Television are committed 'to providing an environment where employees can flourish.'Įarlier this month a number of employees of The Ellen DeGeneres Show blasted it as a 'toxic work environment.' The memo insisted that producers Telepictures and Warner Bros. Stay safe and healthy.Įarlier this week, it was reported that her show was now subject to a probe by WarnerMedia which will look into 'staff experiences on set,' according to an internal memo. If not for COVID, I’d have done this in person, and I can’t wait to be back on our stage and see you all then. Again, I’m so sorry to anyone who didn’t have that experience. I want everyone at home to love our show and I want everyone who makes it to love working on it. I am so proud of the work we do and the fun and joy we all help put out in the world. that everyone who has something to say can speak up and feels safe doing so. I promise to do my part in continuing to push myself and everyone around me to learn and grow. We all have to be more mindful about the way our words and actions affect others, and I’m glad the issues at our show were brought to my attention. It’s been way too long, but we’re finally having conversations about fairness and justice. To think that any one of you felt that way is awful to me. As someone who was judged and nearly lost everything for just being who I am, I truly understand and have deep compassion for those being looked at differently, or treated unfairly, not equal, or - worse - disregarded. I’m also learning that people who work with me and for me are speaking on my behalf and misrepresenting who I am and that has to stop. That will now change and I’m committed to ensuring this does not happen again. As we’ve grown exponentially, I’ve not been able to stay on top of everything and relied on others to do their jobs as they knew I’d want them done. Alongside Warner Bros, we immediately began an internal investigation and we are taking steps, together, to correct the issues. My name is on the show and everything we do and I take responsibility for that. I could not have the success I’ve had without all of your contributions. Anyone who knows me knows it’s the opposite of what I believe and what I hoped for our show. Obviously, something changed, and I am disappointed to learn that this has not been the case. On day one of our show, I told everyone in our first meeting that The Ellen Degeneres Show would be a place of happiness - no one would ever raise their voice, and everyone would be treated with respect. That will now change and I’m committed to ensuring this does not happen again,' she wrote.

Anyone who knows me knows it’s the opposite of what I believe and what I hoped for our show,' she began her memo.Ĭontrary to Garrett's claims that the mistreatment came from her, she suggested other employees were to blame. On day one of our show, I told everyone in our first meeting that The Ellen DeGeneres Show would be a place of happiness – no one would ever raise their voice, and everyone would be treated with respect.
