    Yes, I made a mistake while posting late at night, which I corrected and apologized for.

    As to the email, DegreeInfo has a long history of posting any threats we receive from unwonderful schools, since the threats themselves tend to speak, better than we ever could, to the quality of the institutions (or businesses masquerading as institutions) making the threats.

    And the individual in question is listed in whois, which is publicly available information, so there's no privacy issue.

    Absolutely true.

    A local newspaper (Raleigh News-Observer) did a week long series about problems at the Durham District Attorney's Office. The District Attorney complained about the series, but the paper says that they got her input and included her comments in the stories as they were published.

    Nevertheless, she insisted, there were a lot of emails exchanged between her and the reporter, and she wanted the paper to publish all of them in their entirety, so that the public could hear her side of the story.

    So they did. They made the full text of all the emails available on their website.

    The funny thing is that there are several emails from the paper trying to talk her out of making all of the unedited emails available. She insisted.

    Reading the emails, one wonders how she got through law school. She writes like a 7th grader. The full text of the emails makes her look far worse than anything in the original series of articles.
