Larry Conners files EEOC complaint against KMOV TV
Former KMOV-TV news anchor Larry Conners is asking the Missouri Commission on Human Rights and the EEOC to look into his firing. Conners has filed formal discrimination complaints against his bosses at the CBS affiliate.
Conners alleges that he was treated differently after a 2010 complaint about discrepancies in pay between himself and then co-anchor Vickie Newton. Conners says his on-air assignments were reduced and he was offered only a 16 month contract, while less experienced employees were given prime assignments and three year contracts.
Conners says station management also directed him to read an inaccurate statement on air regarding his recent problems with the IRS. His Facebook comments about those problems led to his eventual dismissal from KMOV.
