That's nice. But what keeps getting forgotten around here is it has to be proven that the person "defaming" someone KNOWS that's what they are doing. As long as that person "believes" they are writing the truth, it won't be prosecuted.
And, really, anyone who comes on this forum and gets offended because people are gossiping on a message board dedicated to gossip,well they can't be too bright.
Can a Blog Be Sued for Defamation; Isn't It All Free Speech? This is a knotty issue, but a short answer would be, generally, that a blog owner whose blog has published obnoxious materials can be held harmless while a blogger using the site can be liable. The Communications Decency Act of 1996 is a protector of blog owners. It states, in section 230, that it "precludes courts from entertaining claims that would place a computer service provider in a publisher's role." As to how the court sees blogs, in general, overall, the US Supreme Court has ruled that blogs are similar to news groups, saying "in the context of defamation law, the rights of the institutional media are no greater and no less than those enjoyed by other individuals and organizations engaged in the same activities."
1. A false and defamatory statement regarding another; 2. Unprivileged publication of the claim to a third party; 3. Rising, in the case of matters of public concern, to at least negligence by the publisher, or worse; and 4. Damages to the subject.
