Hutchison court records go public


Aug 07 2009

The court documents from Susan Hutchison's 2003 lawsuit against former employer KIRO-TV have been unsealed, following an order from King County Superior Court Judge Timothy Bradshaw.

Hutchison, a candidate for King County executive, had alleged race and age discrimination when the news station replaced her with a younger Asian American. The case was settled out of court in 2005.
