Ellen DeGeneres on Monday opened the new season of her popular television talk show by apologizing to staff after reports of a toxic work environment on her set and saying changes had been made to start “a new chapter.” Over the summer three top producers on the “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” exited the show. As a result of their abrupt exit, Warner Brothers launched an internal investigation into complaints of bullying, racism and sexual misconduct against them.
