Trouble in Texas (Patreon)

Both the staff at this Dallas station and the viewers are crying foul about some personnel moves.

Back at the beginning of the month, FTVLive told you that KTVT, the CBS owned station in Dallas, kicked Anchor Nicole Baker to the curb.

Baker was part of the large CBS cuts that appeared to target a large percentage of people of color.

But, one station insider believes there is even more to it than that. The insider points to News Director Meagan Harris. "She had a personal vendetta against former anchor Nicole Baker, whom Harris decided to layoff as a “cost cutting measure,” but somehow kept the highest paid anchor in the building who is near retirement age anyway," said the insider.

But here is where it gets even more odd. Baker, who spent a dozen years at the station was sent to the unemployment line right around the first of the month. Now, just 20 something days later and KTVT has hired a new Anchor on the morning show.

Also, notice the first comment from a viewer.

"Why do we need a live desk position when we’re trying to cut costs and we have a morning show no one watches? I’ve been here years and that show has never performed well," said a KTVT staffer to FTVLive.

It is interesting that you got rid of one anchor is what was supposed to be a cost-cutting move, yet just a couple of weeks later, you hire a new person.

A number of staffers are crying foul and even the viewers have some questions.
