CBS News and PBS fired Charlie Rose on Tuesday after eight women accused the veteran journalist of sexual misconduct.

"Despite Charlie's important journalist contribution to our news division, there is absolutely nothing more important, in this or any organization, than ensuring a safe, professional workplace—a supportive environment where people feel they can do their best work," said CBS News President David Rhodes in a memo.

"We need to be such a place," he added. "I'm deeply disappointed and angry that people were victimized—and that even people not connected with these events could see their hard work undermined."

PBS fired Rose not long after CBS News announced its decision to terminate the newsman.

"In light of yesterday's revelations, PBS has terminated its relationship with Charlie Rose and cancelled distribution of his programs. PBS expects all the producers we work with to provide a workplace where people feel safe and are treated with dignity and respect," PBS said in a statement.

The firings come after eight women accused Rose of sexual misconduct in a report published Monday by The Washington Post.
