Its fascinating how this petite little host became an 800pound gorilla for a executives. Tonights top story, ripas return nobody puts kelly in a corner. Im going to be completely honest. Im fairly certain there are trained professional snipers with tranquilizer darts in case i drift too far off message. Kellys message, a assured i got this. She walked out holding han with her exiting cohost and addressed the conflict. I needed a couple days to gather my thoughts. After 26 years with this company, i earned the right. What transpired, though, over the course of a few days has been extraordinary in the sense that it started a much greater conversation about communication and consideration and most importantly respect in the workplace. I thought she was very since the audience applauded kelly for 55 seconds. The audience was excited a couldnt wait to see her and there was some tension in the air too. They hugged each other at one point and at the end of the show. Kelly made the most of her time off. It wasnt until last night at 11 00 p. M. That she returned home from her caribbean vacation.
