Former TV host Charlie Rose settles sexual harassment lawsuit

Former TV host Charlie Rose has resolved a sexual harassment lawsuit brought by three women in the wake of his #MeToo-era ouster from CBS News in 2017 and the cancellation of his long-running, eponymous PBS talk show.

In settling, the plaintiffs said they assign no "ill intent" to Rose and realize now that his conduct could be subject to interpretation.

Lawyers for Rose and the women — younger employees who accused him of "predatory behavior" and "blatant and repeated sexual harassment" — filed court papers this week confirming that the lawsuit has been resolved. An online court docket listed the case as settled. The terms were not disclosed.
