Off the Air in Philly
/On Friday, FTVLive FIRST told you about abuse allegations against WCAU (Philly) Anchor Dray Clark.
In a Patron Only story, FTVLive showed you the allegations made by Aigner Cleveland, press secretary for Chester Mayor Thaddeus Kirkland against Clark.
A little more than an hour after we posted that story, WCAU posted a story about the allegations and the fact that Clark had been arrested twice in one week.
The Anchor was arrested and charged with 16 crimes including simple assault, making terroristic threats, harassment, and theft.
The station released this statement after Clark’s two arrests, “Station management learned today that Dray Clark was arrested in both domestic violence-related cases. We take these allegations very seriously. Effective immediately, Dray will be off the air pending the station’s investigation.”
It is now likely that Clark will be off the NBC O&O’s air for the November book as this plays out in court.
Then again, don’t be surprised if you never see him on WACU’s air again.
