Just last month, PBS suspended talk-show host Charlie Rose after he faced his own set of sexual misconduct allegations.
The investigation revealed that Smiley engaged in multiple sexual relationships with female staffers, some of whom believed their continued employment with Smiley hinged on those sexual relationships.
Another prominent media figure is off the air at PBS: Tavis Smiley‘s self-titled talk show has been suspended indefinitely following “multiple, credible” accusations of sexual misconduct and abuse.
Smiley’s self-titled talk show debuted on PBS in 2004, featuring in-depth guest interviews and discussion of current events.
