Steph has stated several times on air over the months that she is not pregnant. I do know she loves food though.  :bleh:

And that she is single.  :bleh:
I thought she was married?!?
She was engaged at one point in 2006 when the press release for announcing A&B came out. As far as we know, she's single and didn't go through with the marriage.
Ohh ok..I had just read in a bunch of places on the internet that she was married,and she was apparently talking about her "husband" recently on tv..that's why i was wondering

I woke up with Al.  It's not bad, but I do have one beef: some graphics are horrifically not 4:3 safe...the travel segment at :20 past had the cities' names completely cut in half because it was not framed properly.

This whole "on the road" setup isn't something they've bothered to perfect. Things will be better when they return to their normal setup Friday. (except for the weird camera angles they use on Al's big touchscreen TV. They really should stop using the handheld camera for that; it keeps cutting off the whole left side of the TV screen. Just stick to the frontal, stationary shot or frame the TV up properly with the handheld.

Agreed, it's too shaky how they are doing it now. Don't know where they got that idea, and as you said, part of the screen is cut off at least for SD viewers (not sure if you can see it on the HD feed).

That's a big bummer for us. I don't get why so many viewers would want to watch Al Roker.

ONLY 8million?!! Thats a hell of a lot more than what they were getting. Sheesh im a little surprised its that high.
"First Outlook,” the current weekday 6 a.m. show, drew 185,000 to 228,000 viewers last week."

That I find a bit hard to believe. If they hold onto that, ill be surprised.   I wonder how they count this. Are they saying a lot of people actually watch WUWA for more than say 10min?
