Diane Keaton was just doing her job. A seasoned journalist, she was gathering information on the paper and pulp industry, interviewing sources and writing news stories for Los Angeles-based ForestWeb Inc.'s PriceBeat, a news site devoted to the paper and pulp industry.
Now she's being sued. Paperloop.com Inc., the online arm of the trade publication Pulp and Paper Week and Keaton's former employer, is suing ForestWeb, Keaton and two other former Pulp and Paper Week employees that jumped ship for ForestWeb.
The reason: stealing sources. At issue is whether a reporter's sources are the property of the publication for which the reporter works.
