Over the last year, DeGeneres has been facing public fallout after multiple reports and accusations of toxicity and discrimination by current and former employees of her talk show.

DeGeneres responded to the allegations with a letter to her staff, saying she’s working to “correct the issues” going forward.

While DeGeneres didn’t get into any specific allegations or incidents in the letter, she stated that “we are taking steps, together, to correct the issues.”

“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,” wrote DeGeneres. “Clearly some didn’t. That will now change and I’m committed to ensuring this does not happen again.”
