Taryn Asher Sues Fox 2 Over Gender Claims | Detroit News

from Detroit News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Former Fox 2 anchor Taryn Asher is suing the station, alleging she was fired for speaking out about gender-based workplace inequality — specifically, being treated unfairly compared to her male co-anchor. The station counters with claims of “unprofessional behavior” and missed meetings, but Asher’s legal team is slamming their response as a cover-up, pointing to internal documents that confirm her complaints. They’re ready to fight in court over discrimination and retaliation — while also highlighting troubling inconsistencies: a male anchor kept his job after suspension, and the station manager was promoted despite an arrest for drunk driving. Asher refuses to return her work laptop, fearing it holds privileged info tied to her lawsuit — and this messy battle is far from over.
