TheSmokingGun.com has posted the July 15 letter that former Voice writer Richard Goldstein received from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in response to his discrimination complaint. In stiff language, the letter provides some details of the Village Voice Media's defense against the charges of sexual harassment and age discrimination before stating that the EEOC was "unable to conclude that the information establishes violations of statutes." The letter also warns Goldstein that he "may only pursue this matter by filing suite (sic)" within 90 days, which he did on Oct. 12. The 14-page complaint that Goldstein filed in court is also posted on the Smoking Gun Web site.

In a story published Saturday, the alt-weekly and its parent company, Creative Loafing, Inc., announced that return figures had been inaccurate, possibly for years, under former Circulation Director Zarko Bajsanski. The paper has taken steps to correct the problem, including firing Bajsanski and at least one driver. "I feel like I'm a victim in this as well," says publisher Amber Abram. Bajsanski blames the drivers for providing inaccurate return sheets. The Weekly Planet has also dropped its print run from 95,000 to 85,000 copies and eliminated financial incentives for drivers to keep returns low. Advertising materials have not been changed, and the paper's management expects an upcoming Media Audit report to be consistent with the quality of readership figures provided to advertisers.
