CNN Pulls Asia Argento-Featured Episodes of Parts Unknown Over Sexual Misconduct Claims

CNN has pulled episodes of Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown that featured Asia Argento due to the sexual misconduct claims against her. CNN has confirmed, per Buzzfeed, that three episodes in which Argento appears have been removed from CNN Go due to the allegations by Jimmy Bennett that Argento got him drunk and sexually assaulted him when he was seventeen.

Argento was Bourdain’s girlfriend up until his recent passing. She appears on screen in two episodes and directed one. The two met while filming the first of those episodes, “Rome,” which aired in 2016.

A rep for CNN told the site, “In light of the recent news reports about Asia Argento, CNN will discontinue airing past episodes of Parts Unknown that included her, until further notice.”
