The lawyers for Matt Lauer are reportedly trying to get the ex-“Today” host a $30 million “golden parachute” after he was fired.

Lauer reportedly made at least $20 million per year before he was terminated this week. NBC News said that he was fired over allegations of sexual misconduct in the workplace—which Lauer apologized for in a statement read aloud on “Today” on Thursday, Nov. 30.
