    Good thing that NBC has the highly talented and much beloved Megyn Kelly waiting in the wings.

    Maybe it was Kelly that made the allegation. They said only one allegation was made. So I have to wonder if it will come out that the allegation was false, forcing the pendulum of public opinion to swing the other way.

    NBC is operating almost in the black now they that they don't have to pay Matt $25 million.

    Do they pay the bills at MSNBC? I happened to watch MSNBC for over 40 minutes yesterday, and there wasn't a single commercial break. Very effective propaganda that never gives viewers a reason to switch channels.

    They still want to effect the Roy Moore vote. Trying to prove that mere accusations are grounds for firing.

    We'll see if any of these people come back.

    We could speculate on the fact that these are older white guys. Age (and payroll) discrimination?

    I don't think he did anything wrong. I blame overly sensitive hysterical thottery here.

    The statement said Lauer's actions clearly violated company policy.

    Unless he was stupid enough to give them some undisputable proof or admitted his bad behavior, I'm pretty sure they will be paying him for his full contract.

    I do not know but one thing I do know they outright fired him rather than suspending him for the allegations. Probably a loop-hole that allows them to terminate contracts.

    Another case just last year:

    Maybe we can get mods to put up a ticker instead of us starting a new thread every time a fresh kill happens.

    This leaves an interesting question of who will step into Lauer's seat. The make pool at NBC is rather shallow owing to Lauer's massive ego. Some are suggesting Megyn Kelly will move to 7:00. She, however, has proven weak in her current time slot. Ratings at Today are in freefall and have been for some time. CBS is tainted as well. They have no heir-apparent.

    George Stephanopolis over at ABC would likely not take the job, even though he is the weakest personality on their team. Sitting next to amazon Robin Roberts, the very tall Lara Spencer, and Michael Strahan, he is a puny, admittedly corrupt presence there. Strahan's contract is fairly new, and I think he likes his job.

    It will be interesting to see what NBC does next.

    Where we learn more than we really wanted to know about Matt Lauer, summarized as:

    • gave a female employee a dildo in a box as well as note about how he wanted to use it on her
    • summoned a different female employee to his office, dropped his pants and whipped out his cock and told her to blow him
    • quizzed female hosts about who they've $#@!ed
    • played marry $#@! kill in the office naming female co-hosts
    • told a female employee her job rating would be based on performance in bed
    • installed a button in his desk to lock his office door remotely so nobody could walk in on them

    Projection.

    The same reason leftists want guns banned.

    They think everyone are murderous, maladjusted, psychotics, just like them.

    Honestly I've had guys joke with me saying similar things but it didn't send off the creeper vibe. I just sass back with something alleging they have a small penis. "Is that half a roll of Certs in your pocket, or....."

    I watched this about 10 times trying to determine if and why this is different, and I think it's because there's no smile at the end. It's weird.

    I have actually been accused of that in an attempt to deny my unemployment... from 40' away and on the other side of a noisy furnace no less.
