Thread: Article about City Council Meeting Deleted because of the Perspective

Apparently I have defamed ***** character, and thus a post I had made previously was removed - for mention of the Perspective Journalist. I had not intended to simply degrade the man as a writer, but relate my personal experiences with him. If I made any statements that might have made you consider the man somehow less of a journalist I apologize, I simply find it hard to perceive any endearing qualities in a character I've long found very uncharismatic and overall bureaucratic. But surely our new lords at the Perspective were right in petitioning the host of this wonderful forum to remove that post. I in no way wish to ruin the reputation of Kokomo's finest journalist.

I apologize,
Sincerely, Citizen X

To ****,
May your articles at the Perspective continue to be unbias and objective journalism we can all count on and may subjective journalists like myself continue to be persecuted.

I suprised that someone hasnt been sued on here before now for some of the posts I have read. Its just a matter of time before it happens here on NIK....

How could they find out who is really posting? I never post from the same IP address and it's never from my home or work.

The threat of the lawsuit (which is bullshit since we all have something called the 1st Amendment) was actually directed at the host of the website - not me in particular. Its amazing to me that the Perspective took unsaid reporter's credibility seriously enough to defend it with the threat of legal action for defamation. I guess he must rake in the dough or have powerful contacts like that one guy who thought Bolivia had a coastline.
