internally on the show i worked on, and i feel like it was important for mothers to hear that it is okay, you don t have to put yourself or yourr pregnancy in a position where you could possibly have youron health or your mental health pu in a position of toxicity, and i decided to leave after i became a mother, and that was ultimately the game changing moment for me. sean: meghan, you went as far as to say you felt like you had been slapped. you called the work environment toxic, direct, and purposeful hostility. and none of that looked fun to dme. and i can say, complete honesty, i ve had minor skirmishes here and there with a few on-air talent, but nothing like this at all, ever, not even close. this is like a cancerous environment. yeah, and it s all very personal, that s the thing, being a conservative woman in mainstream media is deeply threatening, being a woman who can hold her own on a show like that proved to be ultimately threatening, so it became more and more personal
