Interesting Privacy Case
I think the woman here has a hard case to win, including on the emotional distress ground, since the material was not private (she posted it online) and printing what she said should not be "emotional distress" except perhaps in some very narrow case. Still, the principal's actions along with the violent response reaffirms her original sentiments about her hometown. Meanwhile, this is funny.
