  • NBC Fires Matt Lauer

    Another icon falls...What is it with all these liberal defenders of women!

    NBC fires Matt Lauer after complaint about 'inappropriate sexual behavior'

    Savannah Guthrie made the announcement at the top of the "Today" show, where Lauer has been an anchor for two decades.

    NBC News chairman Andrew Lack said in a memo to staff that it was the first complaint lodged against Lauer in his career at the network. But he said "we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident."

    Fired over allegations? I assume they have enough proof to avoid a wrongful firing suit.
    Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
    But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
    Than a fool in the eyes of God

      If NBC fired him, they must have had a boatload of proof. I wonder if his leg is tingling now.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Dang it. That was not who I picked in the sexual harassment pool.

          I agree, he always seemed so white bread...

            I tell ya, Pence is starting to look pretty smart with his rule of not being alone with a woman who is not his wife.

              That's been my policy for over 40 years - only got accused of sexual misconduct one time, and it was so obviously phony that it didn't even go anywhere.

                That was my old Pastor's policy.

                    Man I so wish Pence had been elected president. Maybe he will run next time.

                      He'll get his chance in 7-years.

                          I can't tell if that article is serious or not.

                              If anyone put down Garrison Keillor in the pool, they're going to make like a bazillion dollars. I've never been so disappointed in Bobby Flay. It's just not panning out.
