Eight women have told The Washington Post that longtime television host Charlie Rose made unwanted sexual advances toward them, including lewd phone calls, walking around naked in their presence, or groping their breasts, buttocks or genital areas.

The women were employees or aspired to work for Rose at the “Charlie Rose” show from the late 1990s to as recently as 2011. They ranged in age from 21 to 37 at the time of the alleged encounters. Rose, 75, whose show airs on PBS, also co-hosts “CBS This Morning” and is a contributing correspondent for “60 Minutes.”

Charlie Rose likes to pose as impartial but its well known he's a rabid Islamophillic Liberal underneath, he rather let the mask slip in his interview with Bill maher. Anyway he's moved in front of Moore in terms of number of allegations.

Charlie Rose is one of the most smug, arrogant, self-righteous, judgmental journalists I've ever seen interview people. This just confirms he's an even worse human being than I initially thought.

I hope this signifies some changes in law, ie, getting rid of statutory limitations for girls and women wanting to lay charges.

Yes. When he interviewed President Dr. Bashar al-Assad, the Lion of Syria, he continually blurted things out, interrupted him right after asking him questions, and so on. The guy is an obnoxious self-righteous liberal type, but those are qualities that make for a shit interviewer.

He is soporific indeed. How will we fall asleep now? :O

Although, I was amused at the story, I find it somewhat boring compared to the Al Franken story. Without a little pornographic evidence, it all seems so banal and contrived. I wonder what it was that made people harass women so many years ago. :?:

Really? I've been watching Charlie Rose since I was fifteen and I still find it riveting. At first I watched it because I thought it was a window into the wider reality and now I watch it to understand the pathology of respectable society, but I've watched thousands of hours of Charlie Rose. I hope they find a good replacement.
