Man "laid off" from Yahoo suing for gender discrimination TheDude41 February 3, 2016 44 upvotes /r/MensRights Hmmm. Plaintiff [Anderson] is informed and alleges that [his former boss] Savitt has publicly expressed support for increasing the number of women in media and has intentionally hired and promoted women because of their gender, while terminating, demoting or laying off male employees because of their gender. http://www.businessinsider.com/ex-yahoo-employee-files-lawsuit-against-qpr-system-2016-2 Quoted from elsewhere: The media division went from 20 to 80 percent female in just three years under the restructuring and review process. The U.S. Civil Rights Act of 1964 outlawed gender discrimination in the workplace. Yahoo countered the claim by noting fairness is a primary goal of the review process.
