It's obviously a coordinated attack. The powers that be want Ellen offstage. She doesn't want to go. As with Weinstein, Cosby and Matt Lauer, all this was known for years, but suddenly, multiple outlets start reporting it. Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel are removing themselves from the stage, rather than being destroyed.
Two things are sure: Ellen's usefulness is over and she's being cancelled.
My suspicion is that Ellen didn't want to go, and she's being notified, "You're going." Behind the scenes, she was likely given the option of putting out a "Wow, great run, but I'm tired now, and it's time to call it a show, and move on to other projects." announcement.
Does any of this have to do with behind the scenes legal stuff? We'll see.
