She knowing the other person was offered a job sure may happen (although it doesn't make much sense to talk about someone not hired with someone you hired), but the way it was rolled on the tweet comment makes it seems like she knew how much was offered, otherwise she agreeing with the full tweet makes no sense, she already had confirmed about the a role offer.

And you can see PG management is a mess. One of the vital things structured companies have on their training and sometimes even contract is to reinforce that you don't talk in the name of company, don't comment in legal things regarding the company, etc. Only people with authorization to do so do it.

Thinking about where the leaked documents came from that were presented to Jason/Bloomberg, etc, you'd think not many at Platinum would have access to the those. So this may have come from the top, because Taylor decided to publicly break NDA with misleading information.
Leaking those documents is probably also illegal. But understandable considering the circumstances.

Since Hale was dragged into this and attacked, Platinum may have reached out to her and briefed her on what they plan to do to protect their employees. She may have found out that the documents were sent to Bloomberg that way. Not necessarily the specifics of what were in them.

Though it could also just be her banking on the reputation of those journalists.

This type of document yes very few should have access to and leak. The leaking itself could give margin for lawsuits (but since she broke NDA herself, or at least that is the claim, that could lose some weight, although in some countries like Brazil she breaking NDA wouldn't be considered as troublesome as the company at least to our judges that mostly side with employees/contractors).

Yes she just saying the journalists are trustworthy is perfectly fine (although the wording seems to indicate more to the document than their credentials, she had already said they were trustworthy on a different tweet), and sure it is likely that PG just said to her the documents is real, but if they said they leaked document them they would be making her an accomplice of something unethical or illegal.

Nope, she isn't HR or the direct leader of the other VAs nor the manager of the company to see salaries/wages/etc of any employee no matter the case.

She’s not seeing an employee’s wage, Hellena wasn’t hired. Platinum showing what they were going to pay for the role for someone else isn’t illegal. It’s literally like getting hired for a job and during negotiations the hiring manager shows the paperwork that shows your pay—the same paperwork they showed every other employee upon hiring. 

You have to know what others were going to get paid for negotiations—especially if you are more prestigious because then you have no basis to negotiate. 

Nope, that isn't how negotiations work, at least not ones done ethically. You don't disclose how much OTHER people have asked or were offered, you show how much you are offering for that person.

Also ethically speaking you don't even name whoever else you are negotiating or have negotiated with.
