Baltimore Symphony Fires Flutist Who Shared Covid Conspiracy Theories

Emily Skala, who has been dismissed for re-posting COVID-19 conspiracy theories, is consulting with her lawyers and intends to challenge the decision

After holding her position for over three decades, the Principal Flute of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (BSO), Emily Skala, was fired following a second instance of spreading misinformation related to COVID-19 on social media...

..The BSO has only specified the social media posts as the reason for the dismissal, as Skala shared a range of posts that questioned the efficacy of vaccines and face masks.

Skala had also refused to comply with some of the BSO's pandemic safety precautions. In an incident on July 23, Skala refused to wear a mask and would not provide evidence of having taken a COVID-19 test...

..Skala criticized the orchestra's public support for the Black Lives Matter movement for being "too political." In addition, she shared posts questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election.
