What, no sideways pay?

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

What, no sideways pay?

"Front pay and back pay," that's what my perceived Lesbian client wants.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A Kanawha County woman is suing a Charleston youth center, alleging that board members there fired her because they thought she was a lesbian after looking at her Facebook profile.

In a lawsuit filed earlier this week in Kanawha Circuit Court, Jessica A. Hudson says the Bob Burdette Center's board held an emergency meeting about her "perceived sexual orientation" after they had offered her a job as executive director of the center.

The lawsuit seeks unspecified punitive damages, compensatory damages, "front pay and back pay," and an order barring the center from discriminating.
