4. I heard that too. They were saying employees at NBC were mad cuz they had budget cuts, and layoffs, and firings.

6. The correct spelling is "cancelled." I guess Barbara Walters might be having her "get" with Paris Hilton, after all. RC in Austin, Texas

9. Wow somehow i expected it................... Why would you pay her $1 million dollars to talk about something no one cares to hear?

10. Dear Paris,

I wish you all of the best. I hope you come out of Jail OK.
You have millions of loyal fans who love you.

11. GOOD!!! Paris shouldn't be able to profit from being a drunken law-breaker!

12. NBC did not offer Paris Hilton any money for the post-jail interview. The Hilton family and her publicist leaked a lie to the press and TMZ milked it because they love Paris. When NBC got wind of the story, they came forward and denied that they were paying her and went even farther and cancelled the interview. The Hilton family wanted the public to think their daughter was worth a million dollar post jail interview, which she is not.

13. Now we can all relax!!

14. Well, well, well. It looks as though all our outraged e-mails and phone calls to NBC and the Today show got their attention. Good for them for doing the right thing!

15. That is the best move they made. Pay for an interview with her is stupid.
