I am reliably told that NBC and Matt Lauer are closing in on a deal that will pay him an estimated $25 million per year over the course of a multiyear deal, possibly as many as three, but more likely two.
NBC declined to comment.

Hmmm. Wonder if he'll be paying his "fair share"?

I DO NOT watch the Today Show. Mostly Liberal LYING and poff pieces. I hope they go Bankrupt, the lying POS.
F Matt Lauer , Katie, and of course BHO.

Is this, “reliable source”, the National Enquirer?
I read that as well.
I don’t have a clue as to why he gets that kind of cash, he’s never held my attention.

What about the emotional and teleprompter reading ding bat that sits next to ole matty poo? Did they move her up to show equality of women, equality of minority women, or just stupid people who can't upstage the mighty honkey.

I don’t know that I’d pay Lauer 25K a year, much less 25 mil. I’m not his boss, though. If the network thinks he’s worth that much (even if he isn’t, LOL), then that’s their dime to spend.
I pretty much hate all those morning network news shows anyway. Even Fox and Friends (except when Alysin Camerota is hosting....rrrrrrowl!)

On the very rare occasions (every couple of years?) that his name comes up in our house, he is referred to as Matt Liar.

I can’t remember the last time I watched that show. Usually wake up to Fox & Friends or talk radio before work.

Same here. And one would think that, with all of that money, his employees would hire a speech therapist to teach him how to pronounce words that contain “L”.

Well, it costs a lot to retain an employee who can handle the hard hitting important stuff .... like the daily update on the adventures of Lindsey Lohan and health related information like eating a Big Mack is equivalent to eating twenty donuts.
