Seven claims former Sunrise producer exhibited “aggressive, inappropriate and misogynistic behaviour”
Former Sunrise producer Matthew McGrane is suing Seven
Seven has denied a former Sunrise producer’s legal claim that his role was reduced and promotions blocked after an accident, saying he often acted aggressively and left young female colleagues in tears.
Matthew McGrane, the supervisor producer at Sunrise, initially filed a Fair Work claim, after seriously injuring himself while travelling home from Seven’s studios in Sydney in 2023.
McGrane uses a wheelchair and claims the injury occurred while travelling between the studios and his home, during a shift. He alleged that his employers allowed him to split his workday between home and the office, in order to catch wheelchair-accessible buses before they ended for the night.
