Gutman scandal widens as harassment suit targets CBS anchor

CBS News anchor Matt Gutman, already a high-profile hire for CBS Evening News, is confronted by a sexual-harassment lawsuit from a former ABC News field producer who alleges Gutman made inappropriate remarks and sexualized comments about a female coworker; the report also recaps earlier ABC missteps by Gutman—including a Kobe Bryant helicopter crash error and a hospital-visit COVID policy violation—and notes CBS’s ongoing ratings struggles as it faces scrutiny over Gutman’s past conduct.
