From Tom Taylor's NOW column today...
A former Chicago AE settles his age discrimination suit against Spanish Broadcasting System. As usual, the door’s locked tight and we don’t learn any details - just that Daniel S. Turpin filed for voluntary dismissal of the suit he lodged three months ago (May 21 NOW Newsletter). There was a “status hearing” coming up in court on August 28. But now Turpin’s asked for voluntary dismissal “with prejudice,” meaning the suit won’t be re-filed...He was fired, then obtained a right-to-sue letter from the EEOC earlier this year. Sounds like the suit got the attention of the company, and they’ve settled.
I think he's just a few years older than me. I worked with Dan at the Loop.
