CNN
Michelle Gotthelf, the former editor in chief of the New York Post's digital operation, filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against the tabloid, alleging she was wrongfully fired earlier this month after she reported to her boss that a longtime lieutenant of Rupert Murdoch sexually harassed her.
Gotthelf alleged that the Murdoch-lieutenant Col Allan, who once was the longtime editor in chief of The Post and who returned to the paper as an adviser in 2019, fostered an abusive workplace environment, harassed her personally over several years, and propositioned her for sex.
Gotthelf also alleged that Allan made degrading comments about women while in the newsroom, referring to some as "skanks" and once describing a female employee as a "sneaky lesbian."

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
