Food media company Feedfeed accused of discrimination in new lawsuit from former employees

Two former employees have alleged workplace racism and sexism at food media company Feedfeed in a new discrimination lawsuit, The Washington Post reports. The employees, both women of color, say they were paid less than their peers and verbally abused by co-workers during their time at the company. Dan and Julie Resnick, co-founders of the “crowd-sourced publication” with 2 million Instagram followers, vigorously denied the allegations, telling the Post that the company is like a “close-knit family.” In the manner of a slightly less close-knit family, they also told the Post that the number of falsehoods in the allegation were “too numerous to mention.” —H.
