After 26 yeras at NBC, Hoda Kotb's final episode on the Today show aired on Friday, January 10 - however viewers were left fuming over an unwanted interruption to the 'hoda-bration.'. The legendary anchor, 60, was presenting her last show she prepares to leave the program after nearly three decades at the network when the program cut to breaking news of Donald Trump.

I feel like we only have a finite amount of time']](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2025/01/10/16/89272195-14271429-The_mom_of_two_revealed_she_made_the_decision_to_move_out_of_New-a-26_1736526240226.jpg)
Trump, 78, was officially sentenced in the New York hush money case involving porn star Stormy Daniels on Friday, with the news interrupting Kotb's last episode of Today on NBC. Furious fans took to social media to share their outrage. 'Trump's sentencing interrupting hoda's last show i'm going to scream this is a new low,' one scathing post to X, formerly known as Twitter, read.

'Sorry… my final hodabration was interrupted by breaking news about TRUMP IM GOING TO GO CRAZY BRING BACK MY HODA AND JENNA,' agreed another. 'They cut into Hoda and Jenna (Hoda’s last show) to give an update about Trump’s sentencing and I’ve never seen a special report where they read so fast. I wonder if NBC News was like “get back to Hoda ASAP!!!”' complained another.
'Not NBC interrupting the Hoda-bration to talk about Trump sentencing.... Have some respect for my girl Hoda,' slammed someone else. Hoda Kotb has been a welcoming face for millions of Americans over the past 17 years while serving as a co-host at the Today Show.
