Charlie Rose Suspended By CBS, PBS and Bloomberg Amid Sexual Misconduct Claims

The Washington Post spoke to eight former employees of Rose's show about his conduct.
In response to a Washington Post report detailing multiple accusations of inappropriate conduct, PBS and Bloomberg announced on Monday afternoon that both companies will stop distributing Charlie Rose's eponymous show, Charlie Rose. The nightly show is produced by Rose's company, Charlie Rose Inc.

Separately, CBS announced that Rose is suspended from his role as CBS This Morning co-host. Rose is also a contributing correspondent for 60 Minutes. "Charlie Rose is suspended immediately while we look into this matter," the network said. "These allegations are extremely disturbing and we take them very seriously." (The story was covered on Monday's CBS Evening News by correspondent Jim Axelrod.)

The Post spoke to eight women for the story about Rose, which focuses on his treatment of Charlie Rose employees between the late 1990s and 2011. None of the women worked for CBS or PBS, according to the report, and PBS, CBS and Bloomberg all told the newspaper that "they have no records of sexual harassment complaints about Charlie Rose."

"PBS was shocked to learn today of these deeply disturbing allegations," the organization in a statement. "We are immediately suspending distribution of 'Charlie Rose. ' ... PBS does not fund this nightly program or supervise its production, but we expect our producers to provide a workplace where people feel safe and are treated with dignity and respect. "

In a statement, Bloomberg said: "We are deeply disturbed to learn of these allegations and are immediately suspending the show from airing on Bloomberg TV."

"Most of the women said Rose alternated between fury and flattery in his interactions with them," the Post reported. "Five described Rose putting his hand on their legs, sometimes their upper thigh, in what they perceived as a test to gauge their reactions. Two said that while they were working for Rose at his residences or were traveling with him on business, he emerged from the shower and walked naked in front of them. One said he groped her buttocks at a staff party."

Q PATRIOT!!!

This might sound like a stupid question...

What is it with the elderly LIBERAL men, they parade around naked, hoping to entice women into having sex?

..and, a little less curious, what could a wrinkly old fart of a wimp of a man possibly say to a 20 or 30 something ... well.. ?   I'm just stumped!

Libs = Girly men, and girly men never get laid, women like real men, so entrapment is all they have.
Or as most call it, RAPE.

Explains why the women seem to have one thing in common, they see the naked old fart, turn and run for the door!
(the entrapment part would be the old fart locking the door... meh)
...and all it would have taken, one brave girl to bite down hard...  :blink:

Yeah, observing neat little steaming pile of horse apples is more appealing.  ...might even smell better.

I've never understood the attraction. He's beyond boring, I've enjoyed watching whiteflies swarming in the yard far more than anything he ever produced.

Watching his PBS show actually causes people to turn an unpleasant shade of dirty dishwater. You get a thirst for prune juice and cardigans.

$$$, prestige, job advancement, job opportunities, get in the movies......and then the big one, if life does not work out you have the opportunity to tell how you were taken advantage of. As we all know, young people can not be little greedy ones who are willing to do ANYTHING to get ahead, why they are just too young to know any better. 


Hollywood, politics, ect. is full of sleazy people, lets see the evening news report that.

They once did a Charlie Rose marathon in hopes of raising money, however, the problem with Rose is that one monotonous tone, libs all over the Bay area fell asleep watching before anyone had the mind to phone in a pledge, the end result was a bill from the audience for the burned in image of a half-cocked head with a depressed look on its face into their TV sets.

Pong games had this same effect on CRT screens back in the day.
