“The Today Show” co-host Matt Lauer is the latest alleged liberal pervert caught with his hand in the proverbial cookie jar.

NBC’s Lauer was considered a morning show king, and according to MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” co-host Willie Geist was “the most powerful person at NBC News.” Let’s take a trip down memory lane.

Just a few months prior to the news breaking about his workplace Wednesday, Lauer bravely took on former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly in a segment on “Today.”

WATCH:

This interview was in September. When does Fox News get to interview Lauer on his allegations?

Let’s not forget the hilarious sketch Lauer acted in where he flashed his genitals at various colleagues (causing one to fear that she may begin lactating). Yes, the sketch was a joke — but the joke was on all of us.

Here is a (now very awkward) segment of a pants-less Matt Lauer exposing himself to four NBC women, saying "Drink it in ladies!"
One of them asks "Again Matt?"

It’s interesting how Lauer chose to make former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton the focus of a story back in 1998 instead of former President Bill Clinton.

After the infamous Billy Bush tape leaked in 2016 featuring President Donald Trump’s “locker room talk” about grabbing female genitalia, reports broke claiming Lauer and his other “Today” co-hosts wanted journalist Bush off the network entirely.

Lauer spent time defending women. He had the honor of introducing “Today” co-host Samantha Guthrie at the 2017 Matrix Awards in April, a ceremony to honor women in the communication field.

Perhaps Lauer needs to remember that honoring women doesn’t mean making aggressive sexual passes.
