29 Oct Rane’s Departure from WPGC Outlined in Second Lawsuit
Longtime WPGC host DJ Rane vanished from the airwaves three months ago without a farewell — but a pair of lawsuits shed light on her messy falling-out with the radio station.
In May, the perky voice known in real life as Ranelle Sykes filed a gender-discrimination suit against her bosses claiming that her on-air partner of a decade, Keith “DJ Flexx” Clagon, was earning “significantly more” than her. (Twice as much, she told City Paper last month; station execs denied it.)
Several weeks later, she was off the air. Why?
In a second suit filed in Prince George’s County Circuit Court last week, Sykes claims WPGC “terminated” her after she filed another internal complaint in July — and that this dismissal constituted illegal retaliation.
