Today Show reports a supposed sexual harassment incident between Lauer and Geist.

The Today Show did a bit this morning I have to assume is their weak, sick
attempt at satire in which Lauer accuses Willie Geist of sexual harassement.

This is just not funny. They have really sunk to the gutter for ratings.

I had to turn the channel. I really do hate the Today Show and vowed to never watch again after the way they treated Ann Curry but it's been sneaking back in on me because I watch our local morning news on NBC. I really need to remind myself to turn the channel as soon as it comes on. UGH!!!!

totally judgmental interview of the man who took photographs of the subway victim. I found that to be disgusting.

Savannah Guthrie, the supposed lawyer, taking part in this.

So very glad I stopped watching all these ridiculous morning shows long ago...
