Richard Perez-Pena of the New York Times reports that the envelopes were addressed to high-ranking executives and editors.
Perez-Pena writes, “But Journal employees, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter, said that at least some envelopes were sent to Robert Thomson, the managing editor; Paul Gigot, the editorial page editor; and Les Hinton, the chief executive of Dow Jones & Company, the unit of News Corporation that owns the paper.
