NBC News leader Andy Lack addressed accusations from Ronan Farrow’s upcoming book, Catch and Kill, that he and his department protected producer Harvey Weinstein and former 'Today' host Matt Lauer.
NBC News leader Andy Lack addressed accusations, published Wednesday in The Hollywood Reporter ahead of the release of Ronan Farrow’s upcoming book, Catch and Kill, that he and his department had protected producer Harvey Weinstein and former Today host Matt Lauer.
In a memo to staff, obtained by Yahoo Entertainment, Lack called the new details “deeply disturbing.” Lack said the company conducted an investigation after Lauer’s departure and found no claims or settlements related to inappropriate conduct by the host. At the same time, employees have been required to take anti-harassment training.
He continued: “After seven months, without one victim or witness on the record, [Farrow] simply didn’t have a story that met our standard for broadcast nor that of any major news organization. Not willing to accept that standard and not wanting to get beaten by the New York Times, he asked to take his story to an outlet he claimed was ready to publish right away. Reluctantly, we allowed him to go ahead.
