The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission claims the New York Times engaged in “unlawful employment practices.”
This week, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against The New York Times, claiming the paper engaged in “unlawful employment practices” and discriminated against a white male employee who was passed over for a promotion.
Filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on Tuesday, the lawsuit centers a deputy real estate editor role the unnamed employee applied for in 2025. The EEOC claims the publication’s “stated race and sex-based representation goals influenced the decision not to advance” the man’s candidacy.
“The allegation centers on a single personnel decision for one of over 100 deputy positions across the newsroom, yet the E.E.O.C.’s filing makes sweeping claims that ignore the facts to fit a predetermined narrative,” said Danielle Rhoades Ha, a spokeswoman for The Times. “Neither race nor gender played a role in this decision — we hired the most qualified candidate, and she is an excellent editor.”
The complaint references internal Times diversity and inclusion reports, including a 2021 “Call to Action” that set goals to increase the number of Black and Latino employees. It also cites Slack exchanges between newsroom leaders about diversity hiring trends, and internal correspondence related to the specific hiring process at issue.
According to The Times, those materials were handed over to the EEOC voluntarily during the investigation that preceded the lawsuit. The publication also said the job listing specifically sought someone with experience in service journalism which the person who got the job had, along with supervisory experience. Additionally, the newspaper says the deputy real estate editor’s role was not within the scope of its diversity goals

“Our employment practices are merit-based and focused on recruiting and promoting the best talent in the world,” Rhoades Ha added.
“No one is above the law — including ‘elite’ institutions,” said EEOC Chair Lucas in a statement. “There is no such thing as ‘reverse discrimination’; all race or sex discrimination is equally unlawful, according to long-established civil rights principles. The E.E.O.C. is prepared to root out discrimination anywhere it may rear its head.”
The New York Times is the latest target in the Trump administration’s anti-DEI push. In February, the EEOC issued a subpoena investigating Nike’s diversity policies, claiming they’re discriminating against white workers, months after Lucas, the EEOC’s Trump-appointed chair, launched an investigation into the diversity, equity, and inclusion practices of 20 major law firms. Similarly, in December 2025, Lucas posted a PSA on X, encouraging white males who have “experienced discrimination at work based on your race or sex” to file claims “to recover money under federal civil rights laws.”
Ultimately, the lawsuit asks the court to issue an injunction barring the Times from “discriminating against employees because of race or sex,” along with back pay for the complainant. Rhodes Ha says the publication plans to vigorously defend itself against these claims.
“The New York Times categorically rejects the politically motivated allegations brought by the Trump administration’s E.E.O.C.,” she noted.
However, the implications of this case go far beyond one editor and one job posting. If this lawsuit succeeds, it doesn’t just chill diversity hiring at the Times, but also sends a message to every newsroom in the country about what happens when you try.

She's literally correct btw. This lawsuit is about one guy not getting a promotion, then trying to work backwards to claim their HIRING practices show they discriminated against him getting said promotion. Even though, you know, they did actually fucking hire him.

It is. Being anti-white still makes you a racist and judging someone's fitness for rights or cancellation based on race still makes you a chud, whether you're liberal or conservative.

>>1513497
The thing is, mediocre white chuds actually are being excluded as a group because of DEI.
Whites only employment policies have to exclude a lot of top tier candidates for purity reasons, so as you keep going down the list they have to fill a lot of roles with underqualified white chuds
Every qualified DEI hire pushes out a mediocre white chud.
They're being genocided, and I love it

>>1513488
>>1513497
NYT said they wanted to discriminate against Whites. Then a White male was denied a promotion. Maybe it's a coincidence. Maybe the other person really was more qualified. But if Fox News said that they would discriminate against Black women and then denied a promotion to a Black woman, I'll bet you would assume she was discriminated against.

Your reverse uno card rascism is pathetic. This wild push by white supremacists across the country to claim any attempt to balance power away from the massive control that white peoples have is actually racist to whites… shut the fuck up. You have had all the power for all of existence. I know you hate seeing skin that doesn’t match your own. But your genetics are inferior. Your skin is inferior. Your brain is inferior. Your culture is inferior. Die alone while the rest of the world keeps fucking till we are all a mixed race hue.
>>
>>1513665
If we swapped the races in your post, you'd sound like a white supremacist. From assigning moral and biological traits based on race, to the idea that all white people are collectively responsible for every historical power structure - that's literally white supremacist rhetoric with the labels swapped.
Ironically, the political right is far more responsible for hurting marginalized people, including white people who are poor, queer, disabled, immigrants, or otherwise outside the "correct" mold. Those people are routinely exploited, disenfranchised, and scapegoated by the exact systems you're supposedly railing against.
You're basically a right-wing strawman brought to life. Your rhetoric is politically self-destructive. There are natural allies sitting all around you, but instead of building solidarity you're preaching racial essentialism like a grand fucking dragon.
Younger white voters see rhetoric like this and conclude - correctly - that you're judging people by skin color while pretending it's morally enlightened because it's aimed at the "right" targets. Then they drift toward reactionary politics because at least those movements openly admit they're playing identity politics.
If you genuinely want to affect change, shut the fuck up. You're moving in the exact opposite direction.

>>1513673
Just pointing that out. You can make arguments about anti-white discrimination all day but when it comes down to this specific lawsuit, the evidence this guy wasn't promoted solely because of race doesn't really add up. Hell the NYT's response indicates he didn't even have the proper experience required for the position.

>hypocrisy is fine!
>b-b-but you can't be a hypocrite against me!!
White rightards deserve perecution & bigotry against them for the crime of being rightards, and for the crime of existing.
If they can't take it, they don't have the right to dish it out. And your wrong opinions are even more reason why white rightards only deserve persecution & bigotry.
>I know you hate seeing skin that doesn’t match your own
I'm white - unlike the non-American that is you, shill - thus it's fine to persecute & be bigoted against white rightards.
>But your genetics are inferior
I'm not the shill that infected /news/ whose genetics resulted in the single brain cell that makes it behave the way it does in /news/. I don't behave the way you do here, so what's your excuse?
>Your skin is inferior
>Your brain is inferior
Says that which can only project
>Your culture is inferior
Says that which avoids toilets.
>Die alone while the rest of the world keeps fucking till we are all a mixed race hue
Says the projecting non-American that will die alone, and will never be a white American. And probably isn't even in America as it posts its wrong opinions that only deserve to go into the trash. And is the insecure >>1513655 that continues to prove it is by merely continuing to exist in /news/ because its supposedly 'superior mindset - or it wouldn't need to be here if it wasn't insecure - is proven to be inferior.
Because that's what projecting shills such as you are, >>1513665 : inferior.
>>
>>
>>1513669
He's right though. In any reasonable distribution of employment, every job should be at least 70% white Americans, because the country is 70% white Americans, but the racist policies that many corporations follow require there to be at least 50% minorities, which means they're being given disproportionate representation based on racist lines.
>>1513677
>White rightards deserve persecution and bigotry
And there it is. Racism and bigotry is okay as long as its against the people you don't like. You may find this difficult to believe, but you're exactly like the people you hate, verbatim. The only difference is that you picked a different skin color to be racist about.

it's not conclusive but it's definitely enough for a lawsuit. Let NYT prove why their policy of discriminating against White people (which they publicly stated they wanted to do) didn't apply to this specific case.

Hiring a single black person lowers the percentage of white people at a company. Does that mean they can’t hire any non-white person at all?

It keeps being humiliated in /news/ - and every single time it posts in threads which it abandons when it knows its wrong opinions are proven to be more than wrong by others - because the projecting foreign lolcow shill is insecure. Thus it continues being the lolcow of /news/. It would know how to avoid being constantly humilated if it didn't want to be the resident lolcow here. Or it has a humiliation fetish.

>>1513803
That between >>1513825 and >>1513828 projects by using a word that is a staple of those who aren't adults. Itself using a buzzword. And continues to project. It indeed has a humiliation fetish, demonstrated by its need to post in /news/, then when it is further humiliated by others it abandons threads it infects. Which has happened every single time it does. Thus it is indeed the lolcow of /news/. It knows how it can avoid being said lolcow, but it has that humiliation fetish.

Ok explain it then. how are percentages relevant here?
And can you answer the previous question. How are they "hiring black people instead of white people" rather than "hiring black people in addition to white people"?
Was it bad that previously white only companies started hiring black people after segregation ended in places like the USA or south africa? That decreased the percent of white people at the company.

Why can't you answer the question. How is the NYTime case different?

Yeah, that's what it supposed to look like you colossal faggot. Because whites actually are the best and hiring minorities is a direct expression of racism and discrimination. Why else would you want them if not to discriminate against the best? Would you not otherwise just hire the best?

You're getting angry because a double standard in your reasoning has been pointed out. So you're resorting to spamming the same meme over and over because you aren't smart enough to think about what you are saying.
You need to operate under the delusion that
>"liberals are pretending not to understand things, making discourse impossible"
because you are an imbecile who is incapable of explaining or even understanding your own beliefs.
You're willing to put in a lot of effort into typing your posts, but you can't actually answer a single question properly. Instead you just mock them and act like they are bad questions. If you were capable of explaining the difference, you'd have answered it by now. Instead you have evaded the question when asked 5 different times. If there is a difference between the two scenarios, you are a retard who incapable of noticing it and explaining it.
