CNN: CBS Board Denies Les Moonves $120 Million Severance

‘He was owed $140 million if they kicked him out for no good reason’

EXCERPT:

BERMAN: "Ousted CBS chief Les Moonves will not receive his $120 million severance payment. That decision comes in response to a pair of 'New Yorker' articles earlier this year where at least 12 women accused Moonves of sexual misconduct or harassment."
CAMEROTA: "Okay. I’m ready. Let’s discuss. Thank you very much. You are a good partner. Let’s discuss with CNN's chief media correspondent Brian Stelter and CNN media analyst Bill Carter. Great to have both of you here. So, not a surprise, I don’t think, Brian, that he — I mean, how could they have paid him his $120 million severance? By the way, it's hard to feel sorry for Les Moonves. He made $650 million. So I’m not sure that just depriving him of his $120 million severance is comfort for the women who said he victimized them and ruined their careers."
