    The reality is she decided to call it quits because (1) her ratings have crashed and (2) her "nice girl" persona has been damaged over allegations of staff mistreatment.
  • @BT-ch9gf
    I wish this was an Oprah interview. " Were you being unkind..or are you unkind?"
  • @cecillec2331
    "Was it a hard decision to make?" Actually, it was decided for her. She could continue, but no one would be watching her.
  • @sehkra13
    "Shouldn't you know what was going on in the background of your own show?" asks Matt Lauers' co host
  • @whatever8918
    the lesson she didn't learn is humility. hard to watch
  • She never took responsibility on everything. Listen to her answers, she loves herself very much. She’s egoistic.
  • 250 employees, but the allegations were agains the guys at the top who were in touch with her if not on daily most likely on a weekly basis. Why deny your own responsibility and pretend that she was clueless! The worst approach, that guarantees she will not recover
  • @Slycoomer56
    I like how she almost fought the interviewer over a number 😆😂
  • @hfs212000
    i feel like this show ended 3yrs ago
  • I feel like these comments some people didn’t really listen to what she’s saying
  • @lisamarie9159
    Honestly, I've been dealing with harassment for 5 years. I can't believe how people can spin the truth. Glad I watched this.
  • @obi4842
    She didn't know that she was being a mean person, typically that's what narcissistic person thinks.
  • I'm sure Ellen is making all her choices for the good of herself and mankind.
  • My heart is so broken that she's Ending Her Show. My Whole life i wanted to be able to come on the show. But now its too late.. This sucks. But I hope she has more good things coming towards her.
  • @MeteoricMarlin
    She was never gonna recover from all the allegations. The show was never gonna be the same now that everyone knows what was going on behind the scenes.
  • Perfect illustration of ’treat people the way you want to be treated’. Imagine if she had treated her staff the way she treated many of her celebrities. This would have never happened.
