Sinclair Employee Handbook: Read The Full Document (Emps Should Challenge Status Quo)

.

The guide encourages company employees to “be transparent” and “challenge the status quo.”

Sinclair Broadcast Group, the largest owner of local TV stations in the United States, is under fire this week for requiring dozens of its local news anchors to recite a statement condemning “fake” news, an echo of language often employed by President Donald Trump.

HuffPost has acquired the Sinclair employee handbook which states that the company “may monitor, intercept, and review, without further notice, every employee’s activities using Company’s electronic resources and communications systems.”



There is an on-line viewer or just above the viewer is a *link to download the entire PDF.

Actually, the highight section in the excerpt is pretty standard for companies.

*I would not download it. There could be copyright issues.

including one that I literally finished revising last week, and having read the Sinclair version at Huffpost... It's extremely standard stuff. Nothing unusual at all.
