The anchorperson had tweeted in 2009, “I made one of my employees cry hysterically look like a baby on the today’s show. honestly, it felt good.”
As indicated by a source cited by Page Six, the tweet was actually made regarding Ellen’s employee Jeannie Klisiewicz, whom the host surprised with a cruise on air.
Ellen had recruited Klisiewicz in 2008 after she wrote to the show requesting employment.
Following a time of working, Ellen wanted to “do something extraordinary for her” as a result of her positive attitude and because she had participated in each contest and always lost.
The emotional segment broadcast on EllenTube three years back.
The video came after Ellen made an apology over inappropriate behaviour and toxicity claims during the ouster of three producers.
On a Zoom call Monday, she said that she did not understand where the rumored no-eye to eye contact rule started and that she was getting to work to interact more together with her staff.
