A girlfriend called me recently to go watch TV right away. She knows I work online and I often post in forums. It was on Dr. Phil of all shows.
It was about some site for women to talk about their ex and vent. Many posted pictures of their ex and bashed them. The female forum OWNER was being sued by some guy for something that a poster (one of his ex) had said about him.
The suit was on the basis that she (forum OWNER) had control to delete posts that were "inappropriate". Those that were left without being edited or deleted, damaged his reputation if anyone ever did a search for his name and it affected his career. Both sides made good arguments but it sounded like Dr. Phil and the audience were cheering more for the guy than the forum owner. The vast majority of the audience are women, so go figure...
It was still ongoing so I have no idea what will happen.
