ABC News may be about to take one of his flagship 'Good Morning America' shows because the network is hit with widespread job losses.
Good Morning America 3, the afternoon spin-off of ABC's national morning show with the same name, lost all of his staff last week and the regular GMA team left the show.
According to Status News, which reported the dismissals for the first time, the team behind GMA3 was 'completely stripped', including the executive producer, Catherine McKenzie.
Network leader Almin Karamehmedovic is reportedly established to address staff in a Tuesday town hall, in which employees speculate whether he will tackle the fate of GMA3 during the meeting.
Despite the rumors of the industry and the fears of employees, one insider seemed optimistic about the future of the show and DailyMail.com told: “GMA3 is not going anywhere.”
Others seem less convinced and the potential ax of GMA3 comes for almost seven years since the spin-off show for the first time broadcast in 2018, when Michael Strahan and Sara Haines organized the early episodes.
The show was best known for its next co-hosts TJ Homes and Amy Robach, who were dramatically removed from the air in December 2022 when DailyMail.com exposed their illegitimate affair.
At the time, Robach was married to actor Andrew Shue, while Holmes was married to lawyer Marilee Fiebig, where the scandal was both removed from the network of the network.
But now the current hosts Demarco Morgan and Eva Pilgrim can be set for the same fate, because Tuesday's town hall with Karamehmedovic is said to be Make-Or-Break for the show.
