[See NewsBusters for more.] Almost ten months after bombshell accusations that ex-CBS This Morning co-host Charlie Rose allegedly sexually harassed and abused women, co-host Norah O’Donnell lamented how “hard” it was to now have “my boss,” departing CEO Les Moonves, also be accused of sexual assault. After a full report opened the show, O’Donnell began her personal remarks with self pity: “This is hard for everybody as CBS News.” O’Donnell, who worked daily with alleged harasser Rose, complained, “...The most powerful media executive in America has resigned in the wake of this Me Too movement and he's my boss  — or he was my boss.” She added, “Les has always treated me fairly and with respect.”
