Matt Lauer hasn’t learned anything, which is made clear by his latest, very long statement in response to the rape allegations
Photo: NBC/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images Matt Lauer hasn’t learned anything. That much is clear from the very long statement he released in response to allegations that he raped a former NBC employee, Brooke Nevils, in 2014, the details of which are contained in Ronan Farrow’s forthcoming book, Catch and Kill. The “open letter” Lauer released is a 101 course in victim-blaming.
Nevils took her complaint to NBC’s human resources department with a lawyer, which led to Lauer being fired from the network in 2017. In his letter, Lauer describes his “encounter” with Nevils in Sochi as “the beginning of our affair.” He claims Nevils “certainly did not cry” during it; that she was an “enthusiastic and willing partner”; that she “embraced [him]” when she left the room that night.
Nevils very clearly had reason to feel coerced on some level by Lauer’s stature at NBC, which paid him $25 million a year. Farrow’s book also details how top executives at the network worked so hard to silence Farrow’s reporting on Lauer for their mutual employer that he ended up taking it to The New Yorker.
