*Sue Simmons was crushed when she found out her days at NBC New York were over. She commented recently that the transition actually broke her heart.
“It wasn’t all of a sudden,” Simmons revealed. “I had an inkling, because there was a certain length of the contract. But somewhere along the line, there were mixed signals, and I didn’t think that it was going to end, and it did.”
It was probably about that time, Sue being 70 years old.
Sue also told Joy Behar, “I was ready to go. You get yourself geared up. Mama always said, ‘never stay too long at the party.’”
And too long she may have stayed.

Mrs Sue, you look great for 70 yrs. old. Enjoy the rest of your life.
I heard that! Not too late for another career, not that you “hopefully” don’t need the money.
I never heard of her nor have I ever seen her. Perhaps that’s why her contract wasn’t renewed.

I’m sure this shook her faith in whites to the core. Sue’s not Black and probably couldn’t believe what happened to her.
