She had been employed by the show starting in 2003. The lawsuit against Dr. Phil McGraw, CBS, and the show's production company suggests a hostile work environment that forced Rothman to quit in April 2015. CosmicYello obtained court papers to find out the details. According to Rothman, she and 300 other employees were called to work and put into a large room together. Multiple security guards were also present. Allegedly, McGraw came into the room and addressed the gathered employees. First, he told the security detail to lock the room's doors according to the court complaint. Then, he allegedly demanded that all employees give him their cellphones. Allegedly, he informed everyone that an employee had leaked information to outside media services. According to Rothman, he then said, "If you F- with me, I'll F- with you." According to the lawsuit, Dr. Phil McGraw used cue cards to talk to the employees, which seems to show that this even was well-planned in advance. It likewise claims that McGraw already knew who leaked the information, but called the meeting anyway so he could intimidate and frighten his employees. Rothman claims McGraw expressed pleasure in being able to do so. Rothman reports she approached human resources at CBS on March 18, 2015 to discuss the event. The HR executive allegedly offered sympathy and attempted to set up a future meeting, but it never took place. Rothman alleges that human resources ignored other attempts to contact them. Several weeks later, Rothman claims she was forced to quit due to emotional turmoil and stress over the incident and treatment following it. She had been employed as a segment director with the company. Rothman's lawsuit covers claims of false imprisonment, whistle blower retaliation, emotional stress, and wrongful constructive termination. Dr. Phil McGraw's spokesperson would not comment on the matter.

Sounds dubious litigation..host of family show wouldn't use language like that. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest
