Got bad press? Just block it!

What if someone set up a web site to rate the managers in your company.  Assume this web site was used by prospects considering working for those managers.  What would you do if you did not like it?  If you were Mesquite High School you would simply call your IT guy and have him block the website from the computers at the school. 

Mesquite High is lock step with 721 other high schools who block RateMyTeachers.com because they don’t like the idea of students rating their teachers.  Note to schools: your students have Internet access at home.  As my 17 year old niece woud say, "Duh!" 

Don’t block data critical of your business, especially if you cannot really block it from anyone but yourself.  Join the conversation or fix the problem.  I think my Mom used to tell me, "where there is smoke there is fire."  Maybe you have an issue that needs to be addressed.  Address it.
