Amy-Erin Blakely (PICTURES): Fired for Having Big Boobs?

This case may be a lay-up for Gloria Allred if true.

But, I can’t believe in this day and age where you can be accused of sexual harassment for saying hello to a woman, that this stuff still happens.

CBS News reports that qn Orlando woman has teamed up with high-powered attorney Gloria Allred to sue her former employer for gender discrimination and retaliation, after she said she was sexually harassed by managers who commented on her breasts.

Amy-Erin Blakely filed the lawsuit in an Orange County court on Wednesday and said the harassment at The Devereux Foundation went on for about five years.

Blakely managed 900 employees at the nonprofit behavioral health organization that also provides foster and adoptive assistance. Blakely says she worked for the organization in Orlando until she was fired last year after she accused managers of sexual harassment, according to CBS affiliate WKMG.

"It was very humiliating to know that senior members of our management team would focus on my breasts as opposed to my performance on the job," said Blakely at a Los Angeles press conference Wednesday.

"She also alleges that someone in management talked about how large her breasts were and that she needed to 'hide them,'" Allred told the station.

Allred has also represented Debrahlee Lorenzana, a New York woman who claimed earlier this year that her employer, CitiBank, fired her because of her sex appeal.

Reporter Ines Sainz Claims She 'Never Felt Attacked' by Jets Players During Practice

In my opinion, and I wasn’t there. but from the photos that you can click to below Ines Sainz acted more like a bimbo than a professional sports reporter.

A professional doesn’t go around measuring a player’s biceps and lets herself be hoisted in the air by two players like she was a human banner.

When she does something like that can you blame the players for treating her like any other groupie?

As for her attire, it screams, “LOOK AT ME, I’M GORGEOUS!” She was supposed to be dressed for work, not decked out to chill at a bar during happy hour.

If Ines Sainz were my daughter I would slap the spit out her face for shamming the family name.

The New York Post reports that Mexican reporter who claimed Jets players made inappropriate comments at her now says she "never felt attacked" by what happened in the locker room.

Knockout TV correspondent Ines Sainz claimed Jets head coach Rex Ryan, one of his assistants and some of the team's players allegedly pestered her with goofy, on-field antics and locker-room catcalls.

But in her piece for Mexican TV station DeporTV that ran last night, Sainz said she never felt offended and that the whole situation was taken out of context.

"In my opinion, I never felt attacked, nor that they reacted grossly toward me," she said. "I arrived in the locker room and there were comments and games.

One of the other reporters came up to me and apologized for what was happening, but I thought [the players] were joking around."

NFL and team officials yesterday said they were investigating reports the Jets made suggestive comments to Sainz -- who calls herself "the hottest sports reporter in Mexico" -- during and after a weekend practice at their Florham Park, NJ, facility.

"Thanks everyone for your support," she wrote on her Twitter page this morning. "I already spoke to the NFL, which will decide if there will or will not be consequences. I can say that at the time I didn't want to pay attention to what was happening but the rest of the media heard clearly and in solidarity have denounced what happened, hoping that there is always a respectful climate."
