On Twitter: I’m in a board meeting, having a miscarriage. In Tweeting Your Miscarriage: Is Nothing Sacred? Melinda Henneberger writes: “Thus did 43-year-old Penelope Trunk, CEO of the aptly named “Brazen Careerist” blog, Twitter her recent miscarriage: “I’m in a board meeting. Having a miscarriage. Thank goodness, because there’s a f***-up 3-week hoop-jump to have an abortion in Wisconsin.” (The asterisks are mine, not hers.)  It seems a lot of people have the judgment that was too much information and were offended by it.  To them, I say, then don’t have that person on your Twitter stream.  And don’t care who else does.  Isn’t the point of a free country to be able to say what we want when we want?  It’s the same as tv: I have the right to mute or change channels when anything comes up that I don’t want to be subjected to.  And the broadcasters have the right to broadcast what they do and the producers have the right to have the actors say what they do.  People have a right to say what they want to say, and to share whatever intimate details of their life they want to share.  It is up to them to decide what is appropriate to share.  Just because it’s not something you want to know about them, doesn’t mean it’s not appropriate for them to say it.  And I personally would be much more offended by the violence on the news than by someone blogging the details of her own personal life.  I think she’s bold and courageous to be so open.

And after the media exposure, it’s gotta be good for business.

Or maybe that was the point.
