| Matt Zimmerman |
“We have recently learned that Matt Zimmerman engaged in inappropriate conduct with more than one woman at NBCU, which violated company policy,” a company spokesperson told TheWrap. “As a result he has been dismissed.”
The Wrap reports the network declined to comment on the number of accusers or the nature of their accusations; Zimmerman could not be reached for comment.
Zimmerman is the latest casualty in what has become a nearly daily torrent of accusations about powerful men in media and politics.
In addition to Zimmerman, NBC News was also forced to cut ties with contributor Mark Halperin after multiple women stepped forward to reveal past examples of sexual harassment while Halperin worked at ABC News. In addition to losing his regular perch on “Morning Joe,” Halperin was also dropped by his talent agency and saw most of his media/political empire implode.
