The Repercussions of Blogging

Posted by Zonk on from the policies-looking-for-a-good-home dept.

hende_jman writes "How much should you be allowed to say in a public blog? There's an article on CNN that looks at different situations in which people have been fired for blogging about their company. The main issue brought seems not to be one of a lack of trust (blogs, after all, are most often public), but rather a lack of policy outlining repercussions for negative blogging about one's company."

    If you are dumb enough to speak out against your employer in public, regardless of whether its a blog or right outside the company door, you deserve to be fired.

    At least have the brains to bash your employer anonymously. No one wants to have known morons in their staff.
