That ship sailed a long time ago
Number 1 rule of work email: assume the whole world can and will see it
It never existed in the first place. There has never been a time where private citizens were to say something to you, write you a letter, email, text, etc, that you had a legal obligation to never tell anyone else. That type of "privacy" protection only exists in very specific areas, but certainly not when a football broadcaster is emailing a team president who he doesnt even work for.
Yep, work email is not private
Read your company's acceptable use policy. They have a right to look at your email. Every company does it.
Exactly, and if you are the person sending someone an email to their work email, that company is under no obligation to keep your email private, (unless it is protected type information like you are emailing a doctor or attorney or something along those lines) but the stuff Gruden was emailing certainly doesnt fit into any of those categories. He should have known other people could potentially read those emails.
Football coaches are arrogant
Sure. He “voluntarily” resigned. Go ahead and shape it as you see fit, you will anyway.
It’s coercion as a result of his expression in his email. Unless he signed a waiver or it was in his employment agreement his emails were subject to review, it can easily be argued (and awarded) it was an invasion of privacy.
IT is rich you are saying I am the one shaping is as I see fit, especially since I never said he "voluntarily resigned", that is you just trying to put words in my mouth.
How is it coercion? He said stupid stuff and was held accountable for it, there is no coercion to that. LIke in many of these situations he was likely given the option to resign or be fired, that isnt coercion, it is actually more like doing someone a favor and letting them resign before they are fired.
There is no expectation of privacy when you send an email to someone else, absolutely none. You keep running with that angle, but that angle simply doesnt exist in reality. If you send someone an email, they are under no obligation to keep your email private. They can forward it, they can talk about it, they can do whatever they wish with it. If it is something you dont want other people to read, then you should probably just make a phone call. You dont seem to understand that freedom of speech doesnt mean freedom from consequences.
I doubt they have the right to hand it to outside media sources... highly doubt it... as in ZERO chance
They can do whatever they want with it. The way corporate lawyers write Acceptable Use policies your emails are all company property.

ok... I will restate... to what purpose would ANY company legitimately have to release internal/proprietary information to any media.
serves zero legitimate business purpose
I agree stinking azz lawyers most likely cover companies for leaks from a legal angle BUT no reason anyone would/should expect Emails to be released to media
And I will grant media dont care about 99.9% of people .... UNTIL they do
I blame MTV for this whole cancel cultur, “They” banned Andrew Dice Clay and it’s been down hill every since.
More importantly, everyone else gets to determine if there is any racism or bigotry. You do not get to explain yourself, add context, or even straight disagree. Once the mob has spoken, you lose.
What I referred to isn't statue of limitations, it's more in reference to what was being investigated, which Jon Gruden was not.
As more comes to light (note the additional stories regarding the Redskins cheerleaders and Gruden).
It is possible that Gruden was much more involved with the skins owner and potentially adding to the "culture".
If there is no evidence of that, then this is a separate case that was only discovered via accident. No different than police having a warrant to search a home for a possible weapon involved in a specific case, and discovering the owner didn't pay taxes and pursuing the taxes. My understanding is police cannot do this.
Oh, and public opinion is generally stupid and should have no bearing on legalities.
His momma about to remove his name from his birth certificate. Gotta cancel him all the way- that's how dis new country rolls............
Has there been proof Kaepernick isn't in the league for his political views?
I thought this WASN'T proven which is why the NFL never got in trouble for this and it turns out that CK's talent has much more to do with him not being in the league.
