(NEWSER) – Call it therapeutic or call it revenge, but more ex-spouses are airing their dirty laundry on the Internet—and courts are supporting them even if their former partners are not. Personal blogs have quadrupled since 2003, theNew York Times notes in a look at the trend, with many using them to dish about everything from marital affairs, divorce proceedings, or their ex’s profile on Match.com.
This week’s high-profile YouTube posting by the jilted wife of a theater executive is only the latest example. When the founder of DivorcingDaze.com was sued by her ex-husband, claiming her online rants violated the terms of their divorce settlement not to “harass” the other, a judge found her weekly podcasts “ill advised” but covered by the First Amendment.
