Charlie Rose

Project: Charlie Rose Show

Acclaimed interviewer Charlie Rose first began his career in 1972 as a weekend reporter for WPIX-TV while he was still working in New York with the historical bank Bankers Trust. Not long afterwards, he was hired by then-journalist, former White House press secretary Bill Moyers in his PBS series Bill Moyers’ International Report. Here, Rose would be a managing editor, and a year later into his career he was named the executive producer of Bill Moyers Journal. All of these roles established a solid foundation for what will be his very own show, The Charlie Rose Show.

However, all good things must come to an end, and in 2017, Rose was fired from his jobs in both CBS and PBS. This was in light of multiple allegations concerning his inappropriate conduct by eight women. In 2018, the tally grew to 27 more women, all of whom had been working with the interviewer for over 30 years. Due to this, he had to hire multiple lawyers to defend himself. Now, the former TV personality lives with moderate privacy in his Long Island home.
