So if "glib" was intended to convey that Lauer doesn't understand, it was wrong. If it was intended to convey that Lauer wasn't telling the whole story/was speaking in soundbites then it was OK.
I am not sure I get that distinction from the definition I cited but I will defer to your superior knowledge on these things.
