Now that’s enough.
ABC’s ongoing investigation into its “GMA3” anchors TJ Holmes and Amy Robach continues to draw attention around their Upper West Side offices at 66th Street and Times Square studios where they shoot the daytime show.
And insiders tell us news boss Kim Godwin is getting impatient with handling the explosive situation.
“It’s been two months! It’s been two months of tabloid madness. It’s not in a great place [to be]” an insider told Page 6.
“It’s hurting his morale – not so much his skills. It’s the rank-and-file—the people who keep the lights on. Morale is at an all-time low, he added.
Staff are pointing the finger at ABC News President Godwin, who pulled the couple off the air in December because their affair became too much of an “internal and external distraction,” she explained in an email.
It’s been a new year and two months since the adorable lovebirds welcomed their viewers to “GMA3” in the afternoon. Multiple sources told Page 6 that the signs are not back on the air.
ABC’s parent company Disney’s reputation is at stake, an insider told us. “It’s one thing, but when you’re the news, you can’t be honest about telling the news — that’s part of the challenge.”
After Godwin let them go on the air without talking about the situation, he decided to screw them up and emailed us saying it wasn’t a “violation of company policy,” a third source said, adding that employees are still confused.
“Why tell people they didn’t do anything wrong and then blow them off the air? It has no meaning. “There is nothing consistent about her behavior except her inconsistency.”
The first insider blamed God’s “lack of determination” for the drama’s extension. In fact, we’re told the situation is so messed up that newly hired anchor DeMarco Morgan was practically blind when he flew cross-country from LA to fill in for Holmes during the investigation.
“They flew him in as a host the next day under cover of the night, and he didn’t know that’s why he came!” are there.
But not everyone is booing ABC bosses over the situation. “That’s great, but these things take time,” said the fourth man simply.
In fact, they paint a rosy picture of “people being work-oriented.” They are doing their job, and they are doing it well. We are still number one. We’re killing it!” (If anything, “crushing” seems to be the problem).
ABC hasn’t made a decision on Holmes and Robach’s jobs as of Friday, but our fourth source says the decision will be made in “two weeks at most!” “It must be,” they said.
Meanwhile, the crew waits for the popcorn to pop up for the next heinous scandal.
