I'm a huge fan of Betty's. I stopped watching CNN in the morning and switched to CBS. She is so attractive.

I hope that CBS realizes - it just gained a more viewers, thanks to Betty's loyal fans. Betty, I hope you enjoy your new position, and your new co-workers treat you well!

It seems like every time I watch the early show there's some pregnant reporter talking about key-lime pie and Swiffers...bring that Murrowesque sh*t back Betty, you know you fine.

I'm one of your loyal viewers but if Betty will take any airtime taht's for Maggie or Erica, I'll leave the show! Betty Nguyen should stay on Morning News not on the Early Show!
