An Emmy Award-winning CBS anchor claimed the Tiffany Network’s blind pursuit for diversity hires led to him getting canned because he is an aging, white, heterosexual male, according to blockbuster lawsuit.
Vaughn, who was an evening anchor for KCBS 5 pm and KCAL at 8 pm newscasts, was told by the general manager at CBS News Los Angeles he would not be working at the network in six months and that he was going to be replaced, according to the lawsuit. Vaughn shared personal pictures, videos and interviews that he conducted at the Twin Towers site with President George W. Bush, Sen. Hillary Clinton and Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
The alleged discrimination came at a time when the company was pushing to amp up diversity hiring, the suit said. “McMahon was publicly recognized for her work ‘to make the station group more diverse, on both sides of the camera and in leadership positions,'” the suit said, adding that the exec — who now holds the role of CBS News CEO, replaced him with Chauncy Glover, a 37-year-old African-American anchor out of ABC’s Houston bureau.
