(NBC News did not comment on Variety‘s story, and the site reports that Lauer could not be reached for comment.)
In the wake of Matt Lauer’s surprising firing Wednesday, several NBC employees who worked with the Today host have come forward to offer our sister site Variety details on his sexually charged workplace behavior.
In a memo released by NBC News Wednesday, chairman Andrew Lack noted that the network had “received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace by Matt Lauer” and that “while it is the first complaint about his behavior in the over 20 years he’s been at NBC News, we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident.”
