Well let's acknowledge something pretty obvious here. Making an official, public statement which asserts untrue things about a person is a crime called Defamy. If a talent is publicly defamed by an employer, they have very clear and straightforward legal recourse and can win an enormous payout in damages from the ensuing lawsuit, especially for accusations of a salacious or disreputable nature.
What I'm getting at here is that no sane company would make a public accusation they aren't prepared to prove in court, and you'll see this demonstrated in the coming days--if they are indeed lying then there would be no reason to not take them to court over the allegation, so the failure to litigate is itself telling.
