Protecting Free Speech is Just a Click Away!

<< < (2/3) > >>

Deborah:
At the very least, I would think it deserves its own forum so one doesn't have to bounce around between forums (Web Forum Hosting and THI) to keep up with this issue as it unfolds.

Unless I have misunderstood, the Chilling Effects site states that Ginger is not responsible for what Carey posted. Based on that, seems Ginger could ask to be removed or severed from the lawsuit, if that is Sue's only allegation against her.

The reference to www.casp leads to certain amendments to Pennsylvania's environmental laws.

Wouldn't rely on this specific statute to immunize free speech.

Ginger, Carey:

Strongly suggest that the invitation to create a "rebuttal webpage"  is a sucker's game.  Don't bite.

At best,  it is an opportunity to get you to tip your hand, strategy-wise.  At worst,  its an opportunity to induce you to come up with additional statements which will then be argued to be additional instances of  defamation ocurring after receiving notice of the pending case.

Brrr... I feel a chill in the room.

Ginger and Carey:  Click on the link below. I believe you will find the information quite useful to you.  For further info and links to case law, see the EFF website or email their attorneys for assistance.

Hmmm.  Not sure I agree but in the interests of avoiding a potential legal quagmire, a third party could create a website focused entirely on what's in the court record (public domain). No need to draw battle lines.  This is an issue that has attracted the attention of the national and international media. The WWF is a usergroup, not a commercialized teen-help-business.
