NBC's Matt Lauer Fired for Inappropriate Sexual Behavior

RadioOnFire.com - NBC has just fired on-air personality Matt Lauer for allegations of sexual misconduct in the workplace. 

NBC Chairman Andrew Lack released the following statement:

Dear colleagues,On Monday night, we received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace by Matt Lauer. It represented, after serious review, a clear violation of our company's standards. As a result we've decided to terminate his employment. While it is the first complaint about his behavior in the over twenty years he's been at NBC News, we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident. Our highest priority is to create a workplace environment where everyone feels safe and protected, and to ensure that any actions that run counter to our core values are met with consequences no matter who the offender. We are deeply saddened by this turn of events but we will face it together as a news organization — and do it in as transparent a manner as we can.

While men in media and entertainment have been dealt with swiftly, politicians continue to keep their jobs amid the same type of allegations.
