The recent blow-up over Cooks Source got me thinking. The writer who was wronged in that incident handled things fine, except that she posted part of her private correspondence with the editor who irked her to her blog. Granted, she had a genuine complaint that was in the public interest, but posting personal correspondence to a forum, a blog, or the like is often frowned upon. Personally, I think that a a person who e-mails me is entitled to an expectation of privacy on some level. How can a business function without confidentiality between two parties?
Has anybody here ever felt justified in posting the text of an e-mail (in whole or in part) to a forum, a blog, or to a social networking site? What exactly happened? Why did you do it?
