Breaking: Matt Lauer fired for inappropriate sexual behavior
Someone filed a complaint, NBC investigated, says they have reason to believe it's not an isolated incident, and fired him.
I would never have picked Matt Lauer on the sexual harassment pool.

I like how the networks are now out no-tolerancing each other. It's a purging. Who would have thought all these folks plus O'Riely and the others part of the blood letting at Fox would be fired? The news has changed dramatically over the last year. The Bill Clinton Creeper passes are being revoked.

Part of me thinks companies are taking advantage of the current climate to get out of contracts with people they want to let go. There's been talk of them ditching him for a while, for instance.

Sounds about right.

Oh, he'd have been in my pool for sure. That behavior often seems to follow a sense of entitlement, super inflated ego. Lauer displays both in excess.BigDave wrote:And the problem was that his top five Thanksgiving leftover recipes all involved sausage.USN_Hokie wrote:That's just because his show is targeted towards pensioners and moms at home with kids.BigDave wrote: I would never have picked Matt Lauer on the sexual harassment pool.

He probably asked Savannah Guthrie if she were having a good morning. Al Riker, as the last Y chromosome, should avoid interacting with ANYONE on that set!
I don't care if you're a Democrat or a Republican... if you refuse to consider alternatives to the two parties, you support the Status Quo and you are a major part of the problem.

Re: Breaking: Matt Lauer fired for inappropriate sexual beha
yea, this is nuts, accusation, completely fire or remove from everything, according to the report the accusation was made monday night, nbc investigated in 24 hours and found the proof of something. Or did Matt have an affair with somebody and the chick got pissed when he would not leave his wife or current lady (no idea if he is married or not, i assume yes)USN_Hokie wrote:Part of me thinks companies are taking advantage of the current climate to get out of contracts with people they want to let go.

Story I just read says the Variety has been working on a story about it for months and NBC knew. This was a pre-emptive strike before the story hit.cwtcr hokie wrote:yea, this is nuts, accusation, completely fire or remove from everything, according to the report the accusation was made monday night, nbc investigated in 24 hours and found the proof of something.

Looks like the only thing 1984 got wrong was the date.

Re: Breaking: Matt Lauer fired for inappropriate sexual beha
While it wouldn't surprise me if companies try this, NBC News could have gotten rid of Matt Lauer before his last contract. Rumors of his side chick list are pretty well known in the media circles. He had to publicly come out and deny the Natalie Morales affair and love child rumors.
Today Show has faced tougher competition from GMA and felt it needed Lauer to stay on top with no natural successor

Trump in a tweet this morning alluded to the death of Joe Scarborough's intern at his office from two decades ago.

Re: Breaking: Matt Lauer fired for inappropriate sexual beha
Wonder why?? Could it be because Lauer makes 8 figures a year to read teleprompters and look "good"?? He has a job literally millions could do adequately- grow a metro scruff beard and read smoothly from a teleprompter. - He's not a reporter, he's not a journalist, he is a talking head. What he was being paid is absurd.USN_Hokie wrote:Part of me thinks companies are taking advantage of the current climate to get out of contracts with people they want to let go.

14 years ago, it was the far left that was claiming Scarborough murdered his intern. Michael Moore even registered the domain JoeScarboroughKilledHisIntern.com.VTDante wrote:Trump in a tweet this morning alluded to the death of Joe Scarborough's intern at his office from two decades ago.

Re: Breaking: Matt Lauer fired for inappropriate sexual beha
That's just stupid. It's a ratings game and people liked Matt Lauer so they tuned in for him. The people that anchor the show matter a great deal, just look at their ratings after his co-host left a few years ago and replaced with the news desk person (blanking on names and too lazy to search). The incremental loss of replacing him with someone that doesn't work is likely a lot more than his salary.CFB Apologist wrote:Wonder why??

Will they get someone else, sure, will it be easy, probably not, and might take a few years.
