Peer of fired ABC News weatherman Rob Marciano calls fall-out over alleged anger issues a ‘hit job’: report
NY Post
The complaints and comments swirling around ex-ABC News weatherman Rob Marciano‘s alleged anger issues seem like a “hit job,” according to a person who regularly worked with the meteorologist.
Marciano was fired from the network, where he worked for nearly a decade, on Tuesday over “alleged “anger management issues,” sources previously told The Post.
But sources who worked with the meteorologist told People Thursday that his ousting was “unexpected” and had nothing bad to say about their former colleague.
“Rob is always positive, hands-on and never anything but professional,” one source told the outlet. “People enjoy working with him and he’s not difficult to work with.”
He added that many people at ABC feel it was “unbelievable he was let go,” contrary to earlier reports where sources described his chronic temper issues and complaints from female coworkers who reportedly said he made them uncomfortable.
“The Rob Marciano being portrayed is not the Rob Marciano we know,” the same source told People. “Rob has always been nothing but professional. He is truly invested in his segments, cares a tremendous amount about his final work product.”
