Ethical implications to me, may be a precedent that this event is setting, as well as the actions taken during this event. Our event that we are to build a presentation on is the dismissal of Jian Ghomeshi. This was taken from the slideshow as well
2014 allegations and lawsuit
In the spring of 2014 Ghomeshi advised his employers at the CBC that the Toronto Star was looking into allegations by an ex-girlfriend that he had engaged in non-consensual rough sex.[33] Ghomeshi denied this accusation.[33] In early summer, a reporter contacted the CBC and alleged that Ghomeshi's behaviour may have crossed into his work environment.[33] The CBC investigated and concluded that there were no workplace complaints against Ghomeshi.[33] Ghomeshi denied the accusations again and the Toronto Star declined to go forward with the story.[33] On October 23, the CBC viewed what it later described as "graphic evidence that Jian had caused physical injury to a woman".[33] According to Vice Ghomeshi showed his bosses lewd text messages on a CBC-owned phone and graphic personal sex videos.[34] On October 24, Ghomeshi announced he was taking an indefinite leave of absence from the network to deal with personal matters.[35] Two days later, the CBC terminated Ghomeshi's employment,[4] with a CBC spokesperson saying "information came to our attention recently that in CBC's judgment precludes us from continuing our relationship with Jian."[4] Ghomeshi subsequently released a "lengthy Facebook post" [36] saying his dismissal was motivated by fear of an alleged smear campaign by an ex-girlfriend that according to Ghomeshi could release private details about his sexual life.[37] Ghomeshi filed a $55 million lawsuit against the CBC, alleging that the broadcaster misused "personal and confidential information provided to it in confidence".[38] He also filed "a union grievance alleging wrongful dismissal and defamation."[39] CBC has asked the court to dismiss the suit.[40] The Toronto Star published allegations by three women who said that they experienced violence from Ghomeshi without consent, as well as allegations by a former CBC colleague who said that Ghomeshi had sexually harassed her in the workplace.[3] A fifth woman gave an interview to CBC Radio's As It Happens on October 29, 2014, also alleging that Ghomeshi physically abused her on their first date.[41] By November 7, 11 women[1] and one man[42] had approached media outlets with abuse allegations against Ghomeshi.[43] Actress Lucy DeCoutere was the first woman to agree to the publication of her
