Calgary daily investigating own employees after memo leak

    Memo from top editor:

    Folks,

    It was brought to my attention last night that the afternoon email I sent out to the newsroom about today’s 10 a.m. update was sent out from a newsroom employee to a third party out of office.

    This is not the first time something like this has come back to me.

    Clearly, it is against our email policy to send internal communication to an adversarial outside institution, and an act that the company views as a breach of trust (see the legal warning at the bottom of every email you send).

    An investigation has begun. I would advise you all strongly not to do this in future.

    I remember when newspapers used to investigate public corruption, social ills, and other civic matters.

    How fucking stupid does an employee have to be to forward the thing from a work-owned email account?
