Oprah Winfrey’s upstart OWN cable network is facing its first lawsuit. An ex-OWN employee who suffers from multiple sclerosis is suing the company for creating a “hostile work environment.”
Catherine Dunn, 57, who began working as an assistant at OWN in August 2008, claims she had to take a leave because her MS symptoms “were exacerbated because of the workplace stress,” according to TMZ.com.
