It’s been more than 14 months since Ann Curry’s unceremonious exit from NBC’s Today, and now Matt Lauer is lashing out at the way the situation was handled in the media.~snip~

“The way the media treated what happened with Ann Curry was a disappointing learning experience,” he told Esquire. “I was disappointed by the laziness of the media, the willingness to read a rumor, repeat that rumor, and treat it as a fact.”

The GAY MAFIA at NBC News absolutely hated her, and bullied her mercilessly, since she didn’t bow down to them.

THOU SHALT NOT P**s OFF THE QUEERS in today’s gay-run Mainsteam media world.

“I was disappointed by the laziness of the media, the willingness to read a rumor, repeat that rumor, and treat it as a fact.”

Wait a minute, isn’t that exactly what he and his cohorts in the lamestream media do for a living?

Ann Curry: fiftyish newsreader who, after Katie Couric’s last day, moved to the main set dressed up like a French whore in a vain attempt to snare the cohost job. Has spent the last decade moaning about it. Apparently this is of interest to those who watch commercial-saturated morning shows and who buy People Magazine.

“I was disappointed by the laziness of the media, the willingness to read a rumor, repeat that rumor, and treat it as a fact...about someone on our side."

There, fixed it.

Ann Curry was the leftist lie spewing early morning Asian eye candy until she got a boyfriend, got knocked up and hit 40. At that point she was no use to reality media and she was placed under a bus and ground into Kim Chee paste by her "dear friends"

LOL - and she's surprised it happened to her - dingdongdingdongdingdong
