Matt Lauer Was Basically Ann Curry's Only Supporter, So Says Matt Lauer
Before and after Ann Curry was dumped from the Today show, there were dozens of stories about how Matt Lauer was the one who ordered a hit out on her and he's the one who drafted her walking papers. Fuel was added to that fire when Ann hugged everybody but Matt on her last day. With Good Morning America beating Today in the ratings, Matt is now trying something called last-minute damage control. Matt tells The Daily Beast that while everyone was thinking he's the one who dragged Ann out the exit door, he was telling NBC to give her more time as his co-anchor.
Some source tells The Daily Beast that when Matt was told that Ann was out, he begged them to give her more time before pushing her into a smaller role. Steve Capus, the former president of NBC News, backed up that source's claim by queefing this out:
“When Matt was informed that we had made this decision, his good counsel was to go slow, to take care of Ann, and to do the right things. He was quietly and publicly a supporter of Ann’s throughout the entire process. It is unfair that Matt has shouldered an undue amount of blame for a decision he disagreed with.”
Matt admits that before Ann was let go, he took her to lunch and told her that he initially didn't want her as his co-host. Ann didn't have an agent at the time, so Matt advised her to get one right away. Ann already had an open sore on her heart from knowing that she was about to lose her job and then Matt pissed on that open sore by telling her he never wanted her to have the job in the first place. How nice of him. Matt really is supporting.
Matt then said that he knows Ann's firing wasn't handled very well.
“I don’t think the show and the network handled the transition well. 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.
In some ways being No. 2 in the ratings is a real shot in the arm, a kick in the pants. It makes you hungrier ... I don’t think it’s a bad thing to have a fire lit under your ass.”
What I got from this piece is that when Matt takes you out for a work lunch, he's only taking you out to tell you that he wishes he wasn't having lunch with you, because he wishes you weren't hired to work alongside him in the first place. What I also got from this piece is that Matt likes his side hos to dip their fingers in some hot sauce before fingering his b-hole.

What a self serving dick. I call BS. Matt Lauer is an arrogant scum. By saying this he is making matters worse because we all know it's a crock of lies.
What's the matter Matty? Sick of being yelled at whenever you are out in public or walking a New York City street?
*cough*Bullshit*cough* backpeddling much? You were the vilain in this so man up and own it.
Don't be fooled by Matt Laurer. A lot of people had his cut dick when he worked at MTV in the 1990's. Yes I've seen it.
they need to fire all the females still there (aka milquetoasts I, II, III, IV) and give the show to willie and lester.

Apparently, jockeying for position via backatabbing one person, blowing a few others, is worth it to get a gig on the highly unwatchable Today Show. Matt Lauer is a has-been boytoy, who mistakenly thinks he's a qualified journalist.
Just because his wife chooses to believe him, doesn't mean anyone else is interested in tolerating him.
Blow this fuckery up all ready.
Why are you pulling my dick sums it up nicely.
Fuck Willie Geist. TEAM LESTER HOLT!!!!!!!

This comes on the heels of the Cleveland Show Sunday where a rat in the show was called "Ratt Lauer".

Not only do I not believe this mess, but dude. It's been like two years. It's too late to do damage control.

More than any network, the "journalists" at NBC love to fuck each other over in the press, thinking it looks all transparent and "open." MK nailed it. It looks like what it is....assholes attempting to cover for each other. I feel bad for Ann Curry. But, she didn't have an agent????? When her "co workers" make MILLIONS and their jobs are under contract? And she doesn't have an agent?!?!?! (She really is kinda dim, then.)
Katie Couric bolted when it looked like the NBC War Coverage (Propaganda) was going to blow up the network. The massive reorganization looks like CNN has become NBC.
I hate TV media "personalities" as a general rule. But, I'm also cranky.
Matt Lauer is a dirt bag!

I want Willie Geist to get Matt's job. He's an arrogant fuck & I don't believe him. Anne's body language said it all when she signed off on her final show. I agree that all these mths later Matty wants to look like the good guy.

Kunty Karl and Morrissey should be hosting this shit. Now THAT is a show I would watch.

That would be a show to watch but I fear if those two got together, they would create a vortex of such bitchiness that it might envelope the universe.
Fire him.
I can't with these drama queens. You'd think this was Days of Our Lives with how they go on... #donotcare

I know Matt has been hosting Today for a good long minute now but everytime I see him, I still think of him hosting some kind of news thingy on HBO with Nina Griscom in the 90s. He had all his hair back then.
Oh, and of course it goes without saying that Matt is a huge fuckwit who smiles in your face and then stabs you in the back. Ann always looked scared and nervous as shit when she was on the air so her firing probably added years to her life and saved her money because I'm sure she was pissing and poo-ing in her La Perla panties every morning.
Matt is the kind if guy who is a douchebag, but wants to be thought of as a great guy.
I like douchebags better.

I have no love for Ann Curry, I think she is annoying, but Matt Lauer is a lying asshole.
And re: "a shot in the arm, a kick in the pants, a fire lit under your ass", ain't nobody got time for [all] dat!
I don't believe him. At. All.

Too little, too late douchebag! Fire him next, NBC!
He Stinks!
He must know how much he is hated.

I'm asleep when those shows are on. Even if they have someone you like you get the Morning Show version of it.
Liar.
Anne was okay for some stuff but her interviews sucked. She got shafted.
I kind Of like Willie.
The American viewing public Really believes you Saint Matt. You're being glib! Nothing will make me even consider viewing this horsesh** show. Kick Lauer out the door and I still wouldn't consider a return. Not even if they made Jessica Simpson or Jenny McCarthy co-dingbats.
Matt can suck my taint!

Ann has always sucked. Her shitty interviewing skills, her weird whisper technique and asking celebs in Africa hard hitting questions like "What's it like being so selfless" this bitch is and will always be in the wrong fucking job.
That being said, NBC and Lauer KNEW ALL OF THIS. And then they (ie:Matt) threw the bitch under a bus. Matt needs to own up to the fact that he instigated all of this instead of putting the blame on everyone else. And not only did he put the blame on others, but he told some ridiculous story about how fucking heroic he actually was. Fuck this guy.
Kunty Karl and Morrissey should be hosting this shit. Now THAT is a show I would watch.

FACTS are a liberal conspiracy!!!
I did feel really bad for Ann when all this happened. It just seemed unfair that they had known her and her style for so long and then they acted like her style was a surprise to them. It would have been better never to have promoted her to co-anchor if they didn't think she could do it than to promote her only to demote her later. She had already been there for FOURTEEN years, they knew what they were getting. It's like couples that date for eternity, then one party gives in and agrees to get married even though they weren't all that passionate about the relationship and then they ask for a divorce after a few months of being married. You waste everyone's time when you know what you want but you still give someone a chance "just in case," knowing full well that the odds are slim.
I wouldn't watch that shit show even if they had a daily feature in which they showed a guest dipping into the hot sauce and fingering Matt's b-hole. Not even if it was Tom Cruise day.

Matt, oh Matt, what happened to your hotness? Your nose and ears kept growing, but your hair didn't!
Between Matt's unpopularity, the embarrassment that is Kathie Lee, and Al Roker sharting in the White House, they oughta just cancel this mess and air cartoons and reruns in the morning.
I really like Willie Geist too, and I think it's only a matter of time before he jumps in to replace Matt. They need to do something since their ratings are in the toilet.
Matt got too big for his britches. He took over for Bryant Gumbel and shot to the top...mostly because of his co-anchors (Katie, Meredith).
Well, the faster they rise, the harder they fall. Time to go now, you arrogant fuck.
"My pug is smarter than your honor student."
I never liked this bitch. Not in the 90s, when women were all swoon-y over him, not now. Not ever.
Team Ann, Team Al. Hell, Team Al's shit-stained panties he tossed in the White House garbage can. Anyone other than fucking Matt Lauer.
Matt has been getting on my nerves lately. Although, I do like when he's really hard on politicians--if they don't answer the question he'll ask it again and let them know they need to answer it. Anyway, I like Willie Geist and I hope they have him take Matt's place as head male anchor once they decide to let Matt go.
*eyeroll*
Okay Matt. Whatever you say.
"My pug is smarter than your honor student."
Another show I couldN'T care less about who is hosting.
