As more and more personal blogs come online, how serious should the none blogging community take your posts?

The reason this is a discussion this week is more people are being fired and being issued warned for what they post on their personal blog.

I know a nurse who had blogged about a patient that had caused her great frustration. She excluded the name, location and any identifiable details from the post. A few months later she received a warning that if she was to post anything again about patients she would be let go.

I also remember infamous blogger Jeremy Write was fired for blogging.

Do you think that people should be fired for posting on their personal blog?

I have a big problem with this. How hard would it be for anyone of us to start-up a fake personal blog to then have another employee fired?

With that said where is the line and how would you deal with it?
