If anyone wonders why women are so reluctant to tell anyone about their experiences with sexual harassment or attacks, just read some of the comments here by people who aren't even in power or admired by the public.
Sorry. I'm going to encourage women to tell their story right away. Not 40 years later
I can't forget too, that he caused the lovely and talented Ann Curry the top position beside him...she was demoted as he made it clear he did not want to work with her. She disappeared from the Today Show, in tears...
The talented Natalie Morales was also removed from the Today show...reportedly she and L had an affair then when it was over, he didn't want to work with her.
Natalie dropped from The Today Show.
Sexual harassment plus being a rather despicable person no matter what his colleagues say...
Now Ann and Natalie are vindicated.
Vindicated but not made whole.
He is a despicable person, indeed. It appears he prefers females who support his ways.
Hey, I've got an idea...how about adult women grow a spine, and confront the men in question, instead of "running to mommy" and falling apart?

Everything is so easy when it's not you.
These women are not the ones in a position of power. They second-guess themselves, wonder what they did to bring it on, think they're to blame, feel guilt and shame, etc. but you want them to grow a spine. To do what? Hear the same accusations being leveled against them here?
Why don't some of you get a heart transplant and perhaps try and learn something about what happens after women experience such episodes. It would make you better people.
These are the same men who make snide remarks about what Hugh Hefner was doing but they want the same thing. Hugh was just rich and unabashedly enough to own a company called lets pleasure Hugh Hefner. So when young women applied for the job they knew what the job entails. That’s why they all they are embarrassed, they don’t want people to think of them like Hugh, but they are the same on somebody else’s dime in the workplace.
And what do you know, there is video footage out of sex toy talk in which everyone involved is joking around about. It's in regards to a female finding a huge bag of sex toys in Lauer's office. Yeah, remember that company culture thing I was talking about earlier? This is starting to shape up to where a whole lot of sex stuff was going on in that studio and everyone was in on it. Now all of a sudden it's now a bad thing that was going on.

This (bolded) is often the problem. Abusers are often protected by the company and believe they are untouchable.
