Then-married former NBC employee claims Lauer sexually assaulted her until she passed out in office
Fox News ^ | 30 Nov 17 | Edmund DeMarche

Posted on 11/30/2017 5:30:42 AM PST by SkyPilot

Matt Lauer, the disgraced former anchor of NBC's "Today" show who was fired Wednesday for “inappropriate sexual behavior,” once summoned a married female employee to his office, locked the door and sexually assaulted her until she passed out, the New York Times reported after interviewing the accuser.

The alleged incident occurred in 2001. The woman, who was not named in the report, told the Times that she was in her 40s at the time.

According to the report, Lauer was behind his desk and she took a seat in the office. She said he locked the door from a button at his desk and he asked her to unbutton her blouse. She said she complied and claims he got up from his desk, approached her from behind, bent her over his desk and had sex.

Woke up on the floor

Matt Lauer has been terminated from NBC News. On Monday night, we received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace by Matt Lauer. As a result, we’ve decided to terminate his employment. pic.twitter.com/1A3UAZpvPb — TODAY (@TODAYshow) November 29, 2017

She claims that she passed out during intercourse and woke up later on the floor in his office. She said Lauer had his assistant take her to a nurse. She told the Times that Lauer never mentioned the encounter with her again and she said she left the network about a year later.

The accuser asked the paper not to identify her in the report. The paper said it contacted her ex-husband who said he remembered the alleged encounter. The two were reportedly separated in 2001 and are now divorced.

The Times report said NBC received at least two more complaints about Lauer after the network announced he was fired prior to Wednesday’s "Today"...

And her husband did nothing, she never went home and told him? She never told her parents? Her dad ignored it?

***
And she did not leave the company until a year later. Uh-huh, I am going to stay at a place where I would have to see on a daily basis the man who raped me.

“Back in the day” of Bill Clinton assaulting women, it seemed that women were not to be believed ...

Freerepublic believed the women.

Okay, so I sell my honor and self-respect for the privilege of keeping a job? No, I don’t think so. Sounds like prostitution to me.

I never understood the part about her being an intern and being 28 years old.

Lauer is worth 60 million. No need for him to work again.

Taking off your clothes is not consenting to sex. Lots of men like to think so, however.

15 years later, Lauer dared to ask the Hildabeast an unscripted question.

Not with a woman that’s for sure.
You know about him right?

I believe she agreed to the sex. What she didn’t agree to, and is unhappy about now, is the fact that her actions went public within the company and she was embarrassed. She knew it was a story people would probably go to lunch on and it would come out. Better from her as a victim, difficult as that is to sustain as a story, than from her co-workers who heard about it.

I wish millions of Americans would be the faces of these now exposed talking heads in the context of their appearances as interviewers of political figures or as election debate moderators and say to themselves - “and I believed that guy”.

The Lib elite has hid so much about itself from the American people, and now the American people need to admit that it was not only the moral failures of that elite that was hidden, but their manipulation of “news” to fit their deep political bias as well. They have been frauds all the way.

If she so easily complied with his request to unbutton her shirt, that tells me she wasn’t surprised and must have given him the idea that this was consensual. I’m a woman and during my career a lot of guys I worked with and for came on to me, but if I let them know I wasn’t interested that was the end of it. Lots of consensual affairs go on in offices, but rarely outright assault.

Women have been the ruin of men since the beginning of time. I’m waiting for stories to come out about a woman firing a man because he wouldn’t sleep with her or not give him a promotion because he wouldn’t have anything to do with her. Most men keep their mouth shut about this but it certainly happens. Because of the way God wired us women have all the power in the world over a man. King David had a man killed so he could have his wife. The Bible is full of stories about women who used their body to get what they wanted. This is not a one way street. Any man or woman has got to have self control. I personally think the Left is attempting to paint all men as sexual predators unable to control themselves around women. I feel all this is coming out now for one reason. The democrats are bound and determined that Trump will be defeated in 2020 or before if they can get control of the House next year and impeach hm. That’s one of the primary reasons for this witch hunt on men. Trump being a sex predator is not going away if democrats gain control. With all men labeled as sex perverts both parties will run a woman for president in 2020, You’ll also see all female casts on all the network news channels, All this BS is just the latest attempt to minimize men in society because feminists hate men and thinks the would would be better with them,

Sex at work is a firing offense everywhere except porn and whorehouses.


And Congressional offices...same thing.

Some years back I was out with old friends at a late night diner.

In walked an old friend of some of the guys, I knew him slightly. They ask him over to yak with us.

...where you been? Califorina...what you doing? Prison!

Drunk at a party, car did not start, keys in the next car, drove it home.

He states”I will not J walk or anything that might send me back”.
That bad? His voice trembling” You do what they tell you, or they will kill you”.

Everyone at the table knew what he was saying and looked at their hands.
He had been hurt badly and it was obvious.

I see this as a similar situation.
