Authorship when author leaves the organization that published the article?

A friend wrote an article. She was an employee of a medium-sized national non-profit organization (in the US). The article was published and was sold at a very affordable cost by the organization. It was also made available online by the organization. My friend was always listed as the author.
Some years passed. My friend left the organization due to various factors, none related to the article I mentioned. At some point the organization started listing my friend and her replacement as co-authors. More recently, my friend's name has been dropped completely, and the "co-author" has become the sole author.
Is this kosher? If not, what can my friend do?
