AUSTIN, Minn. – A southeast Minnesota TV station has sparked a trending Facebook post after sticking up for a pregnant employee.

KAAL in Austin says meteorologist Cindy Morgan has received "nasty" comments regarding her appearance.

In her own Facebook post, Morgan says she's been told that she looks like she's ready to tip over, that she shows too much of her belly and her choice in clothes is distasteful and disrespectful.

"I'm not the only female meteorologist who's gotten terrible comments while pregnant," Morgan wrote.

She ended her post with #embracethebump.
