I normally put WND in the same column as Alex Jones, but this one caught my attention.

This is interesting because less than 30 seconds of Googling called into question whether this was company policy, as WND purports, or if the employee candidate in question raised some other red flag during the interview process and company counsel just threw out the HS issue as an excuse.“NiSource is wrongly using Ohio law as an excuse to defend its discriminatory hiring policy,” Donnelly said. “There is simply no legal impediment to NiSource hiring a homeschool graduate – especially the one in question here.”
He said Ohio law “clearly recognizes homeschooling as a legal and valid educational option.”
“To rescind an offer of employment to an otherwise qualified and experienced applicant who received a legally recognized education is unreasonable and discriminatory,” Donnelly said.
Looking at LinkedIn it seems their Lead Nerd (programmer) is HS'd. Also, last month NiSource awarded their corporate scholarship to someone who was HS'd.
