1) Morale of other staff - There is nothing worse than hearing somebody tell you that grass is greener where they're going.
I think there's nothing worse for the other staff than seeing how shabby a company treats someone who has worked hard helping the company meet its goals. I've been at three companies where someone on my team was disappeared by HR. In all cases the person leaving wanted to do the right thing to minimize the effect of their departure. It was a depressing blow to the entire team when the company acted on the assumption that the person -- and by extention, any member of the team -- was an immanent threat, despite the person's history of loyal professionalism and service.
Whatever gave you the idea that everything you read is based on fact? Do you seriously believe that everything the Bush administration publishes is based on fact? That everything in the EB is based on fact? That everything in your textbooks is based on fact? That everything in the newspaper is based on fact?

The problem is that people like Seigenthaler and you need to grow up yourself and stop nurturing the illusion that publication is some kind of quality control.

Even though the term "black hole" was coined in December 1967, I don't think the original Star Trek series ever mentioned or included black holes.
