But Scarborough tweeted: “Looks like I picked a good day to stop responding to Trump’s bizarre tweets. He is not well.”

The man doesn't know what not responding means.

The other thing is that a lot of this is decades old. The Lauer accusations aren’t. But the NPR stuff happened two decades ago. There is a statute of limitations in place for a reason.

Just wait until the men begin airing their grievances about being assaulted daily by visible cleavage, short skirts, etc. Because men are turned on by such. That is why women dress the way they do. They want men to be excited by them. Media executives encourage certain looks and fashions in order to attract viewers. Blah. Blah blah. Blah.

The clear solution is that the women must be covered from head to toe with only eyes visible. And the men must wear full robes and towels over their heads in order for no one to be turned on or turned off by their appearances. Hahaha. Sounds like a plan.

Whatever Matt Lauer did must be very egregious.

I hope Trump never goes into Scarborough's office, healthy people walk in there and suddenly drop dead of a bump on the head.

Also, when a major company tells the press they have just received the “first” complaint about someone, that can involve some careful (Clintonesque) parsing of the term “complaint.” Even if they are not blatantly lying (big “IF”), it can mean that no one has been willing to go through some specific institutional grievance process.... doesn’t mean that higher-ups were unaware of the problem(s). It need not even mean that the person(s) had not told anyone in official HR or management positions. It might only mean that the victim(s) had not chosen to engage in a specific company grievance procedure to demand an investigation.

The empathy the women talking heads are dislaying for Lauer is stunning!

They feel so bad— for HIM!!

They are so sad that he got caught! Unbelievable!!

Savannah Guthrie: “As I’m sure you can understand, we are devastated. I’m heartbroken for Matt. He is my dear, dear friend and my partner, and he is beloved by many, many people here.” She also referred to his conduct saying Lauer “...behaved badly.”

Really? You’re heartbroken for a guy who committed sexual assault on one of your colleagues and you refer to it as behaving “badly”?

As for Megyn Kelly, this statement is a real classic: “We don’t see the career opportunities women lose because of sexual harassment, or the intense stress it causes a woman dealing with it when she comes to work each day.” No, we don’t, but we do see dozens of examples of painfully stupid women who’ve clearly taken advantage of it to advance their careers.

And, as I’ve said before, it’s only a matter of time before information starts to come out about powerful and influential women who’ve abused their positions to gain sexual favors from young male interns and subordinates. Like the abuse of women by powerful men, once the truth comes out in one case, there’ll be a cascade of accusations against women as well.

Break out the popcorn...

A friend of mine has an interesting theory that NBC’s management was working behind the scenes to make the allegation against Lauer public so they could terminate his $25M/year contract.
