NBC execs are claiming that they had no idea of this, and it’s the first charges against Lauer in 20 years. I think that story is going to change, and the ones that covered for Lauer are also going to be in a bit of hot water.

I predict Andy Lack is gone within 48 hours.

NBC Receives at Least 2 New Complaints About Matt Lauer

By JIM RUTENBERG, ELLEN GABLER and RACHEL ABRAMSNOV. 29, 2017

On Wednesday, NBC received at least two more complaints related to Mr. Lauer, according to a person briefed on the network’s handling of the matter. One complaint came from a former employee who said Mr. Lauer had summoned her to his office in 2001 and then had sex with her. She provided her account to The New York Times but declined to let her name be used. She told the Times that she felt helpless because she didn’t wanted to lose her job, and that she didn’t report the encounter at the time because she felt ashamed.

She said NBC’s human resources department had contacted her Wednesday to ask her about her allegations.
