Hewlett-Packard obtained the phone records of nine reporters as part of its internal probe of information leaks. The company sent the list of the nine reporters to the office of the attorney general of California. The Wall Street Journal and CNet published reports including leaked information from board meetings. HPs internal investigation was sparked by what the company said were “multiple leaks of confidential HP information,” including discussions by the board of directors, HP said in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.”]
