Lea Thompson agreed with Brad Garrett's claim that it was "common knowledge" that Ellen DeGeneres mistreated people. Garrett said on Twitter Friday that the reportedly toxic work environment at "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" "comes from the top."
He added that it's "common knowledge" that the host treated people "horribly."
The "Back to the Future" actress responded to Garrett's comment and wrote, "True story. It is."
Lea Thompson seconded Brad Garrett's claim that it was "common knowledge" that Ellen DeGeneres mistreated people on her show.
Amid negative reports containing accounts from current and former employees describing a toxic work environment on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," the talk-show host penned a letter to staffers personally apologizing to anyone who felt they weren't treated with respect and saying she hadn't been able to closely manage the show as it grew in recent years.
On Friday, the "Everybody Love Raymond" actor, who's appeared on the "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" multiple times, tweeted a link to Variety's article about her letter and called out the talk-show host for her role in the allegations.
"Sorry but it comes from the top @TheEllenShow Know more than one who were treated horribly by her. Common knowledge," he wrote.
