Las Vegas Man Accused of Death Threats to Lawyers Suing Fox News -
By JAMES C. McKINLEY Jr. JUNE 9, 2017
A computer repairman from Las Vegas was charged on Friday in Manhattan with threatening to kill New York lawyers who
have filed an anti-discrimination suit on behalf of 11 black employees at Fox News, the police and prosecutors said.
The calls started shortly after the lawyers, Douglas H. Wigdor and Jeanne M. Christensen, appeared with the plaintiffs in a televised news conference announcing a class-action tort, alleging
that Fox News executives tolerated “abhorrent, intolerable, unlawful and hostile racial discrimination” in the workplace.
He threatened to blow up the firm’s Fifth Avenue office
and to shoot its partners for pursuing the suit against Fox News, lacing his comments with derogatory comments about blacks, Lt. Paul Ng, a spokesman for the New York Police Department, said.
