Two women who claimed to be victims of deceased Smiths Station Mayor F.L. "Bubba" Copeland told parts of their story during the 6 p.m. broadcast of Columbus, Ga.'s WTVM Monday evening news.
A second former employee of WTVM in Columbus, Georgia, is in a legal battle with the television station’s parent company, after being fired for not getting the COVID vaccine.
It was in the fall of 2021 when WTVM Sports anchor Dave Platta was heading up a busy team at the beginning of football season. But on Sept. 15, 2021, it all came to an end when Platta was fired for “not complying with company policy” by refusing to get the COVID shot.
