The Sherri Shepherd Show has given executive producer Jawn Murray — who was once Sherri's rock, her prayer partner, and her closest confidant the chop — after a bombshell sexual harassment accusation made it impossible for the network to protect him any longer.

Sources tell #ShuterScoop the firing came after a young producer accused Murray of harassment, but insiders insist this wasn’t an isolated incident. “It wasn’t just one complaint,” a staffer says. “This was years of bad behavior piling up.”

Crew members describe a hostile work environment where Murray’s ego and temper ran the show. “He belittled staff, screamed in meetings, and even made Sherri’s dressing room feel like a battlefield,” one insider reveals. “He wanted to be the star, not Sherri.”

Adding fuel to the fire was Murray’s bizarre viral video earlier this year, where he ranted about race and bathroom habits — comments that horrified viewers and sent executives scrambling. “That was the moment people realized he wasn’t just difficult — he was a liability,” says a tipster.

For Sherri, it’s a devastating personal loss. “She’s crushed,” whispers a source. “This wasn’t her choice. It came from the very top.”

But some see a silver lining: “Now Sherri can shine without Jawn’s toxic shadow. Everyone is rooting for her to rise,” one loyal crewmember declares.
