Democratic gubernatorial candidate Dannel Malloy put out this statement concerning a Courant story Monday morning that reported on a 2002 lawsuit against his Aug. 10 primary opponent Ned Lamont's cable TV company by an African American former employee. No response yet from Lamont:
July 26, 2010 - Responding to a story in today's Hartford Courant in which it was revealed that Ned Lamont was sued for racial discrimination, and that he settled the suit privately with a confidentiality agreement, Dan Malloy, the Democratic Party's endorsed candidate for Governor, released the following statement:
"Since the beginning of this campaign, I've said that my experiences as a prosecutor and Mayor are why I'm confident I can do the job Connecticut's next Governor needs to do. Ned has said time and again that he should be the next Governor because of his business experience. That's why Ned needs to answer the questions raised in today's Hartford Courant story - because they're about his business.
