Jamie Stelter, co-anchor acted like ‘high school bullies,’ report claims

NY1’s Jamie Stelter reportedly made disparaging remarks about coworkers along with co-host Annika Pergament during Stelter’s rise in stature inside the volatile newsroom, a new report claims.

Stelter, who’s married to CNN host Brian Stelter, was portrayed by anonymous staffers as being a person some co-workers learned to avoid, according to a behind-the-scenes look at the city-centric network published in New York Magazine. The lengthy report focuses on Pat Kiernan and an age and gender discrimination lawsuit by five women against NY1’s parent company. But it outlines how Stelter and Pergament were lined up to become Kiernan’s co-hosts on “Mornings on 1.”
