Staffers are angry, confused, and demanding answers inside ABC News after a lawsuit filed Wednesday alleged that former "Good Morning America" boss Michael Corn sexually assaulted two staffers. The allegations, which Corn has denied, have rocked all levels of the news network, I'm told by multiple sources. Reporter Joe Flint scooped that Corn, who had inexplicably left ABC News earlier this year, was facing sexual assault allegations from two of his former colleagues. Then, at 3:11pm ET, nearly 500 ABC News staffers got another email inviting them to join the call. Godwin was asked why the statement ABC News issued said that the network "disputed" the allegations.
