A sexual assault lawsuit brought by a former ABC “Good Morning America” producer against Michael Corn, now president of NewsNation, was dismissed by a New York judge who ruled the statute of limitations had run out.
Kirstyn Crawford, 32, a former producer for George Stephanopoulos, filed the lawsuit in August alleging Corn, as executive producer of ABC’s top-rated morning news show, sexually assaulted her in February 2015 while they were traveling together to Los Angeles to cover the Academy Awards.
The lawsuit also alleged Corn harassed her and created a “pervasive toxic work environment” at the network, according to the complaint.
