Aishes Chayil,
So if someone makes themselves “fodder”, does that give us the right to spread L”H about them without even attempting to shield them from further shame? No mercy?
I can see a possible toeles in mentioning the story –without names– in a discussion of avoiding chillul Hashem. But once the video comes into play, things quickly go from a toeles discussion to “let ’em have it for embarrassing US!” Also in play is the fact that the video is going “viral.”
To summarize my position, I am not opposed to a discussion of “Jews going on court TV to settle a claim, chillul Hashem?”, but I am opposed to spreading the video.
