Correspondent files $2.4M suit against TV station

A federal jury awarded $2.4 million in damages to journalist Eugenica Obekwe after it was determined that PIX11 and Nexstar Media Group illegally retaliated against her for complaining about workplace racial discrimination. The case addressed issues of racial discrimination and retaliatory actions against her after 22 years of service, during which she was required to perform tasks beyond her role and faced discrimination in support and compensation compared to her colleagues. The verdict rejected PIX11’s reasons for terminating her contract, and she stated that she was retaliated against after speaking out about the discrimination. She received direct damages of approximately $1.14 million and punitive damages of $1.28 million, with the court emphasizing that the ruling reflects her struggle for justice and respect for her rights in the workplace.
