sexual harassment at the weather channel

Asian Behaving Badly... weather man edition. It's not all smiles and sunshine over at the Weather Channel. According to The Smoking Gun, a former anchor, Hillary Andrews, has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against her colleague, Bob Stokes: Weather Channel In Sex Storm.

Andrews claims Stokes repeatedly tormented her with crude, sexual come-ons, including once allegedly asking her, "Will you lick my swizzle stick?" She also claims Stokes followed her into the women's dressing room, quizzed her about her sexual relationships, and pleaded with her to say she found him attractive. The guy sounds like a real winner.

Andrews took legal action against The Weather Channel, claiming it retaliated against her after she complained and then refused to take action against Stokes. Both since have been fired.
