Mike was also the first play-by-play voice of Ring of Honor for their TV run on HDNET (now AXS TV) pre-Sinclair ownership. RIP

Chen may likely stay as there is a precedent for people married to network executives sticking around after the executive leaves. In fact, Univision (parent of this website) has an anchor (Pamela Silva Conde of Primero Impacto & Univision 23 Miami fame) who was married to the president of the network (Cesar Conde) befo…

There was also a report on Variety that members of the CBS board want to kill off the severance package entirely as the investigation at CBS News got rolled into the larger CBS corporate investigation

It depends on what Chen and CBS decides to do - - if she stays, she'll stay on her respective shows. If not, they will just recast her roles since "The Talk" is an ensemble show and "Big Brother" is mostly on the contestants.

Oh please, do go on..

Thanks for the clarification. I’m seeing in other places that he was a PBS employee but he wasn’t, so I got confused.

Just a heads up about that screenshot — It’s fake, as disproven by MSNBC themselves

From what I understand (and correct me if I’m wrong), Smiley wasn’t an employee of PBS since he produced the show through his production arm and was syndicated through PBS member station Thirteen/WNET New York (originally KCET in L.A.) and the PBS stations are member stations but aren’t owned by PBS. Yet the network…

Here’s Aretha’s performances on Late Show including her 2014 performance

Not to muddy your point but didn't that incident in Annapolis effectively was the Charlie Hebdo type incident? 

Still is, actually. He said he may end up running for Sheriff in Florida in 2020 

She may be talented but she’s become her worst enemy of late. She’s becoming more known for these social media escapades which pushes her music to the backburner. If she’s as talented as you say, the talent and music should be front and center and NOT her Twitter beefs.

TBH, that Netflix check showed her how much her voice carries.

While I believe you and agree, no person should have a BED in their office unless they’re first responders and / or medical personnel.

He had a BED?! To reiterate, Moonves had a BED in his office, Roger Ailes had guns in his office door and Matt Lauer had a button that locked his office door on his desk. My question is WHO IS GIVING PEOPLE ALL THIS CRAP and does NO ONE BOTHER TO EVEN ASK WHY THEY NEED THIS?! 

This is what I’m noticing: Moonves had a BED in his office, Roger AIles had guns in his office door and Matt Lauer had a button that locked his office door on his desk. My question is WHO IS GIVING PEOPLE ALL THIS CRAP and does NO ONE BOTHER TO EVEN ASK WHY THEY NEED THIS?!

Big Brother is just another CBS property that are (despite conventional logic & being on for too damn long) never-ending money makers (Big Bang, NCIS, Survivor) because CBS Cares

I’m thinking what happens to CBS News if the CBS / Viacom merger happens goes through given all the allegations at the news division especially on heels of new allegations against the former chairman and current 60 Minutes EP

Didn’t Letterman’s hiring predates Moonves’ run at CBS?

But given the circumstances, won’t CBS just put Chen on the bench from her two shows until an outcome is decided? Because IIRC, Chen was the other woman in Moonves' marriage
