    NBC News terminated Matt Lauer’s employment overnight, citing “inappropriate sexual behavior” detailed in a complaint from a colleague. The dismissal comes amid rumors that numerous news outlets were working on stories detailing Lauer’s alleged sexual misconduct.

    The New York Post reports this morning the complaint came from a woman alleging Lauer sexually assaulted her during the Rio Olympics last summer. According to the report, the woman has not been identified and wishes to remain anonymous.

    NBC News President Andy Lack said in a memo to staff that this was the first complaint against Lauer lodged during his time at the network but NBC was “also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident.”

    Something's not right here.

    Lauer was axed just 24 hours after the complaint came in. You mean to tell me that in one day, NBC did a full investigation to the point where they had enough evidence to fire dude who'd never had anything filed against him?

    Some of this sexual harassment ? has been a witch hunt. I'm just waiting for the day we're someone gets falsely terminated.

    Oooooor their behavior is more known than we know about. I can't see a woman throwing some genuinely nice guy who never harassed them under the bus just cuz everyone else is throwing someone else under a bus.

    Ok this I have somewhat of a problem with...whether he did the ? or not, fine. He's gone. Whatever. Not the point.

    But the bolded...this dude had his decades long career ended on the sneak? Unless ? occurred, if you putting it on wax to say he did xyz, make yourself known.



    The last sentence is what got me.. that they have been people in waiting who were wrong by him.. makes it seem as i NBC knew of these allegations which are a handful

    Doubt NBC would put themselves in a position to get sued by Lauer unless they had strong evidence that he did it or he fessed up to it.

    Some of yall thought that only Harvey Weinstein would have fallen?
    After the Arab Spring we have the Network and showbusiness Winter.
    Imo this is the same process. Once the ones who were deemed UNTOUCHABLE go down, all the people under follow.
    Something tells me that these people know about each other.
    Weinstein will not fall ALONE. He is already negociating to get some jailtime or penalty reduction. And we all know how you negociate with feds...

    Harvey Weinstein isn't negotiating anything. He hasn't been charged or arrested. Its all the court of public opinion fluff which amounts to nothing.

    Bill Cosby (innocent) was charged, arrested and fingerprinted with a mugshot to add on. His SECOND witch trial is coming up in a couple of months. March I think. He might spend the rest of his life in prison whereas Weinstein and Lauer get to brag about their conquests in the country club locker room and fake shame in public.

    Cosby was innocent? after almost 60 women came forward with allegations? nah fam, no way you get that many women to lie. Where there's smoke, there's fire and that's a helluva lot of smoke
