Oprah’s OWN sued for discrimination

By HollywoodReporter.com

A former employee at Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network is suing the company for creating “a hostile work environment” because she suffers from Multiple Sclerosis.

Catherine Dunn began working as an assistant in August 2008, and according to TMZ, was forced to take stress leave and a leave of absence when “her MS symptoms were exacerbated because of the workplace stress.”

Dunn’s lawsuit states that her position was filled by a “non-disabled and younger employee” while she was on leave, and she is suing for wrongful termination. Dunn seeks unspecified damages.

    You’re show today on sexual abuse of minors was grossly out of line. In no way did several priest’s gang rape the minors seen on your show. This is an out right lie and you need to apologize.

    All anyone has to do is look at the letters “OWN” of Oprah’s new network to reveal this woman’s “true agenda”. She wants to “own everything”. This is a ruthless person who disguises herself as a humanitarian, when she’s one of the most egotistical, ambituous, run over your own mother to enhance her own career on the planet. On top of which, her fifteen minutes expired in the 90s. Nobody “cares” what Oprah thinks, who she interviews, how her weight fluctuates, her sexual orientation, the clothes she wears…nobody cares, Oprah.
