"She is a horrible, wretched, self-absorbed woman."

Food babe is at it again.

Another Vani Hari FOIA Request


First, some rules. Please do not retaliate or harass her. Respect her privacy for one reason-- I can tell you personally how horrible it is to have someone not respect mine. I do not want her to feel the way I do, because of her. There's some Sunday irony. Thanks.

On Friday afternoon most folks watch that clock as the minute hand clicks toward five o'clock. Last Friday, I got the email that my university had filled another public records request, again from the Food Babe, Vani Hari, and spent the next few hours going through what they plan to send to her.

Why is she going after me? Did I say something wrong? Is something in my publication record not panning out and she suspects undue influence?

No. This is a personal, malicious, expensive attack for one reason-- It is because I corrected her. I stood up when she visited my campus and lied to the students I am responsible to teach.

She wants to know what we say about her, our secret plans. Guess what? Nobody really cares. You'll see us talk about other things, maybe a joke, maybe someone coming to town. BFD.

It is FOIA not being used for its intent-- to solve a crime or investigate wrongdoing. It is taxpayer funded witch hunts to see if anyone said anything bad about Vani. Damn egomaniac.

People are sick of it and in social media many started posting her personal information. I asked them to stop. I even blacked out her email address in the above graphic. Unlike her, I respect the privacy of others.
