Baltimore Symphony Orchestra flutist who shared conspiracy theories online fired: report
Local CBS affiliate WJZ reported that flutist Emily Skala was fired due to what the orchestra said was her violation of its "discipline policy," though it did not specify how she had violated it.
“Principal Flutist Emily Skala has been dismissed from the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra in accordance with the progressive discipline policy agreed to in our collective bargaining agreement with the Musicians’ Association of Metropolitan Baltimore Local 40-543, AFM,” BSO President and CEO Peter Kjome said in a statement to local CBS-affiliate WJZ.

Skala was appointed to principal flutist in 1988.
Skala had shared conspiracy theories online earlier in the year that claimed COVID-19 was created in a North Carolina lab before being sold to a lab in Wuhan, China, according to WJZ.
