Report: A Charlie Rose-hosted #MeToo redemption show is in the works

Page Six

Journalist Tina Brown, the former editor of The New Yorker and Vanity Fair, tells Page Six she was recently approached to produce a #MeToo atonement series that would have the disgraced former CBS News and PBS host interview other men embroiled in sexual harassment scandals. Brown also mentioned the proposed show this week at a Women’s Luncheon in Brooklyn, with a source saying she told the audience she had rejected the proposal while mentioning potential guests like Matt Lauer and Louis CK. Brown tells Page Six's Ian Mohr, however, she "can't remember" who exactly is behind the series. Page Six adds: "Three guests at the Brooklyn lunch recalled Brown mentioning the Rose show was pitched to her as a 'Netflix show.' But a source familiar with the streaming service told us that it’s not at all a Netflix project, and no one there had heard of it." This news comes amid a controversial news cycle that's seen several stories exploring how high-profile men could stage their comebacks.
