Jon Ronson And Public Shaming

Whether it's being used to disgrace author Jonah Lehrer or to humiliate PR consultant Justine Sacco, the worldwide web has become a powerful shaming weapon. In his book, So You've Been Publicly Shamed, Jon Ronson tackles the phenomenon of internet-fueled public shaming. He tells Brooke how it's ruined many a career and life in an era of the enormous digital footprint that cannot be expunged.
