Gasp! A woman is being discriminated in the workplace. We're shocked. NOT! feliciasonmez washingtopo workplacediscrimination

Last month Washington Post reporter Felicia Sonmez filed a lawsuit against the newspaper for discrimination, alleging that editors barred Sonmez from reporting on stories involving sexual assault after she came out as a survivor of sexual assault herself. Now, the lawsuit has also revealed that while the Post barred Sonmez from reporting on certain stories they allowed another reporter who had been accused of workplace sexual harassment to continue reporting on similar stories.

According to The Daily Beast, Sonmez’s lawsuit also mentions how a male reporter who allegedly sent “an unsolicited photo of his underwear-covered crotch to a young woman” was allowed to continue reporting on stories of sexual assault, harassment, and discrimination while Sonmez was not. Though the lawsuit does not mention any names, The Daily Beast’s reporting confirmed that the lawsuit was referring to Post journalist Simon Denyer.
