Brian Stelter's book "Top of the Morning," which focuses on the behind-the-scenes stories of TV morning news shows 鈥 including "Good Morning America" and "The Today Show" 鈥 is being developed as a TV movie for the Lifetime Channel, according to .
"Top of the Morning" was originally released this past April.
