Saturday, June 10, 2006, Seattle Post-Intelligencer (P-I) story:
Boeing employee arrested for information
theft
Man says investigation was retaliation for raising safety issues:http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/273471_boeingarrest10.html(A somewhat balanced story, especially considering the reporter did not seem interested at all in my whistleblower
activities during the very short phone interview of me).---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunday,
June 11, 2006, from The Herald (an Everett, Washington Newspaper):Boeing worker accused of thefthttp://www.heraldnet.com/stories/06/06/11/100wir_b8boeing001.cfm(A rehash of the P-I story gotten by The Herald from the Associated Press. The title of the story was changed
to omit the vital whistleblower info, and other vital information was omitted in the story, making it much less objective
than the P-I parent story).---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wednesday,
June 14, 2006, Seattle Weekly story (online only?):Boeing Busts An Accused Leakerhttp://www.seattleweekly.com/news/0624/buzz.php(Again, the title misleads by omission compared to th P-I story, but this perhaps "online-only" editorial about
the story is somewhat balanced. The main gist of the story is a dig at the Seattle Times for not running my story, and a note
of the hypocrisy of the P-I reporter doing a story on the use of "internal Boeing documents" by another newspaper when
he does so liberally also.)---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unknown date, WQAD News Channel 8, Moline, Illinois:Boeing employee arrested amid theft
investigationhttp://www.wqad.com/Global/story.asp?S=5014168&nav=1sW7(A very short version of the P-I story for those interested that live in Boeing's Headquarters state,
I guess. Unknown if they just posted the story on their site, or both broadcasted it and posted it).---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wednesday,
June 14, 2006, University of North Carolina School of Journalism and Mass Communication Blog:http://weblogs.jomc.unc.edu/talkingbiznews/?p=994(A reiteration of the Seattle Weekly story. This Blog has something the other stories above don't have so far--an
online comment by me. Check out my post at the above link).---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunday,
June 11, 2006, The Dougloid Papers website (for former McDonnell Douglas workers):Proof That Boeing Learned
Something From McDonnell Douglashttp://cornponepapers.blogspot.com/(A blog very unflattering to me and those like me. According to the blogger, he's seen both Boeing and McDonnell
Douglas fire people like me when they become too big a pain in the companys' arse. But the blogger defends those Company's
obvious attempts to "kill the messenger" by in essence stating that an employee must perform any illegal actions requested
by those companies and like it while on "company time." A quite twisted view of the world, I strongly believe. Capitalism
is all well and good when it is well and good, but to some people, capitalism is so sacred that it's unlimited by the bounds
of laws and regulations, and superceeds even the value of a person's, or many persons' lives. These people give capitalism
a bad name, and are alive and well at Boeing, the FAA, and in the blogger world, apparently. A person must follow even the
most minute law or regulation lest they be jailed indefinately, while corporations must be free of laws and regulations of
any sort, no matter how much their conduct threatens innocent lives. These people's love of money knows no bounds. They
consider themselves well above the "common folk" like us with not as much money as them, and despite what I and many
others of more conventional ethic would think about these peoples' lack of moral compass and compassion, they
likely think themselves to be without fault. However, no matter how much these people attend church or believe themselves
to be without sin, it is these very same people who are documented in the Bible as going to have as difficult a time entering
heaven as a camel would have passing through the eye of a needle. Sorry for digressing
somewhat from the main purpose of this site and instead positing on the reasons for the existence of people who's existence
is otherwise extremely hard for those of us born with any reasonable level of ethics to understand). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saturday,
