Burger King Employees Fired Following Controversy Over Blog Posts

Posted on Wednesday 14 May 2008

Burger King said on Tuesday that it fired two employees following the disclosure that an executive secretly posted blogs slamming a farmworker advocacy group. The company also said it will stop using a private investigation firm whose president allegedly posed as a student activist to infiltrate the group and its supporters. Burger King is in a public relations feud over how to improve wages and working conditions for Florida's tomato pickers.
