‘We laughed, we ranted, we all said some things. I thought it was a fairly harmless (and rather obvious) attempt at humor in the face of annoyance, and while a couple of people were offended, as is typical behavior from me, I saw something shiny and forgot about it, thinking that the whole thing was over and done and nothing else would come of what I said.’
It wasn’t over. One evening this week, a Secret Service agent showed up at her mother’s door in South Carolina ‘to talk to me about what I said about the president, as what I said could apparently be misconstrued as a threat to his life.’ While the agent quickly determined that she was no threat, it clearly spooked the amateur blogger.
The agent told her that the reason she was investigated was because the FBI received a report about her blog post.” (Poynter E-Media Tidbits )
FmH readers — do me the courtesy, at least, of sending me an anonymous email telling me you when have turned me in to the secret police service, okay?
