I wasn't in high school during the Internet era and we didn't have private journals made public. Even if we did, there's a difference between a local embarassment and an international embarassment.

It's facebook though, so the scope is limited. What we're seeing doesn't have the full names, so someone had the presence of mind to protect those involved before posting it where millions of people would see it.
Unless it gets picked up by a news site or blasted on the front page of Yahoo, it'll blow over.
ETA: Maybe the girls in my high school were worse than most, but there were several "major" events that threatened the social life of various girls such as pregnancies, STDs, drunk sex, publicizing of private information, etc. What this kid posted on facebook seems pretty tame to me.
