WRAL-TV lead anchor David Crabtree surprised viewers Friday night with a personal announcement delivered at the end of the station’s 6 p.m. newscast.
Crabtree announced that he had lost his position as a member of the clergy in the Episcopal Church because of an inappropriate relationship that violated church rules.
Crabtree’s statement was also posted online on the WRAL website:
“You may know that I am a member of the clergy in the Episcopal Church. On Friday, the church announced I have lost that position because I violated church rules.
“Years ago, I had a consensual relationship with a woman ... A relationship the church deemed inappropriate.
“I accept the decision. My actions were unacceptable. I apologize.
“My faith remains strong. I seek God’s forgiveness. I hope that, in time, I might earn yours.”
