In May, the star spoke out about allegations of a toxic work environment after announcing her show will end. In an interview, she told Savannah Guthrie that she was unaware of the pervasive issues throughout her workplace, where top producers engaged in sexual misconduct.
“I really didn’t understand it. I still don’t understand it. It was too orchestrated. It was too coordinated,” DeGeneres said.
“People get picked on, but for four months straight for me, and for me to read in the press about a toxic work environment when all I’ve ever heard from every guest that comes on the show is what a happy atmosphere this is, and how — what a happy place it is," she added.
DeGeneres, whose show has been one of American’s most celebrated talk shows since 2003, denied knowing about claims of sexual misconduct among her staffers, as well as allegations of toxic culture behind the scenes.
“I don’t know how I could have known when there’s 255 employees here and there are a lot of different buildings. Unless I literally stayed here until the last person goes home at night,” she said. “I do wish somebody would have come to me and said, ‘Hey, something’s going on that you should know about.’”
