As if the struggling paper didn’t have enough problems, Washington Times editorial page editor Richard Miniter has filed a discrimination report with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, alleging the paper forced him to attend a Unification Church event in December 2008, among other grievances.
According to the complaint, Miniter “was coerced by President Tom McDevitt to attend a Unification Church event in New York City with him.”
McDevitt was one of the three executives ousted in last week’s shake-up at the Times. Miniter also alleges the paper discriminated against him based on his age, religion and disability.
Documentation of the complaint follows.
