Veteran ABC News weatherman Rob Marciano was fired Tuesday — a year after temporarily being sidelined for “anger management issues,” according to sources with knowledge.
Marciano, who appeared on “Good Morning America” and “World News Tonight” for more than a decade, made news last year amid complaints about his behavior over the years.
He was temporarily “banned” from “GMA’s” Time Square Studios after he made a colleague feel uncomfortable, Page Six reported in March 2023.
“He was found to have done something … that was improper, but he was punished for it, and they still haven’t let him return,” one insider told Page Six.
ABC News declined to comment on his firing Tuesday.
It’s unclear what exactly transpired between Marciano and his colleague, but another source said he had been dealing with some “anger management issues” while going through a divorce from his wife.
“He made people feel uncomfortable. There was a period where there were some issues, a number of alarming events,” the second source claimed.
“There were times when [Marciano] was very cranky and angry … unsavory behavior on his part. He was pulled off to deal with it and he’s been back.”
More recently, he was moved to ABC News’ “World News Tonight” and made appearances on “GMA.”
