I had always thought that a blogger/podcaster has Freedom of Speech rights, but I guess not.

Your own words being used against you is not a violation of "Free Speech Rights." It would be a free speech violation if you were prevented or arrested for making them in the first place.

If I confess to a murder, it is not a violation of my free speech rights if I am thrown in jail for said murder based on my confession.

I am currently in this situation. My wife has made copies of all of my Podcasts and Blog postings and is planning on using them in court against me.

I had allways thought that a blogger/podcaster has Freedom of Speech rights, but I guess not.

Well hopefull everything will work out.

Thanks for the posting, I am glad im not alone.

If P's objective and desires are what she says, why has she stopped blogging about her divorce? Well, heck, why hasn't our modern-day Anne Frank not blogged about not blogging about it?

Hi Penelope,

I think you've provided some great insight here. In my opinion, believing that your job is unique and only you deal with certain work issues not only makes work harder because you feel like you can't ask anyone for help, but it also leads you to become consumed with your job and likely cut off from the rest of the workforce. It's much easier to ask for help than go it alone. Thank you for providing great content.

Take care!
