Beware what you blog!

Flight attendant Ellen Simonetti and former Google employee Mark Jen have more in common than their love of blogging: they both got fired over it. Their bosses said that the comments that they made and some photos that were placed on the blogs were not acceptable. Currently, some 27 percent of online U.S. adults read blogs, and 7 percent pen them, according to The Pew Internet and American Life Project. For Simonetti, a former Delta Air employee and Jen, a former Google employee, said that it was unfair because information that they had written on blogs was not too offensive and was no worse than what others have written in the past. They believe that blogs are very important so that there is communication in the work place. For businesses, blogging is becoming a very popular and in mode thing to do. Because of this,as time goes on, there will actually be laws created that regulate the information that can be spoken of on company blogs. Is it really that serious?Is it fair or ethical to FIRE someone for a few random comments?As a student, can John kick me out of Stats class for the stuff I'm saying on this blog?By the way, who else thinks the Eagles are a horrible team?ha just kidding
