TweetPhoto CEO Says Too Much In Interview, Gets Fired. And That’s Just The Beginning…

This story just screams amateur hour, although I can't figure out exactly who's the amateur. Maybe everyone. A CEO says too much in an interview and gets fired. Lawyers go after the blogger to get content removed. And a partner is pissed off. Not bad for a day's work. It involves TweetPhoto , a service we've been writing about since last April . The company has had their rite-of-passage fight with Apple over an iPhone app , and they've done a deal with Kodak that got them some additional press. But until now, no serious drama. TweetPhoto (now former) CEO Dan Caufield did a 23 minute podcast interview with Frank Peters earlier this month. He apparently said too much in the interview, disclosing confidential information about partnerships. He was fired by the company for the transgression. That's enough drama to make me want to listen to the podcast. But it gets better. The company also had its lawyers fire off a letter from its law firm to Frank Peters, demanding that he remove the podcast. Just to be clear, a company is threatening legal action against a blogger for posting an on the record sound recording of the company's CEO.
