The San Antonio (Texas) Express-News is accused of running more than 40 discriminatory ads for rental housing over two years that sought to exclude potential renters based on race, religion, sex or family status, according to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. HUD filed charges against the Hearst Communications Inc. paper today that accuse it of violating the federal Fair Housing Act by publishing 42 such ads between November 2000 and October 2002. The San Antonio FHIP had been investigating possible violations of the Act by the paper dating back to late 2000. [more]
