Online dating service eHarmony will start a matchmaking service for lesbian and gay singles to settle a discrimination complaint in New Jersey.
The agreement between the company
and New Jersey Attorney General's Civil Rights Division also calls for eHarmony to pay $50,000 to the state and $5,000 to a resident, Eric McKinley, who brought the complaint.
The new service,
Compatible Partners, will debut next March and will offer free six-month memberships to the first 10,000 people to register within one year.--Wendy Davis
