Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres has found herself in hot water today after a report came out claiming that staffers on her popular daytime talk show were left in the dark for weeks about pay amid the coronavirus shutdown.

Two sources told Variety that the more than 30 employees on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” were not given any written communications about things like their working hours or pay for over a month after the show shut down production in March because of COVID-19. The workers were also reportedly given no information about where they could go for inquiries about their mental and physical health.

One of the insiders went on to say that while higher-ups at the show would occasionally answer the phone, they would keep their cards close to their chests and reveal very little about what was going on. Staffers on the show were then furious when an outside, non-union tech company was brought in to help DeGeneres tape her daily talk show remotely from her California mansion.

It wasn’t until last week that the show’s bosses finally got in touch with crew members, but the news was anything but good. Staffers were informed that they should prepare themselves for a 60% reduction in pay, even as the show continues to air.

Out of the entire 30+ staff, only four are currently working on the version that is being taped out of DeGeneres’ home. The sources who spoke to Variety pointed out that the way DeGeneres has treated her staff throughout this crisis is very inconsistent with the daily message she offers her audience, which is “be kind.” The treatment of the crew has also been in stark contrast to what DeGeneres said during her first monologue from home.

“I wanted to start doing my new show as soon as possible because it’s really for people who are stuck at home. Especially my staff and crew, I love them, I miss them and the best thing I can do to support them is to keep the show on the air, so here we are,” DeGeneres said.

A spokesperson for Warner Bros. Television responded to this report by saying that crew members on the show have been paid consistently, albeit at reduced hours.

“Our executive producers and Telepictures are committed to taking care of our staff and crew and have made decisions first and foremost with them in mind,” the spokesperson added.

DeGeneres herself has yet to offer a comment on the situation.
