Sinclair sued by EEOC for racial discrimination
Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. is being sued by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for the second time in about a week, this time over claims that it discriminated against an employee because of her race. The broadcaster (NASDAQ: SBGI) underpaid a Black woman who served as an analyst in its Cockeysville office and treated her less favorably than other employees who were not Black, according to the lawsuit, which was filed Sept. 28 in U.S. District Court. When the woman notified Sinclair of the pay disparity, the company did nothing to boost her pay, which compelled the woman to resign, the EEOC said in a release Thursday.
