1 ormer KG W -TV sports director Steve Bartel-
stein has been slapped with a lawsuit accusing
him of sexually harassing and
stalking a male co-worker at
W A BC -7V , the N ew York
Daily News reported June 26.
T he 40-year-old, who
anchors news shows ftx the
Big Apple station at 5 a.m.
and noon, allegedly created a
hostile work environment ftx
writer and producer Roderick
McCullom by propositioning
him, then threatening his job
when the advances were rebuffed. Bartelstein vehe
mently denied the charges and vowed to go to trial.
“I’m shocked. 1 think thus is just ridiculous,”
he said. “Never in my life have I stalked him."
Ronald Fischetti, Bartelstein’s lawyer, said
his client was targeted because of his sexual ori
entation and promised to file a counterclaim
against McCullom for defamation. “He picked a
high-profile guy who he learned is gay.”
According to the lawsuit, filed June 24 in
M anhattan Supreme Court, Bartelstein directed
a laser pointer into M cCullom ’s West Village
apartment and lcx>ked into his window with
binoculars. (T h e men live on the same block.)
He also has been accused of using illegal dnigs at
work and showing off naked pictures o f himself
posted on America Online.
“1 have no A OL Web page at all,” Bartelstein
said. “If 1 had an A O L naked Web page, I think it
would have already been in the Daily N ew s.” J H
