In reply to the discussion: CNN's Toobin 'regrets' his role in pushing Clinton 'false equivalency' [View all]PatSeg
(47,427 posts)I just saw clips of him and found him extraordinarily mediocre. I couldn't imagine what he did to deserve that kind of paycheck. $25 million??? Then when I saw the way he treated Hillary Clinton, a presidential candidate, I imagined he would be severely reprimanded by his bosses. I was even thinking, "Damn, when she becomes president, you'll never set foot in the White House."
When Lauer interviewed Hillary, he kept rushing her and saying how limited their times was. Then with Trump he just kicked back and let Trump do and say whatever he wanted, kind of a "guy thing" I suppose.
I'm glad Lauer is gone, but he should have been gone a long time ago, because he is not very good at his job. Guess you have to be a pervert to get fired these days. Incompetence doesn't count.
