The pending employee discrimination lawsuit filed against Geno Auriemma, the NBA and USA Basketball will be addressed on the Anderson Cooper show which will air on CNN from 8-9 p.m.
Word I'm hearing is that nobody from UConn was approached by CNN for comment or to be a guest on the show and there is nothing on Cooper's site or twitter feed specifying the focus of the segment. Perhaps it will be a chance for NBA security official Kelley Hardwick and/or her attorney to tell their side of the story but I guess we'll have to tune in to see what comes out of the show.
UPDATE AT 9 P.M.: I sat through the 8-9 p.m. show which I thought was going to include a segment on the lawsuit referenced above but there was nothing on the subject. I have to admit to never having watched any Anderson Cooper show. There is another one of his shows slated to run from 10-11 p.m. but on his official site has no mention of Geno Auriemma or Kelley Hardwick but does mention an interview with the cast of "Sister Wives." I am sure the folks at UConn will have no problem with "Sister Wives" interviews on the show if it means less publicity on the lawsuit Auriemma is facing. I guess there's nothing else to say except "stay tuned."
