The Matt Lauer Reputation Rebuilding Tour continued the tour, this time stopping by The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.​

“It’s been an interesting year — no question about it,” Lauer told Leno.

“I am not a guy who complains — I love this job, I really do,” Lauer added. 

​The talk then turned to Kathie Lee Gifford’s letter of support for Lauer that she circulated among the staff. Lauer called the move a “very, very sweet” gesture, emphasizing, “She’s kind and she’s compassionate — and she’s been there.”

Here's the video of Lauer and Leno:​
