NFL Under Scrutiny As New York and California Investigate Allegations of Workplace Discrimination

The NFL is facing an investigation by attorneys general in California and New York over claims of fostering a toxic culture that promotes discrimination and a hostile work environment.
The investigation comes after more than 30 former female employees detailed experiences of discrimination and retaliation in The New York Times.
Lawsuits from former employees allege sex, racial and age discrimination, sexual harassment and retaliation in the workplace.
The attorneys general issued subpoenas to gather information on potential violations of pay equity and anti-discrimination laws.
The NFL denies the allegations and says it promotes an inclusive culture, though it will cooperate fully with the investigation.
