    So, a friend who is a nurse was approached by some pretty major national news outlets to potentially do a "Diary" type thing of her experience as she treats COVID patients. She wants to do it to speak out about how under prepared everyone is, not specifically her place of employment.

     

    The fiancée and I fully support her, but I'm pretty nervous about her potentially getting reprimanded by her employer, or even fired. Any ideas how she could CYOA legally to protect against any retribution?

      Can she do it anonymously to the point of being able to remain unidentifiable or do they expect her to allow them to publish her name and identifying features of her exact location/job?

       

      IMO, either she should get permission from her employer OR she should do it from a place of 100% anonymity. The media outlet would not be held liable in any way if she were to lose her job over it. It would've been her choice to take part in the story. And the outlet isn't about to promise her compensation should she lose her job.

       

      If neither of those things can happen then she should tell them to keep looking.

      She should definitely get permission from the hospital.  She would be exposing people's personal situations to the public and that's just wrong without permission.

      She's not going to expose any HIPA stuff, and the hospital definitely won't give her permission. They're borderline shady as it is. She just really wants to get attention out there because it's not a good situation all around.
