"To Say That She's An Abusive Figure Is An Understatement": At ABC News,
Toxicity Thrives
Sources say Barbara Fedida, a powerful ABC News executive, has an extensive
history of insensitive comments. She's now been placed on administrative
leave while the network investigates.
.......
"Fedida said in regards to Kendis Gibson, who is Black and at the time was an
ABC News anchor, that ABC 'spends more on toilet paper than we ever would on
him,' a source who heard Fedida make the comment told HuffPost."

Here's the deal..
I really enjoyed the show & people I worked with at @ABC.
I look back at my time there fondly. I'm still surprised
and disappointed by the reported remarks made about me
by an exec there, if true.
My hope is, and always has been, for a more diverse industry.
