NBC News has defended the two top producers of Megyn Kelly against claims of bullying behavior from a staff member, according to Variety. The temporary staffer who made the complaints said that the producers, Jackie Levin and Christine Cataldi, used particularly tough language with other staff members. A statement released by NBC News backed Levin and Cataldi unequivocally: “Jackie and Christine are being attacked unfairly. They are both excellent and experienced producers, and have the full support of everyone here.” The complaints arrived while NBC is reviewing its process for addressing workplace mistreatment in the wake of the Matt Lauer scandal. The temporary staffer who made the complaint has since been fired.
