PBS Suspends Tavis Smiley’s Show After Sexual Misconduct Investigation

PBS has suspended distribution of Tavis Smiley's self-titled nightly show after an investigation uncovered "multiple, credible allegations" of sexual misconduct against him.

The investigation found that Smiley, who has contributed opinion writing to TIME and hosted his show since 2004, had sexual relationships with multiple subordinates and created a verbally abusive and threatening environment, Variety reported. PBS distributes the show, but does not employ Smiley or fund the production.
