Bunnatine Greenhouse is blowing whistle on Halliburton.
I just read this on CNN. This maybe a dupe!

In the affidavit, Ballard said "Ms. Greenhouse's race (African-American) and gender ruffled a lot of feathers in the Corps command and also contributed to the disparate and highly critical treatment she has received."

"I did not believe that females and minorities are always treated fairly at the corps because of long-standing `good ole boy' mentality by a number of members of the command," he said.

He said at times women and minorities were disciplined for offenses that weren't as serious as those committed by white men.

Kohn said he was unaware of any actions taken by the Corps in response to Ballard's claims of sexism and racism.
