Kathie Lee Gifford apologizes to YouTube Divorcee

Kathie Lee Gifford says she didn't mean to say that the YouTube divorcee, Tricia Walsh Smith, should be "whacked" on Thursday's "Today" show, which prompted Smith to go on a rant attacking Gifford in her latest YouTube posting! In the video, Smith was livid at Gifford for suggesting she get "whacked" during a time when Smith claims she is getting death threats.

This morning on the show, Kathie Lee explained that she only meant top matchmakers should take a "whack," as in take a try, at setting Smith up with a new man now that she is divorced. Kathie Lee commented, "I was trying to help her find love! I don't know how I get in trouble ... I do apologize to her." Kathie Lee also issued an on-air invitation to Smith saying she would love to have her on the "Today" show anytime. Get Smith's rant HERE!

  • I think this is a waste of time and air space no one really cares what this woman gets. I think Kathy Lee said what alot of people are thinking enough allready just shut up and move on.

  • I think Kathie should be quiet. I personally don't like her to much and her husband who did cheat on her as well. she is no position to say anything about marriage to anyone.
