All these leftists think they're a bunch of Goddamned studs. Typical juvenile mindset that seems to be the foundation for all leftist behavior.

The longer this stuff goes on the more it begins to resemble the Salem witch trials or the McCarthy hearings. No judge, no jury, just we believe the accusations are "credible" and therefore , you are out of here. I realize a lot of these guys are in fact creeps but the feeding frenzy is getting out of hand.

This is amazing!

I'm not complaining, but why are all these victims coming forward now? It's like a different famous guy every day!

Is this some sort of bandwagon phenomenon?

For those of us who don't know, what's the back story here?

The abrupt firing of NBC Today Show co-host Matt Lauer prompted cheers among Hillary Rodham Clinton’s loyalists who feel the he was extraordinarily mean to her — and soft on President Trump -- during the 2016 presidential campaign.

“Another person whose interview with Trump was ridiculously soft and interview with Hillary was incredibly tough: Matt Lauer,” tweeted former Clinton aide Neera Tanden, president of the Center for American Progress.

Another former Clinton aide, Verrit co-founder Peter Daou, wrote on Facebook, "Matt Lauer was fired today. One by one, we're finding out the true character of the male journalists who treated Hillary Clinton (and her voters) with seething disdain."

“Remember when Matt Lauer kept interrupting Hillary Clinton and asking her about emails, yet went easy on Trump?” tweeted Rolling Stone contributing editor Rob Tannenbaum.

Look how unlucky it is to oppose the Clintons. Death, destruction, ruin, famine, pestulence...




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Lack and other NBC News executives have known for weeks that damaging stories could be coming out soon.

Reporters for The New York Times have been investigating Lauer for weeks, according to sources who had been contacted by the Times.

And Variety's New York bureau chief Ramin Setoodeh said on Twitter that he and his colleagues have been doing reporting "about serious sexual harassment allegations against Lauer" for two months.

"There were multiple victims," Setoodeh tweeted.

Lauer was informed of the network's decision late Tuesday night, before he went to bed, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.

And Guthrie, his co-host for the past five years, was told overnight.

I don't give a crap why. It's a good thing, these people are drunk with power. They think they are above the law or even common decency. If you try and force yourself on a coworker you should loose your job period. Karma bitches.
