NBC issues hugging guidelines to staff in wake of Matt Lauer sexual assault scandal

Posted: 26 Dec 2017 10:31 AM PST

NBC issues hugging guidelines to staff in wake of Matt Lauer sexual assault scandalNBC News has issued new guidelines to staff in the wake of the sexual harassment scandal surrounding Matt Lauer, America's highest-paid television news host. Lauer was fired on November 28 after The New York Times reported allegations from multiple women about sexual harassment. He was the network's highest-paid star, earning $25 million a year. The broadcaster has now reportedly issued new behavioural guidelines, obtained by The New York Post. Employees have been ordered to report any inappropriate relationships in the workplace, according to the paper, and if they fail to do so, they could be fired for covering up for colleagues. Detailed rules also have been issued about conduct in the office, including how to socialise and even how to hug colleagues. "Romantic relationships at work are not exactly unusual, but now NBC says it is taking a zero-tolerance approach," a source told the paper. "Staffers have been told that if they find out about any affairs, romances, inappropriate relationships or behaviour in the office, they have to report it to human resources, their superior or the company anti-harassment phone line. "Staffers are shocked that they are now expected to snitch on their friends." The source added that there are also "a series of ridiculous rules" issued to guide office conduct. "One rule relates to hugging. If you wish to hug a colleague, you have to do a quick hug, then an immediate release, and step away to avoid body contact," the source said. "Also there's strict rules about socialising, including [not] sharing taxis home and [not] taking vegans to steakhouses." NBC News representatives have not commented. Matt Lauer with his co-host, Savannah Guthrie Earlier this month, NBC News said it would require employees to take anti-harassment training and conduct a "culture assessment" of the news division following Lauer's firing. Andy Lack, the chairman of NBC News, said in a staff memo that a review of the "inappropriate sexual conduct" charges that led to Lauer's firing resulted in interviews with at least 40 other employees. Lauer, a married father of three, has apologised for his actions in a statement read on his former show, Today, saying he was "truly sorry". He said that not all of the allegations that have followed are correct, but he admitted that "there is enough truth in these stories to make me feel embarrassed and ashamed." He said: "There are no words to express my sorrow and regret for the pain I have caused others by words and actions. To the people I have hurt, I am truly sorry. "As I am writing this I realize the depth of the damage and disappointment I have left behind at home and at NBC." His Dutch model wife, Annette Roque, is reportedly consulting divorce lawyers. The pair met in 1997 and married in 1998. Their first child, Jack, was born in 2001, followed by Romy in 2004 and Thijs in 2006. Ms Roque previously filed for divorce while pregnant with Thijs, but the couple later reconciled. On Saturday they were seen together at their horse farm in Sag Harbour, in The Hamptons, but with Ms Roque not wearing her wedding ring. Lauer was fired in the aftermath of the October 5 report into the behaviour of Harvey Weinstein, the Hollywood film producer. He was accused of multiple counts of sexual harassment, assault and rape, which he denied, and his downfall triggered a flood of similar accusations against politicians, media moguls and business titans, with a slew of resignations. Weinstein is currently in rehab in Arizona, and with his estranged wife demanding he pay their child support in advance for fear of him being bankrupted by law suits. Yet he is now a Hollywood pariah: on Christmas Day the rock band TENLo released a dark music video in which a Weinstein lookalike, played by former Saved by the Bell star Dustin Diamond, is stabbed to death.

Archbishop of Canterbury decries deceitfulness of populist leaders

Archbishop of Canterbury decries deceitfulness of populist leadersThe Archbishop of Canterbury has used his Christmas Day sermon to reflect on the deceitfulness of populist leaders and a year of terrorist atrocities. The Most Rev Justin Welby told the congregation at Canterbury Cathedral of the contrast between the humility of the Nativity story and many of the world's leaders. He spoke as the Roman Catholic Church's most senior cleric used his own address to call on people to move away from "radical individualism" in society, which is demonstrated by conflict on social media. Cardinal Vincent Nichols told the BBC: "In social media there's a barrage of views and once a statement or claim is made there's immediately a counterclaim, and the mode of exchange is conflict." In remarks that are likely to be interpreted by some as a jibe at Donald Trump, the Archbishop of Canterbury made pointed comments about the weaknesses of current world leaders.

Credit: Gareth Fuller/PA He told his congregation: "The nature of those who have power is to seek to hold on to it. "In 2017 we have seen around the world tyrannical leaders that enslave their peoples, populist leaders that deceive them, corrupt leaders that rob them, even simply democratic, well-intentioned leaders of many parties and countries who are normal, fallible human beings. "We have experienced across our country terrorism that kills the innocent, claiming that it is the path to freedom in God. "The nature of God who has all power, and from whom all power comes, is to lay it aside for love's sake and thus without fear, force or manipulation to offer true freedom for every human being." The Archbishop this year publicly spoke out against Mr Trumpwhen the US President shared videos from far-right group Britain First via Twitter. He said at the time: "It is deeply disturbing that the president of the United States has chosen to amplify the voice of far-right extremists." Earlier on Monday morning the Church of England's most senior cleric had given his Christmas message a modern twist by publishing extracts in a Twitter thread, complete with a hashtag. Across the globe, the Pope put the migrant crisis at the heart of his festive reflections, saying that the story of the holy birth had particular relevance as millions of people were "driven from their land".

"In Star Wars an abandoned orphan on a desert planet turns into a knight leading the struggle for freedom. "Platform nine and three quarters takes Harry Potter into a world of magic and purpose. "Not so in the gospel stories, even those of Christmas. Yes, the shepherds see angels. Yes, Mary and Joseph have dreams and are chosen as special people. "Yet after the moments of miracles life goes on almost as before - the shepherds return to their sheep, Joseph settles back as a carpenter, Mary raises children. "They flee as refugees, like over 60 million people today. "Yet their story is the beginning of ours, it is an invitation to lives of freedom, found through God's freely offered love."


Why Iran Could Be a Bigger Problem than North Korea

Why Iran Could Be a Bigger Problem than North KoreaThe Middle East is in a shambles, as Iranian proxy wars and other wars dominate Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Mali and Egypt. Iran is on the march in the Middle East following the P5 + 1 nuclear agreement that brought billions in sanctions relief, which means the Iranian regime is now the biggest threat to regional stability. Iranian proxies, which include Hezbollah, Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood and the Houthis in Yemen, allow the Iranian regime to project force on an unprecedented scale in the Middle East and emboldens other bad actors on the world stage.

Five dead after bus ploughs into Moscow underpass

Posted: 25 Dec 2017 06:35 AM PST

Five dead after bus ploughs into Moscow underpassFive people were killed when a city bus ploughed into a pedestrian underpass in western Moscow on Monday, traffic police said. It was not immediately clear what caused the accident as authorities said they were looking into several possibilities, including a technical malfunction. "A bus drove into a pedestrian underpass," a traffic police spokesman, Artyom Kolesnikov, told AFP. "According to preliminary information, five people died." Footage broadcast on national television showed a bus driving onto the pavement and then down the stairs of the underpass, running over several pedestrians before coming to a stop. Rescuers worked to pull the bus out Credit: AFP Moscow police said in a statement they were looking into two possible causes of the accident - the driver losing control of the vehicle and a technical problem with the bus. "The driver of the bus began movement and then changed his trajectory, which resulted in the bus going down into the pedestrian underpass," the statement said. "The driver has been detained. Police employees are working with him," the statement said. Three people have been hospitalised, the statement added. The accident happened around 3 pm (1200 GMT) near Moscow's Slavyansky Boulevard metro station, a prestigious residential area near one of the capital's main avenues. The accident occurred in a busy residential area Credit: Reuters Sirens were blaring around the metro station, with authorities preparing to pull the bus out of the underpass with a cable, an AFP correspondent at the scene said. The underpass and surrounding area were cordoned off by police, and several black body bags could be seen on the pavement, partially covered with falling snow. The emergencies ministry said two helicopters had been dispatched to the scene to help evacuate the victims. "There are dead and wounded," tweeted Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin. "We are providing emergency aid," he said, offering condolences to families of the victims. Sobyanin himself arrived at the scene, telling journalists he had ordered a full inspection of the entire Moscow bus fleet.
