TVGuide‘s Stephan Battaglio reports a lawsuit filed by a former NBC News producer has been dismissed. Marsha Bartel
claimed NBC fired her because she complained about the tactics used in
the To Catch a Predator series. The judge rejected her claims. NBC
maintains she was let go when the network made cuts in the Chicago
bureau.
Another lawsuit against the Dateline series is still pending. A woman filed a $110 million suit against NBCU after her brother, Bill Conradt,
committed suicide. Police, and a Dateline crew, were approaching his
Terrell, TX home when he killed himself. Conradt, a local prosecutor,
had been accused of chatting with an actor posing as a 13-year-old boy.
