Billy Bush Won't Appear on 'Today' to Apologize Monday

Billy Bush will not appear on the Today show on Monday (October 10) to apologize for his role in the leaked offensive conversation with Donald Trump.

The 44-year-old television personality was reportedly going to apologize, but NBC confirms to Variety that he is being sidelined from the 9 AM hour tomorrow.

NBC is also taking heat for not immediately reporting the Donald Trump/Billy Bush audio.

“NBC News did exactly what you would expect from a great news organization,” a spokesman told the publication. “As soon as we saw the tape and made the assessment it was undoubtedly newsworthy, we moved quickly and deliberately to get it published and to do so in the most responsible way.”
