“I deeply regret that I have made mistakes in my personal life that have caused pain and embarrassment to the people I love the most,” Tsujihara said in an emailed memo to staff.
“I also deeply regret that these personal actions have caused embarrassment to the company and to all of you. I realized some time ago you are right to expect more from me and I set a course to do better. That journey continues.”
WarnerMedia had previously looked into allegations of inappropriate behavior by Tsujihara and did not turn up anything amiss about Kirk’s casting, the company said Wednesday. Such investigations are typical following accusations of misconduct. But some experts have questioned the thoroughness of such probes.
