The head of NPR's news department resigned yesterday following sexual harassment allegations reported in The Washington Post the day before.
The article accused Michael Oreskes of making inappropriate advances toward two women when he ran the New York Times' Washington bureau nearly two decades earlier. NPR itself reported a third woman complained to the news outlet's management about a sexually oriented conversation that Oreskes initiated in October 2015.
NPR CEO Jarl Mohn and Jonathan Hart, its chief legal officer, reportedly were aware of all three allegations but didn't act to remove Oreskes, according to The Washington Post.
