NEW YORK—The top editor for the National Enquirer, Us Weekly and other major gossip publications openly described his sexual partners in the newsroom, discussed female employees’ sex lives and forced women to watch or listen to pornographic material, former employees told The Associated Press. The AP spoke with 12 former employees who knew about the investigation into Howard’s behaviour, though not all were aware of every detail. The outside investigator hired to examine complaints about Howard’s behaviour also confirmed to the AP that he completed a report. She complained to the human resources department about Howard’s behaviour on behalf of two female reporters. Stracher, the company lawyer, said no one interviewed by the outside investigator complained about Howard’s handling of pornographic material.
