Yesterday, FTVLive told you that longtime Miami Anchor/Reporter Neki Mohan had signed off from the station.  

But she certainly is not going away quietly. 

Mohan posted a Facebook video (above) in which she said that after working 16 years at the station as the weekend anchor, she had never been promoted and knew that the station had no intention of ever promoting her. 

"In TV when you get into this business, especially as a woman, that at some point you are going to become old, or irrelevant," Mohan said on the video. 

She says that she did not want to wait for that moment and decided to get out. 

At one point, Mohan co-anchored with Todd Tongen. Just over a year ago, Tongen was found dead in his home. He killed himself and Mohan said that work at WPLG played some part in his suicide. 

Mohan says that Tongen's death was one of the signs that showed her she needed to make a change. 

"I realized it was time to close this chapter and move onto the next," Mohan said in the video. 

Many viewers were not happy that Mohan felt she had no other choice but to leave the station.

Her post on Facebook has racked up over 1200 comments from viewers. 

According to insiders, one comment on Mohan's video came from WPLG General Manager Bert Medina:

It sounds like life at this one South Florida station is anything but paradise. 

stay tuned....
