Vickie Newton, who was with KMBC and WDAF in Kansas City during her TV career, now says she left her anchor position with KMOV in St. Louis earlier this year in part to get away from a cyberstalker, according to a story in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Newton made the startling announcement in her own online magazine “TheVillageCelebration” that she left KMOV after 10 years in August after being cyberstalked.

Newton, 46, wrote that she has been cyberstalked for the past five years, and that she had hoped moving back to her home state of Arkansas would end the abuse. However, she claims the harassment has intensified.

“I don’t know who is stalking me and I don’t know what the end game is,” Newton says in the article. “Recently, some of the postings have included key words that describe rooms in my home, family members’ names are included and so the level of the threat is more aggressive.”

TheVillageCelebration is an online magazine “dedicated to reporting stories that highlight the rich tradition of triumph, perseverance, and faith of African-Americans.”

Newton received her Master’s Degree in Journalism from the University of Detroit. She is single after being married to her college sweetheart for eight years and then briefly again in 2009 to health-care exec Dwayne Butler for less than a year.
