"Derringer admitted to looking at pictures of skimpily dressed women while at work, stating, 'I'm not going to say they weren't wearing any clothing, but there were definitely women in very little clothing.'"
"Maureen Holloway, a former co-host, claimed she was a target of verbal attacks from Derringer, including a comment about breast reduction surgery that he acknowledged making on air."
"'That's what we did for a living,' Derringer said, referring to the show's culture of making 'stupid comments' in a male-dominated environment."
John Derringer acknowledged viewing images of scantily dressed women while working during a human rights tribunal. Jennifer Valentyne filed a complaint against him for verbal abuse and gender-based discrimination during her time on the show from 2017 to 2019. The tribunal hearing follows the show's hiatus in May 2022 amid an ethics review. Former co-host Maureen Holloway alleged verbal attacks from Derringer, including a comment about breast reduction surgery, which he confirmed was made on air despite knowing her medical history.
