The View says farewell to R.I.'s Vieira today
Fans of Rhode Island native Meredith Vieira will have their last chance to see her on The View today, as she bids farewell to the show after nine years.
A celebrity roast and surprise guests are planned, the show says. The broadcast will be aired live at 11 a.m. today, on local ABC channels 5 and 6.
But it won't be the last TV network appearance for View moderator Vieira, who is replacing Katie Couric as co-hose of NBC's Today show this fall. She's scheduled to start sometime in September.
Read what Vieira has to say about her leave-taking and new job in a recent interview with Journal TV writer Andy Smith.

I for one am sick of hearing about this woman. Are we all suppose to feel happy for her? She is going to have THE easiest job in the United States of America. People like this are a disgrace to the "average joe" who works much harder and will always make less money than people like Katie Couric and Meredith Vieira. Perhaps these two women should go out and work a REAL job to see what working class people go through on a daily basis.
