My non-company work for bossie mostly now is in the areas of setting up breakfast/lunches/dinners/meetings with them personally or tracking them down

1)  How did the previous company obtain your email address?
        Bossie copies me on email replies to them and introduces me via email to take over
        Bossie also had me call former EA to follow-up on issues, who Bossie still makes requests from to track down people as well. "I don't have current email addresses for xyz (people who don't work at either of our companies), call old EA and have her find out what the current ones are. Then contact them to set up a dinner."
2)  Have you been asked by your boss to take on this additional work?
        I doubt they see it as additional work given it's been like this from the start
3)  Who is sending the email requests?  Another PA/Admin?
        Bossie forwards emails to me to handle
4)  Have you spoken to your boss and discussed the matter?
        I thought it was something that would go away completely once Bossie settled into new job (at our new to them company), but now I see bossie considers this as keeping in touch with their network of people and bossie likes to keep in the spotlight by maintaining lots of outside memberships, doing speeches/interviews, etc.

I'm not sure how to approach. Example: Bossie just did an interview the other day where it was suppose to be an interview of them personally - not co related, bossie (with cc to me) just days before got an email from div head stating any company related interviews must be approved and partner with PR. I sat there listening to bossie answering all kinds of questions about company knowing this is all going to be blamed on me if any quotes on the company are used. I will be blamed for not vetting enough information about the intervew if anything goes south. This I know. I've already found out from others my name was used for reasons of things bossie forgot to do or for showing up late to meetings when it was out of my control etc so I know it will be my fault for setting up the intervew, even though I did it at bossie's direction. Hopefully no quotes on the company will be used.
