So what?Because social media allows something that's stupidly posted to reach a world-wide audience in a nanosecond.
One TV station picks it up, and then others.If your ridiculous little hypothetical were to happen, and she posted it on telephone poles, then it never would have this type of audience...
You object to the mobile web, which enables millions to communicate things to the world they never could before? You're saying we should first consider if a issue is a viral social media thing, before we express our opinion on it and if it is we should just ignore it because it's like, social media and stuff?
Had he intentionally done it, maliciously done so, he probably does lose his job social media or not.There was a constable in my old town who flat out shot a dog in public... a mistake. And it made the local news. But he didn't post it on social media... Still working as a constable there.
