Apologies, But Vanity Fair Just Published Its Hit on Matt Lauer, and Whoo Doggy, I Gotta Post It

What a lovely day that greets me after the site got taken down yesterday.

I know you may be sick of derogatory stories about Matt Lauer, if you're a Communist who hates joy, but I'm not.

I hate this guy.

As the co-host of NBC's "Today," Matt Lauer once gave a colleague a sex toy as a present. It included an explicit note about how he wanted to use it on her, which left her mortified.

On another day, he summoned a different female employee to his office, and then dropped his pants, showing her his penis. After the employee declined to do anything, visibly shaken, he reprimanded her for not engaging in a sexual act.

He would sometimes quiz female producers about who they'd slept with, offering to trade names...

Despite being married, Lauer was fixated on women, especially their bodies and looks, according to more than 10 accounts from current and former employees. He was known for making lewd comments verbally or over text messages. He once said made a suggestive reference to a colleague's performance in bed and compared it to how she was able to complete her job, according to witnesses to the exchange. For Lauer, work and sex were intertwined.

"There were a lot of consensual relationships, but that’s still a problem because of the power he held," says a former producer who knew first-hand of these encounters. "He couldn't sleep around town with celebrities or on the road with random people, because he's Matt Lauer and he's married. So he'd have to do it within his stable, where he exerted power, and he knew people wouldn’t ever complain."

Lauer had a "secluded" office permitting him trysts at work, and if the seclusion wasn't enough, he installed a special feature: He could lock the door by remote control with a button on his desk, making sure no one could just walk on in while he was doing... whatever. I guess getting up and just locking the door might have given his lovers/victims a chance to reconsider or object, so he'd just hit the button and the door would lock itself.

He's the Ernst Stavro Blofeld of sexual harassment.

By the way, Matt Lauer seems to have come down with a case of Stage 3 Mummyface:



Update: Linking a tweet is not an endorsement. But this is a funny way to put it.

13 What's special about Weinstein, Spacey and now Lauer is that there are many, many incidents over many years -- some outrageously criminal -- but with a systematic method of shutting up the victim. With a corporation, or a corporate culture, and women involved as enablers.

28 Well, c'mon, it's Matt Lauer. Even women who didn't know they wanted to have sex with him actually wanted to have sex with him. Maybe they convinced themselves he was out of their reach so they conditioned themselves, like sour grapes.

When it turns out they actually can have sex with him, right there on the rug, they need a little persuasion, a threat or two, to get back in the swing of getting to do Matt Lauer.

Posted by: spongeworthy at November 29, 2017 04:08 PM (K/9da)

29 So I'm not sure I'm reading this right ... this was NOT a ONE TIME event? Everyone at NBC knew what an aggressive perv he was and did nothing? Say it ain't so!

Should NBC itself just resign its right to the airwaves, having been fully revealed as incapable of being trusted by the public?

YES -- yes they should.

37 We thought it was weird that Matt Lauer first asked us to put in that "special button" that locks ppl in his office from the inside.

Even worse is that every 6 weeks, the button would get jammed up with some white goo and we'd have to replace it.

*btw - how did he word that request, or did he install that button himself?*

41 Funny, isn't it, that Lauer and his ilk like to pontificate and allege that this sort of really, really creepy behavior goes-on in C-level exec offices in every private company in the USA. And honestly, this sort of stuff did pn on in the era of Mad Men and may still go on at beta-male led pseudo-companies like, oh say ZuckerBook.

Seems however that actual alpha-male C-level types have long-ago figured-out it's a whole lot easier, and safer, to have a piece on the side and/or a sugar-daddy/sugar-baby relationship than to pull this sort of crap in the office.

Or so I've been told.

I also had a retractable disco ball and a revolving desk put in. It was hot.

Posted by: Matt Lauer, Sensitive Pony Tail Guy at November 29, 2017 04:10 PM (8gDQu)

45 The problem Lauer has here is that he was incredibly unliked by his coworkers and guests. So basically, nobody is willing to cover for him like Franken or some other people. If you're an unrelenting jerk to everyone around you, eventually its going to come calling. If you combine that with awful and illegal behavior, you will pay.

A woman accuses a guy? We'll see the evidence or its just your word.

A woman accuses a guy and all the coworkers back her up? OK now you got a problem.

A woman accuses a guy and all the coworkers back her up and its an open secret to your colleagues in the industry?

49 Key question:

Did the door locking mechanism lock the door from both sides so a person couldn't leave unless he pressed the button again?

If so, he is probably a kidnapper in addition to being a rapist.

60 I am amazed at how passive these women are. You would think someone, at some point in time would slap him and blow the whistle.

And in the social media age how could he ever be sure someone wouldn't whip out a smart phone and take a picture of him whipping out his dingus? Anyone who did that would own him. I know journalists as a caste are not very bright, but I would have thought they were more aggressive than this.

Posted by: Skandia Recluse, Real Lee at November 29, 2017 04:11 PM (KdDCu)

62 Some of this stuff is over the top, and while Lauer was a liberal asshole who deserves contempt I really fear we're headed for a sexless end where the whole goddamned human race dies out from willing lack of child birth.

Lots of people are stuck at work for ungodly amounts of their waking lives - of course they're going to hookup with (or try to hookup with and fail charmlessly) co-workers.

And at the risk of getting burned at the stake, I'll state as a matter of plain fact that women pretty themselves up at work and use their feminine wiles at work to get favorable treatment from older men that they might not really want to bed them. Of course this is going to lead to conflict when the men test whether they've still "got it" with the pretty young bird in accounting.

There really is no solution to many of these conflicts, so we'll just be 80 hour wage slaves living a gray existence where sex isn't officially outlawed but put beyond the scope of practical experience.

Spends the last minute or two congratulating Matt on his success. Goes on and on about how his success is just so amazing, improbable, unexplainable, unimaginable . . .
as the adjectives progress Lauer slowly realizes he is being insulted on live TV and can do nothing about it. The look on his face as it changes from smug self satisfaction, to shock, to anger and impotence is priceless.

130 And at the risk of getting burned at the stake, I'll state as a matter of plain fact that women pretty themselves up at work and use their feminine wiles at work to get favorable treatment from older men that they might not really want to bed them.

Sure, the behavior of some women in a place like that is going to make the men a bit unclear about the limits of behavior and their attractiveness. Its still the man's fault for what he does, but the gold diggin' whores have to take some responsibility for misleading guys too.

She's good looking, but I know for a fact that she worked her way up because she worked her ass off. Spent time on the road away from the family. Appeared on the late night shows and then the morning shows.

RE: LOCKING DOOR HARDWARE

Occasionally I will require the capability to secure the door to my office so that I may do important company work without being disturbed.

180 Sure, the behavior of some women in a place like that is going to make the men a bit unclear about the limits of behavior and their attractiveness. Its still the man's fault for what he does, but the gold diggin' whores have to take some responsibility for misleading guys too.

Yeah its a good general rule. I have seen it work out but its the exception. Usually it ends up being pretty miserable for all involved.

Still, I remember the intern at an office I worked at, who wore a "dress" that was basically a long tee shirt with a belt. It was just long enough to cover her underwear. And she was a stunner, absolutely beautiful girl. She caught her high end exec guy and started dressing more modestly. No idea how that worked out in the end but it was obvious what she had in mind and it wasn't the mail room clerk.

C'mon, Katy Tur is dumb as a post. There has to have been at least 20 capable women journalists in the pool, but she got picked to move up.

Because if Lauer used his power to veto advancement unless a woman played ball, you can bet there were other guys at NBC/MSNBC who did too.

in my old firm one of the partners had an automatic door closer. It didn't lock, but it was hard to open again unless he pushed to open button due to the hydraulics.

btw - that guy was a total a'hole also.

Yeah women don't stop being attractive just because you dedicated your life to one. But fixation is another issue entirely. Anything you give to another woman (attention, support, etc) that you owe only to your wife... is adultery.

I always disliked Garrison Keillor and his schtick and had a very arrogant liberal ex-BIL that loved him to the point of weirdness. I would like to ask him about what he thinks about the guy now.

Lauer is a true giant to fall. Wow. What an arrogant perv. The idea that you could have someone in your office, whip it out and ask for head is really beyond the pale. At least he didn't Weinstein it into a potted plant when rejected.

293 What most people don't understand about Lauer, Charlie Rose and others that they're not just looking for love in all the wrong places.

These are Power Fucks.

These are fucks because they're large and in charge. They can make someone go stand out in the rain waiting for story, run and get coffee, pick up the dry cleaning or get down on their knees and start sucking.

And one common thing about power fucks is that it's not love making.

Pussy? Go home and give that to your boyfriend. Bend over bitch.

Power doesn't want what is given away to everyone. Power wants what isn't on the menu.

And the other dirty secret out there is that there are a large number of women who like power.

353 one of the funniest things I ever saw on the Today show was some guy - I have no idea who he was now this was years ago. Guy comes on for some reason and is interviewed by Matt Lauer. Spends the last minute or two congratulating Matt on his success. Goes on and on about how his
success is just so amazing, improbable, unexplainable, unimaginable . . .
as the adjectives progress Lauer slowly realizes he is being
insulted on live TV and can do nothing about it. The look on his face as it changes from smug self satisfaction, to shock, to anger and impotence is priceless."
____________________

I read an article on Lauer years ago, and it said that after he had been fired from some t.v. anchor job, he had taken a job selling mens' suits in a store. They were the only people willing to hire him.

So if this guy hadn't been getting $25 million from NBC for reading crap on air (and molesting female employees off air), he would have been telling bald businessmen which ties looked good with the suits they were trying on.

His success really was inexplicable. You could tell he was a creep. His arrogance and smugness oozed through the tube.

Don't feel bad. I dated my accounting major Baylor co-ed for four years,
was only allowed to see her on Saturdays, and couldn't enter her dorm
beyond about a five foot mark inside the front door. And I worked 100
miles away and was age 23 to 26. But you do what you have to do if
honorable in intentions. I married her a month after she graduated.

Blofeld was played by a number of different actors. I don't think any of them reprised the role. Except perhaps the one that supplied voice only in one and an obscured appearence in another.

Thing is, he is almost certainly as clueless as he appears on TV. But he's the nicest, most easy-going person you could meet. Not a trace of "do you know who I am?". It's why I cringe at his cluelessness, and the abuse it rightly brings.

Uh, that makes him a member in good standing of the male side of the species. Men are, IN FACT, fixated on women's bodies and looks. True fact.

515 CRT, don't you worry, we have recipes of all sorts, from simple to more difficult, for single servings to family-reunion size, from all over the place. This is a cookbook for everyone. Because we have Morons of all sorts, so it needed to be a cookbook of all sorts. You'll like it.

And it is coming. I can say no more. Weasel will get to me if I do. Do you people realize he is a former US champion with a long-range rifle? I hope I don't have to find out how long-range he can actually shoot with it, or I might have to move.

554 Conspiracy Theory #1394:

Trump released some of the FBI files about the JFK assassination, and in them were reports confirming the earlier (revealed in the '90s) reports that Martin Luther King Jr. was not only a womanizer, but slept with underage groupies, forced women into orgies, make them do sex performances for him and his colleagues, etc. -- some of this witnesses by other black preachers whom he invited to his sex-soirees, and whom were horrified.

Almost immediately after these revelations, the whole "sexual harassment" nationwide scandal broke, and it wiped the MLK revelations of the news cycle.

Could it be that ll of this is simply a way to make the nation forget that the Left's #1 Untouchable Hero was exposed as being just as corrupt as the worst of them?

When the South Park kids were doing the whole boy band episode with the song "Fingerbang" they were doing a music video and wanted the girls to all scream like crazy for them. They suggested someone for the girls to think about to freak out about and they didn't like it and so when they asked who they would lose it over the girls all dreamily replied "Matt Lauer."
