PER CURIAM: Gloria Jordan appeals the magistrate judge's order granting Defendants' motion for summary judgment on her claim that The Jour- nal Newspaper failed to hire her on the basis of race in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C.A. §§ 2000(e) - 2000e-16 (West 1994 & Supp. 1998), and pendent state law defamation claims. We have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge's opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. Jordan v. Journal Newspapers, Inc., No. CA-97-733-A (E.D. Va. Jan. 5, 1998). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
