I understand and agree. And I hate all these confidentiality agreements
-- we should get the IRS to require transparency of not for profits,
which, as a result of their tax exempt status, operate in effect with
huge subsidies from all of us.
None of this, however, encourages me to want to sign an online petition
without more information.

That's a nice idea, but journalists at least have institutional protection
against libel laws. Any organization even half as big as MoMA has a large HR
dept and is lawyered up to prevent the bottom of the situation from ever being
reached. In short, no one besides Berger's immediate confidants and those that
did the firing are ever going to know what happened. An online petition is
likely all that anyone can do, unless local NYers are willing to boycott the
MoMA.
