Back in February Tavis Smiley filed a lawsuit against PBS after he was fired for sexually harassing subordinates on his talk show [click here if you missed that].
Tavis just lost a legal battle...
From The Hollywood Reporter
“A Washington, D.C., judge on Thursday denied Smiley’s request for a motion to compel PBS to hand over certain documents as part of a discovery request the network challenged as overbroad.”
PBS “argued that he was requesting documents that dated back more than a decade and weren’t relevant to the contract issues at hand, including the network’s sexual harassment policies since 2000 and any records of PBS managers having a relationship with a subordinate and the resulting disciplinary actions, if there were any.”
