Half the men in America would be out of work.

His exit is not based on those allegations. It's based on a complex issue involving legal control of CBS.

His contract says he can actually be paid up to $180 million for an exit compensation.

However, the allegations have not been proven yet and if they are there are conditions regarding his behavior that COULD end up with Moonves receiving no exit compensation at all.

Two different issues.

I agree. There's been an ongoing power struggle at CBS that began long before the accusations of misconduct. If they haven't been able to prove accusations and fired him over that, he could have sued them for more money than they're giving him now in a wrongful termination lawsuit and he could have said they smeared him as part of a conspiracy to oust him.

Well, after everything else that's come out, it seems pretty clear that Moonves needed to go and yes, they should have kicked him to the curb with nothing but the clothes he wore to work that day. It sickens me that they paid him off.
