Fox 2 Detroit counters firing rationale in Asher gender-discrimination case
TL;DR
Fox 2 Detroit defends its termination of ex-anchor Taryn Asher by claiming she engaged in unprofessional conduct (including shouting and profanity) justified by non-discriminatory, non-retaliatory business reasons, while Asher’s lawyers contend the case centers on gender discrimination and retaliation; the Aug. 14 filing outlines timelines around her departure, a laptop dispute, and noncompete concerns as the federal case progresses in the Eastern District of Michigan.
