On the one-year anniversary of Matt Lauer's firing, Linda Vester calls for an independent investigation into misconduct at NBC News
-
Vester, a former NBC News correspondent who accused Tom Brokaw of sexual misconduct earlier this year, writes in a Fox News website Op-Ed: "Thursday will mark one year since Matt Lauer was fired from NBC’s Today show for sexual misconduct. But since that reckoning, has NBC News really changed? The culture and management of NBC News continue to silence women, while parent company Comcast apparently does nothing. It is time to hold the Comcast Board of Directors accountable. NBC News may have conducted a limited “culture review,” but I continue to hear from women working there that harassment still goes unpunished, that they still face intimidation, and that they still fear for their careers if they complain."
