During December 2018, four separate accusations of sexual misconduct were raised against Tyson, first reported by Patheos.[1][2] Thchiya Amet El Maat accused Tyson of drugging and raping her while both were graduate students at UT Austin in 1984.[3] Katelyn Allers, a professor at Bucknell University, asserted Tyson inappropriately touched her at a 2009 American Astronomical Society gathering.[4] [5] Ashley Watson, Tyson's assistant on Cosmos, described inappropriate sexual advances he made to her in 2018 which led her to resign from the position days later.[4] [5] A fourth anonymous woman asserted Tyson made inappropriate comments to her during a 2010 holiday party at the American Museum of Natural History.[1] Tyson denied El Maat's rape accusation, and corroborated basic facts around the situation of Allers and Watson's assertions, but claiming his actions were misinterpreted and apologized for any misunderstanding or offense.[6][7][8] Tyson asked for an investigation into the accusations, and The Museum of Natural History and the producers of Cosmos, Fox and National Geographic, announced investigations.[9]
Proposal #2:
In December 2018, Fox Entertainment and National Geographic announced investigations of alleged sexual misconduct by Tyson.[10][4][5]
Proposal #3:
In late 2018, Tyson was accused by four women of sexual misconduct.[1][11] No criminal charges have been filed, but FOX and National Geographic are investigating the claims.[12] Tyson released a statement which denies any wrongdoing.[13][14][15]
