On the NBC evening news tonight there was a preview of a report by Ann Curry and another photographer, documenting the crisis in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. The full report will be shown during "Rock Center" with Brian Williams.

It was a very brief glimpse, but I believe Ann had her Leica around her neck. Not that this should come as any sort of surprise...

Here's a shot from her first visit there a few years back:

From what I can tell, Ann is actually a serious photographer, not just a poser. Look at the image of her photographing the Dalai Lama - good technique on her part.

I saw her on TV overseas somewhere with an M9 not long after they first came out - it seemed like she knew what to do with it, judging from the way she worked with it.

In a world of celebrity posers with Hermes M9s, she's a breath of fresh air.

Anyone else annoyed at the way Ann Curry got shafted by NBC?

Basically, the anchor Matt Lauer and she "weren't the best team" and the show's ratings were slumping. So they basically tossed her out in favor of Savannah Guthrie.

Puh-lease. Ann Curry's better than them anyway - you go, Ann!

I wouldn't know about these things as I don't have a TV hooked up to anything other than the internet via AppleTV and a Xbox.

Interesting...

Quote:
In the wake of the Colorado shooting, Ann Curry has been tapped to co-anchor "Today" this weekend along with Savannah Guthrie ... the woman who replaced her as co-host of "Today" earlier this month.

According to NBC, Curry and Guthrie will be traveling to Aurora, CO to provide "special coverage" of the massacre.

Matt Lauer will not be making the trip.

Curry's final day hosting "Today" came on June 28, after weeks of speculation about her ousting. Guthrie was named her official replacement the next day and took her first official turn next to "Today" fixture Matt Lauer on July 9.
