CNN in the cafeteria: a workplace-harassment timebomb?

You're laughing. But if you haven't read Peter LaSorsa's article in the latest issue of ISBA's The Corporate Lawyer. He recalls his days as counsel to a big corporation, which had TVs on in its megacafeteria. "A funny thing would happen each lunch hour — CNN would end with a clip showing supermodels, usually half-naked strutting down the runway," he writes. "I could usually tell by the looks of the females eating that they weren’t thrilled with what was on the television set. I often wondered to myself what would happen if an employee had a poster in his office of one of the women, half-naked just like what was being shown on television." Good question. So what about those television sets? Read his article, entitled Workplace time bombs.
