To its credit, CBS News has not shied away from reporting on its own top executives who stand accused of committing acts of sexual harassment and tolerating a culture of inappropriate sexual behavior -- most notably within the CBS News division. Stories seen since the end of July on various CBS News programs have not evaded the key issues or, more importantly, the details of the accusations leveled by women who told their stories to the New Yorker's Ronan Farrow. The details, complete with direct quotes, have been splashed across TV screens in several stories produced by the very division that is under scrutiny. In all the stories, CBS Chairman and CEO Leslie Moonves and former CBS News Chairman and current “60 Minutes” executive producer Jeff Fager were featured prominently.
