A fishing expedition and a hostile work environment

Note: I submitted this letter to the editor on May 11. It is strange that Indianapolis Monthly is digging up a six month old controversy on an IU professor's tweets. What exactly is the agenda here? This was explained before, but it deserves to be explained again: Eric Rasmusen is an intellectual. He reads a lot, and he quoted an article someone else wrote. This is boringly normal on social media and was boringly normal for over twenty years before that on blogs and forums - people pick out a quote from an article and share it. It is almost as if people are just discovering how the Internet works. The outrage against Rasmusen is wildly disproportionate to quoting and linking to an article on his Twitter profile.
