Yeah, you can keep up-to-date on the Ritter case at aolnews.com
They unquestionably allowed the verbiage to be printed knowing full well the false suggestion of child pornography upon Free Republic was potentially very damaging to the website's conservative reputation. It was in its way a stealth attack on Free Republic and every conservative who posts here.
Jim should own them. Never mind, aol, has to be broke to pull this stunt. My vote is with an earlier post, on operatives.
Keep in mind le difference, oui?

I know we don’t need to tell you this, Jim, and you’ve probably already started exploring your options, but this is a very serious charge being leveled against this site. It is slanderous and malicious. Take them to court and demand a full apology, in addition to damages.
Surprisingly, there is actually a lawsuit that this Freeper can support! GO GET ‘EM, JIM!
Go get ‘em!
This is on Wiki:
Banning participants
Jim Robinson has also made it a point to ban fellow conservatives and others who don’t completely share his political mindset. [55]
(SNIP)
Despite this willingness to ban users, however, critics have charged that the lack of moderating on the site has allowed some users to advertise underage pornography: “One thing that apparently won’t result in a ban: using the site solely to boost Web ranking for your child porn site.”[58]
Yeah because, you know, that whole "freedom" thingy is just so hard to understand....
Quick! Get a lawyer!!! I feel a whiplash coming on! Sue AOL’s ass!!!
In ius voco spurius
We will not go silently into the night.
So who is really behind this...Soros? Who is willing to offer aol as a sacrifice? This really means that FR has become broadly respected and somebody feels their agenda is threatened.
Like 20 years worth!

Is than an Apple?
Is >that< an Apple?
I would say- Go after Wiki too. That crosses the line.
‘He is sort of an internet version of Jayson Blair.’
This is unfair to Blair. He wrote about real things — he just made up the interesting details.
Yea AOL sucked so bad i had to cancel a checking account to get them to stop charging me for something i hadn’t used in over 2 years.
Phone calls didn’t work.
Jim, perhaps you didn't know this, but the boys and I have been buying and storing barrels of whoop-a$$.
You let us know when you're in the mood for a keggar.
I can barely keep myself from putting on the toga as it is.
Anything they can do we can do better.... We can do anything better than them.... (sing it! lol)
Who wants to check how lax DU is?
