ABC News president Kim Godwin reportedly said during an editorial call that the relationship was “an internal and an external distraction” and that “while that relationship is not a violation of company policy, I have really taken the last few days to think about and work through what I think is best for the ABC News organization. And so, for now, I am going to take Amy and T.J. off the air, while we figure this out.”
