If multiple assistants were harassed, you knew. We’re not giving YOU a pass.
Via Free Beacon:
The visibly shaken female hosts of “CBS This Morning” addressed the sexual harassment allegations against their longtime colleague Charlie Rose at the start of their show Tuesday, saying “we are all rocked by this.”
An explosive Washington Post story published Monday reported on eight women who accused Rose of unwanted groping, lewd phone calls, inappropriate sexual advances and exhibitionism over decades in the journalism business. Rose was suspended by CBS News, Bloomberg and PBS—the latter two outlets carry his eponymous interview program—pending further investigation.
A stone-faced Norah O’Donnell and Gayle King led off their show with the report at a table where Rose has sat almost every weekday morning since 2012.
O’Donnell called it “news affecting all of us at this broadcast.” Frequently when Rose has been absent from the show in the past, a male CBS correspondent has filled his chair, but on Tuesday, it was just the two women.
