NBC to pay Paris $1 million for interview

NBC has agreed to pay $1 million for Paris Hilton’s first after-jail interview, which will appear on the “Today” show with Meredith Vieira. This has pissed off ABC execs who had been banking on Hilton family friend, Barbara Walters, getting the interview.
Interesting tidbit: The VP of NBC News was quoted in 2003 as saying: “We don’t want there to be confusion on this overall policy: that we don’t pay for interviews.”
Idiots!
