Associated Press employees want answers after reporter's firing
CNN
More than 100 employees at The Associated Press have signed an open letter calling for more information about the recent firing of Emily Wilder. The journalist's ouster, and the newswire's lack of candor about why, has caused an uproar.
Wilder's ouster, and the newswire's lack of candor about its cause, has caused a rare uproar inside the storied news organization. Monday's open letter said the lack of communication about Wilder's firing "gives us no confidence that any one of us couldn't be next, sacrificed without explanation. It has left our colleagues — particularly emerging journalists — wondering how we treat our own, what culture we embrace and what values we truly espouse as a company."More Related News
