One man gathers what another man spills

Recently, a lawyer at the firm Pepper Hamilton incorrectly addressed a very confidential e-mail to New York Times reporter Alex Berenson - and then sent it (the mail was intended for a Pepper Hamilton colleague also named Berenson).
The interesting part is that Pepper Hamilton is representing drug company Eli Lilly in a very large class action lawsuit, and Berenson just happens to be an investigative reporter writing stories on evil-doing pharmaceutical companies, including extensive reporting on Eli Lilly.
The e-mail divulged secret meetings being held to consider a settlement that could be as large as USD 1 billion.
It doesn’t get any better than this for a journalist. It doesn’t get any worse than this for a fast-clicking law executive. You can read the NYT article here. And thanks to NPR’s On the Media for this story; it wasn’t in my spam box however.
