Alexandra Poolos, who was fired by CBS last year, also alleged that her supervisor got drunk and propositioned her for sex while on a work trip to Italy.
A bombshell lawsuit claims that CBS’ “60 Minutes” has long been a cesspool of sex harassment — including allegations that star correspondent Lesley Stahl once asked a female job applicant whether she would be willing to “use her body to secure stories.”
That included allegations that Bar-On “made derogatory comments about the physical appearance of other women” including Stahl — adding that he “regularly mocked Stahl’s face and body and referred to her as ‘disgusting,'” according to the complaint. That’s despite years of alleged harassment of Poolos by Bar-On, who was her manager between 2011 and 2017.
Poolos alleged that CBS “retaliated” against her “even after her firing” in February of last year, according to the complaint. It was also alleged in the complaint that an “intoxicated” Bar-On “hit on Poolos” and “pressured her to come to his hotel room” while the two were on a work trip to Italy.
