Who installed the button?

30 November 2017

Sacked US Today host Matt Lauer (click here) has been accused of sexual harassment by three women, as horrifying details of his alleged misbehaviour come to light.

Variety spoke with a number of his accusers, reporting that the ousted breakfast host had a secret button installed under the desk in his office, which was in a secluded space.

The button allegedly meant he could lock the door from the inside without getting up.

"It allowed him to welcome female employees and initiate inappropriate contact while knowing nobody could walk in on him, according to two women who were sexually harassed by Lauer," Variety reports....

Women need to continue their demand for work that is safe from their male peers. It would seem this idiocy is so rampant there is no stopping it.

...Lauer was one of the highest paid news anchors in the world - and in March it was revealed he paid $13m for a high country station in New Zealand's South Island on the shore of Lake Hawea....

He is going to need it. Soon, he will be a man without a country that will give him a job. This degree of assault, so well planned, is criminal.

Then again, it is only criminal unless one is wealthy and gets whatever he wants, whenever he wants.
