That title may seem like a rhetorical question (the answer being, one would expect, "Duh, go"), but it's par for the course over at Seven headquarters at present. One minute Coren was all set to vamoose the Today Tonight chair and Concerned Face™ to jump ship to CNN, and now it looks like she's not so certain the US is where it's at anymore. Where does this leave proposed replacement, Samantha Armytage? That's an issue that doesn't seem to be rating very highly on Seven's Care-Factor-O-Meter, as they're too busy to-ing and fro-ing about Coren, if Seven's current affairs honcho Peter Meakin's stance is anything to go by:

"I am scheduled to catch up with Anna tomorrow and everything will be laid on the table - we are going to start with a clean sheet," Meakin told Confidential last night.

 

"If she did get a job overseas and wants to leave then good luck to her, but she has not yet indicated that is what she wants to do.

"Any number of issues could be raised with regards to her contract, from terms and conditions, to job satisfaction, to pay - and when there is an announcement to be made we will make it."

Hang on, she's not yet indicated what she wants to do? I believe Armytage would beg to differ! Perhaps Anna woke in a cold sweat after remembering what happened when Shihad became Pacifier and tried to crack the States but instead ended up cracking the shits and returning, tails between legs, to Shihad once more and the Thursday night slot at the Barwon Club? Not that it has anything to do with Today Tonight, really, but there you go.
