Mediaite reports:
A whopping 13,000 federal employees reportedly received an abusive email on Thursday after a new broadcast system was quickly exploited.
In an email with the subject header, “Resign,” all 13,000 federal employees of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reportedly received the abusive message, which read, “Aren’t you tired of working for a complete cunt?”
“I’m sorry this happened to us,” responded NOAA Deputy Director of Communications Scott Smullen in a memo to staff. “I will report it.” The incident demonstrated just how easy it is to exploit a new broadcast system set up by the Trump administration this month.
