The New Yorker magazine has published an article by Ronan Farrow detailing accusations of sexual harassment by CBS CEO Les Moonves and other men at the company.
Farrow interviewed 30 current and former CBS employees about alleged improper behavior by Moonves toward staff at CBS News and 60 Minutes. Farrow said six women said Moonves had sexually harassed them. Others told Farrow that other men at the company who were accused of improper behavior were promoted, as CBS paid settlements to the women who complained.
The New Yorker quotes victims as saying their careers were harmed by resisting Moonves’ advances. In a statement to the magazine, Moonves says he regrets advances made decades ago when he “may have made some women uncomfortable,” but he denies misusing his position to harm anyone’s career. The allegations against Moonves go back two decades but also detail more recent incidents.
