One ex-employee said head writer and executive producer Kevin Leman asked him if he could give him a hand job or perform oral sex in a bathroom at a company party in 2013. Another said they separately saw Leman grab a production assistant's penis. In May 2017, another former employee also said she saw Leman grope a production assistant in a car and kiss his neck. Nearly a dozen former employees, who range from longtime, senior-level employees to production assistants, said it was also common for Leman to make sexually explicit comments in the office, like pointing out male colleagues' bulges in their crotches, or ask them questions like, "Are you a top or a bottom?"

Dozens of former employees also said Glavin “had a reputation for being handsy with women,” especially in the control room, and managed the team through fear and intimidation. [...] Another former employee said Glavin would call over producers and assistants to sit near him when the show was filming segments they had worked on and, in front of nearly 30 other people in the control room, would touch them inappropriately.

In all, 47 former employees who spoke to BuzzFeed News said Glavin led with intimidation and fear on a daily basis. One former employee said when they turned in their notice, Glavin flipped over a table and chair while screaming. Five former employees also said they saw Glavin use a button at his desk to remotely shut his office door “as an intimidation tactic” during reprimands. [...] Ex-workers also said they were uncomfortable when Glavin used his private shower in his office bathroom. "You'd be going into his office for an important meeting and the shower door is open

eh

She's not funny. I've seen her show once and know it is run of the mill talk show shit.

Not surprised and won't be surprised when other shows have the same revelations in the days to follow.

It's typical Hollywood M.O.

you know none of the allegations are against Ellen, right?

 

[pachyderm]

Yes they are against people who ran her shows. They were bosses of some sort, shape, or form. You know that right?

You're familiar with how Hollywood works, right?

I get that...but this kind of shit isn't new and happens all the time.

why do you think other shows will have similar allegations? What are you basing that off?

 

[outofyourmind]

Are you saying she was oblivious to what was going on?

The sexual misconduct charges do not seem to be directed at her but there are other stories about what a total witch she is behind the scenes. Which totally contradicts her public persona. At the end of the day she doesn't matter

LOL at the office button to close the door. That’s a straight up Matt Lauer move. At this point, is there anyone who has such a thing where we DON’T think he/she is a sexual predator?

 

[TheDayMan]

This isn’t a new thing though. I remember listening to Loveline 20 years ago and Carolla and whoever the guest was were talking about how awful she is.

Congrats on your brilliant attempt to move the goalposts.

You didn’t quite get to Hitler or even Trump, so there is room for improvement.

Underrated, to be sure. Though if I’m being honest, any movie is automatically raised one letter grade by having Keith David in it.
