" If I were suspicious about how one is using advertising on their show and I had some questions about it, I would privately relay my questions through an email to the right people and keep it there."
She did. Cheryl clearly states in the video that she e-mail Zadi and Steve about it before recording. Cheryl made the vid knowing that Zadi and Steve knew about it. And the video wasn't just about Epic-Fu. Open discussion is healthy. We all keep saying things behind people's backs, and it's good to air the dirty laundry once in a while to keep the gossip and rumors from taking over, and to also resolve conflicts en masse and perhaps even learn something in the process. This all has been a good thing, and the way people have discussed has revealed more than the discussion itself. I've been pleasantly surprised by some, sorely disappointed in others.
