I once lazily registered at a political website with my BBC email address and made a comment.  Even tho' it wasn't directly visible, my email address came to the attention of some of the BBC's enemies (right wing blowhards) and they debated getting me sacked. They knew they could and I knew it too. I'd made one mistake and yet, if they'd felt like it, they could have destroyed my employment. Not because I was prominent, but because they wanted to instill fear among the general workforce to remind them they were being monitored. (they actually let me off cos they googled me and found out I was transgendered, they felt sorry for me !!)

And that's the way it works. The BBC couldn't keep her on cos it has to be seen to do the right thing at all times. She used a BBC phone, she made the BBC complicit in her act as that made it an official BBC call. So to absolve their blame, she had to go.

Is it just ? I doubt there's many large companies that could afford the bad publicity of having someone do that. Litigation is expensive and failure to act makes them liable. by using company resources to commit even a low level "crime", she gave them nowhere to go.

As I said, if she'd used her own mobile, she'd still be there.
