THR (link): The "Chew" co-host was named by four women as having inappropriately touched them. Tony Bourdain, of whom I was watching a few minutes on a prolly-illicit piping of CNN to YouTube last night, hinted at action against the chef.
If the show airs today, not a rock-solid possibility due also to News' followups on the scare during morning rush hour today at the bus terminal, don't expect him.

Meanwhile, it's been revealed that eleven WBUR Boston employees working on the nationally-syndicated (by NPR) talk show "On Point" accused host Tom Ashbrook of verbal attacks of young women, belittling of segment pitches at staff meetings, sex talk, unwanted touching, etc.--Ashbrook doesn't believe the accusations and says that perhaps the staffers weren't up to the pressures of a two-hour live daily radio program:

And the NY Times (link) today has a bunch of current and former NFL Network people, including Hall of Fame running back Marshall Faulk, accused by a woman once employed as a wardrobe stylist by the league-owned channel... Faulk and two other on-camera people, plus a former executive now at Bill Simmons' company, were suspended...

ABC is no longer airing the The Great Baking Showdue to allegations against its producer.
In light of allegations that recently came to our attention, ABC has terminated its relationship with Johnny Iuzzini and will not be airing the remainder of “The Great American Baking Show" episodes. ABC takes matters like this very seriously as we are committed to a safe work environment. This season’s winner will be announced at a later date (via social media

The hardcore fans of "Great...Bakeoff/Baking Show" who watch the original on PBS never warmed to Iuzzini and were more unhappy when Paul Hollywood replaced Mary Berry this season (Berry quit the franchise when it moved to Channel 4 in the UK, stating that the show should've stayed on the BBC--she's now doing cooking shows for the Beeb and I believe will be hosting and judging a new competition series). Add the fact that the first week didn't get good numbers and ABC probably did the right thing.

Batali was formally charged with assault today for the 2017 incident. I guess the recipe-apology was ineffective.
