Ellen Pao suffers complete loss in historic gender discrimination suit

Nellie Bowles end Liz Gannes writing for Re/code:

Around 2PM, nearly two hundred observers — a majority of them women — gathered to listen to the verdict. When it came out, “no” after “no” to each of the four claims, there were a few gasps from the courtroom. And then a hushed silence.

Also, Nitasha Tiku writing for The Verge:

Pao was seeking damages on four claims:

  1. Kleiner Perkins discriminated against her because of her gender by failing to promote her and/or by terminating her employment.
  2. Kleiner Perkins retaliated against her by failing to promote her because she complained about gender bias at the firm
  3. Kleiner Perkins failed to take all reasonable steps to prevent gender discrimination against her.
  4. Kleiner Perkins retaliated against her by terminating her employment because she complained about gender bias at Kleiner Perkins and/or filed this lawsuit.
