Ashley Watson, whose sexual misconduct allegations prompted investigations by producers, Fox and Nat Geographic Channel, responded to Tyson's contentious interview with The Daily Beast last week. She said investigators never really probed her allegations. “I never expected the ‘investigation’ to vindicate me from being called an attention hungry liar who had ‘asked for it’—Cosmos was a multi-million dollar production and I was a lowly local assistant who made $800 a week," she tells The Daily Beast. "I always knew ‘the show would go on,’ and that ‘due process’ in this case would be a steaming pile of bullsh*t.”
