Email archiving and Politics: How email may save Gov. Christie staffer
In email archiving and politics, there are stories where emails run right to the front of the line. In fact, in the story of the New Jersey bridge scandal, Governor Christie is turning out to look like the bad guy. There are emails from one person in New Jersey government to another stating how these bridge closures and delays would affect people who were not in line with the Governor politically.
However, in the story are emails from the a staffer who is noted as saying that they hoped that these closures where not some form of retaliation. Given the highly-sensitive and national nature of the story, this staffer will likely be saved by email archiving.
Anyone who works in the Governor’s office or even remotely linked with him may be implicated in this tale of political retribution. However, this staffer who is genuinely asking, hoping, that these closures are not what they seem is going to come out the other side clean.
Why?
Because email archiving is allowing this staffer to show that they had the common sense to realize that the tact taken by the people in this bridge scandal was inappropriate. In fact, this person said what most people would say. Please tell me this isn’t true.
