IDENTIFYING INFORMATION 2

Ch. 10) Courts could handle these cases, where the company’s complaints may, or may not rise to the level of actionable legal claim by taking each case into major consideration from the defamatory postings that are viewable by all employees within that place of employment. These cases are having a tremendous rise in the last decade due to economic crisis, and the pure nature of employees that are dissatisfied with their current positions. The company that’s being publicly humiliated by their current employees takes these events very serious, and with the use of pseudonym being used, it’s hard for the plaintiffs to figure out who is behind this debacle. “Courts are being asked whether they should authorize this expedited pre-service discovery to establish posters identities sufficiently such that they may be served with process in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure” (Reder & O’Brien, 2002, pg. 1). Courts have to establish more serious punishments for acts of stupidity that take place from employees and allow an override against privacy policies that might be enacted within a corporation, to find out who it is that’s solemnly responsible for the negative comments being advertised. “In order to silence their employee and investor critics, corporations have filed lawsuits under a variety of legal theories including defamation, trademark infringement, and breach of confidentiality agreements and trade secrets, and tortious interference with contractual relations. The theory most commonly used is defamation” (Reder & O’Brien, 2002, pg. 1). This process will just eliminate certain criteria aimed at constitutionally protected speech, and announce

    Facts: In 1998, investigative reporting team, Jane Akre and her husband Steve Wilson, brought suit against their employer WVTV, a subsidiary of Fox TV, under violation of Florida’s whistle-blower statutes. They argued that the station had terminated their employment under grounds of retaliation because the team refused to suppress and distort the contents of a story regarding the controversial Bovine Growth Hormone in Florida’s cattle. Additional claims also brought forth included declaratory relief and breach of contract. After a four-week trial, a jury found against Wilson on all of his claims. Akre decided to drop allegations concerning declaratory relief and the court allowed for continuance based on her whistle-blower claims. The jury granted a monetary award of $425,000 in damages to Akre based on retaliation claims established by whistle-blower statute.…

    When thinking of company emails one might think of the inappropriate forwards that contain attachments of videos of cats from you tube that circulate through the organization or the necessary communications exchange confirming appointments or other important information. But sometimes there’s those heated exchanges much like the infamous email Neal Patterson CEO of Cerner Corporation, is best known for. His email is now covered in text books as “What not to do” in email communications. His email has become notorious and is now textbook material (Chapman, 2004). The email created a firestorm for the Cerner Corporation, in which the email was sent throughout the organization and on to media sites (Wong, 2001). Within days the company’s stock prices dropped dramatically. The scope of Patterson’s leadership has been scrutinized by investors, analyzed by business professionals, and lectured on by academics. Thanks to the example of miscommunication Mr. Patterson has given us, we are able to discuss in detail how the importance of proper communication, and how communication, organizational justice, and perception are all interconnected. The purpose of this project is to explore an example of the corporate incident by applying theoretical concepts in three domains: communication, organizational justice, and perception. This paper will identify specific problems of the…

    Many of these will be incidents that are examples of the horrors of that day that Lance talks about. His experiences in law enforcement have taught me countless lessons and shown me how many people out there will follow through with violence when they don’t get their way.

I learn the details of some of these incidents without the media’s exaggerations. Some of these facts are not known widely about the infamous bombings. These impacts include the monetary damages that terrorism inflicts, along with the injuries and mental trauma to the victims…
