Three former on-air personalities for Nashville TV station WSMV have filed an age discrimination lawsuit against their former employer, The Tennessean reports. Reporter Dennis Ferrier, anchor Jennifer Johnson and meteorologist Nancy Van Camp claim that they were victims of harassment and ridicule prior to their termination from the station. The lawsuit also alleges that longtime anchor Demetria Kalodimos, who is not a plaintiff, was subject to “public berating,” “ridicule” and other “acts of age-based discrimination and hostility.” WSMV’s parent company, Meredith Corporation, denied the allegations.
