Ronan Farrow book claims Matt Lauer raped ex-NBC staffer in Sochi hotel room: report
NY Post ^ | October 9, 2019 | Ben Feuerherd

Former NBC News employee Brooke Nevils claims in a new book that Matt Lauer raped her in a hotel room in 2014, a report said Wednesday.

The journalist discloses the sexual assault allegation in Ronan Farrow’s “Catch and Kill,” which describes how the former “Today” show host allegedly anally raped her in the hotel room during the network’s coverage of the Sochi Olympics, according to Variety.

Nevils said she was in Sochi to work with “Today” co-anchor Meredith Vieira when the attack occurred, according to Variety, who obtained a copy of the book.

She allegedly ran into Lauer during a boozy night at their hotel bar and went back to his hotel room after he invited her.

Despite the alleged rape, Nevils said she had more sexual encounters with Lauer when they returned to New York.

“It was completely transactional. It was not a relationship,” she told Farrow, according to the report.

Nevils reported her ordeal to NBC executives and Lauer was eventually fired over the alleged sex assault. She was put on medical leave in 2018 and eventually paid more than $1 million by the network.

“The network proposed a script she would have to read, suggesting that she had left to pursue other endeavors, that she was treated well, and that NBC News was a positive example of sexual harassment,” Farrow wrote in the book, according to Variety.

She had an ongoing sexual relationship with Lauer before and after. Lots of alcohol involved.

After the rape she went back to Lauer a few times, saying it was “transactional.”

The rape allegation may come from Lauer “playing the back nine” without consent. Seems strange she would ever want to be with him again after that.

You have to give her credit for a rare bit of honesty from a woman in this type of “relationship.”

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that if you keep going back for more (as the female) , it’s not rape rape. It’s an arrangement.

The left is rendering the word rape as diluted and meaningless as the word racist.

What happens in Sochi doesn’t stay in Sochi.

Lauer should have went to Vegas.

Just sayin’

You give me something, I give you something.

By most legal definitions it's call prostitution.

I see FReepers are throwing their enemies a lifeline. A woman trashes NBC News and Matt Lauer and you idiots trash the woman. Happens over and over.

Sad.

Not if she liked it. Should of alerted authorities right after the incident, including the US Embassy.
That fact she still had a sexual relationship with a married whoremonger only confirms a high slut level/will use body for career advancement.
Now she is weaponizing poundmetoo and trying to angle for a cash grab.
