ABC News has reportedly terminated meteorologist Rob Marciano following years of alleged behavioral issues. Sources indicate that Marciano’s firing stems from complaints about his conduct, which created a toxic work environment.
While the specific details of the complaints remain unclear, this isn’t the first time Marciano’s behavior has raised concerns at ABC. He was reportedly barred from the “Good Morning America” Times Square studio in 2022 after an incident involving a female colleague. Although he continued to contribute remotely, his access was limited.
Marciano joined ABC News in 2014 and quickly became a familiar face on programs like “Good Morning America” and “World News Tonight.” Before ABC, he worked at CNN and served as a chief meteorologist for local stations.
ABC News has yet to release an official statement regarding Marciano’s departure, and Marciano himself has not publicly commented on the situation. The firing marks a significant shift in ABC’s weather team and raises questions about the network’s handling of workplace conduct. Observers suggest that ABC News took this measure to prioritize a respectful environment. Meanwhile, the search for a new meteorologist is underway.
