Phoenix (Ariz.) Country Club has expelled a member for speaking to The New York Times about the club’s policy of forbidding women in its men’s grillroom, a point of dispute among some members.
According to a followup article in The Times, Rusty Brown said Wednesday that he received a letter this week informing him that he had been expelled for “multiple violations of club etiquette.”
Brown told the paper he understood that the expulsion pertained to a bylaw recently adopted by the club’s Board prohibiting “derogatory or otherwise injurious comments in the media” about the club.
