Podcast host Elizabeth Day says she removed the recent 'How to Fail' interview with Baldoni while Lively's 'distressing allegations' are investigated, pledging to stand up against 'every form of abuse'.
Lively's legal complaint against Baldoni accuses him of 'disturbing' and 'unprofessional' behavior on set, as well as launching a 'retaliatory smear campaign' - leading to Baldoni's talent agency dropping him and his podcast co-host quitting.
