Blowing the whistle on misconduct is the fault of the one on whom the
whistle is being blown, not the fault of the one blowing the whistle.  Giano
posting the email could not have resulted in drama if the email hadn't been
part of Durova's misconduct.  Any drama from posting the email should then
be attributed to Durova.
