Five female anchors at NY1 filed a lawsuit against the prominent New York station, alleging systematic age and gender discrimination
The lawsuit characterized NY1 management as having made recent programming decisions that strongly favored younger female and male talent at the expense of older, more experienced women.
The lawsuit outlined several areas in which it said NY1 favored younger female and male talent, while simultaneously casting aside more experienced women, including NY1's newly revamped daily schedule; fill-in anchoring practices; and promotional opportunities. The lawsuit specifically contrasted the treatment Torre has received at NY1, compared to Patrick Kiernan, the station's most recognizable personality.
