Yep, it is definitely SPECULATION........and ABSOLUTELY Days fans should let NBC know how they feel about the rumors.
Let me just say this. We all know that in the past, networks have cancelled some soaps for talk shows, news shows, game shows, the ones less expensive to maintain. But the networks OWNED those soaps.
In this case, Corday owns the show, not NBC. That does not mean that NBC could not renew it's contract with Corday........which would mean the lost of huge income for Corday.
Right now, the concentration has to be on NBC & Sony. I do not think any news show with ANYONE would be able to inherit the Days audience.........or even attract news junkies. The news is morning.
Decisions have yet to be made. But definitely, Heather is right...let NBC know how you feel.
