Rachael Ray Show Sued for Discrimination

July 3, 2008 by Jeanne  

Aaron Ferguson is alleging that he was forced to quit his job on Rachael Ray’s show due to his eating disorder.  The accountant, how has suffered from anorexia for the past six years, has brought a $1 million lawsuit to the state Supreme Court in Manhattan.   He claims that one of the show’s supervisors was “hostile” and made comments like “anorexics are sick in the head” and “anorexics should not be able to work.” 

He also alleges that, when he complained about how he was being treated, he was forced out of his job.  The lawsuit names CBS Corp., CBSTD Inc. and three employees of the show as defendants.  Rachael Ray is not named as a defendant.
