Whatever it was, it was enough for MPR to completely sever the relationship.

He’s morphing from their most prominent celebrity into an Unperson as we speak. If that was just over a consensual affair, it would be a wild overreaction.

Move for money? Why would MPR fire their moneymaking headliner over nothing?
The climate of the time with sexual harassment becoming a topic of the hour. Lawyers will sue on anything if there is money to be had. And in my experience will not even take meritorious cases if there is no money to make. It is about the green.

The accused's character and other instances should be taken into account.
