I'm confused, was his death related to the lawsuit involving his co-anchor? Why was that thrown in there so randomly?
 
@eighteen :
 
Because that's what today's SHADY MEDIA does....They're pretty much "heartless" and "anything-for-clicks" now...

Family of beloved ABC13 Houston anchor Chauncy Glover confirms his passing: 'Unimaginable loss' Former ABC13 anchor Chauncy Glover has died, TV station KCAL-CBS reported Tuesday. Glover moved from Houston to Los Angeles in September 2023 to join the staion as a news anchor. His family issued a statement Tuesday night: "We, Sherry and Robert Glover, along with Chauncy's beloved family, are devastated by the unimaginable loss of our beloved Chauncy. He was more than a son and brother - he was a beacon of light in our lives and a true hero to his community." A native of Athens, Alabama, he was a three-time Emmy Award winning journalist. Prior to his 8-year career with ABC13 in Houston, he previously worked at WDIV in Detroit for three years and Jacksonville, Fla. for two years. His first TV job was as a reporter in Columbus, Ga. after receiving a degree in journalism from Troy University in Alabama. Over the summer, Glover became the subject of a lawsuit filed by a former KCAL anchor, Jeff Vaughn. According to Variety, an entertainment trade publication, the suit alleges that Vaughn was "let go because he's an older, white heterosexual man." Vaughn, who was 58 at the time the "anti-white discrimination" suit was filed against KCAL, is represented by America First Legal, a conservation group that takes aim at diversity, equity and inclusion programs. The suit further alleges that Glover, 39, had "minimal" experience. Glover founded the Chauncy Glover Project, a yearlong mentoring and college-preparatory program for Black and Hispanic young men, back in 2014. The students participate in tutoring, team-building activities and leadership training that culminates with a black-tie gala in which they perform an original play written by Glover and based on the boy's lives. "They need reinforcement as to how great they are because a lot of them have been through tough times," Glover told Chronicle columnist Joy Sewing in 2018. "When you're homeless and don't have what other kids have, you don't think you are great. Or when you are trying to find out who you are, people can isolate you and think you are less than. This entire group needed to be reminded that they are kings." In January 2023, he took four months of medical leave before returning to the anchor seat at ABC13. "Chauncy's compassion and dedication to helping others, especially through the Chauncy Glover Project, changed countless lives and inspired so many young men to pursue their dreams," his family's statement reads. "His talent, warmth, and vision left an imprint on everyone who knew him, and the world is dimmer without him. While we grieve this profound loss, we are comforted by the outpouring of love and memories shared by those who knew Chauncy as the passionate, gifted soul he was. We kindly ask for privacy as we mourn and honor his incredible legacy. He was taken from us far too soon, but his impact will be felt forever." Glover sang at the funeral of Rosa Parks in 2005. He was an active member of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. www.houstonchronicle .com/lifestyle/artic le/chauncy-glover-de ath-19890877.ph

What a tragic loss and I would think if it was something mentioned above they would say something. He never seemed like he was hiding something. Since he took a lengthy med leave before going back to work, he may have had a rapid disease or something. He was a great Anchor and always was very heartfelt. RIP Chauncy.

I'm thinking suicide and that would make it sadder!
 
@West-Tex : That is what I was thinking also. And it would make it so much more tragic.

this makes no sense - Jeff Vaughn. According to Variety, an entertainment trade publication, the suit alleges that Vaughn was "let go because he's an older, white heterosexual man."

I remember the day he announced he was leaving Channel 13. Myra Moreno choked up and shed a few tears. It was sweet & heart-warming.
I was shocked when I read he died. Curiosity regarding his cause of death is bothersome.
