PBS does not fund this nightly program or supervise its production, but we expect our producers to provide a workplace where people feel safe and are treated with dignity and respect."
Statement released by CBS:
"Charlie Rose is suspended immediately while we look into this matter. These allegations are extremely disturbing and we take them very seriously."
