WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) -- Only on 9 tonight, an international sex scandal that played out right here in Washington.
It involves Phoenix Television, one of the world's largest and most popular Chinese broadcasting companies and its former Washington Bureau Chief.
According to the complaint in a federal lawsuit, Zhengzhu Liu allegedly groped and propositioned numerous female interns and reporters.
In our video, we agreed to conceal the identities of the alleged victims in this case. They fear not only for their current jobs, but for their family members in China. What's alleged is a pattern of sexual assault and harassment, and a company that appears to have taken years to stop it.
There is disturbing video shot on an iphone by a female reporter captures the alleged advances of Liu, the former Washington Bureau Chief of Phoenix Television.
Speaking in Mandarin, the young reporter says "Let me leave first."
Liu responds, "Let me hug you. I like you so much. Oh."
The reporter struggles throughout the video.
Liu says, "Don't move. Don't move. Oh, I like you so much."
The reporter tells him, "I'm leaving right now. I really need to go.& quot;
Liu responds, "Let me have a look. Let me 'stick' you."
The reporter makes her escape saying, "I really need to go now."
One victim told us, "Mr. Liu, in fact, is a monster."
According to the allegations in this federal lawsuit, Liu repeatedly preyed on vulnerable young women in the D.C. and New York bureaus of Phoenix Television-interns, reporters and even, job candidates.
"He threw his arms around me, and then he touched my butt, and then he tried to kiss me on the lips, but I ducked. And so he kissed my neck," said one accuser.
"He suddenly hugged me very tightly," said another.
A third woman told us, "I tried to push him away but he would like try to hug harder."
Their stories are strikingly similar.
"He did all that by force," the first woman said. "He was saying things like why are you so beautiful? And, you have very beautiful eyes."
The second accuser told us, independently, "He was saying you have beautiful eyes."
And the third said, "He always says that I am pretty and I know how to make myself very presentable."
Liu allegedly invited them to luxury hotel rooms and even to Atlantic City to discuss job performance and career opportunities, according to the complaint.
"Mr. Liu, with one hand on my shoulder, and used the other hand to touch my breast," a fourth accuser said.
She says he even forced his way into her apartment after regularly talking at the office about sex acts and rape.
"I heard that he unzipped his pants. And I was very scared," she said.
"He used his power and position to get women. And very often in a very brutal way," said a male colleague.
Another male colleague said, "She was crying in front of me. When I saw the tears, I decided to help." He added, "I never feel regret. If I chose again, I would choose to support this female victim again."
The men who stood up for their female colleagues were fired.
We asked, "Pure retaliation?"
"Nothing but that," he responded.
The federal complaint indicates Phoenix Television knew about Liu's predatory behavior for as long as eight years, but did nothing until late last year, when Liu was removed.
We visited Liu's home in suburban Washington to attempt to get a comment from him. A Mercedes was parked in the driveway, but no one answered the door.
One day later, Liu called us from China and said we'd frightened his adult children and neighbors by stopping by. Asked about the allegation, he said, "Not true. I'm more than 60 years old. I had nothing to do with this. I have nothing to say."
One of the men fired for standing up for a female colleague said, " Especially in this country, everyone should have a freedom to work without being sexually harassed. Everyone should have a freedom to work without retaliation."
The new D.C. bureau chief at Phoenix TV declined to answer our questions as well, and called security.
According to the complaint, he is the man who fired the male employees who stood up for the women who were allegedly victimized.
Phoenix Television emailed us a statement saying the lawsuit is full of inaccuracies and false statements about the company.
So far, ten women have come forward with allegations of sexual harassment and assault.

五名凤凰卫视的离职与现职员工上月底对凤凰卫视美洲台提起诉讼,因该公司明知其美洲台前总编辑刘正铸涉嫌性骚扰且侵犯女职员,却持续雇用刘正铸,导致多名女实习生和记者受害。外交政策八日以「北京当局的新闻审查让性攻击丑闻从大陆网路消失」为题,提到大陆当局如何封锁凤凰挨告的新闻,探讨凤凰与大陆当局的关系。
华府的WUSA9电视台日前播出刘正铸涉嫌骚扰女员工的新闻,除了采访多位曾遭骚扰的当事人,还播出刘正铸去年试图性侵害一名女员工时,遭当事人录下的画面。画面中刘正铸对女员工说,「让我抱你,我很喜欢你,不要动、不要动,让我X你」等
话;女员工则拼命挣扎,最后说了一句「我现在真的得走了」后,立刻夺门而出。
文章提到,这则新闻播出后,很快就被转贴到大陆的土豆网、优酷等网站,然而,这段影片很快就被移除,再次点选只出现「无效的节目ID」画面。此外,大陆官方媒体新华社原本转载法新社一则相关报导,不久也被删除。
文章也质疑,有关凤凰的负面新闻遭到大陆封锁,大陆媒体只刊登凤凰卫视发出的一则新闻稿,内容提到美国联邦政府平权工作委员会(EEOC)不受理员工提出的诉状。至于为何一间私人的媒体公司可以获得中方新闻审查机构的保护,则是个引人注意的问题。
文章指出,凤凰卫视是少数能在大陆营运的电视台之一,外界很少提及凤凰与中国共产党的关系。凤凰卫视美洲台台长吴晓镛的父亲,是中共国务院前副总理吴学谦;至于凤凰卫视行政总裁刘长乐,则具有大陆全国政协常委身分。中方帮凤凰审查新闻的做法,尽管无法证明和该台的政治影响力有关,却是值得探讨的问题。
