Les Moonves, one of the most powerful men in media, is expected to step down as the chairman and CEO of CBS by Monday following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct against him, CNNand Variety reported Sunday.
Citing two executives “with direct knowledge of the matter,” CNN said the CBS board of directors is expected to announce a deal for his exit by Monday morning. The move would come roughly a month after The New Yorker published an article alleging that Moonves harassed several women with unwanted kissing and touching and contributed to the network’s overall toxic workplace culture.
CBS did not immediately respond to a request for comment from HuffPost.
