Katie Couric has been on television for quite some time, having been a television host for all of the Big Three television networks, which include NBC, CBS, and ABC. However, her former colleague on NBC's Today show, Bryant Gumbel, painted a surprisingly negative picture of Couric, even though he did not specifically name her. During an interview with New York Times Magazine, Gumbel admitted to feeling underappreciated while his co-hosting mate got all the credit.

"I do think the comparison is a little unfair in light of the fact that I won in two different decades with two different cohosts," Gumbel shared, adding, "I won with different executive producers, I won with different studios." Not naming any names, the journalist went on to express that one of his former co-hosting mates wasn't as pleasant as everyone thinks. He claimed that the host "went through five [assistants] in five years" while he only had one, and that the person "who shall remain nameless" also went through "three or four" makeup and hair people. A Today insider told the Times that Gumbel and Couric, who he is widely believed to be talking about in his interview, were not the best of friends, admitting, "I don't think either of them wanted to spend much time together."

After the New York Times Magazine interview was released, Gumbel walked it back a bit, telling the New York Post that he and Couric have "always had a good relationship."
