Producer Alleges Racism On ‘Judge Judy’

LOS ANGELES (CN) - The Judge Judy Program fired a producer because he complained of the show's racist screening process, Jonathan Sebastien claims in Superior Court. He claims his boss, defendant Randy Douthit, told him, "We're not doing any more black shows," "I don't want to hear no black language on the TV," "I don't want to hear black people arguing," and so on. Sebastien also sues Paramount Pictures and Big Ticket Television.
