In February 2022, around a dozen current and former Dr. Phil employees accused McGraw of mistreating people involved with his show. [3] Speaking anonymously with Buzzfeed News, these people claimed that they experienced "verbal abuse in a workplace that fosters fear, intimidation, and racism." [4] Seven current employees also claimed the show's guests are often brought onto the show when they’re already in a vulnerable state, and are manipulated and treated unethically. [4] Attorneys for McGraw and his co-producer Carla Pennington categorically denied every allegation made. [4] However, a spokesperson for ViacomCBS told Variety, among other things, that "creating safe and inclusive working environments is a top priority" and that “We encourage any employee who believes that they or others within the company have been treated unfairly to report it without a fear of retaliation. We take seriously all such reports.” [5] 2601:447:4000:220:5EB:69E8:5A8B:EAF7 ( talk) 23:01, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Per
WP:LEAD, The lead should stand on its own as a concise overview of the article's topic. It should identify the topic, establish context, explain why the topic is notable, and summarize the most important points, including any prominent controversies
.
I'm not going to, but I recommend someone take a try at writing an appropriate bit about his controversies for the lead. I'd argue the controversies receive such extensive coverage that them not appearing in the lead is strange. 104.232.119.107 ( talk) 21:55, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
