A former staffer for the Washington football team now called the Commanders accused her boss of using “Jewish slurs” and other forms of verbal harassment during her time with the organization.
“I was called Jewish slurs that refer to a non-Jewish woman that you are sexualizing,” Emily Applegate said Thursday during testimony to the US House of Representatives Oversight Committee, which is probing allegations of harassment and misconduct within the NFL franchise. “A slur which I will not repeat a rabbi described as ‘simply indefensible, condescending, racist, and misogynistic.'”
Applegate did not name her boss in the testimony, but The Washington Post, which in 2020 broke the allegations by at least 15 women of a culture of sexual misconduct, said it was Mitch Gershman, the chief marketing officer. Gershman at the time denied Applegate’s allegations.
Applegate worked for the team in 2014 and 2015. Gershman left the team in 2015.
Applegate said that Dan Snyder, the Jewish owner of the team, is responsible for the alleged harassment.

This week in tattle tale nation.
And …?
Give Whoopi Goldberg a presidential pardon. Jews are not a race. So what. The haters still manage to hate. But this is pure BS.
I don't know this one.
But that "sexualizing", sounds pretty bad.
Yep. Enough already. YAWN!
And enough already! It’s pure mishugas and I’m sick of it. Jewish team owner allows Jewish slurs. Woooo! What next? There are NO Jewish Pokemons! Are Jap-animations anti-Semitic? Were the Three Stooges Islamophobic?
She was called a “shiksa”. Could well be considered insulting, depending on the context, but my god, is this worthy of congressional hearings? Let’s be a little less fragile.
I grew up Jewish and don’t consider it a slur against the woman, it’s meant to guilt a Jewish man for being with a non-Jewish woman in the first place. “Oh, so he married a shik—”
Shiksa?
That’s an unspeakable slur now? Can we do something about gringo and haowlie next?
Please!
Sure thing, honkey.
Shiksa, I assume? If so, BFD
Lemme guess she was called a shiksa. Ya think? Give her a million dollars for harassment.
Poor baby! Its 2022, not 2015, so nite me, and move on.
A woman working in 100% ‘manworld’, and could not be a duck enough! boohoo!
It’s one for the money. Two for the show. Grab yerself a lawyer and go cat go! Sue sue sue, and don’t ya step on my blue suede shoes.
They really gotta get Snyder out. He’s an unrepentant jerk that started damaging his franchise’s reputation from day one, and has run it into the ground. He’s bad for the shield in every way an owner can be.
Apparently, Emily is not an Applebaum
The constant cries of racism and being offended are paralyzing our nation.
