Article seems rather short on someone who has been in many top positions in top companies. Wikieditor101 ( talk) 02:16, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
This bio was filled with much extraneous, unverifiable, and non-biographical claims, some of which is now removed. It continues to be short on verifiable citations. This bio appears to have been written by the subject. Skywriter ( talk) 18:00, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
This looks like it was written for him to find a new job.-- CharlesDeMint ( talk) 22:17, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

On 21 August 2017, Levinsohn was named the publisher and CEO of the Los Angeles Times by tronc, replacing Davan Maharaj. [1] In January 2018, Levinsohn was put on leave after NPR reported that he had been named as a defendant in two sexual harassment lawsuits at two previous companies. An independent investigation by a global law firm found significant errors in the defamatory NPR report including that neither lawsuit personally accused Levinsohn of any wrongdoing, and that he had been dismissed from both lawsuits prior to each being settled. Levinsohn remained as a senior executive at both companies. Both cases were settled not as sexual harassment suits, but on other ground. The NPR report intentionally slanted the story for an attack on executives at Tronc to foster the unionization of the LA Times newsroom. The newsroom vote took place the day after the publication of the story [2] also accused Levinsohn of various misdeeds, all of which were found to be inaccurate, or completely false. A Business Insider report [3]confirmed the mistakes and Levinsohn was reinstated and named CEO of Tribune Interactive as the LA Times was sold [4] during his time away. https://nypost.com/2018/02/08/la-times-publisher-cleared-of-wrongdoing-given-tronc-post/

I noticed the article is edit locked, with an orphaned sexual harassment statement in the lede, with no additional info in the article. Since this leaves the reader wondering what the resolution was, perhaps the lede can be changed to say
Levinsohn has been a defendant in two separate sexual harassment lawsuits during his career, which were both settled by his employers.
Also, ANI requested that any edit warring editors discuss their concerns here on the talk page, so this is as good a place to start as any. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 20:11, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
Change happened in August 2020. See https://www.thedailybeast.com/sports-illustrated-publisher-mavens-new-ceo-ross-levinsohn-has-been-accused-of-sexual-harassment for instance.
My conflict of interest is that I work for Maven right now, so should not be editing the page myself. Vipul ( talk) 18:43, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
This seems to be one of the bigger reasons Levinsohn was fired from Sports Illustrated: Sports Illustrated Published Articles by Fake, AI-Generated Writers, < https://futurism.com/sports-illustrated-ai-generated-writers>.
According to the article:
The undisclosed AI content is a direct affront to the fabric of media ethics, in other words, not to mention a perfect recipe for eroding reader trust. And at the end of the day, it's just remarkably irresponsible behavior that we shouldn't see anywhere — let alone normalized by a high-visibility publisher.
