White Plains, New York – Former ABC News meteorologist Rob Marciano was spotted outside his Westchester home amidst reports of his recent firing from the network due to alleged anger management issues and conflicts with colleagues. The meteorologist, dressed casually, avoided making any comments as he headed into his SUV.
Sources indicated that Marciano’s contentious relationship with “Good Morning America” meteorologist Ginger Zee ultimately led to his termination from ABC News. The final incident that led to his dismissal was a reported tirade directed towards a show producer, witnessed by several staff members.
Female staffers at “GMA” also voiced discomfort with Marciano’s behavior, citing instances where he openly shared details about his divorce, which was finalized the previous year. Marciano’s behavior had previously prompted management to bar him from the “GMA” studios in Times Square after colleagues complained.
Despite being hired by “GMA” in 2014 to replace Zee as the weekend weatherman, Marciano’s clashes with Zee were kept under wraps for years by management. This tension escalated over time, with sources describing Marciano’s “hot temper” and Zee’s alleged tendency to be “nasty.”
The feud between Marciano and Zee, both prominent figures in the industry, highlights the challenges of workplace dynamics and maintaining professionalism in high-profile environments. While ABC News declined to comment on the situation, the public scrutiny of Marciano’s behavior underscores the importance of interpersonal relationships in the workplace and the impact it can have on one’s career.
