This photo really should be included on the page

Ellison, William Shatner and Lenoary Nimoy, I would put it in but the rights to it are at issue? It was posted by an auction house and then features on Boing Boing, should go up.

Network executive assault story

OK, so is there a RS of the story of Ellison running on top of a conference table at an exec who called him a 'hack' or 'flunkie' and which ended with the exec suing Irwin Allen because Ellison's collision with him caused a model of the USOS Seaview to fall off the wall and break his hip? Or is this just an unfounded legend? If true it ought to be in this article. Tfdavisatsnetnet (talk) 04:30, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sexual assault

I have heard that Ellison often and regularly committed sexual offences against underage boys and girls in the 70s. Is there anything documented about this? 2003:D5:D746:EB06:CC1A:FB14:DE26:9D18 (talk) 00:17, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
