"not a natural for the couch"
The pictures are in order of the article's pages, although most of them are not of consecutive sections.

That's a picture of the last part of the first page of the article.
In 2013, whatever had happened for Ms. Curry to be fired was either being treated as if it were her fault or as if it didn't matter. For all the talk, he wasn't fired for his behavior; she was.
"Fragile."
Translation of "fragile" as it's used in this context:
He's not aggressive, inappropriate and immature; she doesn't feel degraded, trapped, and disrespected despite all of her proven ability. He's not wrong; she is "fragile." This is the part of the pattern where the victim is called mentally unstable; "fragile."
Katie Couric didn't bully her about her clothes; Ms. Curry "took" the "teasing" "badly."
Speaking of Ms. Couric, this picture is not of the article:
That's a picture of the first Google result for "Katie Couric college."
"Battered," the article says his reputation was. BATTERED.
Translation:
Do not deviate from the script, even when the script is stupid.
Do not have real empathy for victims of tragedy so early in the morning.
Do not provide a contrast of intelligence and human decency to the crass white guy whom the network thinks is "more important" than you are.
Paragraphs 1-5 of Page 3:
Translation:
"When Lauer was onscreen with Curry, it was Lauer who became less appealing to viewers, not Curry," THEREFORE, "Curry was a problem."
That's a consolidation of paragraphs 1-5, which explains why capable women get fired all the time.
Paragraphs 3 & 4 of Page 4:
"$25 million a year to work four days a week."
"Which doesn't make him a horrible person--it makes him, for better or worse, a pro."
Translation:
Real men degrade women and are paid for it.
Paragraph 6 of Page 4:
"reality again intruding on television."
I was hoping that the entire article would have lines as funny as "not a natural for the couch," and it does.
Paragraphs 1 & 2 of Page 5:
Translation of Paragraph 1:
Looking Bad is the only sin; everything else is negotiable.
Translation of Paragraph 2:
Why didn't NBC sue Ms. Roberts or ABC for Ms. Roberts having "a cancerlike blood disease"? If the entertainment industry makes people sign contracts saying that they'll submit to being harassed and never talk about it, can't networks sue people at other networks for taking away ratings by having life-threatening illnesses? Why didn't they poison Ms. Curry so that she'd be sicker than Ms. Roberts? Did her contract not have a clause for that?
Paragraphs 4, 5 & 6 of Page 5:
Translation:
Why can't that dumb bitch stop crying? She knows she's making everyone Look Bad.
Paragraph 12 of Page 5:
"(Guthrie's) agent was furious when he saw how NBC fumbled the transition, believing NBC allowed Curry to hurt the show."
Does this need a translation?
Curry hurt the show; the show didn't hurt Curry. Isn't that the idea that's being described?
Paragraph 11 of Page 6:
Thanks for the disclosure.
Paragraphs 2 & 3 of Page 7:
Translation:
"You can't just repeat something over and over again until it sounds true (unless you're slut-shaming a woman or discrediting a rape victim). It's not fair (for me to be treated that way)."
Paragraph 5 of Page 7:
Translation:
We're never wrong; people are jealous of our success.
Paragraph 19 of Page 7:
If there's "nobody better than" Matt Lauer, what does that say about the media industry and its value system?
"Negative press"?
These are pictures of some of the messages that people have written to one of my past YouTube blogs, "Lena Kochman Boston," over the past few weeks. That blog is at the first page of Google results; that's why people write to it often. Most of the first few pages of Google results for "Lena Kochman" are hateblogs about me and are not websites that I published, although they feature several pages and videos republished out of context to ridicule me.
Those are a few of the messages.
No code, although I'd appreciate it if Mrs. Clinton would stop pinning this Tweet:
