CBS CEO Leslie Moonves Steps Down Moonves is the most powerful media executive in America to step down in the wake of the #MeToo movement. The exit comes after six more women accused him of sexual misconduct in an investigation by The New Yorker. Ronan Farrow broke<br />the story. The report states Moonves forced oral sex, exposed himself, committed violent acts and derailed careers<br />from the 1980s to the early 2000s. Moonves’ departure comes without a severance package for now while the investigation by CBS continues. If the investigation works in his favor, he could potentially walk away with $120 million. The 68-year-old and CBS have pledged to donate $20 million to organizations that support the #MeToo movement. The donation will come from whatever severance Moonves may get from his leave.
