GABBY Gayle King’s anchor gig at “CBS Mornings” is hanging by a thread — due to slumping ratings and her failure to best her broadcast rivals, insiders dished. Gayle, 67, recently marked a decade with the network. But sources snitched her $11 million-a-year contract is up for renewal and spies said news honchos Neeraj Khemlani and Wendy McMahon are aiming to ruthlessly slash budgets! “To be expensive and have no one watching isn’t a winning formula in the TV business,” squealed an insider. The tipster pointed out despite Gayle’s talents, the show is still languishing in third place behind NBC’s “Today” and ABC’s “Good Morning America.” The anchor snagged her current mega deal in 2019.

But fully vaccinated Savannah soon found herself relegated to broadcasting from home after she tested positive for the bug! One well-placed TV insider dished, “There are a lot of staff members laughing about this. Karma is a bitch. Savannah got what she deserves. “Everyone is working so hard to make sure they follow the rules, and Savannah throws herself a party.” The source called the out-of-touch anchor’s shindig “tone deaf,” and added, “No one is surprised this happened.” But the insider also bashed the NBC bigwig’s “reckless…
