Oprah Joins '60 Minutes' Room for Tamron Hall Too?

Television

Last week's news that Oprah would be joining CBS' venerable "60 Minutes", as a special contributor, came roughly at the same time Tamron Hall was leaving NBC.

Oprah, who is known for her incisive interviewing skills, will definitely add a much needed punch and vitality to the long-running show. Oprah's contribution to 60 Minutes may also bring viewers who hadn't followed Oprah to her cable network OWN.

However, the shock of Hall leaving NBC made TCC think, why wasn't Hall going to 60 Minutes? Clearly, Hall has a news background and has conducted hard-hitting interviews on "MSNBC Live with Tamron Hall".  Perhaps Hall isn't interested in doing another news program and wants to try something completely different. As a Vanity Fair piece indicated, "she was very excited about her next chapter." TCC hopes this talented journalist lands somewhere soon.
