The New York attorney general’s office late last year launched an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation and gender discrimination at NBC News, Variety has learned. NBC News chief Andrew Lack and former “Hardball” host Chris Matthews were among multiple high-ranking executives and newsroom talents whose behavior was the subject of questioning, according to multiple sources.
Among those who cooperated with the investigation by providing testimony was Megyn Kelly, an individual close to the former “Today” host told Variety. Kelly declined to comment.
News of the investigation followed the surprise announcement Monday that Lack would depart the company months ahead of a planned retirement.
Variety has spoken directly to three women who were interviewed by the New York attorney general’s office, and has knowledge of three additional people who were brought in for questioning. Well-placed sources who were present for questioning at the attorney general’s office said the probe was a broad-scoped investigation and at least a dozen men and women were questioned. A source said attorney Douglas Wigdor represented several women in connection with their testimony at the attorney general’s office.

Who would be stupid enough to harass Megyn Kelly after her sh!tshow? I’m guessing she would be the harasser.
“Among those who cooperated with the investigation by providing testimony was Megyn Kelly...”
Of course she did. She needed to stir the name-recognition waters.
The AG’so office is doing something.
I’d argue that the jury is still out on whether it’s an investigation, or to aid in a coverup.
MK must be irresistible. She keeps finding herself in these situations.
A guest on Tucker used to work for them and confirmed it last night. The Matt Lauer shit at NBC was the tip of the iceberg, but it didn’t stop them from giving that Trump video to the Washington Post as an October surprise in 2016.
I seriously doubt it is an Investigation, it is more than likely it is an evidence collection and destruction mission to protect their buddies, you know the Sexual Predators.
It will be like when the FBI took over the Weiner laptop investigation from the NYPD. It was for the purpose of covering it up. Just watch.
I feel bad for women who go through this but the fake hashtag movement is dead.
Rush Limbaugh mentioned it, postulating that the scandal is too big to cover up.
I’m assuming NBC/LSM in general are those that would have tried to avoid any hint of mentioning the NBC News problems.
Limbaugh also mentioned 20% pay cuts for the $100K+ club, as well as replacements being brought over from NBC’s Telemundo (?).
Was Kelly sexually assaulting her co-workers?
Ah, but a directed investigation into just people they now want to fire, have already fired, or want to plan on firing is very convenient for those left in place. On camera.
Yeah, this will accomplish some agenda item, count on that.
No, no. She simply found a second one.
Megan is 49. It is pretty rare for a woman her age, no matter how hot she was in her 20’s, to be able to compete with the younger generation in the hotness competition.
