SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 7 – Paul Pennolino, a
director of Trevor Noah's
Daily Show, was fired at 61
years old and sued for age
discrimination.
On September 6,
2022, U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge Lewis J. Liman held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Pennolino's
lawyer said his client was
fired only for age
discrimination. Judge Liman
said that probably wasn't what
the defendants would say. He
asked about the directors'
union.
Plaintiff's
counsel is asking for $20
million in lost future
earnings, and saying his
client was told he didn't fit
with the show's younger
demographic.
The case is
Pennolino v. Central
Productions LLC, 22-cv-5051
(Liman)
