- description: Billy Bush has been suspended from The Today Show following the recently published Trump tapes. Word on the street is he’s never coming back. Cenk Uygur, Grace Baldridge, and Brett Erlich, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. http://tytnetwork.com/join "Billy Bush, a host on the “Today” show who has received stinging criticism for his role in a video with Donald J. Trump, has been suspended by NBC. The NBC executive in charge of “Today,” Noah Oppenheim, wrote in a memo to his staff members on Sunday that “we’ve all been deeply troubled by the revelations of the past 48 hours.” “Let me be clear — there is simply no excuse for Billy’s language and behavior on that tape,” he said. “NBC has decided to suspend Billy, pending further review of this matter.” It is unclear how long the suspension will last. Mr. Bush was at the center of an explosive 2005 video that was released on Friday, in which he is heard laughing and goading Mr. Trump as they engaged in a vulgar and misogynistic conversation about women. The news of the suspension is a reversal for NBC News, whose executives maintained throughout the weekend that it had no plans to discipline Mr. Bush and that he was expected to address the controversy on Monday’s program. But in the two days since the video’s release, there has been a strong social media backlash, including hundreds of angry comments on his Facebook page, many of them from women. Mr. Bush released a statement on Friday saying that he was “embarrassed and ashamed” of his role in the recording. But he added, “This happened 11 years ago — I was younger, less mature and acted foolishly in playing along.” “* Read more here: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/10/business/media/billy-bush-to-be-absent-from-today-on-monday.html?_r=0 Hosts: Cenk Uygur, Grace Baldridge, Brett Erlich Cast: Cenk Uygur, Grace Baldridge, Brett Erlich *** The Largest Online News Show in the World.
