**First Look Media** [responded](https://archive.is/ACM36) that they "did not renew Laura Poitrass independent contractor agreement because, despite our financial arrangement, she has not been active in any capacity with our company for more than two years." In [a co-authored article](https://archive.is/mUCZc) from November 2014, exactly six years prior to her termination and about nine months into [**The Intercept**'s launch](https://archive.is/SOkR5), it was noted that "Greenwald, Poitras, and Scahill all opted to be independent contractors rather than First Look employees in order to maximize their freedom to speak out and act."
On March 23rd, Poitras updated the open letter with audio clips and stated "[I continue to maintain, as I have done from the start, that my firing was the culmination of the companys retaliation against me](https://archive.is/S7jVW)."
