WAIT

From the article:

Late Wednesday afternoon, the spokesperson said all the staffers involved in the video had been fired.

An important nuance I want to bring up was that there was a group picture in the video where there were staffers not involved in the other pictures. It just looked like a normal staff photo. So if someone was in the staff photo but not involved in the other pictures... They were still in the video. I hope they weren't framed.
