He made Britney and Ann Curry cry and Madonna pissed off. Now he and Les Moonves are both paying the price. For those wondering, Les Moonves humiliated Janet Jackson when he was at CBS.
It's well known the more sociopathic you are, the higher you climb in corporate America. We literally reward bad behavior in many ways. And people still wonder why OJ got off.
For narcissists like him, it's the realization that no one misses you, and that the world easily goes on without you, and that people happily continue on with their lives not even thinking about you that hurts the most. He saw himself as God's gift to the news world or something. As an average citizen, I honestly could care less if he's on the news or not. Didn't pay much attention to him when he was on the news. Don't miss him at all now that he's no longer doing the news.
I NEVER understood his popularity I always thought he was way overrated and WAY overpaid I was and still am confused at what exactly his competency is Lastly, I'm sure many, like me, really could care less or yet empathize with what a rich entitled sexual abuser is doing these days
That’s only part of it. Lauer was not exactly the greatest television journalist in history, and his line of questioning was creepy at worst, lightweight at least. How he lasted for as long as he did, earning as much as he did, is beyond me.
In January 2018, Curry returned to television with her PBS series, _We'll Meet Again_ . Developed by her own production company, the series focused on 12 stories of people searching for individuals who changed their lives. She then appeared on _The View_ as guest co-host on January 23, 2018, where she addressed the controversies surrounding her departure from _Today_ . In 2019, Curry hosted TNT/TBS’s _Chasing the Cure_ .
I am no Matt Laure fan, never was impressed with his reporting. I see many comments bashing him and wonder why other men are not held to the same standard, such as cheating and lying husbands. In my view that too should not be tolerated, yet we elected a lying cheater to the highest office in America. Women too should be held to the same standard.
What woman’s career has ended because she was going around paying hush money to ex flings and cheating in her husband? The only women that lose anything are those that get involved with minors while being teachers or a person of trust.
Tough to feel sorry for him...he became drunk with power, and he hurt a lot of people. His arrogance and his very public disrespect of Ann Curry turned me off years ago. His Karma hit hard.
Colleagues were too scared to speak up. Look at what happened to Ann Curry she lost her job for speaking up. NBC is to blame as well for covering up his abusive ways for fear of losing money and ratings and etc.
@@GreatValueBleach 🤣🤣What makes you so certain? It would be good. Man, I hate people who go around destroying other people's careers, blessings, taking their lives, because they're so envious.
He had a door to his office that he could remotely lock from his desk, thereby trapping young women. Then he would assault him. He really deserves to be in prison - where he can experience what his victims felt.
Why wasn’t he brought up on charges then? Why was none of this brought up? How long did you work at the studio? You only believe BS stories randomly slammed on people nowadays because it’s trendy. Where is my sandwich?
I'm in no position to judge Lauer. That said, regarding there person who wrote the narrative - - It stymies me when/if somebody says another person's hurting for money (more or less) and then immediately says they have a lot of money 'tied up' in real estate. Are you KIDDIN me here!
Shocking, act like an a$$, & people treat you like one, or at least decide a$$ery in either personal or working relations with you are risky! Sorry to hear his trust is impacted, how about the rest of us with his phony game of decades!
I think the main reason Matt Lauer hasn't tried a comeback by now is because there is plenty more dirt about him that would come out if he got back into the public eye.
Child please, he's still got his money - but I do understand that people like him may be depressed without being in the limelight, he'll be alright though...
Just wondering how many people, who comment on Lauer, are or were really into morning shows, at any stage in their lives. For some, it's how they start the day. And. When you're into morning shows, the anchors/hosts all have a certain 'look/appeal.' You couldn't have Laura Ingraham as a morning host. And yet. Not sure Diane Sawyer works well, either at 6AM. Michael Strahan is REALLY good. So. Unless you know that you can do 'this' kind of journalism, who's gonna actually tell you the truth about yourself? As for Lauer, I mighta caught the first few years of his stint, before I stopped watching morning shows. I didn't think he was anything like David Hartman, BUT he was good at the morning show thing. I would think that morning show hosts are very skilled at sizing people up by appearance. So. Why would a professional like Lauer wonder why a chick like Couric 'wouldn't' toss him out with the trash after hearing what he was up to. You know? A lock 'that activates from the desk.' It's gonna give her nightmares. So. These people have a LOT of power and Lauer let it get to his head, so he was never truly a morning host. Anyway. Right now. I like seeing Stephanopolous and Spenser. They're easy to watch.
I have never ever have indulged in morning shows but I have watched every second of Matt Lauer’s great in depth special interviews. He was and still is the best journalist.
I used to like Matt lauer growing up ,and now I've lost total respect for him 😢😔😪 for what he did for these women and now he has to lived with it for the rest of his life.
What ever happened to juris prudence? I have no idea what Matt did or didn't do. I find it far worse, and far more dangerous, to convict someone in the court of public opinion. But as reported elsewhere, Matt told Curic (by her account) that he couldn't even give a woman in distress a hug. That doesn't sound like a bad person. From my personal experience, the real sexual harassment that I have witnessed has always been perpetrated by women. Every single time. Simple banter is not harassment. Far more common is nonsexual harassment perpetrated by management on workers.
Absolutely. People are so quick to judge with little evidence and so many are being destroyed without the opportunity for natural justice. The citizens of the world seem to have become so judgmental and damning in the past decade or so. It does no one any good to be so mean all the time. Some of the self righteous views people hold en masse these days border on hysteria and are as disturbing as the alleged behaviour they criticize.
@@queenprincess4life There's nothing willing about coerced sex or sexual harassment. Invoking the image of a "married man" doesn't work, when it's the married man who's the predator.
Matt and Al friends? Are you kidding? Laur referred to Al as a big, fat joke and he needed to leave the show. He tried to get him fired for over a decade.
Without any adjudication, these are nothing but allegations. During what is now the failed me too movement, all a personally or professionally jilted woman had to do was raise false claims in order to get satisfaction.
And also what he did to Anne curry as well while making her cry 😢😭😪 for departure and now is losing her job as well I feel sorry for her and not matt .
Bootie Bandito. Maybe the woman dating him secretly has vision's of dollars racing thru her head. She may date him 2-3 year's, and then write a tell all book.
Hey Matt, it's time that you apologized to the people you have humiliated, like Ann Curry, Tom Cruise, Anne Hathaway, Sandra Bullock, Madonna and of course, Britney.
OK, the media and his opps got what you wanted. He was let go/ fired, so what is the issue now? Why are you still concerned about him? He was supposed to be so horrible/ yada yada. Let it go and move on. He's minding his business.
@ lisa reynolds yes but i saw in ebony magazine that several African American hollywood celebrities bleach their skin lighter apparently they use the orange peeling lotion from some japanese website called matsuis skin lightening online which makes them look far more light skin and mixed race in appearance and not look black.I guess they get more roles if they light skin ,but its their body.
What do you think of Matt Lauer?
He looked better with hair.
He brought this on himself.
One of the best all time journalists.
getting what he deserves and then some. With the things he did to those women was deplorable ,
These women WERE NOT FORCED INTO DOING ANYTHING. This Me Too movement has gotten out of hand.
Being held accountable must really suck when you aren't used to it, huh?

@@SCOHEN250K found the narcissist
I don't feel sorry for matt he only has himself to blame for the way his life is today after what he has done
Very well said.
My sentiments exactly
He made Britney and Ann Curry cry and Madonna pissed off. Now he and Les Moonves are both paying the price. For those wondering, Les Moonves humiliated Janet Jackson when he was at CBS.
@@karlc2869 because of Matt Ann Curry had to leave her job for speaking out.
Yep.
Katie had to have known what he was doing for years at work. People talk.
Katie says there was nothing. But she left around 2005 and Matts worst actions happened after 2010

Obscurity is what Lauer deserves -
Keep intruding on him-don’t let him have a comfy retirement after rape-he should be in jail
Humiliation could cause someone with Lauer's arrogance to withdraw into isolation.
Exactly 💯💯

Matt Lauer thought he was captain of the Today Show, only Al Roker remains of the cast from at least twenty years ago.
The poor dear. He feels he’s lost trust because someone quoted his text messages. I wonder how his rape victims feel about trusting people.
I NEVER understood his popularity
I always thought he was way overrated and WAY overpaid
I was and still am confused at what exactly his competency is
Lastly, I'm sure many, like me, really could care less or yet empathize with what a rich entitled sexual abuser is doing these days
shouldn't he be in jail instead of vacationing in the Hamptons? WTF
@@PERUANO31 What was he convicted of?
it's now been six years since the scandal, life sure has changed dramatically for him.
Matt Lauer was the host of daytime’s Number 1 most watched show & he held that job for ~25 years. Basically he was a famous reporter & interviewer
.
So Matt has lost trust for people over something he did?
Classic narcissism.

Who cares i never watched him especially after what he did to ann
Lauer thought he was untouchable!
In other words he’s financially sitting good and enjoying life without all the work shit!
A house in the Hamptons and plenty of money? Boo hoo poor Matt Lauer.
He was accused of despicable things. Who wants to be friends with that?
I hate the liberal POS, BUT, like you said……. He’s accused. It’s very dangerous to assume guilt with no real evidence. It’s also very stupid.
Exactly 💯💯
Accused. ... You said it. ANYONE can be accused.. Be careful when judging someone over accusations & Not proof.
Agreed
You are an as* (I just accused you of despicable things).

I guess an idiot with a fearful perception of the world would date him and risk letting her reality match his bad behavior
MONEY what else. Why would anyone date an abuser bastard.
