Armed with audio recordings, anchor Karla Amezola sues Angulo & Estrella TV for sexual harassment

September 28, 2016 by Veronica Villafañe

Karla Amezola

Estrella TV anchor Karla Amezola claims she was sexually harassed by the network’s VP of News Andrés Angulo for years, but after the inappropriate advances escalated, she decided to report him. And when the company allegedly ignored her, she hired an attorney to take her case to court.

Amezola was the first Estrella TV anchor to file a lawsuit against Angulo and Estrella TV parent company Liberman Broadcasting, Inc., but her case surfaced only after a lawsuit by another co-worker was made public.

The biggest difference in Amezola’s case is that she apparently has a series of audio recordings allegedly catching Angulo sexually propositioning her.

The complaint, filed on June 23 in Los Angeles Superior Court, cites a history of harassment, detailing instances of Angulo’s “shameless and disgusting acts” that “continued to escalate in levels of depravity.”

An LBI spokesman would not comment on the cases while there is pending litigation.

Adding Amezola’s lawsuit, now two Estrella TV anchors have taken legal action against LBI and Angulo, accusing the company of ignoring their concerns and well-being after reporting their supervisor’s allegedly inappropriate behavior to a human resources representative.

You can read the description of the alleged instances of sexual harassment, all the details about the complaint, why Amezola’s attorneys believe she has a strong case and why more victims of harassment will step forward in my Forbes story Sex, Lies And Audiotape: Another Anchor Files Sexual Harassment Suit Against Estrella TV And News VP.

    O, ya habia planes?
