With Matt Lauer out at NBC following his shameful, predatory behavior, the network had a vacancy to fill for their Olympics coverage. They’ve found someone with a much more sterling record of ethical behavior:

More from TVNewser:
As Adweek’s Jason Lynch reports Couric surprised a group of reporters during a media event at NBC this afternoon, ahead of the network’s coverage of the Super Bowl and the Pyeongchang games.
Couric will co-host the Opening Ceremony for the Pyeongchang Olympics on Feb. 9. alongside Mike Tirico. At the event, Tirico joked the two go way back, “to 45 minutes ago.”
What’s say we go way back to last year, hmm?

Nice work if you can get it.

This is a very good question.

It's an embarrassment to the industry that some reporters are allowed to be as unethical as they'd like and still get the highest profile assignments.
