Five years before NBC axed Matt Lauer amid allegations of sexual misconduct, former "Today" show anchor Katie Couric addressed her longtime co-host's most "annoying" habit.

During a June 2012 appearance on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen," Couric, 60, revealed Lauer, 59, got touchy with her behind during the show's "Plead the Fifth" segment.

"He pinches me on the ass a lot," Couric said.

She used to look cute. Now she just looks old.

[I want the USA back]

So pretty face done pinched “America’s Sweetheart” on the a$$. Well, she was cute. Was.

Comcast might also simply wanted out of his obsence $25 million/year salary.

You got it....... Mat in essence killed the golden egg laying goose.

That would be anywhere on her body.

I thought this type of behavior was shed sometime during high school (if not sooner). What kind of psychological quirk allows this to continue in adult men? (It’s men only, right?)

[Charles Martel]

And I bet she liked it because it meant, at her age, SHE could still attract a man.

Of course. Plus, she was a young woman back before the suffocating blanket of political correctness descended upon us. Secretly, she probably misses those days before the "social engineering" got rolling.

I bet the pervert, woman-abusing lauer was inspired to do so by katie’s video of her intestine that she showed.

[jospehm20]

Me too.

BFD. Who do these ultra self-important prima donna queens think they are? On any given night in the bars across the fruited plain
tens of thousands of women get their asses..and more..pinched and grabbed. But they don’t make a bogus pity party and federal case out of it. They handle it their own way ...the right way.,,via “street adjustment”.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

There was a time when Couric was making eight figures a year and was the most powerful woman in network news. Yet even in that position,this brave feminist kept her trap shut about Lauer and let him harass her and other much less powerful women. Couric should get the Hypocrite of the Year award.

That was quite a bit more intimate with Katie than I even needed to be.

[Terry Mross]

Why would a man think pinching a woman’s butt or boobs would turn her on?

I guess it would have been better to just give the link

“I bet the pervert, woman-abusing lauer was inspired to do so by katie’s video of her intestine that she showed.”

Lauer likes the road less traveled?

[Bonemaker]

“She used to look cute. Now she just looks old.”

What does she look like before she goes to makeup?

[Bonemaker]

“Why would a man think pinching a woman’s butt or boobs would turn her on?”

Or anything else for that matter.

[hal ogen]

I would question if HER road there is “less traveled”.

Couric should get the Hypocrite of the Year award.

She'll have strong competition from Reese Witherspoon, who says she was sexually harassed on a casting couch at age 15. She spoke up at 41. In the interim she kept her mouth shut, took the gig, cashed her checks, and let all the 15-year old girls who came after her figure it out for themselves.
