Because it's 2021 the new Jeopardy! host is having his entire past dug up.

Man, what a healthy and perfectly functional society we have built.

One of the lawsuits alleged that Richards had a hostile reaction when one of the models on the game show, Brandi Cochran, became pregnant.
Cochran sued in 2010. The case was eventually settled in 2016.
According to the lawsuit, when "Cochran revealed that she was carrying twins," Richards "put his face in his hands. He asked her twice, in an annoyed tone, 'Twins? Are you serious? ... You're serious?' After that, Cochran was booked to work less often and was repeatedly taken out of acts she would have appeared in before."
I vaguely remember this.

Richards was one of the best guest hosts they had.

How dare a white male express consternation that the employee/entertainer he counted decides to leave and be pregnant.

They really should just hire Will Ferrel to host, but make him do the Trebek bit.

There's a big missed opportunity on the guest hosts. I guess the show takes itself a little too seriously for that.

Their audience certainly does.

He's the new host anyway.
Richards, an American television producer, will host the long-running daily syndicated program while Bialik will host primetime and spinoff series.
Do those happen very often? Is that a new thing they are going to try for?

It happened with Weakest Link and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

Meh, he seemed like a dick.

I'm rooting for Levar Burton.

I was wondering why Ken Jennings hadn't been considered more seriously: old tweets
