why am I not surprised?
FERC Web site hosts pornographic Enron e-mails
from the Associated Press
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Senator Maria Cantwell, a Democrat from Washington, says that a Web site operated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission contains links to pornographic e-mails written by Enron Corporation employees.
Cantwell called on FERC to review the database linked to its Web site and remove any e-mails containing offensive or sexually explicit material.
Cantwell said yesterday, quote -- "How serious are they about the investigation if FERC doesn't even know that their Web site has pornographic e-mails?"
A FERC spokesman denied the Web site contained pornography, but acknowledged that some e-mails from Enron employees -- linked to the site as part of a database on alleged electricity market manipulation by Enron -- may contain pornographic language.
FERC spokesman Kevin Cadden says access to the e-mails is indirect and includes clear instructions that a user must leave the FERC site to view the material.
also, this from yesterday's FERC press release:
“As our 2002-2003 staff investigation showed, the corporate culture at Enron ‘fostered a disregard for the American energy customer,’” said FERC Chairman Pat Wood, III. “These taped conversations indicate that this corrosive attitude seeped down from the corporate offices to the employees at the front line.”
