1. Comment - RadioShack Sends Pink Slips via E-mail

   (Aug 30, 2006 - 4:37 PM)

   In most large organizations when people are fired (downsized, right sized, let go, pick your term); they are removed from any corporate systems that could be used to cause trouble like access to the network or email. How do they maintain control if the employee decides to email the world about how much the company sucks or if they have access to the network or other resource they don't start deleting things?
   
   Radio Shacks HR and Management don't have (excuse my french) have the balls to talk face to face with a human being and say "We're letting you go!". The hardest part of being a manager is having to give this type of bad news to an employee; but I can respect a manager who can face me and explain it all to me. I don't respect a company that can't look you in the eyes when they cut you off at the waist.
   
   It's bad enough they are being laid off but to add insult to injury were not going to talk to about it face to face.
   
   Boy Radio Shack sucks!

2. Comment - Judge: Web Sites Must Reveal Sources

   (Mar 9, 2005 - 1:02 AM)

   The Constitution of the United States doesn't make a distinction between media outlet types (TV, Newspaper, Magazine, Web Site or Web Blogger) when it speaks about "free speech" and "freedom of the press". It protects the individual’s right to "free speech" and the "freedom of the press". If Apple gets away with this type of attack on web based media; what will be next? If the Washington Post broke a story like "Watergate" today but published it on its web site; could be compelled to divulge their sources? Would or could Beta News be compelled to divulge their sources since they have no print publication or media outlet as required by the California law. I hope this goes to the US Supreme Court; the California Law should be found to be unconstitutional.
