Why hasn't NBC mentioned the sexual harassment allegations against Shaun White?
-
The two-time Winter Olympics gold medalist snowboarder has had a "road to redemption" storyline" in Pyeongchang, but there has been no mention so far of the sexual harassment allegations leveled against him by his band's former drummer. According to Slate, "NBC declined to answer a series of questions about whether it was aware of the allegations against White, whether the network planned to mention the allegations or settlement on air, or whether it would ask White about the claims in an interview."
