It's basic employment 101. Do you really think BYU's potential customer base is going to think less of the university because somebody says "it's dumb that the church hates gay people so much"? Especially when it wasn't a public post? Bringing an organization's name into disrepute does not always have to involve potential customer's opinions. It often can simply be what the organization is known for. As an employee, you are expected to support your employer's visions, or at the very least, not publicly go against them, which is what she did. Let's consider an inverse example: Org. A is extremely supportive of the gay movement. An employee of Org. A posts "privately" on her FB, saying "Not sure why my boss supports unnatural sex!". It is then made public. Sure, Org. A didn't sanction that. But will it continue to keep a staff member who deems a viewpoint it supports as being negative? I'm willing to bet good money that, if this happens, said staffer will either be fired or be pressured to leave. In any case, just to raise another 2 points: 1. It is not a rare thing to have an organization dismiss an employee (formally or otherwise) when that employee makes a statement against the organization's values - it's actually pretty common. I'd suggest simply not working for an organization you disagree with. 2. A Facebook post is not "private" in the same way that whispering to your spouse. Too many foolish people think that way. If you get whistle-blown, you might as well have shouted it out to the world. Again, if you want to make a remark that could get you in trouble, do it without leaving a trace. Millions of people get away with whispering inflammatory remarks to close friends and families. Or don't do it at all. Facebook. Is. Not. Your. Private. Ranting.
