According to NBC News, NBC has paid severance to a female staffer in 1999 who accused Christ Matthews of sexual harassment. Matthews was making inappropriate jokes and comments to this female staffer in front of other people. NBC News reported that a confidentiality agreement could not reveal the amount given to the staffer but The Daily Caller reported that it was $40,000. An MSNBC spokesperson told NBC News that during that time when the matter was brought up, Matthews also received a formal reprimand for what he did.
