Blog draws fine
The National Basketball Association has fined Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban for remarks he posted to his blog. It may be the first case of a CEO suffering consequences from blogging as opposed to the cases of employees who have lost their jobs over their posts. According to a post on FC Now, Cuban opined that the league shouldn’t have started the season on Election Day. The criticism was enough for the NBA to fine him, which drew a response from Cuban: “Do the customers and fans of the NBA or other leagues, feel it makes the league appear stronger, weaker or unaffected when a player, owner, coach, GM, or executive publicly criticizes the league?”
