Michael Strahan is departing "Live with Kelly and Michael" Friday, and co-host Kelly Ripa is reflecting on how his exit was handled. She says that all people are deserving of fair treatment in the workplace. Ripa's call for respect came in response to how Strahan's exit from the talk show -- after less than four years at her side -- was handled. The former NFL star's final episode of "Live with Kelly and Michael" airs Friday, after which he will head to "Good Morning America" to be a co-anchor. Ripa's main bone of contention was that she found out about the move at the same time as the general public.
