NBC Fires Matt Lauer

Matt Lauer was fired from NBC News on Wednesday after an employee filed a complaint about "inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace," the network announced.
Savannah Guthrie made the announcement at the top of the "Today" show. "We are devastated," she said.

If you have read the site at all, then this should not come as any kind of shock to you at all. What is shocking is that NBC didn't fire him a long time ago.

Matt Lauer Signs Today Show Extension

Sorry Ryan Seacrest, it doesn't look like you will be filling Matt Lauer's shoes on Today for a few years. NBC signed Lauer to an extension yesterday which will keep the host in place for several more years. He will continue to make cajillions of dollars a year for a show that has lost its mojo and to a guy that not many people on the show like. Of course if Matt doesn't like them they end up canned so everyone pretends to love Matt. He has been the host of the show since 1997 and the contract will take him through year 20. Katie Couric was a host for 15 years which was the previous record. Waking up at 3am for so many years must be something your body gets used to. I wonder if he just sleeps through his entire vacations. Of course, making $25M a year and having someone drive you to work every morning makes those early morning alarms a little easier to handle.

Speaking of Miley Cyrus, Matt Lauer decided to go as Pamela Anderson rather than the every other person choice.

Matt Lauer Sucks

After reading article after article the past month with the New York Magazine article this weekend the icing on top, one thing is certain to me. Matt Lauer loves himself and himself only and is a huge ass. Is that two things? I as hoping it was just one thing because if it is two things I feel forced to make a list and it will be way longer than just two things. The article says that Matt Lauer can't stand Ann Curry and was not going to work with her anymore. he could say that because ABC was offering him a contract and Matt was getting ready to bolt. Can you imagine if he had? NBC might be in first place and ABC probably would have had to fire Robin Roberts because Matt would feel her cancer was taking away from his airtime.

NY Times Says Matt Lauer Will Be Replaced

You know what sounds cool, but has no basis in reality? Last week I wrote that Matt Lauer was going to be dumped by the end of May sweeps if the ratings did not improve. One of my sources was not in the meeting, but her boss was and the boss kind of wants to sleep with his employee so has been telling her everything. Anyway, then this week The NY Times ran essentially the same story and it sounds like they were in the same meeting. I think the boss is leaking stuff to the Times. I get the employee he wants to have sex with and the Times gets the actual guy, because he again feels like a big shot. Oh, going back to the sounds cool part? It could have just been the NY Times saw my excellent reporting and decided to followup. Corroborate stuff or whatever it is they do there other than lay off people and hemorrhage money. Now all the tabloids have followed The Times' lead. Oh, if you are worried about my source and me burning her, no worries. She said it was fine and that her boss would be the one to get fired and she hates being pawed at by him anyway so would be willing to quit.

Matt Lauer Blames NBC For Ann Curry Mess

Matt Lauer gave an interview to The Daily Beast and basically blamed NBC for the way the Ann Curry debacle happened. According to Matt it had nothing to do with Matt and that he, being the noble guy he is offered to resign. If he offered to resign, NBC would have jumped all over that in a second, especially if they didn't have to pay him. Matt is trying to do what he can to save his job and get back fans, but ticking off your bosses while you face a May deadline is probably not the best move. It also makes you look like a whiner.

“I don’t think the show and the network handled the transition well," Lauer tells Kurtz. "You don’t have to be Einstein to know that. It clearly did not help us. We were seen as a family, and we didn't handle a family matter well.”

Umm, you kicked her out of the house Matt and now want the world to think it was your parents who kicked her out. Nope. It was you. You wanted Natalie Morales in your house and decided to kick out Ann and when she cried you made it seem like it was not your idea at all.

Matt Lauer Has A May Deadline To Boost Today's Ratings - Ryan Seacrest In The Wings

Today Show executives have privately decided that Matt Lauer has until the end of the May sweeps to boost the ratings of the Today Show or he will be replaced. Each day the numbers get worse and as bad as primetime has been for the network they always used to be able to count on Today to at least provide a bright spot. Now they have nothing. If the numbers don't dramatically rise, then Ryan Seacrest is on the top of the short list to replace Matt. They think Ryan will bring in a fresh audience while also hanging on to what is watching the show now.
