Variety: Lauer locked women in office — and management covered for him

Hot Air ^ | 11/29/17 | Ed Morrissey

It wasn’t just the executives that knew, either. Variety’s sources claim at least one of Lauer’s co-hosts knew full well what was happening, a point that might require answers from the women who claimed on air to know nothing about Lauer’s actions:

In defense of the poster, it was not a vanity post.

The source was Variety and was the lead word in the headline, hence your belief it was a vanity.

That’s more or less the way the Army worked in my day. The person in charge was ultimately responsible.

How exactly does one get a button under your desk that locks the door automatically WITHOUT management knowing about it? In my case, I’d have to go through management to get it installed by a company approved vendor, assuming I could show a legitimate business need. If my own personal vendor just showed up to do the install, management would tell me to pound sand.

You obviously aren’t one of the hip, slick, and cool elites.

[JennysCool]

Er, locks often work both ways.

At least it wasn't a remote KILL button...

They were so emotional this morning pretending to be shocked by their good friend’s behavior. Even Kelly. Now we know Kelly heard rumors.

What’s really infuriating is that all these criminals (Franken, Lauer, Conyers) and their enablers were out in front condemning our men in the military a couple of years back. The military is the one institution that DOES uphold standards and holds people accountable, but the Democrats, Obama Regime, and the media wanted a “War on Women” issue for the off year elections. And so, hundreds of thousands of men in the military were forced to undergo propaganda training that treated them all like rapists and criminals. Good men, good husbands, and good fathers were dehumanized and demonized for political points. Now we find out that these liberal hypocrites are the real monsters.

James Kirk - now there is a guy who was not PC. The 1960’s were a different time.

[Vlad The Inhaler]

NBC was paying pervert Lauer $25 million dollars a year!!!

[Brilliant]

Didn’t Lauer trash Bill O’Reilly for sexual harassment?

[x1stcav]

I’m sure he did along with all of the other leftarded dooshes that forever have been moralizing and preaching to us, their underlings, how to live our lives.

Turns out as a group, compared to the elites, we’re superior beings.

It’s a good thing schadenfreude isn’t fattening.

James Kirk - now there is a guy who was not PC. The 1960’s were a different time.

True - but then the women could fend for themselves pretty well on that show, too. That one favored a dagger, IIRC.

Yes, power corrupts. Great egos these people possess, believing that they are given the right to molest, harass and rape because they are better than us peasants. Let them eat cake!

Look at the angle of Lauer’s arm in this photo, and where his hand must be.

[plain talk]

Yeah but will Matt Lauer sue Megyn Kelly for groping HIM?

[Rembrandt]

“Felony confinement?”

I think such actions have even been charged as kidnapping!

[tumblindice]

The only female NBC employee Matt Lauer did not harass:

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Exactly.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Yes.
