This isn't necessarily a hill I need to die on.
I forgot which female celebrity I was listening to on the radio and neither her or myself were/are defending Lauer but apparently she made it sound like most executives have a button to close their door, and it's for privacy, private calls, etc.
I don't doubt that someone like Lauer used it for nefarious purposes but the act of not having to get up to close the door when you have a call you don't want others in the office to listen to doesn't sound like an odd reason to have said button. I'm not an executive and I don't know any executives but it doesn't sound far fetched reason.
Edit: However, I do work in a small office, where frequently, people get up and close their door because of proximity to other workers, privacy when they are on the phone.
