This tattling to the press stuff, where unnamed sources report quotes from private meetings is dumb. The idea that every single thing you say out loud, regardless of context or setting, can be used to fire you is a bit much.
I don't agree in this case. It wasn't justified at all. To mock someone because they are dying from an illness, whether in public or private is ignorant and that staffer should have known better. I doubt she would have been okay with it if it had been someone else saying that about her grandfather.
