The Hollywood Reporter

In a memo today to staff, NBCUniversal TV and Streaming chairman Mark Lazarus responded to allegations that Telegdy fostered a toxic work culture along with his top deputy Meredith Ahr. Telegdy exited the company Thursday as part of a larger restructuring plan. "We are going to conduct both an investigation into the specific allegations, which will be led by an experienced outside investigator, and a broader culture assessment," Lazarus said in his memo. "The culture assessment will be facilitated by NBCU’s corporate Fair Employment team and will give me the chance to learn more about your experiences.  I want to hear from you, and I encourage all of you to participate. Once it’s complete, you have my commitment to develop and communicate an action plan based on your feedback."
