This is the next shoe to fall, as was postured on the Charlie Rose thread.
A prominent man, also in the news business, also today, has been suspended.

Glenn Thrush, prominent New York Times reporter, suspended after sexual misconduct allegations
"It had been a remarkable year for Glenn Thrush. One of the breakout reporters chronicling the 2016 election for Politico, he ascended last December to the White House beat for the New York Times and later, an MSNBC contract. His vivid accounts of West Wing intrigue earned him and his frequent co-writer Maggie Haberman a plum book deal. His rising visibility in the White House press room even merited a caricature on “Saturday Night Live.”
And then, Thrush was suspended by the Times on Monday — the latest in a series of influential men hit by allegations of sexual misconduct.
Earlier that day, the news site Vox published a story accusing Thrush, 50, of having a “history of bad judgment around young women journalists.” In the article, three women said Thrush had made unwanted contact or advances toward them. One of them was the story’s author, Laura McGann, who wrote that Thrush, after a night of drinking with colleagues, put his hand on her thigh and tried kissing her against her wishes. McGann wrote that she had interviewed 40 people “in and around media who know Thrush,” and painted a portrait of a powerful media figure who often crossed the line with female reporters in their early 20s.".
And the allegations, some the men have have admitted to just keep coming...a flood of them.
In the worlds esp. of politics, the news and of Hollywood.
