Ms. Magazine Article Highlights the Challenges of Filing a Sex Discrimination Charge.

Ms. Magazine ran an article in 2004 regarding the challenges of filing a gender bias charge. In the article, author Pamela Haag wrote, "A 1993 Supreme Court decision holds that even if a plaintiff proves her employer lied about a hiring decision, she must also show that the lie hides a discriminatory intent, which is extremely difficult to prove. . .Since the mid-1980s, courts also have been more inclined to dismiss discrimination cases on summary judgment, which means that the plaintiff does not get her day in court because the judge believes her case is doomed to fail."
