Katie Couric lent her support to Matt Lauer after he was fired from NBC for sexual misconduct in 2017.
According to the manuscript of her new book, Going There, aquired by DailyMail.com, the fomer Today Show anchor texted her colleague of nine years because it felt “heartless” to abandon him.
On November 28, 2017, the day Lauer was fired, Couric had a brief text exchange with her former co-host, which she reproduces in the book.
