August 8, 2013 – Tennman Executives speak on Santana Lopez lawsuit

Following the filing of a LGBT Discrimination lawsuit against them the executives of Tennman Records have come forward. Producer James Font denies that there is any truth to the allegations that the company had plans to drop Lopez based on her sexual orientation. Font said in a statement to the press:

"That is absolutely preposterous. We pride ourselves on treating everyone fairly. I am not sure the events to which Ms. Lopez is referring and I don't know why Ms. Lopez would make up such rumors."

On the other hand CEO and founder Justin Timberlake's comments were very vague and much less sure:

"I hope that we can all get to the bottom of this very soon. I don't know if there is any truth to the claims. I have the upmost respect for Santana and her work. I have nothing but love for her and I hope that for her sake we can get to the bottom of this."

When asked what this means for his company, Timberlake is quoted as saying:

"Restructuring for sure. I don't want to ever have this happen again. Even to have claims that my execs may be discriminatory is a disgrace."

It seems as though the lawsuit will have an effect on the record label no matter what the verdict.
