It appears that these were the offensive comments:
“Why haven’t I fallen in love with you yet?” Matthews asked Bassett before one episode.
Another time, Matthews told her makeup artist, “Make sure you wipe this off her face after the show. We don’t make her up so some guy at a bar can look at her like this.”
What kind of a world do we live in where a woman - a not-terribly-attractive woman, to be honest - can publicly complain about such innocuous comments? Could she not privately say something to Matthews - at which point he would be satisfactorily embarrassed, and the comments would have stopped?
They were probably looking for an excuse to move on to someone else in that time slot anyway, but if this is an example of how Modern Women must be treated, I'm glad I'm not long for this world.
