Kat Coble exercised her right to post as she pleased on her own personal blog about an issue she had with the company, JL Kirk & Associates. Evidently, they were none too pleased, and today, KC received a cease & desist. JL Kirk & Associates has severely underestimated the support she would receive from the blogging community in defending her right to post freely on her personal blog.
The entire play by play is here.
So Kat, I just wanted to say that along with all of these supporters (and many more, I’m sure)…I support you, too.
