Today fans are ‘REFUSING’ to watch show ‘until Savannah Guthrie is fired’ as ‘feud’ with Hoda Kotb continues
TODAY show fans have revealed that they are refusing to watch the morning program until host Savannah Guthrie is “fired.”
The boycott threat comes as Savannah and her co-host Hoda Kotb are rumored to be feuding behind the scenes.
As details about the hosts’ alleged feuding have come out, fans have been keeping a close eye on the pair as they watch the morning show.
Viewers have been noticing “awkward” tension between Savannah, 50, and Hoda, while others are blasting them for acting like “squabbling children.”
Some, though, are refusing to watch the show at all amid the rumored feuding.
They’re calling for the firing of Savannah before they return to watching Today.

“Turned TV on. Saw [Savannah] Guthrie,” one annoyed fan tweeted. “Turned TV off. She’s not welcome in my home.”
They added in explanation of the boycott: “She’s been rude to guests and co-hosts.
“Never quite liked her on-air personality, but lately she’s been over the top.
“I like having @TODAYshow on while I’m doing other things, but I’ll pass until she’s gone.”

A second shared: “No @todayshow for us since @SavannahGuthrie joined.
“To think she calls herself a journalist is laughable.”
Even though Savannah and Hoda, 57, appear friendly toward each other on TV, a source close to production recently revealed to The Sun that the co-hosts secretly “can’t stand each other.”
The insider added that Savannah “thinks of herself as a real news person,” while Hoda is seen as “the lightweight that drank wine with Kathy Lee Gifford.”
As the rumored feud continues, fans want to make sure that if the show decides to get rid of one of the hosts, that they get rid of the “right one.
One viewer told Today on social media: “Heard Savannah has an issue with Hoda.
“I sure hope you poll your viewers before you give in to her as most viewers cannot stand her and feel she can be replaced with Craig [Melvin].
“She comes across as self centered and self righteous.”
A second added in agreement: “Savannah seems to think she is the most important.”
A third wrote: “Hoda is like watching your mom give the news.
“Savannah is like listening to the sorority girl trying to control everyone and not seeing she is doing nothing but annoying everyone.”
Many fans have pointed out that whether she is on with Hoda or other co-hosts, Savannah seems to have the same “rude” behavior toward everyone, and they want her “fired” from the show.
One TODAY fan simply wondered after watching the morning show on Tuesday: “Why is Savannah just so rude all the time…”

Another blasted at the 50-year-old host: “You treat Hoda, Carson Daly, Craig Melvin, and everyone else on the show like s**t.
“Stop interrupting people and being rude. You ain’t all that. You need to go.”
