Charlie Rose

Charlie Rose, 2014

Charles Peete Rose Jr. (born 5 January 1942)[1][2] is an American journalist and talk show host. From 1991 to 2017, he was the host and executive producer of the talk show Charlie Rose on PBS and Bloomberg LP. On the show, he interviewed writers, politicians, athletes, entertainers, businesspersons, leaders, scientists, intellectuals and fellow newspeople. The show was known for its distinguished stature and intellectual tone.

Rose also co-anchored CBS This Morning from 2012 to 2017 alongside Gayle King and Norah O'Donnell, where he interviewed many celebrities, institutional leaders, and political figures. Rose formerly substituted for the anchor of the CBS Evening News. In 2012, Rose, along with Lara Logan, hosted the revived CBS classic Person to Person, a news program during which celebrities are interviewed in their homes, originally hosted from 1953 to 1961 by Edward R. Murrow.[3] Since 2022, Rose has hosted the online interviews Charlie Rose Conversations on his personal website.[4][5][6] Rose also occasionally appeared in films and television shows including Breaking Bad and House of Cards.

In November 2017, Rose was fired from PBS, Bloomberg, and CBS after The Washington Post published multiple in-house allegations of sexual misconduct from the late 1990s to 2011. Rose responded to those allegations by admitting to having behaved insensitively at times but did not believe that all of the allegations were accurate, and later suggested women were exploiting the #MeToo campaign.[7][8][9] The allegations also led to Rose being stripped of several awards and honors. In November 2024, the sexual harassment lawsuit ended with a settlement in which the plaintiffs acknowledged there was no ill intent on the part of Rose for his conduct.[10]
