Katie Couric has finally broken her silence over Matt Lauers sexual assault accusations and his firing from the Today show.
The whole thing has been very painful for me, Couric told People Magazine. The accounts Ive read and heard have been disturbing, distressing and disorienting and its completely unacceptable that any women at the Today show experienced this kind of treatment.
Couric co-hosted NBCs Today show with Lauer for 15 years, but left in May 2006 to anchor CBS Evening News.
I had no idea this was going on during my tenure or after I left, she continued. I think I speak for many of my former colleagues when I say this was not the Matt we knew. Matt was a kind and generous colleague who treated me with respect. In fact, a joke I once made on late-night television was just that, because it was completely contrary to our brother-sister relationship. Its still very upsetting.
The joke Couric referenced was made on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in 2012 where Couric said that Lauer pinches me on the a a lot. The recording was heavily circulated after Lauer was fired.

She said that the pervert was always slapping her on the ass. She knew all about everything. Offices are a sh*thole of gossip, no way she did not know.
Yeah, why is he not being prosecuted for false imprisonment and rape/assault? He’s above the law like all the rest of them. Hell is awaiting them, all those who think they are never going to pay.
