DESPERATE ELLEN SWINGS THE AX!

Fires trio as show teeters on brink of cancelation

- 

FRENZIED talk queen Ellen DeGeneres has ousted three top producers from her gabfest in a last-ditch bid to keep her job after being rattled to the bone by backstage scandals, sources dish.

GLOBE has learned executive producers Ed Glavin and Kevin Leman, and co-executive producer Jonathan Norman, were given the heaveho after former staffers charged they’d experienced racism, bullying and other questionable behavior on the “toxic” set of the megabucks spinning show.

Though Ellen, 62, denies any wrongdoing, she still apologized to her staff, and WarnerMedia — the show’s parent company — conducted an investigation.
