Billy Bush Discussing Exit From NBC Because Of Donald Trump Lewd “Access Hollywood” Tape

Four days after the broadcast of the "Access Hollywood" tape that many have considered lewd, Billy Bush is finally working out the terms with NBC for his exit from "Today."

According to the two reliable sources, the exit of Billy Bush is now just a matter of "when" and not "if." The time of his departure will be announced "in the coming days," said one of the sources. In fact, Bush is already effectively gone from the show.

His name is already stricken out from the graphics of the 9 a.m. hour on the first two days of the week. Additionally, Bush and his assistant were nowhere to be seen in the office. It appears that NBC is acting quickly to prevent more damage and restore the confidence of viewers.
