Thank you for the quick response.
Well...
In going over the history of documented materials
it is a two part intimidation based discrimination...=20
Started before I was hired, continued with intimidation after I was
hired, continued with intimidation after numerous demands for it
to be stopped were literally refused,=20
then when I was interviewed by their attorney and Mr. Martin about
Ms. Thompson's first written complaint I agreed with the facts in that =
letter and
elaborated on the problems I was facing (with both Martin and the =
attorney)
after that it became intimidation to stop me from supporting her case
which resulted in my discharge since that decision came from Mr. Martin
and in completion of the original intimidation which was aimed at
getting me out before I hired an African-American full time.

I have a phone message slip for a call from another African-American
female looking for work. Denise Moseley (receptionist) met her when she =
came to
the station to fill out the application for the job (which was middays =
and was
officially open for interviews as I had a blind published job ad for it =
in numerous
trade journals across the country) when Charlie Cohn stepped in and told =
her there were 'no openings'. He would not let her fill out even so much =
as an application.

I interviewed her later anyway and found she did not have the experience =
to=20
qualify for the job but he had refused her application.

I would rather get this over with and move on with our lives so a =
settlement
would be a nice thing to get it over with BUT if the way Martin has =
handled
this almost year old case up until now is any indication it would appear
he will do the same negotiating tactics he always uses which is to stall
and I won't stall any longer... I was stalled by him throughout all of =
the complaints
about being intimidated in the station and out by his ignoring the =
complaints.

So I'll toss it to your suggestion as to whether to seek settlement or =
go to
court. I just want justice for all of the intimidation and pain suffered =
during
this whole mess. I need what I am entitled to for attempting to hire an =
African-
American female (Trish) full time after months of her being treated like
a third class human by management.=20

If we do go to court it becomes public and I'm sure the station does not
want that press coverage.

Thank you so much for your help.
Lee

Sorry this took so long, I've been rather busy.
I have all of the materials in order but I don't
know the format in which I'll present it. So when the
time comes please let me know with enough time
to get it together... so to speak.
Thank you
