CEO Leslie Moonves will leave CBS without severance package; separate deal will reshape ...
LAtimes ^ | September 9, 2018

Bowing to pressure brought on by a sexual harassment scandal, CBS Corp. Chairman and Chief Executive Leslie Moonves is expected to resign late Sunday, according to two people familiar with the matter who were not authorized to comment publicly. His resignation would mark a stunning fall from grace for one of Hollywood’s most revered entertainment executives.

Negotiations over the terms of his departure accelerated following a new report Sunday in the New Yorker magazine, which detailed six women’s allegations of sexual misconduct involving Moonves in the 1980s and 1990s. Now a total of 12 women have alleged that Moonves made inappropriate advances toward them.

Well, I will continue to watch very little, if any of CBS’ crap programming and biased nonsense that passes as news.

I read that he’s getting $100 million to pack it in. Pretty nice retirement package. Seems to me that being a predator can pay off nicely.

I have little sympathy for these newsies but accusations of “inappropriate” actions from 20 and 30 years ago is just B.S.

So all these accusations stem from the time Moonves was married to his first wife? None after he dumped the first one for Julie Chen? Just curious.

Wow, the failed actor and whipping boy for Letterman when Dave first went to CBS has now fallen. I've figured that Letterman was eased out (or eased himself out) because of his long history of sexual harassment and hostile work environment. This is probably a comeuppance somehow. Thanks SMGFan.

I however would like to understand what appropriate advances are? To me the large amount of inappropriate advances were quite appropriate until 15 years later and the 401K needs a boost.

This nervy dude actually went to court to take the Redstone’s company away from them, because he disagreed with them. GasBagarino didn’t understand that was un-American. It is the ultimate Karma that hes going to walk with squat and face charges.

Get set for some of those Trump-like hush money payments and see how readily they are accepted by the same idiots who think Trump is such a horrible person for illegally doing it.
