David Fox

In the discussion in your illustrious pages of the David Fox affair, it was stated [by John Atkinson] that a bureau chief in Asia was fired in 1996-7 for a screentop exchange with the desk in Hong Kong. I can assure readers that no one was fired over a screentop exchange with the desk or anyone else during my time as News Editor Asia from 1994 through 1998.  ■
