"Embattled NBC executives have been falling over themselves insisting they had no idea about Matt Lauer’s pervy past. But if anyone doubts that New York’s media elite was aware of Lauer’s reputation, they should look no further than a top secret “roast” of Lauer that took place in October 2008.The notorious event -- now legendary in New York media circles -- pushed the outer limits of sexist, racist, homophobic and obscene jokes -- and left little doubt that Lauer’s colleagues knew NBC’s biggest star had a troubled marriage and a wandering eye.
Last week, NBC’s own Joe Scarborough, who attended the roast but said he left early, feeling uncomfortable, brought it up on “Morning Joe.” Lauer’s peccadillos, he said, were not just known about. At the roast, they were celebrated. “The whole theme was that he does the show and then he has sex with people, with employees,” Scarborough said. “So was this whispered behind closed doors? No. It was shouted from the mountaintops and everybody laughed about it.”- Source

Ever since the corporations started making news an entertainment, profit center; it invited in hollywood which has always been "ground zero" for duplicity, hypocrisy and repugnant amoral behavior. The democrats bought into that early.
The Clinton's worshiped hollywood. While the republicans still hide behind their thin veneer of supposed "christian" belief, they too, support hollywood and the entertainment news reporters that are getting churned out by Fox news, whom are the ones I sourced this article from.
Sexuality rules in tinseltown and by normal christian standards its supposed to be a sin, unless that person supports your ideology. Then it can be overlooked.
The women involved in this, who not only didn't say anything about this behavior but encouraged it, are just as guilty as Matt Lauer himself.
