The Ellen show scandal
The Ellen show has received a lot of flak in the last few days. There have been allegations of a toxic work environment, racism, and sexual misconduct.

Both the employees as well as the audience members have given negative comments on the show. Later, Ellen wrote a letter to her staff that read:
“I have not been able to stay on top of everything and relied on others to do their jobs as they knew I’d want them done.”
“Clearly some didn’t,”
“That will now change and I’m committed to ensuring this does not happen again.”
