It is a month old, but interesting.

Former NBC "Today" show host Matt Lauer is one of the latest -- and most prominent -- men in media to be toppled by allegations of sexual misconduct.

The industry reckoning began more than a year ago, when former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson claimed in a lawsuit that she was fired for refusing sexual advances from network head Roger Ailes. He left the network about two weeks later.

Since then, the names of have piled up: Bill O'Reilly, Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, Louis C.K., Mark Halperin and Michael Oreskes, among others.

More than a dozen men have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or assault in the past year. Here are some of the most prominent men in media and entertainment who have faced such accusations.

1. Thank you for the link. It is going to be...

looking at the bigger picture, a difficult and absolutely essential process to finally combat and change the centuries old societal acceptance of the mistreatment and “entitled” disrespect and abuse of females and the vulnerable by those men in some form of power; males who by misguided nature/nurture or just being complete pieces of crap have done these things.

There are men whom I professionally respected on that list and it momentarily saddened me...and some that came as no surprise and I gladly applauded.

The women who have come forward, found their strength and courage to help change the world for all of us. They are special warriors.

It’s up to all of us. All genders must acknowledge the enormous impact these actions and words have had and embrace the immediate need for behavioral change. Now and for our future generations. Accountability.

2. At least Carlson bothered with a lawsuit.

Most just rely on public pressure and word of mouth to get 'justice'.
