The famed actor Morgan Freeman has been accused of multiple counts of sexual harassment by eight different women. Reports cite episodes of inappropriate behavior throughout his long career by production assistants, employees at his production company, and other colleagues. Victims cited claims of physical acts and crude remarks made by the actor, which he denies. A reporter who endured harassment by Freeman during an interview prompted the disclosure of the other encounters.
Hollywood is littered with disturbing allegations of sexual harassment, misconduct, and assaults by famous and sometimes beloved celebrities. Claims filed against renown entertainment personalities such as Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein have helped unearth the troubling behavior, so that it will be eliminated, and victims can gain justice. Other industries besides the entertainment industry face the same issues and must adjust their policies in order to protect employees from the toxic behavior.
