This is embarrassing
Randolph Steven Webster used to be vice president for publicity at FX until he was fired in 2001, then went on to be VP for corporate communications and marketing planning at the Game Show Network and senior VP for communications at Universal Television Group. The problem is, after being dumped by FX, he kept calling in and secretly listening to the weekly executive staff meetings. He did this for 2½ years, the DA says. Webster's lawyer blames "unusual professional circumstances" that wil be explained at the trial. Webster faces three years if convicted. He is married to UCLA tennis coach Stella Sampras Webster, the sister of Pete Sampras. (L.A. Times)

I don't get it. FX fires high-powered execs and doesn't bother to see that the passwords to important things like conference calls are changed? That's their stupidity, however unethical it also is of the guy they fired.
I know the ex-CEO of a internet company who was able to continue accessing the email and intranet of that company for almost a year after they fired him. This a company that was continually touting it's "Innovative, safe and SECURE" technology.
