In light of the whole CBS having to pay a bunch of money because of Les Moonves’ behavior, I am reminded of the reason this permanent A list radio host used to have so many p.o.r..n stars and strippers on his show, back when it was good.

They would do the show and then various executives would take them to “lunch.”

LAPD to Investigate Captain Accused of Tipping Off Leslie Moonves About Sex Assault Investigation

The LAPD said Wednesday that it has begun an internal investigation into a retired police commander who allegedly tipped off Leslie Moonves, then the CEO of CBS Corp., about a sexual assault investigation in November 2017, and who swore his “allegiance” to Moonves as he worked to keep the allegation out of the press.

The LAPD identified the retired commander on Wednesday night as Cory Palka, who left the department in February 2021 after 34 years on the force.

Palka’s conduct came to light on Wednesday as part of the New York Attorney General’s investigation into the company’s handling of the sexual misconduct allegations that ultimately forced Moonves’ ouster in 2018.

According to a 37-page report, Palka disclosed the woman’s allegation to a CBS executive just hours after she made the complaint. Palka later gave CBS executives a full copy of the confidential police report, including the woman’s personal identifying information, and took numerous steps to keep CBS apprised of the progress of the investigation.

LAPD Chief Michel Moore called the Palka’s conduct “appalling” in a statement on Wednesday evening, and said that an internal investigation had been opened into him and any other LAPD members who may have been involved.

“What is most appalling is the alleged breach of trust of a victim of sexual assault, who is among the most vulnerable, by a member of the LAPD,” Moore said in the statement. “This erodes the public trust and is not reflective of our values as an organization.” – Source
