NBC News is facing accusations of victim-shaming and intimidation as it scrambles to protect its legendary anchor Tom Brokaw, who has been accused of sexual misconduct by three different women.

On Tuesday, Variety reported that NBC News’ powerful standards and practices department, which sets editorial guidelines, mandated that any reports on the Brokaw accusations include that more than 100 current and former NBC News female staffers had signed a letter of support for the embattled newsman.

The New York Post reported Monday night that many women at NBC News had felt intimidated into signing the letter.
