Well, we got our first defamation threat based on one of our posts.
No, we won’t be discussing who sent it.
We’ve retained Kenneth P. White to handle it. You may know him from Popehat.com, where he:
- exposes frivolous legal threats to web sites,
- wins free speech cases for bloggers,
- explains California’s powerful anti-SLAPP statute that protects expression like ours,
- and arranges pro bono defense for online writers who can’t afford to defend themselves.
He knows how to deal with bogus legal threats. We’re confident he will demonstrate that the threat is without merit.
Please don’t speculate as you’ll possibly be wrong. We’ll discuss it when the time is right.
That’s all we have to say now.
