This afternoon, like any other day, I checked my Facebook account to see what my friends were up to, and get the latest buzz on events/music/etc. I was horrified to find an invite by a certain promoter who will remain nameless berating a woman for her sports views. He created an event specifically for people to add this woman as a friend, and write "boo" on her wall. I was and am horrified. This is so unbelievably unethical, and furthermore, why is it necessary to publicly defame someone?
I sincerely believe that social media needs to be used for good and not evil. I can't even imagine the humiliation and shame that would go along with an experience like
this. Mean-spirited content just doesn't have any place in a public forum.
