With luck, yes. Networks could use the savings on stars to invest in raising the pay of the producers and reporters who do the real work and hire more of them. How many journalists can you get for one Matt Lauer?

Never put Matt on the journalist side of the equation. He was a host.

How about firing the people who got the Iraq, Libya and Syria wars so very wrong? I heard there was even some sexual assault in the wars - that have killed upwards of two million people now - too, did you know that?http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1340207/I-didnt-think-Iraqis-humans-says-U-S-soldier-raped-14-year-old-girl-killing-her-family.html …

Or, and stay with me here, maybe we hire women for these roles? I know it's out there, but it just might work

Lauer was never a “star”. He has been and always will be a piece of shit.

Maybe USA Today should ask itself how many WOMEN TV news stars have been fired for abusive behavior. Then it might be on to something. (P.S. You're one of the good men, Brian)

It's time to put the women in charge. Women are able to get shit done without assaulting people, apparently.

Or asked more precisely, is the era of ego-driven male TV news stars over?
