You'd think that NBC would be a bit more concerned about it given that Matt Lauer would have been one of their Winter Olympic presenters, had they not fired him for being a serial sexual harasser
The BBC didn't mention it either. It just kept mentioning him being a "controversial figure" in the world of snowboarding. I figured they were just talking about him jumping up and down like a twat when he wins.
