After just one season on the reality competition series, Union was let go after she reportedly made a complaint about the show's 'toxic culture'
, "It's unfortunate that @nbc the same network that protected disgusting men like Matt Lauer and punished women for speaking out or not putting up with it…has not changed their practices or culture." She added that Union's "commitment to speaking up to injustice takes courage."
Pompeo also wrote that "workplace cultures will continue to be toxic until there is unity and solidarity among all women. If you go for self in these moments you undermine the work we are out here trying to do. Obviously this network feels like they can operate like this and it’s okay." Though Union has not explicitly addressed the reports, her husband, retired NBA shooting guard Dwyane Wade, confirmed that her parting from“When i got the news that my wife was being fired — my first question was obviously why!? I am still waiting on a good answer to that question,” he wrote in one post, before continuing: “As proud as I [was] of her being selected as a judge on #AGT — I am even more proud of her [for] standing up for what she stands for and that’s US.
Wade’s comments prompted a surge in dialogue about Union’s exit on Twitter and the hashtag #BoycottAGT.
