Ronan Farrow Book Alleges Matt Lauer Raped NBC News Colleague
Variety ^ | 10/8/19 | Kate Aurthur and Ramin Setoodeh

Posted on 10/09/2019 6:13:48 AM PDT by outpostinmass2

In Sochi, Nevils was tasked with working with former “Today” co-anchor Meredith Vieira, who’d been brought back to the show to do Olympics coverage. In her account, one night over drinks with Vieira at the hotel bar where the NBC News team was staying, they ran into Lauer, who joined them. At the end of the night, Nevils, who’d had six shots of vodka, ended up going to Lauer’s hotel room twice — once to retrieve her press credential, which Lauer had taken as a joke, and the second time because he invited her back. Nevils, Farrow writes, “had no reason to suspect Lauer would be anything but friendly based on prior experience.”

Once she was in his hotel room, Nevils alleges, Lauer — who was wearing a T-shirt and boxers — pushed her against the door and kissed her. He then pushed her onto the bed, “flipping her over, asking if she liked anal sex,” Farrow writes. “She said that she declined several times.”

According to Nevils, she “was in the midst of telling him she wasn’t interested again when he ‘just did it,’” Farrow writes. “Lauer, she said, didn’t use lubricant. The encounter was excruciatingly painful. ‘It hurt so bad. I remember thinking, Is this normal?’ She told me she stopped saying no, but wept silently into a pillow.” Lauer then asked her if she liked it. She tells him yes. She claims that “she bled for days,” Farrow writes.

Nevils tells Farrow: “It was nonconsensual in the sense that I was too drunk to consent,” she says. “It was nonconsensual in that I said, multiple times, that I didn’t want to have anal sex.”

>She kept going back and having sex with her rapist?

Yeah, but it was “transactional,” so it was obviously his fault.

The sheet-sniffer has a new book. What a way to support oneself.

Nevils should have immediately called the police on Lauer and raised Hell about him all over town.

They were in Russia at the time and the police were probably focused on keeping the Olympics free of terrorists so one young girl crying "rape" probably wouldn't have raised many eyebrows.

BTW, major sporting events attract the rich and famous. The rich and famous are almost always allowed to indulge in whatever hedonistic pleasures they desire, including child rape, because the host city/country wants to be sure the rich and famous are invited back to spend more money.

When Formula 1 racing came to Austin, local police and ministers started a dragnet for children flown in as sex slaves, not to arrest the international "customers" but to isolate the children from the sex traffickers. That's how bad this has gotten.

Why was her press pass in his room?

Why did she go into his room, the second time at his invitation, when she saw he was in his underwear at the door?

I’m going to catch flak, but women knowingly put themselves into some of these situations and are surprised when there’s a rape. It doesn’t excuse the rape.

A more accurate headline: “Drunken Ho that Flirted with NBC Media Star had Drunken Sex, Now Seeks Millions.”

I also don’t buy into “believe all women”. I don’t believe all men. I also don’t think her story would result in a conviction. The guy is a pig but she kept going back to the pig. What does that make her?

“Nevils, who’d had six shots of vodka

Is this how the media spends their time instead of actually doing actual journalism?”

Maybe they need six shots of vodka in order to produce a piece where Obama looks good.

Hmm, and instead of coming out with this when everyone else was making their accusations against Lauer, she waits to put it in a book where she is probably getting paid for the story?

Color me skeptical.

How many more women did the Liberal Democrat Fiend Sodomize?

Did NBC lead with this story? Did Morning BLOWs cover this story?

Shouldn’t that be ‘The victim of the alleged rape”?

I’m quite sure the identity is proven, but not the act.

Yes, the identity of the person is known, but if there was no rape, then there was no victim.

Therefore if the rape is alleged, then the status of the identified person as a victim of rape is also alleged.

Therefore she is the alleged victim.

Ask any taxpayer. When a liberal, environmental wacko is about to stick it to you, don’t expect them to use any petroleum products.

Behind the scenes they are pure dysfunctional scum and in front of the camera and in print they are actively trying to destroy the nation being the whores to the left. Why is anyone surprised by how they are in “real” life?

…she learned that Noah Oppenheim, the president of NBC News, and Andrew Lack, the chairman of NBC News and MSNBC, “were emphasizing that the incident hadn’t been ‘criminal’ or an ‘assault’”…

Fake news sourced at the very top of the food chain.

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.
