An ABC News staffer is reportedly accusing the network of retaliating against her after she alleged she was sexually assaulted by the top producer of Good Morning America.

GMA producer Kirstyn Crawford last month filed a lawsuit alleging the show's former senior executive producer, Michael Corn, assaulted her in 2015. In an amended version of her lawsuit filed Wednesday, she also alleges the network retaliated against her after she filed a complaint about the incident, according to The Wall Street Journal.
