Ratings on Sunrise jumped 40 percent when Deborah joined the program, which led to her being asked to occasionally substitute on NBC’s Today Show. A documentary in which Deborah was the primary host, Bad Girls, on violent teenaged girls, was the seventh most-watched show the week it aired, according to Nielsen ratings in August 1989.
She was named news anchor on Today in September 1989. Later, Today co-host Jane Pauley announced her desire to leave the Today Show, and Deborah was named her successor.
