    How can they fire her for this? Are they not opening themselves up for a wrongful termination suit since she didn’t do anything illegal or violate the employment agreement?

      I think this does open them up to a wrongful termination suit. But I also highly suspect the employment agreement listed something vague about ‘a public image that positively reflects on the employer’ or some shit like that. It almost always does for teachers and other workers in schools. Might not hold up in court, but I bet it was in the employment agreement in some form.

        To be fair that quote doesn’t really hold true when someone is posting what they do in the bedroom online :P. Though this isn’t a criminal thing anyway.
