CHARLIE ROSE SUED BY 3 CBS STAFFERS FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT

5/4/2018 9:47 AM PDT

Charlie Rose just got hit with a sexual harassment lawsuit from 3 women he worked with at CBS, including his personal assistant.

The women include a broadcast associate, a news associate and Rose's executive assistant. In the suit, 2 of the women -- Katherine Brooks Harris and Sydney McNeal, his assistant -- say Rose told them they were hired specifically because he likes tall women.

They claim he also boasted about his sexual conquests and encouraged them to share their sexual experiences. Harris and McNeal say Rose would tell the women they should become lovers ... with each other, not him.

Harris says she once wore a mini-skirt with roses on it, and the ex-"CBS This Morning" anchor said they were HIS roses. All of the women say he would repeatedly caress and touch their bodies, including their arms, shoulders, waists and backs. They allege Rose pulled them close to his body and kissed them on the cheek.

Barf! Let's see how cool Charlie gets through these three, and possibly other cases. If true his behavior is disgusting, assaulting.

Hope he dresses for court in his finest, 'Swinger Bachelor Bathrobe'!



“Good lord,” Meyers said. “Usually when someone that old is walking around naked, a couple of male nurses lead him right back to his room.” ~ Seth Meyers about Charlie Rose.
