Vicky Wright applied for an editor position with a newspaper owned by Nonpareil. The managing editor interviewed Wright, but hired a candidate who, unlike Wright, had newspaper editing experience and was familiar with the software used by the paper. Wright brought this 42 U.S.C. § 1981 action, claiming Nonpareil refused to hire her because of her race. The district court 1 granted Nonpareil’s motion for summary judgment, and Wright appeals.

Assuming without deciding that Wright established a prima facie case of discrimination, we agree with the district court that she failed to show Nonpareil’s articulated nondiscriminatory reason for not hiring her was a pretext for race discrimination. See Kincaid v. City of Omaha, 878 F.3d 799, 803-06 (8th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
