Heading: Brewery’s response to Cunningham

Text: Anheuser-Busch asserts that it had no knowledge that Cunningham was being harassed, so it had no responsibility to remedy the harassment. It also claims that, because of what it did know, it acted appropriately by removing Cunningham from line 75. A jury could find, however, that the brewery had constructive knowledge that Cunningham was being harassed. A genuine issue of material fact therefore exists as to whether, given that Anheuser-Busch knew that Robinson had previously harassed another female employee, its failure to investigate that harassment or to take additional steps designed to prevent future harassment manifested “indifference or unreasonableness in light of the facts.” See Blankenship, 123 F.3d at 873. Summary judgment was therefore inappropriate as to Cunningham’s claim.
