How can you fire someone based on a "rant" of a blogger? If the blogger didn't suggest termination of Mr. Moore from the university, how can it be his fault? Even if he did, it's not like he's head of the university's board making all these decisions. If I declare in my blog that Mr. Moron is really a moron (which in all probabilities, he is), and his company fires him saying, "Surely, we don't want any moron to be in our ranks", is that really my fault?
