Garrison Keillor, the former host of A Prairie Home Companion, said Wednesday he has been fired by Minnesota Public Radio over allegations of improper behaviour. Keillor, 75, retired as host of his long-running public radio variety show in 2016. The allegations involve an individual who worked with Keillor while he was producing A Prairie Home Companion, Minnesota Public Radio said in a statement Wednesday. Keillor appears with actors Meryl Streep and Lindsay Lohan in a scene from the movie inspired by A Prairie Home Companion. Keillor also is finishing a Lake Wobegon screenplay and a memoir about growing up in Minnesota.
