Sinclair Station Does Story on Sick Employee

Some people inside Sinclair’s WPEC (West Palm Beach) are a bit disturbed about a story the station did on one of their own.

Insiders say that Chief Meteorologist Erin Christiansen just came back from a trip to Aruba and was not feeling well.

Word is that she was concerned about the coronavirus and informed management that she wanted to get tested.

Insiders say that management decided that Christiansen would be the subject of a story about trying to get a coronavirus test.

The station showed her calling the Florida hotline and inquiring about the test while she was coughing in a station conference room.

A photog was shooting video as she was calling and coughing.

Needless to say, other employees were a bit concerned that Christiansen, who possibly had the virus was sticking around the station, coughing and being the subject of the story.

You can watch the station’s story here and understand why some employees think that management might have put the story before the employees’ health.
