Disney More details regarding the suspension of “Wheel of Fortune” announcer Jim Thornton are emerging: According to TMZ, the website has received photos from an American Airlines passenger who says they saw Thornton’s laptop opened on a “disturbing chat room” that appeared to be “images and texts that made it appear it was a chat room for pedophiles.”
TMZ included several photos that the passenger supposedly took of Thornton’s screens, which include comments and texts that suggest inappropriate behavior toward minors, but those photos have not been authenticated.
