week for at least 48 weeks a year for nine years -- but you credited him with 3 episodes. Jack Lesculie was an everyday regular on the show for at least 3 years in the beginning. To credit these men with fewer appearances than J. Fred Muggs, a chimpanzee who appeared on the show during that era, is an insult to their memory -- particularly since Muggs was biting them all the time! In those days, the program was live, so the human performers had to be careful how they reacted. Seriously, this was one of the most important programs in the early days of television, thanks largely to the work of Garroway, Pat Weaver and newscaster Frank Blair. It trained people to get up in the mornings and turn on their sets -- a habit we've continued to practice for more than half a century!

Three hours of "Today" is just too much! One hour would cover the current events and maybe some cooking too. All of the celebrity interviews and such are just tiring to watch. The celebs look worn out too cause it's so early in the morning. Also, please move Al and Anne to the head of the class. They are classy and very appealing and should be heading up this show.
