Ageism

"Old Fuddy-Duddy" to get his day in court

Brian Reid, an ex-Stanford professor, will finally have his day in court. He has accused Google of terminating his employment primarily due to his age.

The court documents are interesting because they provide a glimpse behind the scenes, including email exchanges between Google executives and the HR department.

So, the case is going to court. Looks like Google's deep pockets are about to be opened up.
