Tune in to the Today Show at 7:40 tomorrow. You can see the alleged victim speak about her mental illness.


She has now indicated it will air on Wednesday (I assume the same time slot).
I'm skeptical that this is for real. Why would the Today Show want to talk to her about her mental illnesses rather than the sexual harassment allegations? They could interview any number of people about mental illness; there's nothing special about hers.
The Today Show cares about everyday people and the everyday struggles they face. This has NOTHING to do with her being a rich, good-looking young blond who has gotten a boost of fame during the past week.
Is there any real confirmation from NBC that this will be a segment on the Today show?
If so, I look forward to watching it.

If not, (and she's the one saying there will be a segment), that makes perfect sense to someone more than familiar with Bi-Polar disorder.




+1. I still think there is a plausible scenario where this whole episode is just sad.

I think it's still problematic that we have had those extreme comments. We had a reputable poster here claim she was a morally bankrupt individual with (in my opinion, tenuous without attribution) evidence. Such judgements, no matter how rare, do not look good when we haven't gotten an inkling of where this investigation is going.
Yes and if people were honest about his "reputation", they wouldn't have been surprised in the least.

If I have to watch the Today Show twice in one week and all I get for it is a detailed review of Al Roker's beard and a new recipe for Bunt cake I'm going to be pissed.

Thats my guess as to where this is headed.

Yeah, I've been trying to find confirmation of this and can't. If she's actually going to be on an NBC show tomorrow you'd think there would be something about it on one of their pages or their Twitter account or something.


I have no idea if she's being honest or not. But I worked on a case that was covered by one of the morning shows. I can tell you that (1) scheduling was very fluid to even get an initial day it would air; (2) even then we were given a very broad time slot; (3) our story got bumped to a new date at least once after a time was scheduled.

Edit: Meant to add (4) It was a decent sized story, involving some similar themes as this one, and there was no pre-airing hype, other than from the local lead in.

I had a bi-polar friend in college give me a lengthy explanation one morning about how I was behind a global conspiracy that was filming his life 24/7 via hidden cameras and broadcasting his "show" on closed-circuit TV.

Her IG story now claims that the story will run Thursday and "definitely not Friday".

Probably got bumped due to the Smollet story as well as the "rice rissoto segment". Not an issue for dislexists as perhaps those with lisps

This is true. They are very fluid. I recently placed a story on the Today show. It was scheduled for sweeps and then it got bumped about three weeks but still made it during the same sweeps period. If this is a legit story, it could be postponed for days, if not weeks. I wouldn't hold my breath.

Her IG story says it's confirmed tomorrow morning at either 7:32, 7:40, or 8am.

Who ever she is texting indicated that they'll confirm the time tonight.

She did tag the today show.

no kidding, today's feed was a lesson in running on Malibu beaches with her dog . I'm really, really trying to be charitable but maybe I'm out of touch. I'm 59 and lugged around toilets today from Home Depot in Maine where today was 45 and it seems like 80. Lord please. This is such a joke, yeah I said it.

I haven't checked this thread out since post 200 last Friday...the reddit thread on this looks dead.

Any cliff notes on where we are on this? Quickly trying to update myself leads me to the conclusion that Wilcox did nothing wrong and girl might be "confused".

In a sane world the "press" if we can give the Today show the benefit of that title would do a minimum of checking and verification before swallowing the story they are being peddled. Running on Malibu beach with her dog all the while suffering from all of the stress of her time as a "hydro tech" and mental health issues... What a pile of m@n#r* this is.

I would wait until she is actually on the Today show before you start criticizing the Today show.

really? Have you watched that show? It's horrible. I have absolutely no hesitation to criticize that show, it's dopamine and buntd cakes for the masses. Now the interview is another topic, but that said, let's see what she says. I'm dubious.

Did that story get deleted? All I see is a bunch of videos of her showing off her dresses and jumpsuits.

Yep, she's poor alright.

She might have deleted. It was after the post about Muslims but before the dress pics.

They last for 24 hours, but deleting it is highly suspect. If she tagged the Today show about it and is making this whole thing up, you'd have to think that they had her take it down. The plot thickens...

I was going to tape it but I can't figure out what the today show is. On NBC theres Today. Then after theres like two other shows with the word Today in it. Which one is it?

Reading the comments on Reddit were quite illuminating. It wasn't a particularly sympathetic crowd.
