  • Reader comments on newspaper web site are NOT free speech

    A judge has ruled that an anonymous "reader comment" at the end of a newspaper column online is NOT protected free speech,
    and that the person posting it must be identified and he can be held accountable..!

    "Cook County Circuit Court Judge Jeffrey Lawrence ruled the (Chicago) Daily
    Herald and Comcast (the web server) must reveal the identity of a person who
    posted a comment on dailyherald.com.."

    "..the Daily Herald turned over the person's e-mail address and all of the other
    identifying information it had, including the man's e-mail, age, ZIP code and
    Internet Protocol (IP) address."


    so, I guess you have to watch what you post....BIG BROTHER will come after you...
