As one of the game show's four models known as "Barker's Beauties," Hallstrom had been a morning fixture in millions of homes. To counteract its image, "The Price Is Right" announced that Barker's Beauties would be adding a Black model. "That's exactly how we knew when she started having sex with Barker," Hallstrom says. "If one more thing happens on that set," Barker told him, "fire Holly." Before she left the show, Parkinson told Bradley she'd been fighting a stomach ulcer from all her battles with Barker.

CBS and its former president, Les Moonves, will pay $30.5 million as part of an agreement with the New York attorney general’s office, which says the network’s executives conspired with a Los Angeles police captain to conceal sexual assault allegations against Moonves. Moonves will have to pay $2.5 million, all of which will benefit stockholders who the attorney general said were initially kept in the dark about the allegations. At least one of those executives — one of the few privy to an internal investigation — sold millions in dollars of stock before the allegations against Moonves became public, which the attorney general’s office said amounted to insider trading. The captain then met personally with Moonves and another CBS executive and fed them confidential information about the investigation. The captain instructed the police officers investigating the complaint to “admonish” the woman not to go to the media with her allegations, according to the attorney general’s office.
A lawyer for CBS, now known as Paramount Global (PARA.O), said the company has tentatively agreed to pay $7.25 million and Moonves would pay $2.5 million to shareholders. Neither the company nor Moonves will admit wrongdoing as part of the settlement. Lawyers for CBS, Moonves and the shareholders did not immediately respond to requests for comment. CBS and Moonves agreed in April to pay $14.75 million to settle the shareholder case, which alleged they initially hid the misconduct allegations while publicly supporting the #MeToo movement. In December 2018, CBS said it had fired Moonves for cause and withheld his $120 million severance package.
New York CNN Business —Leslie Moonves, former chief executive officer of CBS, and CBS reached a $30.5 million settlement with the office of the attorney general of New York, Letitia James, on Wednesday. Moonves stepped down as CBS’ chief executive in 2018 following multiple sexual misconduct allegations. The exit marked the end of Moonves’ tenure atop one of the most powerful companies in the media world. Moonves denied the allegations. Moonves himself must pay $2.5 million, which will also go to CBS shareholders.
James said she referred the matter to the California Attorney General's office. The investigation found text messages between the LAPD captain, top-ranking CBS executives and Moonves that revealed the allegations. The captain also worked with executives for several months to prevent the complaint from becoming public, according to the attorney general's release on Wednesday. Moonves left CBS in 2018 after allegations of sexual misconduct and cultural problems in the company. "As a publicly traded company, CBS failed its most basic duty to be honest and transparent with the public and investors."
