The 9am hour of Today is background noise for the start of my workday, so I 
happened to have it on this morning.

Official 9-10am anchors are Hall, Bush & Roker.   Even though physically 
the obvious swap appears to be Bush for Morales, Bush is really sitting in 
what was Willie Geist's seat, so I think this is partially a move to free 
Geist to concentrate on Sunday morning, and part an attempt to rein in an 
unnecessary number of anchors.

This morning may have been a slightly different format due to a) all of the 
'welcome Billy' nonsense - including Regis, for some reason and b) the 
introduction of the new Today Show puppy (an as-yet-unnamed black lab who's 
being trained as a service dog for wounded veterans), so there was no news 
segment at the bottom of the hour.  Roker's weather updates were also in 
different spots on this morning's show - not yet clear if that's a new 
format or, again, just a abnormality.  But it seemed pretty clear that Bush 
is *not* the new newsreader.
