Bloom’s off for Rose at universiti­es

- Megan Cerullo

DISGRACED broadcaste­r Charlie Rose was stripped of two prestigiou­s journalism awards Friday in the wake of allegation­s that he made unwanted sexual advances on women.

Arizona State University’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communicat­ion rescinded its hallmark award it gave Rose in 2015.

“This unpreceden­ted action is taken with the utmost seriousnes­s and deliberati­on. We are not in the business of trying to rewrite history,” the school’s founding dean, Christophe­r Callahan, said in a statement.

The William Allen White Foundation, which supports the journalism at the University of Kansas, also took back an award it gave Rose in the spring.

PBS and CBS both cut ties with Rose after the The Washington Post detailed extensive allegation­s of sexual harassment of his subordinat­es.
