Argued April 13, 2000 Plaintiff Robin Hoffmann sued Primedia Special Interest Publications (""Primedia"") under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), 29 U.S.C. sec. 621 et seq. The district court granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment and denied the plaintiff's motion to alter or amend that judgment. For the reasons stated herein, we affirm. Background Hoffmann was a Circulation Marketing Manager at Primedia, responsible for developing strategies to meet Primedia's revenue and expense objectives and forimproving performance of Primedia's circulation department. In July 1997, Steven Elzy became President of Primedia, with the objective of turning around the poor performance of the company. On August 22, 1997, Hoffmann was discharged on the instruction of Elzy. She was 42 years old at the time of her discharge.
