NBCUniversal & Comcast Slapped With Age Discrimination Suit By Ex-E! SVP
Here’s a samples of age and wrongful termination claims against Comcast Corporation listed on http://deadline.com.
Over six-months after being pink slipped by E! Entertainment and NBCUniversal, ex-Talent Development and Casting SVP Blythe Asher today hit the media giant and its owner Comcast with a jury seeking age discrimination and wrongful termination suit.
“In 2016, for the first time during her employment with E! and after having battled cancer, Asher received a significantly lower performance evaluation,” the seven-claim complaint filed Thursday in L.A. Superior Court says of Asher’s experience at E!, where she had worked in a celeb interacting position since 2009. “The lower rating incontestably coincided with her cancer diagnosis,” the filing adds (read it here). “On February 9, 2016, Asher received notice from NBCU Media that her ‘services were no longer required.’”
NBC University has the word “Diversity” in their logo. This obviously applies to race, color of skin but grey hair is not welcome. What a crock!
