The Daily Beast

Since Thursday, Susan Zirinsky has had to deal with the fallout over a Page Six story that alleged that Gayle King pushed out O'Donnell from CBS This Morning, which she called "100 percent false." She's also dealing with the persistent rumors that O'Donnell will take over for the struggling Glor and move the CBS Evening News broadcast to Washington, D.C., where O'Donnell's husband owns a chain of restaurants. “It’s hard. I get it, but you have to stay focused," Zirinsky told CBS Evening News staffers, according to The Daily Beast. “When there’s something to tell you, I will tell you...When we’re ready, we’ll do it.”
